If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

How many eps are available now? I've seen the first two as screeners so I don't want to spoil anything.

Just the first.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

We're talking about it in the Marvel Universe thread though, I think? That's where WandaVision and FATWS discussions happened.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I came across a review of a six-episode series on Peacock called We Are Lady Parts - a group of Muslim young women form a punk band. The trailer is here.

Thanks for reminding me! I wanted to see that.

I decided what the hell, I'd subscribe to Apple TV+ in time for Ted Lasso season 2 next month (I ahemed the 1st season and fell in love with it), it's only $5 a month, etc. While browsing their meager offering, I randomly decided to try Mythic Quest, about which I'd heard some good things. It's a work place comedy sort of like The Office but set in a video game development company. And what do you know, I really dig it, despite knowing nothing about role playing video games. The ensemble cast has terrific chemistry and over the first season, there are some very solid character developments.

I'm just about done with S1 and about to start the second season, which is ongoing. Gotta say, I love the 30 min an episode format. My attention span ain't what it used to be.

Mythic Quest had a rough start but I've started really enjoying it.

Yeah. First 2-3 episodes were kinda thin. Episode 5 (the standalone with Jake Johnson and Cristin Milloti) was outstanding, and things improved from there on. I just watched the quarantine episode last night and thought that was very strong as well.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Bosch season 7 has been released. "There goes the weekend," indeed.

The Mysterious Benedict Society is the Wes Anderson inspired kids show that I’ve been waiting for.
