Showtime had a free preview for a few days and I caught up on The Chi. The Chi, along with Pose, has some of the best LGBTQ+ representation I’ve seen on the small screen. Also caught up with City on a Hill, it’s okay, but nothing to write home about. Though Kevin Bacon is better since he dropped the scratchy voice—that didn’t work at all.

I also caught a couple episodes of George and Tammy. The acting is superb. Can’t turn away when Michael Shannon (playing George Jones) is on the screen. And Jessica Shastain (playing Tammy) is just as good. This series will certainly receive some awards.

From Showtime’s YouTube page: Starring Oscar winner Jessica Chastain (The Eyes of Tammy Faye) and Oscar nominee Michael Shannon (Bullet Train), GEORGE & TAMMY chronicles the country music power couple, Tammy Wynette and George Jones, whose complicated-but-enduring relationship inspired some of the most iconic music of all time. Remembered as the “First Lady of Country Music,” Wynette’s most successful song “Stand by Your Man” remains one of the most iconic and best-selling country singles by a female artist. Known for his once-in-a-lifetime voice, George Jones’ song “He Stopped Loving Her Today,” is still widely called the greatest country song of all time. With over 30 number-one country songs between them, including duets “We’re Gonna Hold On,” “Golden Ring” and “Near You,” George and Tammy’s legacy, both musically and romantically, remains one of the greatest love stories ever told.
