Halo is from Paramount+ & season 2 is ongoing. He finds it significantly better than season 1, which in turn was way better than you had any right to expect for a TV series made from a game franchise. Yochanan reviewed 'The Walking Dead' as it has a lot of episodes & he has seen most of it now & he likes it, but does not love it. He recognizes a lot of the actors as having been in other sf shows we adjourned at 8:34pm and the rumor of the week was = 'Time is dead, ask how I know' -- ******************* She/whispered/'Oh/my/goodness/what/are/all/these/squirrels/doing/here?' melc...@gmail.com *******************
