January Picks: The Movies and TV You Can't Miss21 of 23
"Painting With John" | Series Premieres Friday, Jan. 22 on HBO
Plot: Part meditative tutorial, part fireside chat, musician John Lurie shares his philosophical thoughts while honing his watercolor techniques.
Our Take: 30 years after "Fishing With John" became a staple of late night TV (and an early ancestor of the podcast), musician/actor/artist John Lurie is back with a new show, one that seems designed to encourage people to create, think a bit more freely, and realize that amassing more offbeat wisdom is the best part of getting older. And, hopefully, watercolors will be the quarantine craze of 2021. — Arno
