Okay wow, the last couple of days of my life have been spent watching a lot of television. Sneaky Pete was released on amazon and The Young Pope premiered last night. They are both so good. I instantly became addicted to Sneaky Pete and had to stop myself from watching all of the episodes in one night. I am currently on episode three and am trying to string myself along as long as possible but it’s probably not going to work out. Oh boy, I’m weak when it comes to a great show.

      The opening sequence of The Young Pope was amazing. I haven’t ever really seen anything like it. So slow and linear, yet highly imaginative and very explanatory. The thing I am most disappointed in about this show is that it wasn’t all released at once because I need to know what is gong to happen next and waiting a week just simply doesn’t seem possible. But alas I have to wait and so I will. But the writing for this show just kills it. A subject that is often glazed over but hardly ever shone a light on is now easy to understand, exciting, riveting and entertaining. If you are wondering if this is a good investment or not I would highly suggest this show because so far, it is pretty genius.

      Which is what brings me to Sneaky Pete. This show is truly some of the best television I have seen in a very long time. If you are looking for a show to watch for the writing, this is the show. The pilot is the perfect example of the twists and turns it takes to have an amazing pilot. It follows the layout perfectly while still managing to somehow break all of the rules. There is nothing more exciting for me to watch than excellent writing with acting so spot on that nothing shakes your knowledge that this world is real and you are fully involved in it. For me, Sneaky Pete is something that really satisfies this need in me. Bryan Cranston is a completely genius and this show is a serious tribute to that genius.

      Be a part of all of the amazing art going on around you and on television right now and keep up with all of the shows and movies that are happening. It is important as an actor that you keep up with the best of the best in your craft and that you know what is going on. Why shows are winning awards, and why they deserve them is something you should be able to answer because it’s something you should want to achieve! So keep watching and keep yourself up to date with everything going on in your career.
