    Doctor Who

    Ugh-- I watched the most recent episode "Boom." Ncuti Gatwa is a good actor-- but kind of over-the-top with this episode. It tries too hard to pull at the heartstrings and kind of fails. I think there is a connection between this episode and Time Bandits in that it was trying to achieve the...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Batteries to the gun safe died. I had to use the key. But seriously questionable design / engineering flaw for Stack-on gun safes that there is a single, physical key override (an no way to "jump-start" the dead key-panel). The dead batteries are locked inside the safe. Doesn't matter that the...

    Ha ha ha ha... Man- did I binge watch this with reckless enjoyment. I thought I was in for a mish-mash of the Rockford Files, Nash Bridges and Twin Peaks. No spoilers but where they went with this show was bonkers! I don't think I liked it nearly as much as I would have had they chosen...

    Doctor Who

    Well; I have discovered the new series is good for something. As I said, I have been watching the Peter Capaldi episodes. I cannot believe that I "noped out" on him (but I did). Now I am watching these episodes and it is like watching Masterpiece theater. The acting, sets, characters are so...

    The Fast Food Thread

    McD and BK are unaffordable without the apps. The employees lead with "will you be using your app today?" If not- go get real food. A good diner will get you 4 or 5 course meal for under $20. Not getting that at any fast food place lately. Especially without the apps.

    The Fast Food Thread

    I think Wendy's chili is about the only redeeming food at the chain. The rest has taken a huge nose-dive. I don't think I have been to a Wendy's in over 3 years. Even though around me they are open super late. Still not worth it.. PS- (non-sequitur here) Raising Cain's chicken is way over-rated...

    Wednesday

    They definitely played up the Wednesday is girlfriend material for the first season. You know that is not going to go away. A date (not intercourse, damn it) is definitely going to happen this season. She is BF material but whether or not that boyfriend survives intact remains to be seen. And...

    Jeesh; I actually thought it was Bette Midler! But" they" is a "they" not a he or a she and" they" have been doing drag since "they" were 15... So, are "thier" parent's to blame or is it just mother/father/their nature? https://tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Jinkx_Monsoon also.... This is Why...

    Wednesday

    Okay -- I'm throwing this creepiness out there: Would you rather be Wednesday's date or victim? Or maybe a bit of both? Jenna is just spectacular in this role.

    Doctor Who

    Ironically, it is having a ripple effect on me. I am watching some select Peter Capaldi episodes. Just finished "Mummy on the Orient Express." So Disney is propping up my Amazon Prime membership, indirectly and without financial ties (that I am aware of anyway). I had to pay $0.87 to watch...

    Doctor Who

    Wow... And I do mean wow. So let's think about this-- you have a show that allows for a complete "Tabula rasa." You can paint whatever you want into that blank canvas. You can explore any genre, any time, for as many episodes as you want. You have an extraordinary budget and score. And these...

    Alex Rider

    Is anyone else watching this? There must be because there are three seasons of it so far. Teen super-spy-to-be who never knew his uncle was The Man From Uncle (and his Dad was probably Arnold Swatznegger's characterin "true Lies") I am three episodes in and I'm hooked. Who would have thought...

    Shardlake

    Found it kind of randomly on Hulu. Not the most ambitiously paced TV series, but rich and delicious with its Tudor setting. Acting is spectacular. Sean Bean doesn't die (that's not a spoiler). It's a solid mystery, delivered the way a classic mystery should unfold. A murder (maybe two, three or...
