Sorry, B, I have to disagree. To me, it shed a lot of light on Daryl's character. And the progression of his friendship with Carol.

This is the remainder of season 10. I believe there's 2 more. The last one is "Here's Negan". It's about Negan and his wife (played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan's real wife).

Those parts, yes...progression and all that.
Though to be honest had we not had the time leap it wouldn't be at all necessary.
These aren't the parts I was talking about though...when the storyline moves forwards it's all good.
I just didn't see the need for "4 years ago, 3 years ago, 2 months after that, 8 months after that" and introducing another superfluous character just to say where he's been...THAT is the part that annoyed me.
I could have done a whole episode of Carol and Daryl, no problem.

OK, I got it now.

Last night watched 63 Up, Fright Club, and a little of The Voice.

Started watching through "Alias" again, but I was pretty tired.
Aside from a few fight scenes, gadgets and effects showing their age a little I still quite liked it. The first episode was pretty full-on.

Finally got around to watching "The Haunting Of Hill House" on Hammer's recommendation.

I thought it was excellent until the ending. I read a little about it afterwards and saw several negative reviews that talked about it being slow and one big monologue and that it had no suspense and wasn't even a horror tv show. I disagree with all of that. I thought the pacing was excellent, it was only the ending that I found somewhat irritating in that we didn't really resolve anything to do with the house itself.

A co-worker told me they watched it and also felt let down by the ending but it was otherwise excellent. She also told me the second season "The Haunting of Bly Manor" wasn't nearly as good. I'll probably still check it out to draw my own conclusions as I usually do but overall I didn't feel like I wasted my time with The Haunting Of Hill House and thought much of it was very well done.

I did. It was very much up my alley, just wish the end had explained the house more as to why it's special? What about all the other ghosts in the house? You don't really get much of a back story on the guy that follows Luke, or what makes the red room special? Why was Nell's ghost time travelling? etc.

Instead it's more like well the house isn't really evil, mom got some bad advice from an insane woman ghost but hey, anyone who dies in the house gets to stay together forever so we all get to be a happy ghost family together in death. There was just so much more that could have been included that was just ignored which is the frustrating part because it was so good up to that point. There was so much more story to explore.

I still have to watch The Host that you recommended. Hopefully I'll check that one out someday soon.

I agree with everything you said! I keep hoping someday they'll do another series and explain it all. With Bly House, I think I lasted 2 episodes. Maybe 3.
