The TV thread

Not gonna lie, that Harrison Ford speech into the Jimmy/Roy Kent scene got to me pretty good.

 

Say Nothing. Haunting, disturbing. Will stay with you long after you finish the last episode.

 

Just watched 1st 3 episodes of English Teacher, some funny LOL stuff.

 

Boy, then it really improved between episodes 1 and 2 ...

 

I watched most of the season. I a couple of episodes. What I saw was uneven, but had its funny moments.

 

"Designated Survivor" came up on my Netflix recommended list. I am hooked. And I discovered a new heartthrob -- Italia Ricci. Never heard of her, never seen anything she has done. Gorgeous.

 

Max/HBOMAX took The West Wing off its active streaming lineup, and it is now available nowhere on any streaming platform.

The only way you can watch the show now is to buy it per episode from Amazon, or by buying the DVD or Blu-Ray collection sets (all very expensive).

 

Returning Wednesday.

Yep, TWW is back on the MAX lineup.

I threw on the Season One episodes which I haven't watched in several years. God damn, is Mandy (Moira Kelly) a teeth grindingly reprehensible character.

 

I ran up on this clip. Very quick witted men.

 

After watching "Shifting Gears," I'll be shifting to something else. Had TV on in background. Not funny at all. Didn't even give me a chuckle. But Tim Allen hasn't been funny to me since the 1990s.

 

Probably my favorite series of the past 12 months.
