Forget Downton Abbey, Poldark on PBS rules!

I have to admit I haven't seen any of Downton Abbey yet, but I think that
Poldark has to be one of the best shows on television right now. The
first season was fantastic and I'm not disappointed at all with season 2.
All of the show's returning characters continue to do a fine job, but I
have to say that if Eleanor Tomlinson's performance as Demelza is
not nominated for best actress catagories this award season, then the
selection committee has no idea of what there doing!
Also, for current viewers of the show on PBS, if you decide to buy either
season on blu ray, you will be happy to know that there is a significant
picture quality upgrade over the actual television broadcast. However,
there are not enough extras on the discs, since PBS has already shown pre–season preview shows such as Inside Poldark and
Poldark Revealed. How come these featurettes can't be included?

Well alright, alright, alright !!!

It's pretty amazing how little known stories from our past history
have resulted in very entertaining movies. Last year we had
The Revenant and more recently we have Free State of Jones.
Of course The Revenant was an amazing film in so many ways
and a deserving academy award winner, but I was also fascinated
with the story presented here. It is filled with good cast performances
especially that of Matthew McConaughey. Focusing on the message
of what his character stood for and how it can relate to the world we
live in today, these themes are presented in this very entertaining film.
* P.S. I hope M.M. does more civil war period projects in the
future. He's got a perfect flair for these types of roles.
