Meds are ready. I think my headphones can double as earplugs if needed and I’ve never used a sleep mask.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I follow on Instagram the artist who sculpted this for the New Yorker. I commented that it looked like Lady Penelope, and she replied to me and said that she never even heard of The Thunderbirds before! How can someone who makes puppets for a living not know about The Thunderbirds?

Maybe she's not 50+ yrs old?
After some harassment on my part I got Matilda to move back upstairs to her bedroom from the Garden Apartment.
So last night we watched a few episodes of Wednesday for our Halloween allotment (totally worth a rewatch just to see Gwendoline Christie in Vertigo drag), and several episodes of Nobody Asked For This on Netflix.
I keep having brief pangs thinking how much ita would have loved to see Seth Cohen wooing Veronica Mars. Admittedly, she was always more of a Ryan guy than Seth.
Come to think of it, real live Ben McKenzie marrying Morena Baccarin would probably eclipse that.

I need to finish my most recent Wednesday rewatch. I got sidetracked by COVID (amusingly, given that the first time I watched it, it was because the household had COVID) in July.
However, I am 100% in a 1960s Addams Family wallow at the moment, so Wednesday and Enid will have to wait.

I tried to get Matilda into 60s Addams Family but she'd been so thoroughly indoctrinated with the 90s movies that she rejected TV Wednesday outright. Matilda is ride or die with Christina Ricci.

Carolyn Jones and John Astin will always be my ultimate Gomez and Morticia (not in that order). No others can compare.

I have grown older, but not up.
Something about John Astin's big smile had an underlayer of "step away, that guy is crazy." He used it to good effect in Night Court too.

I love the 90s movies so, so much but TV Wednesday is pretty great. I adore Bianca the siren.
