Professor John R. Hutchinson @johnrhutchinson.bsky.social · 6hStarted watching "The Boroughs" (Netflix) sci-fi series. It's very polished, maybe even too polished, but having many scenes look like a set might be part of the plot. Anyway, cool show, top-tier veteran actors (Geena Davis!), great music, funny, and a neat monster (not a spoiler). 020
