I was pleasantly surprised to see Harry Hamlin, and we&#8217;ve consistently enjoyed Alexandra Daddario in everything we&#8217;ve seen her in.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d seen good things about the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themoviedb.org\/tv\/128098-interview-with-the-vampire\"><em>Interview<\/em><\/a> show, but even with that, I was <em>really<\/em> impressed. I&#8217;m really enjoying the way they&#8217;ve updated it, keeping the bones of the story while making a lot of fascinating updates\u2026and ditching anything remotely resembling subtext.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.themoviedb.org\/tv\/77236-a-discovery-of-witches\"><em>A Discovery of Witches<\/em><\/a> we knew nothing about and grabbed on a whim, but it sucked us right in. Fun take on creatures, lots of political maneuvering, and we really liked the magical effects. Good enough that we now have the book trilogy on our to-read shelves.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;d watched S1 of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themoviedb.org\/tv\/86848-evil\"><em>Evil<\/em><\/a>, but didn&#8217;t keep up with it, so decided to just restart from the beginning. This show is a lot of fun, the daughters are <em>so<\/em> adorable, and Leland is <em>such<\/em> a great creep. It&#8217;s a perfect balance of creepy and really funny.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quick notes on a recent spookybinge on Netflix: The Mayfair Witches, Interview With the Vampire, A Discovery of Witches, and Evil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2037],"tags":[6000,6001,4157,5999],"class_list":["post-51581","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-tv-and-films","tag-a-discovery-of-witches","tag-evil","tag-interview-with-the-vampire","tag-mayfair-witches"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51581","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51581"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51581\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":52381,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51581\/revisions\/52381"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51581"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
