What are you currently watching on TV?

[Mickey]

Started Mrs. Fletcher

Enjoying it so far (through ep 3). Kathryn Hahn is so great.

She really is. Just tops!

Did you read the book its based on?

Oh absolutely not

I figured

I haven't read a book unrelated to my dissertation or teaching since last July, so I can't even pretend to say like "Oh yeah I'll check it out." Maybe in 2023.

[E.H. Ruddock]

I took a rare chance on a new network drama, "Debris". It was actually ok and I will continue watching.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

This one is kind of like X-Files, right?

eh, not really. Looks like it might be more like Fringe.

ok but clearly we are talking about the same show ruddo

I already assumed we were, and you were asking if it was like X-files. Otherwise, you would have said "is this the one that looks like x-files?"

Things are really heating up in here

[E.H. Ruddock]

I mean, within the strata of fictional TV shows, X-Files and Fringe are pretty friggin' similar.

How dare you. I suppose Friends and Seinfeld are "pretty friggin' similar"?

Finished zerozerozero this week. I really enjoyed it, as did my sister. I've heard it compared to gomorrah, so I'll have to check that out soon.

[The Argonaut]

This would have been better as:

This is encouraging. And surprising. I might actually check it out.

I'm rewatching The Sopranos again. It's still the best TV show of all time.

[epilogue]

Looks like Party Down is getting a six-episode mini-series revival.

[JuanHamm]

So we're rebooting shows that nobody even watched now?
