What are you watching & why? (splain)

Season 3 of 'Mythic Quest' on Apple TV. This is seriously one of the most under-rated hilarious satires going right now. They absolutely nail the bizarre, narcissistic lunacy of working in the startup tech world:

"Countdown to Christmas!" (*Hallmark Channel)


Hold on, hold on. Before y'all revoke my "Man Card" and get me tossed from the Forum, please allow me to explain...

As some of y'all know, I'm locked in an Asylum with an 80yo lady who is almost completely imbecile. My idea of an AWESOME day is getting to run errands (*grocery store, Post Office, bank, etc.) for an hour, in one of the old trucks, while my "Patient" is asleep. For those of you who have never cared for an ill/Senior relative, allow me to walk you through the process.

At first, they LOVE things like "48 hours", "20/20 on OWN", etc. Then, if they have Alzheimer's (*and as their disease progresses), they get to the point where they can no longer separate "reality reporting" from "reality". The stories, photos, suspenseful music/sounds start to give them great anxiety. At that point, a lovey-dovey "chick flick" is about all they can handle/enjoy. Simple story line, no violence, and one innocent kiss at the end.


I lost my faith years ago (*fallen away Catholic) but am still thankful to God (*daily) for 24 hours of easy to watch "entertainment". No matter how often our sleep schedules get screwed-up (*and it's ridiculously often), we have some easy-going flicks to enjoy. It is what it is.


And again, believe it or not, I'm more thankful for those Hallmark Christmas movies than I could ever express.

Finished up The Serpent Queen, and it was fun, but I can see why they didn’t re-up for a second season. They pretty much covered the whole of Catherine de’Medici’s rise and political career. It felt more like a mini-series even though there were eight episodes.

We watched Self/less a few nights ago. Ben Kingsley, Matthew Goode, Ryan Reynolds, and Natalie Martinez. Super fun film. Reminded me a little of The Island. It was badly reviewed, and there was some validity to the gripes, but we enjoyed it. Would recommend.

If you're looking for a new Western to watch, check out "The English" on Prime.

It was just released on 11/11/2020. Just started watching it and am currently on Episode 3 of 6 and I like it.

Emily Blunt plays an Englishwoman who meets/befriends a Native American, who previously served as an Army scout, played by Chaske Spencer, who actually is a Native American actor.

Blunt is one of my favorite actresses because of her ability to play such a wide range of roles -- from Devil Wears Prada to Young Victoria to Adjustment Bureau to Edge of Tomorrow to Sicario.

Spencer also does an excellent job of playing the taciturn and aggrieved Native American, who is the most capable, honorable and trustworthy person in the show.
