The Boroughs on Netflix

On E4. So far so good

Starting finale

On episode 4, it’s definitely a show with a lot of mystery. It does seem to be shaping up to be one of those shows where most mysteries will remain mysterious, unfortunately.

The security guy with the beard reminds me of Hopper. I guess the Duffers have a type.

Seems like it might be pretty good. Maybe Stranger Things but with old people.

The head of security was a Chief Hopper cut/paste.

Finished it up last night. Pretty good show.

At first I thought it was kind of weird to me that they made the Geena Davis character out to be like the younger of the older people at the Boroughs. Or, I took it as that as she said she moved their with her parent and then just stayed when they died.

She is 70. But I didn't realize Molina, Woodard, and Pullman are all like 2-3 years older than that. Making me feel old that all these popular actors we grew up watching are basically the Golden Girls now.

I was also thinking about something unusual with this show. Kind of groundbreaking in this day and age. The black guy's wife cheated on him with a white guy. That is certainly different.

Loved the series.

Also, Geena davis sounded like her dentures were about to fall out of her mouth the whole show.
