flake8 reports:
E722 do not use bare 'except'
Replace them with 'except Exception' per [1] which says:
Bare except will catch exceptions you almost certainly don't want
to catch, including KeyboardInterrupt (the user hitting Ctrl+C) and
Python-raised errors like SystemExit
If you don't have a specific exception you're expecting, at least
except Exception, which is the base type for all "Regular" exceptions.
