Escape Clause

Plot:  Drop of blood leads to identification of one of the kidnappers.  Peck (main villain) kills him with tranquilizer dart, stuffs him in refrigerator, and dumps him in river.  Immediately discovered by fisherman.  Peck then kills again--this time the brother of his first victim--because the brother would kill him once he discovers the first murder.  Peck (MD who can't practice because he drugged and assaulted female patients) feeds 2nd victim's legs to the female tiger still alive.

Exciting stuff.  Chase sign with animal activist trying to kill dealer in bear gall bladders.  Virgil's girlfriend beaten up by non-union bosses (she's mistaken for her sister).

Funny stuff:  Peck set up nipple emojis that failed.  Fishermen buy fudgesicles, beer, chew for morning cat fishing.
Nice mix of suspense and comedy.  Fast-paced.

Netflix Lincoln Lawyer

 Just a long yawner.  Acting was fine; there just wasn't nearly enough plot to carry 10 episodes.  Tech guy accused of killing wife.  LL takes on the case after the tech lawyer's first lawyer is murdered.  Mickey Haller gets the guy off . . . trick is the guy is guilty.  He used a drone to dispose of bloody clothes.  Subplot Maggy McFierce trying to get a conviction of a human trafficker.  She loses but then wins.  The divorced couple almost gets back together, but they are on opposite sides of the adversarial process and work comes first.  Won't be in a hurry to watch Season 2

Brotherhood

 Showtime -- Providence, two brothers, one aspiring politician the other a crook.  Totally different, but not so much.  Cop (close friend as child) is investigating crooked brother.  Pretty good series.
