Is anyone watching the new Ken Burns series on PBS, The U.S. and the Holocaust. I seriously cannot recommend that show enough. It's obviously written with an eye towards pointing out the echoes of that time that are heard today. But just some of the interesting nuggets that are in the show.
For instance, when FDR took office, there were not an insignificant number of people that wanted him to assume full dictatorial powers. And, of course, in his famous first inaugural address, he talked about trying to address the economic woes using normal, constitutional measures, but if that did not work, or if Congress did not cooperate, he'd go full dictator.
In the Burns documentary, they recounted how Eleanor Roosevelt was so taken aback by the enthusiasm of the crowd's response to that line that she said it frightened her. I had never heard that story before.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

Fans of Cobra Kai! You may want to check out Cobra Kai theory on YouTube.
I missed some breadcrumbs since Terry Silver’s return …. the theory emerging now really explains how Daniel defeated Terry and why Terry made some of the statements he made “I’m not afraid to die”, etc. also explains how Terry Silver is suddenly at a hospital where Johnny was and talked about youth several times in the past couple of episodes.
it’s really worth checking out.
Everything in its right place, Wisconsin Hockey National Champs!

ETA - one of my favorites scenes was when the family was all in the living room and the doorbell rings and it's the maitre d from a Japanese restaurant and they have to go get the grandfather who had taken a bunch of the waiters as hostages. Seriously, that show was outstanding.

Fun fact: Katherine Helmond (Jessica) was a highly accomplished stage actress. She did TV in her 40s and 50s for the LOLs. As the show alluded to many times, she had an amazing pair.

There's a Quantum Leap sequel/remake starting tonight... on one hand, the premise lends itself to being decent TV the same way Dr. Who does: time travel allows you leeway to touch on any issue you want each week within the framework of the show and without tying yourself into longterm knots.
On the other hand, was anyone asking for a Quantum Leap remake? Especially without it being Bakulized for your entertainment? (And will they eventually retcon the ending of the initial series by bringing Bakula back)?

This show looks awful though. It looks more like a bad SNL mock trailer than an actual TV show with a budget and writers. If NBC wasn't desperate for content it would be cancelled fast cause I doubt anyone watches past episode 3."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

Of course I'm a fan of the Vikings. A sick and demented Masochist of a fan, but a fan none the less.
