While waiting for Bosch I watched Invincible and it is pretty good. You all should watch it. Yes it's a cartoon. Yes it's about superheroes. But it's for adults.

He’s got a great eye for detail and LA, in particular.
He was the LA Times crime beat writer for decades.

Yeah, I think he even has a book with some of his stories from that era.

He has the details down pat.

We do. Some of us "old dogs" are relentless in pursuing the truth, no matter how that shakes out. I think this series is the best cop show there is because it depicts the craziness, difficulties and politics of policework.

I was hoping you liked it. So often the folks that live a job for real, depicted on TV say it is laughably bad.

Any movie dad ever saw about the Air Force pilots had glaring errors to his eyes.

I see silly errors about professional photography all the time.

I see silly errors in the portrayal of playboys and men of leisure. They never get it right.

That's really just sad that someone has to go through that while doing his job in a courteous manner. Some people see her as a product of today's politics but I see her more as an example of rampant mental illness in society these days. Just sad.

Looks like season 7 will start on June 25th, and possible the 8 episodes (previously 10 per season) will release week by week instead of all at once.

Season 7 does start on the 25th. They're also doing a spinoff where Bosch quits the force and becomes a P.I. Coincidently the first episode starts shooting 6/25.
