Storyline

Characters

Honesty

Truthful, honest and brutal

Afterlife Season 2 continued to follow the story of Tony, a brutal but honest character who is trying to become a better friends to those around him, whilst still struggling with the immense grief of losing his wife. Although maintaining his brutal honesty and hard shell, you see this character develop more and more into a more kindhearted, supportive and better person whilst still battling with the loss of his wife. We also see how he mentors a new aspiring journalist, and tries to brighten up what essentially isn't the greatest job/career choice for her. We see how each one of his friends are battling their own problems and how he manages to finally face his own, in order to help others. With the loss of his wife, the potential loss of his job and dealing with the loss of his father twice (due to dementia and then passing away) - we see the reality of loss and stigma around mental health, rather than falsely painting the issues in the programme to be positive, we view the harsh reality of everyday life. It is refreshing to see the reality and harshness of issues such loss, grief, addiction, loss etc.

This was pretty good. I've always wanted to read Sherlock Holmes and this one sounded interesting and different so I thought, why not? It was a good mystery because I really had no clue who was behind everything although I did think the hound was more fantasy than reality. It's crazy the extremes people will go to when money us involved

Truth or fiction??

Contains spoilers, click to show

Found this series very enjoyable - maybe a bit too close to possible reality. The main storyline is gripping, and so are the subplots. The ending made me wonder if Grace is likely to join forces with Hicks and Renko. Presuming - hoping - there will be a second series.

Watched a movie on Hulu called "I Am Alone". An "infected zombie" style movie. The acting was weak and the effects were, too. Cinematography was just, ok. Done like it was on a survival reality show but bounced back and forth between that and a survivor being interviewed by gvmt type scientist in a closed room. Was pretty boring. Not worth a watch.
