Amazon Prime has a great documentary on Mick Ronson called Beside Bowie. I loved it. I had no idea of his wide-ranging gig as a producer. Most of those jobs were driven by a need to get a paycheck. He never got any money from the Ziggy years, despite being a primary architect of the music.
not the top program i like, but watching See No Evil on ID is the creepiest show. You see people doing things, knowing that they are going to be murdered. In one I just saw, you see this guy walking and these three guys turn and start following him and setting up an ambush.

Needless to say I'm a big fan of Netflix's Disjointed w/Kathy Bates.

Haven't seen it mentioned, yet, so I will: saw a commercial during the Olympics for the second season of Jessica Jones on Netflix, coming in March.

I blame Wynton, what was the question?
There are only 10 types of people in the World, those who understand binary and those that don't.
I for one cannot wait for the oh so ridiculously over the top, next season of Ash vs The Evil Dead tonight.
Also I'm hesitant, but am going to stick with The Walking Dead

Also finished up Altered Carbon which I thought was fun. Nothing special as for me it started better than it finished. Pretty cool though.

Interestingly, at the same time (currently in rotation), AXS TV has a 90 minute doc written and directed by Terry Kath's daughter Michelle about the beginnings (no pun intended) of the band from her dad's (through her mom's) perspective.
Both Guercio and Cetera, who declined to be interviewed for the Netflix doc, didn't refuse Michelle.
I also found out for the first time in her doc that her mother subsequently married her step-father (one Kiefer Sutherland) years after Terry's death (which everyone interviewed in BOTH docs says was an immature, stupid accident & not suicide). Kiefer is in it toasting Terry's memory at a family gathering.

Damn, I erased it and tried to find it on again by scrolling through the AXS channel schedule for 2 weeks into the future & didn't see it on again, Scott.

Thank you, sir. From that link, it's called "Terry Kath Experience : A Daughter's Journey"
Music isn't about chops, or even about talent - it's about sound and the way that sound communicates to people. Mike Keneally
I watched the Chicago documentary last night. I really knew almost nothing about the band. Seemed like a strange documentary to me. It all started out talking about how they had multiple songwriters, they were democratic, and like brothers. It ends up with 4 original guys left who are like (essentially) "yeah, brotherhood, man". But it seems like some nasty business went down over the years. It probably had to happen one way or another for them to continue and be profitable.
David Foster seems to have a bit of ego, lol.
Maybe I misunderstood, but it seemed weird that Danny S. (after all those years) suddenly wasn't good enough to play to a click and at that same point in the doc they made a point of saying he was too overbearing or something during the shows with drum solos, etc. Then cut to the new guy doing....a drum solo.

I finally managed to get all caught up with The Walking Dead, so even though it kind of sucks, I'm going to watch the 2nd half of the 8th season. Missed the first episode of that though, so have to watchit.
Where the hell is season two of Westworld?
EDIT: Oh, I see they advertised during the superbowl - April 22. Cool.
