Tonight's Top Pick is the second season premiere of And Just Like That ..., because, for better or for worse, it at least has some buzz to it. I might have to start including highlights from my brother's commentary with these Thursday posts. If I remember right, he disliked Che but was overall tolerant towards Season One.
