• What Did You Watch? 2026-01-25 (Sunday)

    From Ubiquitous@3:633/10 to All on Mon Jan 26 04:30:41 2026
    I watched:

    Matt Walsh Reacts To CRINGEY New Star Trek Show
    Matt does a deep dive into what may perhaps be the worst,
    most laughably bad, and wokest TV series to ever be produced
    by a streaming service. And that?s obviously saying a lot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXH-ih_Msbk

    Mario Bava?s Gothic Sci-Fi - Planet of the Vampires, 1965
    Mario Bava?s Planet of the Vampires isn?t just an Italian sci-fi
    curiosity ? it?s one of the most influential space horror films ever
    made.

    Tree explodes from snow

    Why There May Be No One Near Us for 33,000 Light-Years https://youtu.be/5P-8pwvWP4Q?si=poWtJuyQv82wDWB0

    CHARLIE'S ANGELS:
    "Angels in Chains". The Angels enter a women's prison farm to
    investigate an inmate's disappearance. This is the infamous ep in which
    Farah's nipple can be seen. I didn't see it, but I suspect there
    were several new edits in this one.Key, it's Kim Bassinger and the
    principal of Rock And Roll High School!

    HART TO HART:
    "Death in the Slow Lane". When Jonathan buys Jennifer a gorgeous old
    car for her birthday, she is less than thrilled -- but two Brits seem suspiciously eager to take it off her hands.

    FANTASY ISLAND:
    ? "Lady of the Evening". TWell-known call girl Renee Lansing wants to
    escape her old life and find true love

    ? "The Racer". race-car driver Jack Kincaid wants to relive a crash to
    end his nightmares of it.

    Where does Me TV get their copies? This ep looked like something
    someone on recorded on his VCR.!

    LIFE, LIBERTY & LEVIN.

    You sure watch a lot of these. I guess misery loves company.

    I get it. Back when I was using Meghan Markle as a lolcow, I followed
    some channels tracking her adventures.

    What did you watch?

    All I watched were some reruns while going to sleep. I've been snowed in
    by Winter Storm Fran, though, so there may be a movie or two in the next
    few days. I'm torn between something classic and something new, so maybe
    I'll do one of each.

    I spent the weekend watching season one of BOSCH. A detective series
    based around a couple of cases that get resolved over the course of a
    few months/one season. Obviously I enjoyed it given that I binged the
    entire first season.

    Also managed to watch (or rewatch) the first few episodes of season
    one of DIRK GENTLEY. Mostly for the performance of the Bart character.
    She really did such a great job at playing a crazed character that
    can't be hurt, but is more than willing to kill almost anyone that she encounters.

    The pilot of Kate and Allie, which was pretty dire so I gave the second
    episode a chance and I have changed from being ambivalent about the
    characters to actively hating them.

    At least you have a firm opinion about the show. Much better than
    being ambivalent. ;)

    I saw that SOUTHLAND is now on the Netflix, so I started rewatching that show. It's as good as I remember.

    That show was a rare example of a cop show in which the cops were dealing
    with ordinary crime and not James Bond villains. Also, they used to
    force Donnie Wahlberg to act.

    I hear it's going to be in 4K with HDR. Hopefully that also applies to
    the commercials since the movie trailers are the only part of the super
    bowl I care about.

    On Sunday I went to the movies and watched:

    Sentimental Value - New movie from director Joachim Trier. The movie
    stars Stellan Skarsg†rd as a famous Norwegian film director who is
    estranged from his two daughters, but pops up in their lives again after
    he writes a semi autobiographical scripts and wants his actress daughter
    to star in it. This was not on my radar at all, but then it went got 8 academy award nominations, so I was obliged to give it a watch. I knew
    almost nothing about the movie going into it and was more than a little annoyed when it turned out to be a foreign film with subtitles.
    Although the movie also stars Elle Fanning as a famous American actress
    who Skarsg†rd's character approaches to star in his movie, and all of
    her scenes are in English. Anyway, this movie was 100% pure pretensions
    art house Oscar bait. I'm not saying it's a bad movie, but the *only*
    reason I went to see it was all the nominations, and now that I've
    watched it, I can make an informed decision to root for something else
    to win the awards on Oscar night.
