    Forgot about that one. I watched last season Hulu. Now Hulu wants me to connect through my "local pay TV providers", it keeps getting worse - cannot seem to get around paying Comcast, AT&T, Time Warner, Verizon money to watch TV any more. Well, I don't pay so there is no watching for me. Perhaps in a few weeks or month or years they will free up episodes.

    Not really SciFi but did enjoy the series premier the other night of "Halt & Catch Fire"
    Set in 1980s," story about men who dared challenge IBM's hold on the PC market. Bringing clone PCs to the public.
    Great characters, can't wait for next episode.

    Parts Per Billion


    Parts per billion of a deadly pathogen in the atmosphere that travels from the Middle East across Europe and the ocean until reaching the Eastern Seaboard and spreading inland. Would the "Parts per billion in the air" remain at killer levels as it crossed the Atlantic, or would it disburse and weaken? Then again, I am unsure if the film showed a longer time to die along the Eastern Seaboard than it took in the Middle East and later Europe.

    The film has a stellar cast, acting is good. It is slow moving, and has flashbacks within flashbacks of flashbacks making it difficult at times to follow. If you are looking for a normal Hollywood end of the world type of film, this is not it. Again, stellar cast delivers. Here is what I took away from the film: Pathogens are killers, coal air-filters may not work. Have oxygen tanks on hand to last for eight days. Bored at times, I did watch parts of the film in fast forward.

    Again, if looking for end of the world action film - Parts Per Billion is not it. If looking for a character driven storyline, maybe. If the local video rental store near you moves new releases to a dollar section after a couple of months, I would suggest waiting. That way, if you do not like the film it is not a great loss.

    Looks like a reboot of the Keanu Reeves movie "Constantine", in serial/TV series form.
