For All Mankind, although there’s lot of fuck ups too.

My problem with the episode was that it was both slow yet not. It introduced and told a 20 year story in 45 minutes in slowly paced snippets. I could never get into it because of how much it jumps (by necessity). For me it took away from the momentum of the main story with Joel as I am totally new to this world and am still getting into it. But the acting was top notch and I liked the relationship as well as its development and arch. But for a series that was just two episodes in and someone not familiar with the game it was way too soon to take a detour like that for me.

Nowhere Man (1995). It was ahead of its time in a lot of ways with the mystery and serialized story. Just one season and it got cancelled.

Every year Directlabs sends me an email when their Men's health screening is on sale for $99 bucks and I always do it. It's good for peace of mind but also could be useful baselines as I age.
