"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So, uh, maybe check it out, if you're in the mood for that sort of thing?

I have Netflix so I"ll give it a peruse.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

HEY SO WHO WANTS TO TALK ABOUT BOJACK?????

I have emotions.

Sorry, I can't binge-watch BoJack; I can only watch it in small doses. I'm only on episode 5 right now.

(I think I've already figured out who the mother of his child is; man, that's going to be a gut-punch when I get to the reveal)

That is me with Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Tom. I understand these feelings.

Well, my theory of who the mother is was completely wrong, I thought it would be a sixteen-year-old Sarah-Lynne. I haven't been so happy to be wrong in a long time.

That was a surprisingly upbeat ending; especially since I never really liked Dianne and Mr. Peanutbutter together anyway.

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

Amazon Prime is teaming up with BBC to produce King Lear, with Anthony Hopkins as Lear and Emma Thompson as Goneril: [link]

Talk about an interesting reunion, given that they played a couple (and an almost couple) in Howards End and Remains of the Day. Emily Watson will play Regan and Cordelia will be played by Florence Hugh. I am v. excited about Pugh - I recently saw her in Lady MacBeth, which is an amazing period film set in Yorkshire in mid 19th C, in which she plays a protagonist that turns from sympathetic to monstrous at a blink of an eye. It's formally austere and emotionally devastating. Not sure if the movie is streaming anywhere yet but I can't recommend it highly enough.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Moved from Boxed Set:

ST: Discovery --

1) Rickie!
2) Jeez that head of security was an idiot
3) Rickie!!!!1!

2) And the Darwin award for 2256 goes to...

Not getting the Rickie references.

The whole Klingon thing just drags.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Not getting the Rickie references.

The Doctor was played by Wilson Cruz who played Rickie on My So-Called Life.
