Riverdale is kind of back ... started yesterday as Rivervale and it's quite dark and things don't seem to be going especially well for most of the crew. It's narrated by a fairly grown up Jughead.
To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Is anyone watching Astrid & Lilly Save the World on Syfy? It’s kind of cheesy, but in a fun way. And there have definitely been several Buffy references.
Especially the most recent episode which has people dealing with their worst fears and so far features a psychotic clown and a dodgeball game.

I've got a couple of eps on my DVR. The ads caught my attention so I started recording, but haven't watched any yet. Glad to hear a rec.

This week's Buffy reference on Astrid and Lilly Save the World, "gas leaks". They totally explain why everyone is hallucinating their worst nightmares.

Would Around the World in 80 Days go here? It’s on Masterpiece/PBS, and it stars David Tennant. It’s based on a Jules Verne novel, so arguably SF. Very into the Amazing Possibilities of Technology (1800s flavor).

Around the World in 80 Days
The people are pretty, the scenery is pretty, many of the scenes are interesting, but somehow it didn't come together well for me.
I liked the casting of Fix and Passepartout, and the expansion of their stories.
Yet overall, somehow...meh.

I’m enjoying Phogg’s character arc so far. (I’ve watched through episode three.) and I don’t recall reading the book, so it’s all new to me. But I’m a Tennant fan, which may be coloring my view.

Catching up on Resident Alien.
Season 2 is less funny than season 1, and I'm still not sure I actually like the show.
But at least Enver Gjokaj got a role!

Well, sad to say, it was a very brief appearance.
