They reran seasons 1-8 in April.

I missed that (studies), so I plan on catching up as much as I can via Prime (when I'm not studying).

Psych has their second movie coming out this year. They also had a binge-a-thon where they had Zoom reunions during the commercial breaks.

Oh man, how did I miss that??? I blame you guys for not posting a lot about it while it was happening thereby reminding me it was on. :)

Handy, we messed up. We should have posted about that more often.

Meanwhile, I'm bribing myself with Psych to get work done. Write 2 pages. Psych. Write 2 pages. Psych. And so on.

Killing Eve was great tonight. Happy Mother’s Day!
And Elton John.

John Oliver has caused enough traffic to stamps.com that it won’t load.
 
Re: TV: A Succession of Watchmen in The Good Place

I started watching Marvelous Mrs. Maisel tonight, and as I have time (HA!), I really want to get caught up on that show!

"You need a husband!"
"What am I supposed to do, buy one at Sabar's?"

Dear TV,

I'm sorry I was mean to you. I called you a massive distraction and said I didn't have enough time for you. Tell you what. Depending on where I am with my job and my coursework, I'll start watching more of you as time goes on.
 
Re: TV: A Succession of Watchmen in The Good Place

The "Mother Russia" episode of Killing Eve was very good.

This goes for many a song for me, that was used in a movie or TV show. I mean, "Stuck In The Middle With You"? Forever etched in my mind connected with "Reservoir Dogs." "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Wayne's World"? Hell, even "Dream On" and the credits for "Miracle."

The people that can match a certain song with a certain scene that creates THAT result...wow.

Thanks to Sons Of Anarchy, I can't hear "Dock Of The Bay" the same way anymore. :eek:

Gimme Shelter is tied to Goodfellas (and on a much lesser note: My Way by The Sex Pistols).
Banana Splits theme in Kick-Arse (was sad they didn't use the Liz Phair version, though)
 
Re: TV: A Succession of Watchmen in The Good Place

The only one that really bugs me is Stuck in the Middle, and (happily) I never liked the song. It's just such a stupid, irresponsible, gratuitous and worthless scene in all respects. I love Tarantino but it was so offensive for a scene which doesn't matter in any way to the story. Madsden already fully develops his character before then with fantastic underacted touches. Only the high school kids needed the torture porn.

Songs like Gimme Shelter are so iconic they dwarf any film use. For example Jumpin' Jack Flash towers over the Whoopie scene. Likewise, Blue Danube survives 2001 untouched but Zarathustra has been compromised by it.
