Interesting! My partner hated it, but I quite liked it. I had no idea it was a thing though.
The new theme is more akin to a theme song made by Sunju Hargun or Komodo Kolektif, definitely in keeping with the new setting.

finally watched the venture brothers movie. it’s delightful. the rob base “it takes two” scene had me dying.
for my money, the venture brothers is the best animated series of all time. the characters, the world building, the voices, the art - shit, the theme song (jim thirlwell!). it’s well worth investing some time with.

Vietnam. The War That Changed America on Apple TV
Really good 6 part documentary with a lot of amazing footage. Good interviews with survivors, soliders and civilians and looks at how it changed the psyche of the American people

New season of Will Trent is going strong for those that like inoffensive, slightly quirky serials.
We started watching Severance last night. My wife who swears extremely rarely said it was a ‘head fuck’

Ken Burns stuff is great. This was very powerful.

The Mrs has sprung for Now so we are devouring Jackal, Penguin (both excellent) and new White Lotus (too soon to say).
Particularly enjoying the bond-style credits on Jackal. Can any type nerds identify the nice 70s-style typeface they use for the titles?

Loved Amandaland. Might’ve actually preferred it to motherland by the end. Now quickly moving though slow horses, into series 3 now, great stuff.

This was really interesting, some stories I had not heard before, especially Buang-Ly getting the US to throw all their helicopters overboard the aircraft carrier so he could land with his family! incredible

Yes, the amount of footage they used I’d never seen before was amazing and some of it looked like it could have been filmed yesterday. And pushing those Hueys off the aircraft carrier was just astonishing.
Its not as comprehensive or as deep as the Ken Burns documentary but an excellent companion piece nonetheless
