The TV thread

I think Zero Zero Zero on Amazon is from some of the same people.

 

Not sure how I ended up down Annette Funicello's rabbit hole ... but does America have a "grapefruit spoon" anymore?

 

We have several in our silverware drawer. Serrated edge on the front edge of the spoon makes it easier to free the fruit from the rind. Most people run a paring knife around the edge of the segments to make getting it out easier. The spoon helps complete the job if it has not been fully cut free, as it seldom is.

I'm on lipitor for cholesterol and not supposed to eat it anymore. Sigh.

 

They've already started production on season 2, so I am hopeful we will have more Ted Lasso by the end of this year.

 

Invincible is good and crazy.

 

Her uncle is Richard Deacon, character actor and mainstay on the Dick Van Dyke Show.

 

Actually, she's been quoted as saying that he treated her extremely well, and that they are friends to this day... but yeah.

Hollywood.

 

I had read that Season 2 is scheduled to premiere this summer. I know they were shooting in England because there are all of these stories of a post-breakup Jason Sudekis and Olivia Wilde having to live together in a COVID bubble in order to both see their kids.

 

I don't know if its on Peacock, but anyone else ever watch the one (season) and done "Mr. Sterling" on NBC about a non-affiliated Senator who become the swing vote in a "tied" Senate? It was pretty good.

Also great - "Awake" with Jason Isaacs, as a man who experiences alternative lives after a tragic car crash - in one his wife dies, in the other one, his son dies. Only 10 or 13 episodes but really well-done.

 

Heard this was an awesome show.

 

@Songbird i’ve just finished Wiseguy. I’m not sure a show has gone from great to awful as quick as this show, yet I had to watch til the end.

 

1-3 to 4? Yeah complete 180. The show lost its heart when Wahl left. You could see it in McPike's demeanor i.e. the actor just wasn't in it like he was seasons 1-3.
