“For the first time, Winterfolk will not be live in-person.  That said, the challenges the past year have presented all the more reason to celebrate the Festival’s 19th birthday.

This year’s virtual celebration is affirming what we in Toronto have long-recognized: this city has an unwavering commitment to musical excellence and, especially in times like these, an equally great commitment to our communities.”

Muted Alea Media Netflix #whatonwhatgood Express Review Muted (El Silencio) is a crime-mystery-drama series. It follows Sergio Ciscar who murdered his parents and was incarcerated for 6 years.  Since then, he hasn't said a word. Once he leaves jail, the authorities still want to keep an eye on him.  They want to know if he is a danger to society and why he murdered his parents.  Will they figure out what really happened? Overall, it was a decent story.  If you need something to binge, 'Muted' is an interesting watch. Description Sergio Ciscar is released from prison 6 years after having killed his parents when he was still underaged. During that time, Sergio hasn’t said a word nor has collaborated with the justice system, so the motivations for the crime and the intentions he has by now are a mystery. Ana Dussel, a young psychiatrist, and her team are in charge of determining his potential danger to society by secretly watching him day and night as if he was an ani...

Chloe (2022) Mam Tor Productions, Amazon Studios BBC One, Prime Video Social Media #Chloe #PrimeVideo Release date Friday, June 24, on Amazon Prime Video #whatonwhatsgood Express Review (by: Jovin Tardif) Chloe is an interesting drama.  I wasn't blown away when I was watching it ... but it was fascinating.

Readey  Mixtape Between The Lines   Readey discusses “Between The Lines" “Between The Lines is a compilation of songs that I feel will truly define me as an artist. I fully indulged in the creative process to create the project, writing and recording all nine tracks at home. Some of the tracks are simply me projecting a certain mood or vibe that I was feeling at the moment of inspiration, and others are a deeper analysis of my personal emotions and life experiences. I just hope that people will feel something when they are listening.” 2. SHAB  New single 'Music To My Heart' 3.

TV Review: The Neighborhood

The Neighborhood Mud, Blood & Beer Productions/A Bird and a Bear Entertainment/Kapital Entertainment/Trill Television CBS Studios/CBS #whatonwhatsgood Express Review (by: Jovin Tardif) "The Neighborhood on CBS is about a friendly Midwestern couple (Dave and Gemma Johnson) and their son Grover (Hank Greenspan) who move to a neighborhood in Los Angeles. Gemma (Beth Behrs) got a new job as a school principal in L.A. Dave Johnson (Max Greenfield) is just about the friendliest guy in the world.  I don't think anyone can dislike him.  Well one person can... They have a pretty opinionated next-door neighbor, the grouchy mechanic Calvin Butler (Cedric the Entertainer).  He has a wife named Tina (Tichina Arnold) and two sons Marty (Marcel Spears) and Malcolm (Sheaun McKinney).   Dave is desperately trying to fit in with the community.  Will the Johnsons be accepted by everyone?   The series is quite amusing.  Tina as Calvin's wife is fun as she keeps...
