Piercing Ken Thoughts: Don’t judge me but the only thing I’ve seen from this whole list of winners is “The Mandalorian”. So kudos to all the shows that have won. Since I have Netflix and a Disney+ subscription I will be trying to see some of the stuff that was on Netflix. What did you think of the rundown? Looks like “Schitt’s Creek” and “The Crown” are the series to get behind. Chime in down below with your own thoughts and I will see you next time.
