Review Day

There are no major spoilers in these reviews.

Abbott Elementary, Season One:
Taking the Office formula to a public school in Philadelphia, this sitcom is fairly shallow but has pleasant, quirky characters to enjoy time with. Principal Coleman steals the show, while the former child star of Everybody Hates Chris spends most of the season doing his patented eyes-bugging-out routine before getting more complex near the end. On Hulu.

Final Grade: B-

Chronologic by Caravan Palace:
This electro-swing album has a lot of interesting timbres and colors. I bought it mainly for the first song, Miracle, which was Ian's infant anthem that I used for calming and napping.

Final Grade: B

Atlanta, Season Two:
The anthology format of this show really drags it down. The show jumps from vignette to vignette making it hard to care about the characters or have them grow. The concluding episodes then go all in on character development but the build-up to that point was so fragmented that it lacked weight. On Hulu.

Final Grade: C+

Tar (R):
Watching this movie is like hanging out with a musicologist for two and a half hours. It's overly talky but seems to be building up to something all the way up to the two hour mark. Then it blows that goodwill away and whimpers out. I regret investing as much time I as I did.

Final Grade: C-
