    I know Keys from a Lifetime flick. But this is a series, and it's on
    Netflix, so, no.

    1h 38m.

    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt32214143/
    [rating 5.5]

    Damn - with a title like that, this deserves to be a baroque horror
    flick, not some slapstick comedy for tweens!! >:|

    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt37890206/

    Heaton did another recent LMN flick. This sounds... OK, I guess. I will probably check it out.

    Interesting - I was recently wondering if Cook had dropped out of doing Hallmark flicks, as she hadn't done one recently.

    No, you really don't.

    Rainbow Sun Francks, and Amanda Thamage. Not on IMDb as of Sunday
    afternoon.

    https://www.mylifetime.com/movies/the-millwood-murders-buried-truth

    Yeah, more and more Lifetime/LMN flicks are not getting pre-added to
    IMDb. It's starting to become a pattern.

    Anyway, not sure I will watch this one or not.

    Memory of a Killer˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙ [new; special night and time]˙˙˙˙˙˙˙ (10 pm
    ET / 7 pm PT, Fox)

    Hitman Angelo Ledda (Patrick Dempsey) hides the fact he has developed early-onset Alzheimer's from his daughter (Odeya Rush) and his friend
    Dutch (Michael Imperioli),

    Odeye Rush will probably be enough to get me to watch this.

    whose restaurant is a front for their
    criminal enterprise in the thriller series inspired by the 2003 Belgian
    film 'De Zaak Alzheimer.' A very late change in showrunners means that
    the series is now in the hands of 'Damages' producers Glenn Kessler and Aaron Zelman.

    Well, the first season of "Damages" was exceptional.

    Tonight's premiere airs immediately following the NFC
    Championship Game in all timezones; another episode airs Monday 1/26 at
    9 pm (the show's regular timeslot going forward). There does not appear
    to be a repeat of tonight's episode. Ten episodes.

    [Belgian film; as "The Memory of a Killer"]

    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11827628/
    [2022 American remake, "Memory," starring Liam Neeson]

    Pretty sure I saw the Neeson film version.


    (end)

    I guess this could have been worse. ;)
