I'm very excited about the Garfield miniseries. The casting is great, and the book it is based on is really good.

This looks like it's going to be an excellent series. "Destiny of the Republic" was a great read. Speaking of this, a trip to Garfield's memorial in Cleveland is a must-visit.

Jen and I binge watched all four parts of Death by Lightning last night. We both thoroughly enjoyed it. Even though Jen doesn’t really have an interest in the subject matter, she was invested it and we both agree the casting was superb. Nick Offerman as Chester Arthur was very well written and humorously acted. If you have Netflix and I highly recommend this period drama. It was much better than the Manhunt miniseries from last year.
