re: Who is Martin Mull? • Netflix Documentary
Posted by flvelo12 on 10/20/26 at 5:47 am to Fewer Kilometers
What a fantastic story - had no idea Mull was renowned later in life as a painter. Loved the touching moments that were woven throughout as he aged and his relationships with his wife, daughter and friends. Great clips of his working life which allowed him to pursue his true passion. His phone call to change a flight was the icing on the cake. Great documentary - it was getting dusty there at the end.

Hope to get to this one. Always a favorite clip with Norm comes to mind...
It is definitely featured.
I enjoyed it, lots of great Norm clips
Tries to delve into his personal life but it seems he kept that close to his vest. Scenes with his mom and son were genuiine.
His loyalty to friends was noted, Letterman and Norm were intertwined throughout.
And Don Ohlmeyer is a lying sack of shite.

Kirk ( among others) has been all over this subject.
Brings up good points regarding democrats taking over and gutting everything "accomplished" so far. I still contend this should have been done by law, striking down the NFA restrictions, not by budgetary means.
But that would mean counting on Congress to do the right thing - won't ever hold my breath for that to occur.

Adam was such a wimp
As I watched it I had the same opinion. But by the end I admired him because I believe he was sincerely a good person despite his faults, he was just truly heartbroken beyond belief. Which, for good or bad, obviously affected his behavior tremendously. When Cathy died, he showed that he still loved her despite everything, earning a respect for the character that I originally didn't have.
Thank God he had Lee.
Such a great story, now it's time to read the novel , clearly to delve deeper into it, but mainly to get more of the Hamilton's story that others here have commented on.

but I think they sacrificed more endearing moments that would have elevated the entire series to giving Florence Pugh more screen time.
Episode 4 was a vanity project for Pugh. Most disappointing episode of the series (so far). Otherwise, the production value, acting and narrative are outstanding. Charles, Lee and Hamilton are favorite characters up to this point

Big Peak fan here.

that she didn't even mention City Park.
I looked it up. AI generated so take it with a grain of salt.
The BREC Commission met on September 24, 2026, to review the final master plan recommendations from Sasaki Associates for City-Brooks Community Park.
The commission did not vote to implement, approve, or deny the plan; instead, the meeting served to formally accept that the master plan document was completed and move the process forward.
Key details from the process include:
No Implementation Vote: BREC Vice Commission Chair Wade Evans clarified that the September 24 vote was solely to acknowledge the completion of the planning phase, not to commit to the proposed changes.
Plan Scope: The Sasaki proposal outlines a $100 million investment over 15–20 years, featuring a shortened golf course, expanded green space, new pathways, and a proposed nonprofit conservancy for governance.
Next Steps: BREC Superintendent Brooks Williams noted the commission can select specific elements of the plan rather than accepting it entirely. A final decision on implementation or specific components is not expected until October.
Public Input: The plan followed a final public meeting on September 17, where residents expressed concerns over costs and changes to the historic golf course.
Puff Piece on Peters who is a force of change to City Park.

I have one episode left to go. Like you said, Neagley is unlikeable, but the show and plot itself is pretty good. I’m liking Keno and the pretty secretary lady.
It's better than Season 4 of Reacher, which was stupidly awful.
I never had a prob with Neagley. She & Reacher worked well together (in the small doses we got).

I cannot recall a movie I was so disappointed in after being so excited for it beforehand. Maybe my expectations were too high.
