Watched a few episodes of the 1st season of War Of The Worlds, the episode were the aliens sent down a bunch of robotic dogs, I remembered I saw them in adds and other shows, so after that I tuned out.A couple of things on SBS on demand, which has the virtue if being free "in these difficult times":
- a reinvention of War Of The Worlds in 3 seasons, with Gabriel Byrne probably the best-known face. Really enjoyable.
- "Day Of The Dead" a SyFy channel one series reinvention, this seems to get poorly reviewed but I think it is grand silly fun after a long day.
- apparently they are putting up all the X-Files seasons. So I will have a new go-to binge once I finish off Red Dwarf on Stan.

I'm surprised it's still allowed to be called red dwarf in the current climateLove red dwarf.
And x-files!
Watched this on Beamafilm. If all you know about Munch is The Scream this is pretty informative and gives some background to his art...
I just watched Deuce Bigalow. It is rated M originally, but is rated R with a plethora of warnings on IMDB. I’ve seen it plenty of times, but not for a long time. I was laughing so hard, not at the jokes so much, but the fact cancel culture hasn’t been able to get it shelved.I'm surprised it's still allowed to be called red dwarf in the current climate
I have wondered how people understand the accents. Are there subtitles for it overseas?I finished watching 'Derry Girls' - Netflix, 3 seasons.
It took me awhile to get into it (kicking and screaming ...then ordered to by mrs ge) but by the end I quite liked it.

'wains' is a contraction of wee ones. Absolutely love Derry Girls and I don't think Sister Michael is far from a true reflection on the nuns who ran the schoolsYou can always throw on the subtitles in netflix (and most other streaming services...my better half prefers watching tv with them on- I don't know why) but I didn't find the accents that bad.
I'm not sure why I don't have much trouble with the UK accents, and once you realise 'wains' means kids, etc, then it's all good.
I mean except for James (lol... inside show joke, ftw).

The interaction between Joe and Gerry are great and I think we all know a ColmWe found sister Michael to be hilarious and loved it whenever she was on. Her expressions were a crack up too.

Once when Joe McCool said "Who put 50p in this idiot?" (eejit) when insulting son in law Gerry, was mean...but damn funny.
New series of The Lincoln Lawyer (part 1) and Jack Ryan are out now. I enjoy both.
Also watched the first season of Mr Mercedes which was good. I stopped watching the second series to watch the above shows but will get back into it at some point.
Billions is ace! Wendy Rhoades and Wags are two of my all time favourite TV charactersYeah love Lincoln Lawyer great show. Started watching Billions good show.
