December 2023 Watch List
To qualify for my Watch List every month, the following has to be something that I've watched that's new to me. It doesn't necessarily have to be a current show, but it can't be reruns or rewatches of something I've already seen. So if I'm including it in this list, it means this month is the first time I've watched it. I'll put "DNF" (Did Not Finish) next to anything that I stopped watching and have no immediate plans to finish.

Movies
         *Bullet* Lion King II: Simba's Pride
         *Bullet* Migration

Television
         *Bullet* The Continental (Season 1)
         *Bullet* Halo (Season 1)
         *Bullet* Reacher (Season 2)

I didn't watch a lot of new stuff this month. Lots of Christmas movies that I've seen a bunch of times (National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation will always be a classic, and we've been really enjoying the animated movies Klaus and Scrooge: A Christmas Carol on Netflix in recent years). We've also been rewatching some favorite shows like the Newsroom, so there's just a few things I watched this month that are new to me. I enjoyed Migration (Illumination's newest movie) but I didn't think it was as good as the Sing or Minion/Despicable Me franchises.

The Continental was an interesting show... it was three 90-minute episodes, so essentially a trilogy of prequel movies to the John Wick franchise more than a television series. It was pretty good but I don't see myself rewatching it or anything. I'm five episodes in on the new season of Reacher which has been really great so far. It takes everything that was good about the first season and doubles down on it. As a fan of the book series, I was always going to be a fan of the show, but I'm really happy with how well they're adapting it for television.

TOP PICK: Reacher (Season 2)
