What Did You Watch? 2024-12-23 (Monday)

Yesterday, I ran errands, and took it easy. So I actually didn't do much, except finish up S1 of "Cross", though I did get through a movie:
soaps: DOOL - Mon's ep. Leo and Rafe interrogate Hattie, and seem to ascertain that she isn't the new Lady Whistleblower; later, at the cop shop, Belle lawyers up Hattie before Jada can question her, but it seems likely Hattie is not behind the "poisoned" cupcakes either. Jada offers JJ his job back, before he and NuGabi go out on a date. It seems like Kristin isn't the one sabotaging Brady and Ava - if it's not Kristen, it can only mean that daughter Rachel is the one doing it.
Cross (Prime) - Last 4 episodes of season #1 (which is only 8 ep's long).
    Including naked nudity from Alona Tal!!... Which is actually kind of weird - Tal's a mom now. I wouldn't do naked nudity as an actress if I was a mom...
    Sidenote: This may be set in Washington, DC, but it was so clearly filmed in Canada, that it's not even funny - not only is Jennifer Wigmore in the main cast (as the police chief), with Sharon Taylor in a important role, but Jessica Clement and Karen Robinson pop up in a key supporting role, and Kristin Booth and Siobhan Murphy also appear.
    Anyway, this was mostly good stuff, with episode #5 (Cross goes to the the richie-rich serial killer's birthday for some cat-and-mouse action) being probably the best of the lot.
    The season actually comprises two main storylines - the serial killer, and Cross's "stalker" - so I was a little surprised when the former storyline pretty much wraps up in episode #1.7.
    That leaves the "stalker" storyline for episode #1.8. And I can't say I was all that thrilled with how this one resolved, as the culprit wasn't whom I was expecting (so I guess they succeeded in the "surprise" department), and I didn't buy their motivation for such a long-term project.
    There is a mid-credits scene in ep. #1.8 with Alona Tal that hints at something, but isn't clear what it's hinting at.
The Inheritance (Hulu) - What's really interesting about this 2024 film is that it was originally produced, in 2022, *for Netflix*. But, for whatever reason, Netflix dropped this film (and another, as yet unreleased film) in early 2023 - so it took another almost 2 years for this one to be released.
    Starring Bob Gunton! as the patriarch of a zillionaire family who calls his 4 children (and one daughter-in-law) - Rachel Nichols(!), David Walton, Peyton List the Younger, and Austin Stowell and Briana Middleton (as the daughter-in-law) - home for his 75th birthday to "protect" the old man from a "threat" on his life. So he locks them all in the mansion with him, threatening to remove their inheritance, unless they stay.
    It's not giving too much away in saying the "threat" is a "woo-woo" supernatural threat, through the kids don't immediately realize this.
    This was OK, I guess (I enjoyed Gunton, and Peyton List is amusing in a too small part), though I didn't enjoy it as much as the somewhat similar "The Invitation" with Nathalie Emmanuel.
