I am a huge Haley Lu Richardson fan. She stars in one of my all-time favorite films, Columbus, which hopefully is streamable. John Cho co-stars and it’s a slow character study film but one like I’ve never seen. Directed by Kogonada, who directed Pachinko. She is also excellent in the film, Support the Girls. And of course she is great in Edge of Seventeen.

Ooh. Adding these to my watch list. Thanks Steve. Yeah, she's just a treat to watch. She's like a "reluctant" lead, if this makes sense, which is the highest compliment in my book and a litmus test for excelling in any role.

Can’t wait to hear what you think!

We’re currently rewatching The Wire with our son - just finished season 2. It’s so good.

We also just finished The Lincoln Lawyer, and are making our way through Only Murders In the Building.

Bryan has been watching Suits without me.

Thanks for sharing Jen. I really enjoy OMITB. Physical and The Morning Show are also series I’m watching. TMS is a total guilty pleasure “best bad show” and Physical needed to end 2 episodes back which I’m disheartened to admit because I really loved this show big time. I’m hoping with the last episode it redeems itself! I hold out hope. Lincoln Lawyer my husband watched. And Bryan and everyone else in America is watching “Suits”! Is it the Meaghan Markle effect?

We’re watching TMS too! I don’t know about Suits, but every time the kids have friends over they’re like, “Cool! I didn’t know you were into Suits!” So he’s apparently hip now. 🤣

I love that Bryan is feeling the “Suits” ❤️ and part of a the cool crew. I wouldn’t be doing this newsletter justice if I didn’t mention that Sex Education is back on Netflix! We also watch “Welcome to Wrexham” - Season 1 was so much fun. It’s the docu-reality series with Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney where they start a football (soccer) team in Wales
