My wife and I just finished a full rewatch of Last Man on Earth, by Will Forte. It only got 4 seasons on Fox before being canceled (as they do with anything good), but is incredibly funny and weird. I highly recommend it if you want something off beat about the end of the world but with heart. Warning: Will Forte is the best and worst thing about the show; you have to deal with an extreme level of annoying/dad jokes to get the real gold, but itās worth it.
Weāve been watching that with keen interest ourselves; I find it poignant, but chilling to the core.

I first encountered Toby Jones in an episode of Doctor Who. He played a character called the Dream Lord. It was one of the scariest, most haunting, episodes from the Doctor Who franchise.
And his appearance in The Hunger Games was just as sinister.
I havenāt watched āMr Bates vs the Post Officeā because I feared it would be a repeat performance as the bad guy. Maybe Iām wrong???
You will be relieved to know that Toby Jones is the good guy in this series.
Heās also a āgood guyā in The Detectorists.
Whether or not you would enjoy him in that series all depends on how much you like rather dry and really quirky British humour.
Just started watching āThe Acolyteā, the new Star Wars series.
We finished ep 2 tonight; so far, weāre both loving it. Really draws you in well. And since itās set 100 years before the prequels, I donāt think there is any back story you need to know before watching. Definitely recommend (despite the reviews). Of course, that could all change after another episode or twoā¦
Just finished āThe Veilā on Hulu. Thoroughly enjoyed Elisabeth Moss in this mini series
A funny thing about watching The Acolyte.
I watch everything through streaming, and have for years. Itās been so long since Iāve watched live TV, or even anything current, that it caught me completely off-guard to find that I have to wait a week for the next episode!
Bridgerton Season 3: Part 2 is out today
As soon as we finish last season of Black Sails ā¦
When we like it ...
We burned through 35 of 40 episodes in about 11 days on this one ā¦ kept us engaged ā¦
The only sport that Nisha and I follow with any regularity is beach volleyball. I was watching replays from the latest World Tour event, which was in Ostrava, Czechia.
The games go all over the world, but there is consistency in some of the announcements and crowd responses; for a big spike, the loudspeakers will play (in English, regardless of where theyāre playing) āHere comes the BOOM! Here comes the BOOM! Here comes the BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!ā
There are often graphics played on the boards surrounding the stadium.
So I now know that in Czech, the word we spell āBoomā is spelled āBUMā.
I still have enough immaturity left to find āHere comes the BUM! BUM! BUM!ā rather amusing.
We donāt have a TV, but are watching the British election results online.
From what I can tell, Labourās shift towards the political center looks to pay dividends.
