The thirty-third album: Stan Getz & Charlie Byrd - Jazz Samba
The start of the bossa nova trend, we're back in gentler, jazzier territory - unfortunately, as I was hoping for more to follow in the rock footsteps from before. It's pleasant, slightly more swing than you otherwise get, but is still somewhat inoffensive jazz. It keeps your attention more than others, but doesn't really stand out in any way for me.
The thirty-fifth TV show: #545 King fo the Hill
We finished watching this show probably a year before we started the list, so quite a bit of it was still fresh - this watch was mostly down to reminding myself. King of the Hill is an interesting show. A Texan family might be a stereotype in other circumstances - leaning one way or the other - but the show mostly sticks in the middle, showing them up while also showing when they're right. It's a nice balance that shows off rounded characters. It allows you to draw in further, mostly with smaller stories that are far more relatable than most.
The breakout star is Bobby Hill, the son of the family, with interests that don't seem normal enough for Hank, causing some of the conflict, but allowing for something far more fun to watch for us. He's portrayed perfectly in the show by Pamela Adlon, who makes him real, more than, sometimes, other larger than life characters can be.
