Stuckmann’s spoiler-free review.

Island?

You definitely don’t watch Yellowstone for good writing. That’s for sure. It’s fun though. And the locations are gorgeous (think it’s mostly filmed in Utah). Costner and Kelly Reilly are both pretty good in it, too.

Sure, and it is Mahomes at the end of the day, but you’d still obviously rather be up by 4 in that situation. Especially with the Chiefs being bad in the red zone for much of the game.

The missed xtra point was a killer, too.

It’s still just Brady and Burrow. I didn’t want Brock Purdy joining the club.

Joseph Lee Burrow still the only active QB to beat Pat in the playoffs.

Brutal start for Trent Williams.

Saloum. A Senegalese-French crime/horror thriller that feels a bit like a western with supernatural elements. This movie rocks. The 3rd act wasn’t quite as strong as the fantastic first 2/3, but I really dug this one overall.

Watched the Japanese horror/comedy One Cut of the Dead. What an absolute gem of a little film. It’s impossible to describe why it’s so good without spoiling it, but I can’t recommend it enough.

Episode 5 was pretty intense.

Episode 5 drops Friday because of the Super Bowl.

Great use of music, too. Some of the songs they picked to end the episodes were just perfect.

Yeah, she was wearing a Minnesota Vikings hoodie in one scene now that you mention it.

Still only two QB’s that have beaten Mahomes in the playoffs - Tom Brady and Joe Burrow.

I loved Life’s Too Short. I’ve rewatched it a few times and it absolutely cracks me up.

He’s only 14 wins behind Shula for the record. I’m sure that’s a big part of it.

Umm…no. That would be Anthony Munoz. And it’s not particularly close. Munoz was a 9x 1st team All-Pro at LT.

There was no rain in SF when the Bengals beat them. Burrow had his best game of the season.

Start one. I'm digging this season so far, but I’m a sucker for horror stuff with a snowy setting.

I thought John Wick 4 was great. I liked both Caine and Mr. Nobody a lot, and the “dragon’s breath” scene was definitely memorable for me. That sequence alone was worth the price of admission.

A pair of great scenes to close out the season. Lorraine and Roy at the prison, and then Dot/Munch at the dinner table. My only question is who the hell eats biscuits with chili?

Baker having more playoff wins than Watson is objectively hilarious.

Last year’s WC was much better. 4/6 were one score games.

These playoffs have sucked so far. We’ve only had one good game.
