When Landman premiered on Paramount+ in November 2024, critics generally liked it, though it took viewers a little while to get into. While the first season wasn’t perfect, it showed promise and could become one of the top modern Western shows on TV.
The show could have been enjoyable if it embraced its over-the-top nature and everyone committed to a clear vision. Instead, it feels confused – the acting is inconsistent, as if the performers are trying out different interpretations of the show, and the storylines are weak. Cases that should take considerable time are resolved incredibly quickly – faster than it takes for nail polish to dry, in one instance. One plot involves a wife falling for the woman her husband hires for a threesome, only for her to receive a massive $210 million settlement moments later thanks to incriminating video evidence. (The details are shockingly explicit, and frankly, a reason to skip the show.)
Boromir famously said it was impossible to simply walk into Mordor, but it turns out you can – in a video game. A dedicated player created a detailed route in the game, and it takes about 10 hours to complete. It’s surprisingly straightforward, once you have the map!
Thanks to CryptoQuant’s SSR (Stablecoin Supply Ratio), something resembling a meaningful pattern is surfacing. When SSR’s numbingly precise metric lands within the 13-14 range, it’s akin to a galactic bingo. This cryptic ratio – effectively a juxtaposition of Bitcoin’s market cap with the world’s hidden stash of stablecoins – often signals some serious dry powder is hoarding beneath the surface like pirates burying treasure. And when it drops, it’s not just washing its bits, but prepping for another big bash with Bitcoin as the guest of honor.
They put it in the “Consumer & Culture” sector, alongside… Dogecoin. 🤦♀️ Honestly, it’s breathtaking. Apparently, it’s about “community” and “entertainment”. Right. Because investing your life savings in a meme coin is a healthy hobby. It’s practically a form of performance art.
Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to the mysterious phenomenon of Zcash (ZEC) and its “unexpected” 710% rally! Are we witnessing a paradigm shift in crypto culture or merely a mirage while Bitcoin enjoys its perfect Instagram post? The latest hush-hush report by Galaxy Research whispers of cypherpunk ideals that persist like millennials clinging to vinyl records.
Allura is currently dealing with relationship problems that feel like a battle. Each of her friends experiences love in a way that reflects their jobs. Liberty, a divorce lawyer, predictably avoids commitment – we see her reject a proposal from her boyfriend even though he’s asking for things to move slowly. Dina offers a contrast; she’s happily married to Ed O’Neill’s character, but is struggling to support him and maintain their connection as he deals with illness. Emerald, on the other hand, doesn’t need a partner, choosing to have triplets through a sperm donor and build the family she wants independently.
According to the Alinea Insight newsletter by Rhys Elliott, the top-selling PlayStation 5 games projected for October 2025 are Battlefield 6, EA Sports FC 26, and Ghost of Yotei, with estimated sales of 3.2 million, 3 million, and 2.7 million units, respectively. These three titles are expected to sell almost 9 million copies combined. Elliott used these figures to counter the idea that consoles are becoming obsolete, stating that while Xbox may be struggling, it’s premature to declare console gaming as a whole is failing.
Despite samurai films being incredibly popular in Japan, Netflix hasn’t really focused on them. While they’ve offered some anime and one live-action film, Blade of the 47 Ronin, that film feels more Western than traditionally Japanese. Netflix is missing iconic samurai movies like Twilight Samurai and 13 Assassins, and hasn’t explored classics such as Seven Samurai or The Lone Wolf and Cub.
There’s a growing trend in TV where shows are based on real-life events, but instead of focusing on negativity, they offer uplifting and inspiring stories. These programs highlight incredible true stories, showcase human creativity, and celebrate everyday heroes you might not read about in the news, ultimately leaving viewers feeling more hopeful and connected.
