Catching up on Our Flag Means Death. The second season is very good.

A little late but just started Wheel of Time. As someone who never read the books I'm interested so far. It definitely pushes its budget sometimes but that's nothing that can't be overlooked.

I've also been catching up on Star Trek Strange New Worlds. I'm nearly done with the second season and it's some of my favorite Trek ever. I think it's good enough I'll go pick back up Discovery.

Discovery is almost more interesting as a meta-text at this point, though I think it takes more guff than it deserves. The tonal (and temporal) whiplash is a window into the creative process and audience feedback the churn of writers and shifting directives from Paramount.

Only one thing is constant: MICHAEL BURNHAM'S DRAMAWHISPERS!

I will definitely keep that in mind when I start it back up. It's a show that needs the right expectations going in.
