THUNDER FORCE 🤮

THUNDER FORCE is a total waste of the acting and comedic skills of Melissa McCarthy and Octavia Spencer.

It had an interesting premise, middle aged super heroes, but could have ...would have ...should have are not how great, good or even fair movies are created.

It is a film that should just be hidden away where terrible movies are laid to rest and never spoken about again. Silence is golden.

THUNDER FORCE is available to not stream on Netflix.

REBEL S1 E1 Pilot 🤮

REBEL stars Katey Sagal, as the Erin Brockovich character, who is out to right every wrong in the world. At least that is how it felt after viewing the first episode. I was breathless, but not in a good way.

The ensemble is strong and the basic premise is great. Rid the world of greedy corporations. But it all got so jumbled with REBEL’S two former husbands, one current husband who may or may not be cheating, three adult children from each marriage, a lawyer boss grieving his wife and a kick-ass work partner. Whew! Each one of these characters also brought their own storyline into the mix.

REBEL is exhausting to watch. I am hoping the writers settle in soon and just pick one or two topics. Otherwise I will have to find another way to relax Thursday evenings.

REBEL is available to stream on ABC Television.

THIS IS US S5 E12 BOTH THINGS CAN COME TRUE 🤮

Good News! Randall is back. Bad News! Randall spends the entire episode listening. 😞

The theme of this episode is each character speaking their inner truth to their loved ones. Sadly, the most compelling part is treated simply as an afterthought. Audiences witness Randall in group therapy learning about “Ghost Kingdoms,” the world adopted kids create about their real parents. Instead of focusing on this heavy plot, we are stuck with Madison and Toby's champagne problems.

When Beth is struggling with her teenage daughter’s same-sex date, her mother advises, “It’s more than just letting go, you have to adjust. This is the part where you let go of what you thought would be and you adjust to what is.” I am having a hard time letting go of what I thought this show was, yet maybe it's time for me to adjust to it being a mediocre network soap opera.

It’s available to skip on Peacock and NBC.
