🎬 Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Season 3, Episodes 1–2 ⭐⭐⭐½ No spoilers!
I liked it overall, but I wasn’t thrilled that Season 2 ended on a two-part episode. 🎬
🎬 Tracker – Season 1, Episode 12 ⭐⭐⭐½ No spoilers!
This continues to be a solid series with a compelling storyline. Justin does a great job, along with his co-stars. 🎬
From Amazon Prime:
🎬 The Chosen – Season 5, Episodes 6–8 (Season Finale) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “No spoilers” doesn’t quite apply here—it’s based on the Bible.
This show continues to amaze me. The acting is phenomenal, and what a way to end the season. I can’t wait for the next—but I’m glad I already know how it ends. 🎬
🎬 The Day of the Jackal – Season 1, Episodes 4–10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
No spoilers!
I finished the first season, and all I have to say is: Bravo.
There was action, mystery, intrigue—and more action. Some parts felt wildly exaggerated; I can’t imagine all of it happening outside the realm of TV drama. But other parts? Absolutely plausible—though more likely orchestrated by nation-states than rogue, non-state actors.
I hope they make a second season—there's definitely room for it. Maybe even a third. But no more than that.
As I said in a previous post, when it comes to TV, the British really know what they’re doing. 🎬

🎬 The Chosen – Season 5, Episodes 2–5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Not much to say other than: Wow.
It’s been a great season so far—and with such incredible source material, how could it not be? 😊
Fantastic true story, outstanding acting.
Best series EVER. 🎬
🎬 The Day of the Jackal – Season 1, Episodes 1–3 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
No spoilers!
I’ve been under the weather this week—caught a summer cold and wrote about it over at mitchelltribe.com. Since I’ve been off work since Wednesday and mostly napping, I dove into a couple of series. This one’s on Peacock, and since I’m canceling the service in July, I’ve got to finish it before then.
That said—this show is really good. I’ve watched the first three episodes, and I have to say: the English seriously know how to make television. Right now, it's better than 98% of what’s coming out of the U.S.—with one exception I'll get to next. Eddie Redmayne is excellent in this, and all the characters are genuinely interesting. 🎬
From Prime Video:
🎬 The Chosen – Season 5, Episode 1 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“No spoilers” doesn’t quite apply here—after all, it's based on the Bible.
This season is diving into what I’d call fulfillment, sacrifice, and redemption. The casting is spot-on, and while I know not every detail is historically or biblically precise, the spirit and themes are respectfully portrayed. The creators, actors, and entire team are doing an outstanding job, and this is currently my favorite show. I’m glad they’re aiming for seven seasons—I’m especially curious how they’ll depict their take on Revelations. 🎬
