Started watching Utopia on Amazon. It's a pretty good thriller.
The premise is that someone hid predictions of major disease outbreaks in a comic book and the manuscript for the sequel that reveals how to stop the final disease which will wipe out humanity is found by a pair of unlucky newly weds who try to auction it off to raise money to start a family. Wild levels of mass murder, violence and chaos follow close behind.
It's a real meat grinder. I have picked out a few plot spoilers in the foreshadowing, one meaningful one in particular that most younger viewers wouldn't recognize because they don't have the right matching set of scars. HINT.

I watched the move Glass.
Not really a binge experience but it's a top tier winner from beginning to end. There are few movies that I think were flawlessly executed but this is one. It was a better super hero than anything else I've seen since the Heath Ledger joker Batman and they did it on a tiny fraction of the production cost and without all the convoluted nonsense.
It's a winner.

I just really couldn't help but laugh about the new CW superhero TV show.
STARGIRL: The story of a teenage cheerleader and her magic stripper pole. I wish I was making this up. I've seen enough dancing girls to know her fight moves are going to be stripper based. There's only so much a girl can do with a magic pole.

Oh, that makes more sense. Castle Rock, duh, of course he is (or at least a derivative or minion). I should probably watch that show, sometime.

Oh, I was talking about "the Kid" on Castle Rock. Sorry, I'm as clear as mud about half the time.

Maybe even Flagg, himself? 3 sides of the same coin.
You're talking about the younger brother, yes? It's been so long that I don't remember how things ended up with him and his older brother and Sylar. There was definitely a lot of play into who was good and who was bad, which was very interesting. All three of them could have been considered righteous, at some point.
Whatever Flagg's iteration was, he was always evil. I think that separates the character enough to not be part of this Kring thing, but there are always homages and stuff at a higher level, so maybe that's part of the charm.
LOL King, Kring...

Heroes Season 1 was great. After that, they got lost in a never ending branching timeline, time travel plot. After S1 they couldn't seem to nail down the direction they wanted to take the characters or plot. They leaned way too heavily on deus ex machina and sometimes just left plot lines dangling with no good resolution and huge alterations in character personalities. Honestly, it all started to feel a little schizophrenic.
That being said, I will take your notes into consideration while I re-watch.
