WACO


A mini-series, and something a little more light than The Fall which I have smashed two seasons during the Winter Olympics US mid-season 2017-2018 TV break.

Years ago I had a trip to Texas and as we drove across the state we stopped in Waco, visited the Wal Mart and continued on our way. However I also knew of the drama that went down in Waco.

The Waco siege was a 51 day siege which resulted in massive casualties, something the US is dealing with on a daily basis, but with people power it looks like maybe the tide is starting the change.

Taylor Kitsch plays David Koresh the cult leader and is joined by Melissa Benoist AKA Supergirl as one of his wives.

We see Michael Shannon, Rory Culkin, John Leguizamo and an all star lead this drama. And it is dramatic, it has received mostly positive reviews and decent viewership across two US networks.



Waco wraps up next week when OH so much TV returns when the Winter Olympics go BYE-BYE! I will looks forward to seeing how the 51 day siege unfolds however I think it will also be heartbreaking.
