If there be any truer measure of a man than by what he does, it must be by what he gives.

#WaterandBeachThemedVideoGameMusic

Just two weeks ago we kicked off the themed video game music playlist.  Each playlist is based around a certain theme.  The first playlist was fire/lava video game music.  These featured songs from fire/lava levels in some of the games.

Since the first playlist was fire and lava, it’s only fitting we switch over to water this time.  That brings us to today’s video game music playlist.

The category is… Water & Beach video game music.  These songs come from various water or beach-themed levels in video game.

Here is the list of water and beach video game music:

Ratched… Nurse Ratched

It was a bit cooler out on Saturday in the middle of August.  The cool weather only reminded me that Fall is creeping up real soon.  Fall is the start of the Fall TV series line-up.  But most importantly, the start of American Horror Stories.

Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Stories is the new anthology series that will take place this year instead of American Horror Story Season 10.  It will be intriguing to see a set of amazingly disturbing stories happening in each episode.

American Horror Stories will be the exciting horror tv series for Hulu.  And this year, Ryan Murphy has another sinister series that will be dropping on Netflix in about a month.  The new Netflix series is Ratched.

Ratched is about the infamous nurse Mildred Ratched (from Ken Kesey’s novel One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest).  Mildred Ratched (Sarah Paulson) arrives in Northern California seeking employment at a psychiatric hospital where new and unsettling experiments have begun on the human mind.  The series drops on Netflix September 18^th.

Now I haven’t read One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, but I’m definitely getting crazy excited for Ratched.  Based on the trailer, I can already see this having similar vibes to American Horror Story (especially American Horror Story: Asylum!).  Sinister nurses, colorful characters, new and harmful medication being overused.  It has all of the best aspects as a psychological drama that is sure to be a hit.

With that, Ratched comes out on Netflix in September 18^th.  Merely a month away until we learn about the peculiar tale of Nurse Mildred Ratched.

The great thing about human language is that it prevents us from sticking to the matter at hand.
