There are some good authors out there these days - not afraid of taking (let's call it) "realistic" stances on certain topics and mixing it up with historical references, a decent plot, etc.

Yeah I had that with a show I watched a few nights ago. Cursed, it's the King Arthur myth. But instead we're following the Lady of the Lake, before she gave the sword to Arthur. Like Arthur is a PoC now, with a lesbian sister.

what you think it is.

Cool! That sounds like a good twist to a classic story

Ahh, I was wondering about that gif even before you mentioned the show. I guess you really must like the show so far!

Indeed, it's an interesting take on the myth. And kind of funny.

I've been looking for shows and books with like a snarky sense of humor. Lol though I'm out of shows right now. Caught up on everything.

I hate it when that happens. And I can't stand taking two hours to find a new series to watch either. So what have you been watching?

That's some of the stuff we've been watching too. I wasn't real impressed with the new season of Lucifer though - it's really stretching its storyline ...

Oh dude I loved the new season, because it's pulling from much older myths than just Christianity. Like Lucifer was originally a Greek god that Rome stole and put into the bible. In his Greek myths he does in fact have a twin.

And I loved the Allstate guy being God.

@Another Movie Addict: Aaaah ok - now that alone explains a few things. It's a connection or two that we didn't make

Honestly most people won't really. The fact Lucifer was originally Phosphorus and a Titan, isn't widely known. A lot of these shows I've been appreciating because I love mythology and history.

Ok - hubby just came home, and it's time for me to disappear for a little bit to cook dinner. I shouldn't be away for more than a few minutes since it's a simple sheetpan meal tonight.

@Another Movie Addict: What do you think the next item will be - or who do you think it will represent?

@icedchai: Oh good! I'm glad you're still here. I didn't realize you were at work.

@Another Movie Addict: evidently my mythology is rustier than I thought! Now that you mention those things, it does all seem very familiar, but obviously, I didn't connect the dots.
