The TV thread

Dopesick is great, but not something I can just binge through. It's a very hard, but good, watch.

I am always intrigued by Michael Keaton. He's very good, as always.

The writer / exec producer, Danny Strong, was Doyle in Gilmore Girls. He's done quite well for himself.

 

Started Cowboy Bebop - live action.

Then my teen corrected me to watch the original animated version. My God, the music.

 

Cowboy Bebop and Trigun were shown constantly on Adult Swim when I was in college, circa 2002 to 2007. They're both really interesting shows, and the only anime I've really ever been into. (Other shows were on at that time and after, and didn't really "take.") Both are essentially weird space westerns, which help.

 

I've meant to watch the anime Cowboy Bebop for years and never got around to it. Now I'm reluctant to watch the new one before I see the original. Sigh. LOL.

 

I’m watching the original. It’s worth it.

 

If it helps, the original is only 26 episodes, about 30 minutes each. There is also an animated movie, which takes place between episodes 22 and 23.

 

Watching Everybody Hates Chris with my 8th grader. A really sweet and funny show.

 

MAJOR PROPS (or is is Probsts?) to Survivor for taking my suggestion, added bonus was adding in the "Monty Hall Problem." (and Xander mentioning it). They really need to keep this feature going forward - not only does it put real stakes into the immunity challenge, but it also makes the camp negotiations/discussions not knowing if the person is going home or not interesting.

 

The Shrink Next Door? Anyone?
