Don’t do that. There’s plenty that will do it for you in my experience.

Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
We watched the first two episodes and loved it. So much so that we've never watched the rest...for some reason...so we're going to take care of that this fall since it's getting dark earlier.

Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
I watched The Connors last night. I still like the cast and will probably stick with it for a while but I can't see it being a show I regularly look forward to. The revival last year started promising before quickly becoming so-so.

Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
Other than the stupid opioids reveal on the porch at the beginning, I actually thought The Conners was better than the revival.
I thought it was appropriately morbid/pessimistic/uplifting.

No shit. My son saw it and said, "Let's watch it!" Something's wrong with him.

Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
Gave the pilot of HBO’s Camping a try last night. Seems promising. Jennifer Garner is perfect in this role. Who among us hasn’t tried to organize the chaos of our lives through an ill-fated camping trip with people we just kind of tolerate?
