Currently watching
These are ordered based on the nights I usually watch them.
I’ve watched Season 1 and am ready to dive into Season 2, just haven’t yet.
Banshee
So freaking happy that X-Men ‘97 is back, and I’m loving Season 2. I don’t know how things will end in these last few episodes, but I will be sad when they’re done and I have to wait for Season 3.
X-Men ’97
Sugar is back with Season 2 and its episodes are just as compelling as the first. Jin Ha, Raymond Lee, Tony Dalton, Sasha Calle, Laura Donnelly, and Shea Whigham have been excellent additions to the cast.
Sugar
Yeah, I don’t want to be a character who lives in Westeros at any point of history, but it sure is fun to watch. We’re getting to the end of Season 3, and as someone who hasn’t read the books, I’m definitely wondering who will win in the end.
House of the Dragon Season 3
I love this cast and I love the adventures they go on every week. (I’m also kinda sleepy, and don’t know why I chose now to update this list. But we’re here so I’ll try to wrap it up.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
Shows Watched
The shows I’ve finished, whether that’s because the season ended or a limited series.
I’ve been watching this since the original back door pilot on JAG. Sometimes it does get old, but I do like the cast.
NCIS (TV Series 2003
I’m sorry my dad isn’t around for this, because he absolutely would have loved it. The NCISes were shows we’d watch together.
Loved the finale. I’ll bring it back to my Currents list when the new season debuts.)
NCIS: Origins
Another fun location setting for the series. I really liked Todd Lasance when he was Julius Caesar on the Spartacus series, so it’s cool being able to watch him in something else.
NCIS: Sydney (TV Series 2023– )
(I’ll bring this show back to my currents list when it returns in the autumn.)
Kathy Bates is always so good, and everyone else in the cast stands up perfectly with her.
Matlock on CBS
1
I’ve been a fan of Carrie Preston’s since True Blood, and I’ve been a fan of Elsbeth Tascioni since she debuted on The Good Wife. I’m so glad that the Kings and CBS created an entire series focused on her, because she is the balance I need in this cu...
Elsbeth (TV Series 2024
Both teaser trailers for Spider-Noir dropped this morning, and I already knew it was on my list to watch, but now I’m definitely in! March 26th. And come fast enough!
“Spider-Noir” – Authentic Black & White Teaser Trailer | Prime Video
A show I’ve loved the past few years, since I discovered it. I keep forgetting when the new seasons start though 😚 Luckily this newest debuted yesterday!
(I’ll bring this show back to my currents list when it returns next season.)
Finding Your Roots
Going to miss this show so much.
The Boys
Just finished this series this week, and I hope there’s a Season 2. The animation was top level, and the battle sequences (especially ones involving lightsabers) were enthralling.
Maul - Shadow Lord
Season 2 just ended, and what a banger. I forgot to update my currents list until now, so this will stay for a few weeks. Can’t wait for Season 3.
Daredevil: Born Again Season 2
I can’t wait for the commentary tracks of this season. I love the Rockin’ Grandma crew, and I got emotional with the reveal.
Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat
I’ve (for the most part) loved both Star Trek Discovery and Strange New Worlds, so I’m waiting for this one. I think it starts today?
Sooo disappointed this wasn’t renewed.
Star Trek: Starfleet Academy
Season 4 Part 2 just dropped this morning, so that’s what I’ve been doing since I woke up. I’m definitely intrigued by where Season 5 will go, and when that will be released. Off I go to listen to the podcast, and then maybe get some things done.
Bridgerton
I still haven’t read the novellas, and maybe I never will. I don’t know. But that first season was incredible, I love these characters, and I’m excited for what’s ahead.
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
I absolutely loved Season 1, but it’s been ages since I watched. Might need to have a rewatch before Season 2 starts in a couple weeks. I also should probably read John LeCarré, as I’ve enjoyed several of his adaptations.
The Night Manager - Season 2
I’ve been looking forward to this since it was announced 2-3 years ago, and it was worth the wait. Can’t wait to see how else this plays out.
Spartacus: House of Ashur (TV Mini Series 2025– )
Such a great show. I’ve played a bit of one of the games, but the giant bugs make me squeamish 😝
Fallout | Prime Video
3
*I’ve watched this completely, but it deserves a lot of extra love* Disney Plus just dropped this show last week, and it’s one of my favorite things I’ve watched in a while. In this case, unlike other Disney / Marvel series, the entire season dump wo...
Marvel’s Wonder Man
Loved the books and Season 1. Season 2 just started today, and I’m ready to return to Camp Half-Blood.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians
Such a fun show, and it’s in Season 2. I love the fashion, the kooky characters, the murder mystery, and just the stellar writing and performances.
Palm Royale (TV Series 2024
2
Another great show in Taylor Sheridan’s universe. Now that Season 2 has ended, I think I’m finally coming around on some of these characters.
Landman (TV Series 2024
Definitely hyped to see how this whole thing ends. Luckily there are only a few weeks left to wait!
Stranger Things (TV Series 2016–2025)
I loved the IT films that the Muschiettis made, and am so glad that this series exists. It’s been an absolute ride, and can’t wait for the Season 1 finale. Incredible cast, and Bill Skarsgård bringing even more layers to this creepy ass clown is just...
IT: Welcome to Derry (TV Series 2025– )
I enjoyed Season 4 and think Liam Hemsworth was fine. He’s not a bad actor and yeah, he’s got a different style from Cavill, but the change wasn’t that big of a distraction.
The Witcher (TV Series 2019
Another fantastic series by Ken Burns, even if I felt like some details I wish had been covered were left out, like the Culper Spy Ring.
The American Revolution | All Episodes Now Streaming | Ken Burns
Watching this from a recommendation I got from a relative. So glad I did! But now to wait for Part 2 ☹️
Last Samurai Standing
Such a great show. I never really knew anything about Garfield, besides his assassination and how he could have survived had his surgeon not been an arrogant prick.
Death by Lightning
Solid start with Season 1, and I’m honestly glad my daily life has nothing to do with Texas (because I love my ocean breeze), cattle, or the drama that Beth, Rip, or basically any character on a Taylor Sheridan show ever endures. Another solid cast, ...
Dutton Ranch
Upcoming Shows
What I’m looking forward to.
I’m putting both the black-and-white and full color teaser trailers for Spider-Noir on the list, because I do intend to watch both. I’m super excited for the former, and I’m wondering how the latter will change how I watch. I will say the color was j...
“Spider-Noir” – True-Hue Full Color Teaser Trailer | Prime Video
Films I’m watching // have watched recently
Just bought this on Amazon Prime. One of my favorite Stephen King (as Richard Bachman) books. Wish I’d gone to see this in theaters, but I’ll take it anyway I can.
The Long Walk
Another Stephen King film on a list, surprise surprise. I haven’t read the book. But it’s an Edgar Wright film that has Lee Pace in it, and a whole bunch of other folks in the cast who I adore? Yes please. I’m just sad I didn’t get around to watching...
The Running Man (2025)
Stephen King (a 3rd on this list!), Tom Hiddleston, and Mike Flanagan? Still gutted I didn’t see this either time it was released in theaters. But it’s cued up and ready to go.
The Life of Chuck
It’s streaming on Peacock next month, but I’m finally giving in.
Watch Wicked: For Good (2025)
I saw the first one on release, and really wanted to get out for this last year. Oh well, at least I’m watching it now.
Stream Black Phone 2 (2025) | Peacock
Going to see this tomorrow in 70mm and I’m super excited. I read this back in high school, and again in college in a Mythology and Folklore class. Apologies to my professor, who assigned us a journal to write down any questions we had, and after a pa...
