My 5 year old daughter loves playing chess. Hopefully she sticks with it, becomes great and lays the smackdown on some boys when she gets older.

Is she a math prodigy?

No, she is ahead of where she should be in math but I wouldn't say prodigy. I used to play chess with my son occasionally and she wanted to do what her brother was doing so I started playing with her. She is pretty good for a 5 year old.

Just don't get her hooked on little green pills!

Really enjoyed that show. Just watched it last year. I prefer to watch shows after the buzz about them dies down.

Same (I prefer to either catch them pre-buzz, or later, actually, but for QB, it was later). I'm a huge fan of Anna Taylor-Joy -- she's fantastic in everything.

I know if I watch a show that is the "current thing" I am going to be disappointed. Everyone is talking about it so I go in with very high expectations and sometimes it takes awhile to get into a show. This happened with both game of thrones and Breaking Bad for me. Everyone was talking about them and so I started watching and didn't really get into them. Then a couple years later I tried again and became hooked and thought they were great.

The name sounds familiar. I believe my wife watched that but I don't recall seeing any of it. Worth checking out?

Yeah
I started watching it after the show ended last year. My friend recommended it to me 5 years ago
