I recently got with the times and subscribed to Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video.

I just finished the first season of Stranger Things and I've started S2. I really enjoyed Squid Game and can't wait for S2. The Umbrella Academy has been really good so far too.

I've started watching the Netflix MCU shows on Disney+ and just finished the first season of Daredevil. I also finished both seasons of The Mandalorian and started The Book of Boba Fett last weekend.

Of course, I've been watching The Boys on Prime, I'm about half way through S2. Upload is really good too, again, can't wait for the new season. I also watched Invincible. It's an adult animated superhero show along the same line as The Boys. Basically, what if not only is Superman evil, but also what if Krypton hadn't been destroyed and they were planning to invade Earth.

I'm of the impressions that the suits that run Disney are virgins, they don't realize that women can be just as despicable as men. The premise to Wandavision was revolting, yet it was popular. Then what about the dubious morals of Cruella, I watched 101 Dalmatians what to make of the female empowerment of a character that skinned puppies to make purses? Dubious these characters are, neither Elisabeth Olsen nor Emma Stone would have signed up to play them had they been Snow Whites.

I bring this up to the fact that I have no other option to watch The Bear than on Disney +. The company is not releasing FX shows to other platforms. Other than HBO, FX has the best content.

Done better by a man.


Burns: Some men hunt for sport,
Others hunt for food,
The only thing I'm hunting for,
Is an outfit that looks good...

See my vest, see my vest,
Made from real gorilla chest,
Feel this sweater, there's no better,
Than authentic Irish setter.

See this hat, 'twas my cat,
My evening wear - vampire bat,
These white slippers are albino
African endangered rhino.

Grizzly bear underwear,
Turtles' necks, I've got my share,
Beret of poodle, on my noodle
It shall rest,

Try my red robin suit,
It comes one breast or two,
See my vest, see my vest,
See my vest.

Like my loafers? Former gophers -
It was that or skin my chauffeurs,
But a greyhound fur tuxedo
Would be best,

So let's prepare these dogs,
Mrs. Potts: Kill two for matching clogs,
Burns: See my vest, see my vest,
Oh please, won't you see my vest

Joel McHale wanted to break away from his Community image and prove he's a serious actor. He wildly succeeded, if I didn't know better, he studied how Michael Bonacini works and made him vicious.

I started watching First Lady series- Hmm OK - not sure if I will watch all episodes. It is annoying that it flips back and forth in time every 5 minutes.

Beat Bobby Flay is a hoot, sometimes it's surprising.

Supermodel Gigi Hadid showed up as a guest host, I expected it to be great on the eyes but boring. She brought so much personality it was refreshing...and no other guest host tasted as much. In the Good, Bad and Ugly, Jessie Taylor Ferguson takes the ugly for being an asshole. Gigi Hadid is definitely the good and I had no idea who she was before the show.

Buddy Valastro has a new intern.

Been mostly watching animated shows and Korean Action/Dramas.

They have a lot of interesting premisses but my only gripe is the will they won't they romance subplots, it's fine for a bit but half a season in it's like "WILL YOU TWO BANG ALREADY SO WE CAN MOVE THE STORY ALONG PLEASE!"

That is why I avoid shows where the romantic story is the main plot point. It works out pretty wellish.

Funny thing, you know who is getting married to who by the first episode almost all the time. The girl trips and falls into the guys arms, they are as good as married.

But... but... what if she decides to pick the other pretty boy she tripped over?

But yeah I'm talking about shows where romance isn't necessarily the primary focus but it's still there, lurking in the background, ready to spring a sappy song at you...

Sure, but it gets much worse when it's a central plot point. A few shows don't have one, Stovetop League for example. Hotel De Luna is another if I remember right.
As for the rest, you take the good. You take the bad. You take it all and apparently there you have a Kdrama.

Also, not allow. Girl trips into a guy's arms, they must get married. Also if you are driving you must take a U turn on a regular basis or you will lose your driving licence and without one of those how will be you able to kill something via road accident. Also if you are up to no good, you must dress all in black with a black baseball cap. There also must be wrist grabbing, piggyback rides and a trip to the hospital. I think it's a law or something.

I know it's been around a long time, but I just recently got into The Big Bang Theory reruns. I'm finding it absolutely hilarious. Chuck Lorre sure knows how to make a sitcom.

I haven't seen this show listed lately, but I have several episodes on my pvr. It's called Naked Attraction on OUTtv. It's a British dating show where one person gets to chose from 6 totally naked contestants. At the end the person choosing has to appear naked. All nudity is shown in full.

Iron Chef, bigger better, badder!

Netflix now has the rights to Yuki Ettori's global phenomenon and it looks amazing. Mark Dacascos returns as The Chairman, his acting career has taken off with roles in John Wick, Hawaii 5.0 and Agents of Shield. The format is different as they are crowning The Iron Legend. Uncle Roger's crush Auntie Esther is in the competition, unfortunately the amazing Auntie Liz is not.
