Last night CBS premiered Zoo, based on the novel by James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge. The story is simple: animals attack. I enjoyed the first episode, although I’m always wary that the cause of the aberrant behavior will be ascribed to Hollywood’s typical villains, big business, the military. I think the mystery would best be left unexplained. 13 episodes are scheduled. I hope the network sticks to that. The same had been planned for Stephen King’s Under the Dome, which proved so popular it is now in its third season. According to IMDb, James Patterson has written three of the episodes himself. I wonder how many viewers will be rooting for the animals to prevail.
The feud between NY Governor Andrew Cuomo and NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio has to be one of the more absurd in local political history. Both are dyed in the wool liberals, know-it-all bullies, who would be unlikely to win an election anywhere else, even other leftist enclaves, where the competition would be stiffer.
The floating book shop got off to a great start to start the second half of the year. My thanks to David, who trades from his home, who bought Exchanges. Thanks also to the other kind folks who bought books in English and Russian, especially the gentleman who took two large tomes: Chinese Natural Cures and Staying Young and Healthy for Dummies.
