Oops, I’m watching a classic Julia Child, she’s making onion soup. ”I meant to put in oil, I put vermouth in instead. Well, that’s alright.” and adds the oil to the vermouth. Later, ”I keep taking the vermouth, I meant to add oil”

Switching over to The Chosen. Biblical principles in action, and all that. ”This question of who is the greatest. Foolishness.”

Streaming Nine Perfect Strangers, Season 2... Thinking I had waited until they were all done to binge watch. The finale comes out this week so now I have to wait days to see it?! Dangit

I tend to watch mostly nonsense on TV as real life events these days are too depressing to witness....watching you-know-who speak makes me want to puke!

Currently I am watching The Big Bang Theory, which always cracks me up. Laughter is the best!!

watching "Wolfhall"....again... Im in danger of memorizing it, and I really don't want that. I understand that another season of "All Creatures Great and Small" has finished filming. Will stay tuned. I love that series.

8:20 PM new eng.

TV news. Some hate-filled vulgar jerk just shot and killed two Idaho firefighters in Coeur D’Alene as they were putting out a brush fire (that some LE suspect was started by the killer).

Why on earth.

Someone is having a lot of hate influence.

Nothing. Sunday evenings are often the good PBS shows but not lately.

petalique, that is much of the reason I dont watch tv. Too much horrible news.

I'm catching up on some work and the TV was muted and I was going through programs in the DVR, then that ended and the aboved described scene was on the live TV.

I have to limit TV news, but have to view and read some of it in defensive, self preservation mode. (Do I need to build the bunker yet? Take my citizen docs with me in case Stephen Miller tries to grab me?

Can’t wait until ICE’s budget doubles with the Big Ugly.

BBQ Brawl on Food Network.

Late to this, but just paused the 7th episode of Nine Perfect Strangers - it's getting super intense!

I'm streaming original Law & Order episodes - I've been binging them for the last week or so.

We’re watching the last episodes of The Chosen, Season 5. So, so beautiful and inspiring to me/us.

I was so ready to watch that episode and they said next week... And there was no next episode button I could press 😭

Is it Wednesday yet? Cannot wait to see the end of Nine Perfect Strangers.

I haven't had the tv on in weeks. I will occasionally watch David Muir but that is it.

Cry of the City...film noir with Victor Mature and Richard Conte

Naked and Afraid, Australia. Oooh! That Patrick! grrr He's been in how many now and is still the same "sneaky Pete" or should say "Patrick". Yeah, I know it's for the ratings. Go Cheeny. "I"m queen of the jungle!"

How have I missed The Chosen? I do remember hearing about it a few years ago-not sure why I didn't start it back then. Thanks for the reminder...those of you mentioning it.

Movie..."The Accountant 2". Sooooooooooooo good! I plan on rewatching the first one now....

BBC's Miss Marple starring Joan Hickson. Never read the Agatha Christie books, but love this old classic with this actress. And BBC's Poirot with David Suchet. He is priceless.

Also finishing up Landman's last two episodes of season 1.

I don't have the TV on during the day, but evenings lately I'm watching The CHallenge - 40th season. Only one of my favorites is still hanging in, while a 2nd level favorite is doing well.

Last night I watched Mariska Hargitay's documentary, "My Mom, Jayne." I like Mariska and her character on SVU, and I thought this was well done. Intimate and honest, and quite moving at times.

Sorry--I missed the "right now" part of your question. I don't usually have the TV on during the day.

Dodgers-Royals squeeze play from yesterday (entire game in an hour).

DH is sleeping to something called "the Ghost" which is about a ghost writer. OK.

Joan Hickson as Miss Marple is the best. Years before she was old enough Agatha Christie saw her in a play and said that she would make the perfect Miss Marple when she got older and so she was. Perfection. Played the role as written to perfection. Not quirky or weird and not horrible like Margaret Rutherford-ultimate horrible. She was the daughter of a Bishop with a proper education and manners. Joan did all those things perfectly. The same production group gave you David Suchet as Poirot. A man who can act.

Teatime Matinee this week is "Hidden Assets", an Acorn original. Irish and Belgian police track diamonds and hired killers used by crooked pols in the pockets of drug cartels. Quiet evil.

I'm watching Brokenwood!

We are watching season 2 of Ewan McGregor’s motorcycle series. We watched season 3 & 4 2020 & 2025 and then found out that season 1 & 2 were released in 2004 & 2006. We had no idea these even existed.

Long Way Round - London to NY - Crazy!

Long Way Down - Africa? up to episode 2

Long Up - Electric bikes - Argentina - Up

Long Way Home - Europe - visually stunning

"Joan Hickson as Miss Marple is the best. "

She's my sister's favourite Miss Marple, but I favour Geraldine McEwan

I totally f'ing loved the last episode. Loved season 2 of Nine Perfect Strangers. So perfect!

Toronto Vet, we can duke it out on this one. Geraldine is fun and amusing in the role but she is not Miss Marple. There is no indication in her acting of who Miss Marple actually was. In her day. I would say feel free to enjoy the person she played but it is not Miss Marple. Have you read the original stories where she is introduced? She originally was a Victorian wearing lace mitts. That gave way to a more modern version but still old fashioned with that background of a Bishop for a father and all that entails. It is a class thing. That is just me.

" Have you read the original stories where she is introduced? She originally was a Victorian wearing lace mitts. That gave way to a more modern version but still old fashioned with that background of a Bishop for a father and all that entails. "

I agree, but I think her character definitely changed over the years, and she became more personable and humourous as her stories continued.

We’re watching ”Dave”. Tomorrow night is ”The American President”.

I'm Team Joan Hickson as Miss Marple, but enjoy the episodes with Geraldine McEwan too.

Last night we were watching Colin and Justin's Cabin Pressure, which is ten years old, but we are just now getting it on Samsung channel Home Refresh. You can also watch it for free on Roku.

They are two Scottish guys who now live in Toronto (I think) and renovated lake cabins in Haliburton (wherever that is). If you are Canadian, you will probably like this show. I really like their designs and think they do a great job, plus I enjoy watching them.

Thanks for all of your posts & TV watching recs. I’ll look for some of them that sound right up my alley of interest, But, for now, I’m still watching 2 of my news channels - love Jen Psaki on her channel. Ari as well. I can’t stand to watch but I must stay informed. Good luck to all of us in the coming days with changes to health care coverage to family or other people we know.

Im sticking it out with ‘ Stick’ - Marc Maron and Owen Wilson are fun to watch together

Im thinking about ’Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ which my daughter recommends highly

Really want to watch Mobland but darn, it’s on Paramount, the sellouts :(

maybe Ill wait and get a free trial to binge it at the end - thats what i did for yellowjackets

poker face is another good one for me

good to get recommendations, thanks !

General Hospital, for years.

I've been working through Dark Shadows (on Tubi) for many months. Next episode is 970.

Recently started Another Life and The Four Seasons (series remake, not the original movie) on Netflix. Done through the 4th season of Outer Banks.

Visit sunny Italy in Acorn's 2024-25 "Signora Volpe". Two good seasons with a possible third. The photography is beautiful. There's serious crime as well as local color in the form of the kidnapping of a valuable truffle-hunting pig.
