I haven't had a chance to watch it myself, but I've heard good things about The Witcher from friends, even those that haven't played the games; if Henry Cavill fighting evil in a ridiculous wig is your thing.
Willow: That's a work ethic! Buffy, you're developing a work ethic! Buffy: Do they make an ointment for that?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Wynonna Earp improves as it goes on, the first season is definitely the weakest because there is soooo much mythology infodumping going on.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
Watched the first episode of Warrior Nun tonight, which did not disappoint. I have to keep watching it, because I need to know what happens. I'm intrigued by the Eurotrash Grifters, want to know what the story is with the priest Father I-Am-Clearly-Hiding-Something, and kind of love the Vaguely Lesbian Warrior Nuns. (Okay, some of them are more than "vaguely" lesbian.)

Any monster-fighting nuns are going to have some seriously big shoes to fill in Sister Agatha from the BBC Dracula.

Let the record reflect that my skepticism about "one episode" was clearly stated.

I also watched an episode tonight and was vaguely intrigued in a "Please God take my mind off literally everything happening right now" kind of way.
Also, brain woke me up at 4 a.m. WHY.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I thoroughly enjoyed The Witcher. The plot is almost entirely driven by women, and the main character mostly just reacts to situations. He's not trying to engage with the world, he wants to be left the fuck alone. Kind of like Mad Max in that way. By the second episode I realized we were following multiple timelines and I really enjoyed that too. Also, Henry Cavill in a white wig saying fuck a lot is totally my jam.

My brother is right there with you (he said "This is going to be your new obsession, isn't it?").

Which is not currently true, because The Magicians is still my current obsession.
I feel like my life would be easier (or my brain would be less cluttered) if I just liked things like a normal person.

No. I refute this statement.
