    Watched episode 4 of Lanterns yesterday, i am really enjoying the show.

    I have started my rewatch of The Addams Family (1964).

    And I just watched the newest episode of Always Sunny. That may have been one of the best episodes in a while. I always love the episodes where everything that happens in the episode pisses off Dennis, especially when it is the gang confusing names and people.

    Sticking with Strange New Worlds, though it’s getting exhausting trying to scrape off the exact right amount of surface crap to see if the actual plot and characterization of this week’s genre pastiche is actually decent. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn’t.

    I also just started TOS s3, and Spock’s Brain isn’t that bad. The endless slog of flimsy backlot-filmed concepts in s2 was way worse.

    Ted Lasso S4 is coming around, but that show deeply, deeply misses Bill Lawrence’s voice. Too many actions are being driven by gag potential and sitcom tropes rather than arising out of character. Also, they let Michelle and the doctor off way too easy, but I’ll say no more.

    Lanterns continues to be pretty good. Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre have really good chemistry.

    Anime-wise, my kid introduced me to Bofuri and if she doesn’t want to get back to it soon, I may watch it on my own. I do find it interesting how much fantasy manga and anime engages so directly with CRPG and TTRPG mechanics and tropes, or even (like Bofuri) just removes the curtain and sets it in a game.

    Just finished the season finale for both Silo and For All Mankind.

    Good sci-fi dramas

    Started watching the next generation of The Grand Tour, and i’m pleasantly surprised. I’m not sure if these three will ever be as good as Clarkson Hammond and May, but they are already better than all the versions of top gear after CHM. They picked three proper car nerds rather than celebrities.

    Rewatching The Americans and Steven Universe, both great. I’ll probably watch Snowfall again next, before checking out that “snowfall story” that’s been getting pushed by FX.

      One of the best series, in the last 20 years.

      Only breaks immersion a couple of times when the FX are obvious CG.

      I was really happy how this season went. After getting nervous by how the season started and feeling like we weren’t going to get anywhere, it really went all out and we got so much lore and backstory. Very excited for S4.

    Currently rewatching MASH because I am in one of those periods where I’m having trouble starting a new show and I love the nostalgia hit of the theme song transporting me to 1995 and it’s Sunday afternoon and we just got home from church and Mom is pulling a roast out of the oven. Anyway, watch MASH. It’s good.

    Currently rewatching Community as many times as it takes until I’m no longer in my depressed state. Recently finished The Mentalist which ended up being really good. Someone else mentioned Silo which I think is an extremely good slow thriller. Severance, also by Apple TV is just an interestingly odd show that hooks you pretty quick.

    I just finished IT: Welcome to Derry. Finished it in a day and it was great.

    Now I think I’ll finish The Crown. I got a couple seasons in and stopped watching. But I think I’ll finish.

    Hercules: The Legendary Journeys

    It’s kind of a fantasy action adventure soap opera. A great cleanser from today’s overtly gritty crap. Cheap fun I barely have to pay attention to to enjoy.
