You Promised Me No More Lies

Okay, something of a shorter TV Jumble blog than usual but also one with some spoilers for upcoming series as well. 

911: Lone Star: There's not many episodes left to go with the first season on SkyLiving and so far, not too much has really happened. I mean, there was a moment where it seemed like Owen's leadership was a bit threatened by Judd's old pal, Billy but that quickly fizzled out and Michelle's ongoing search for her sister has given Carlos a story outside of TK but other than that, between the cases and a little more screen time for Mateo, it's felt fairly modest at this point. 

Schitt's Creek: It's six episodes into the first season and I'm liking the show but I haven't fallen into the hype compared to others. I can see why a lot of people love it and I do enjoy Moira's zaniness to offset Johnny being the more calmer of the pair while Alexis and David are amusing enough. The latter is more amusing with the grudging friendship with Stevie is quite endearing. Roland is still painfully unfunny but at least his wife and son are better characters to watch and Moira's vintage ad was pretty decent for a laugh too.

The Boys: I have finally finished up the first season and intend to start the second one later in the month. The second half of Season 1 was pretty strong with the Compound V revelation having quite the knock on effect along with the complicated animosity between Billy and Homelander getting even more complicated with Becca being very much alive and with a superpowered son. I've enjoyed Hughie's growing relationship with Starlight, the Frenchie/Kimiko connection as well character such as Mother's Milk and Maeve while finding the Deep's own comeuppance fascinating as well. Can't wait to see where the second season takes this crazy show.
