The LEGO Brick patent was signed 60 years ago today. My youngest memory of LEGO was receiving a set when I was 5 years old in 1979. I have looked and looked to find this set online to even get an image of it. With the set I could build an 18 wheeler truck. I know it was a truck cab and trailer and you could build many other things with it. I remember getting it and then going right to the cellar to play with it. I played with LEGO so much as a kid. I am glad that I kept that love for LEGO into adulthood.
Now I enjoy playing LEGO with the kids and also with Brian from Built from Bricks. We have a great time making LEGO related content each week, too. I’m looking forward to making many more videos. I’m also going to keep on building as often as I can. I have a bunch of MArvel sets that I need to start building soon. That includes the new Black Panther sets. I’ll be showing those off on my own site or maybe Built from Bricks, too.
Get ready to binge watch Netflix because if 2017 is any indication, 2018 is going to be a pretty incredible year from Netflix. Now, I do not know everything that is going to be on Netflix in 2018, new series, specials and movies are being announced all the time. But, because I am a Netflix Stream Team member I have access to see some of the things that are coming earlier than most. For 2018 Netflix has asked the Stream Team members to talk about what they are most looking forward to in 2018. I figured that I’d give a Top 10 list of what I am looking forward to. This past year I binged so many different series and shows that the first two items on the list that I am looking forward to are second seasons of shows that I really enjoyed.
Ozark Season 2 – It took me a while before I gave this show a chance even though I love Jason Bateman. I’ve been a fan ever since he was on Silver Spoons. I’m pretty sure I’ve watched almost everything that he’s ever done and in Ozark he not only acts but directs and he does a great job with it. Season 2 is set to return in 2018 and I am eagerly awaiting it.
Jessica Jones Season 2 – Set to return on March 8th this Marvel hero show is one of the better ones to have come out of the series of grittier shows highlighting more of Marvel’s somewhat grounded characters in Hell’s Kitchen, New York. Jessica is a smart-ass private investigator with super strength but she doesn’t want to use her powers or embrace the hero thing. We last saw Jessica in Marvel’s The Defenders and she was a bright spot in that series.
