Re: Currently watching.
Seems like they canceled the Cowboy Bebop reboot on Netflix, which is kind of a bummer. I really like John Cho and, well, basically all of the cast except Vicious. It's like they forgot the cardinal sin that a villain is way scarier when you only see them in small doses.
Also don't know if anyone is watching Wheel of Time on Amazon...not loving that one as much. Brando Sando said his favorite episode is upcoming and that might, just might, turn around how I feel about that series, but also disappointed. It feels like everyone is trying to recapture the early days of GoT or LoTR without understanding what made those stories tick and it's killing me.
But hey, only a CBA and...a season away from Spring Training, hopefully.

Wife's been watching it. It feels like a more serious version of those Xena Warrior Princess shows.

Re: Currently watching.
When I worked in a book store, I came to hate Wheel of Time because of all the fantasy geeks coming in and asking when they next 1400-page volume was coming out. I don’t know. I didn’t know last week and I don’t know now. You dorks are all on the internet, go find out there. I was basically neutral towards fantasy until that job, then developed a serious hostility towards fantasy because of the pestering nature of the fans.revbob wrote: ↑09 Dec 2021, 9:07pmWife's been watching it.

Not according the search. Given his participation in so many edgy comedies (Mr. Show, Sarah Silverman), this really does stun me.

Apparently, he appeared on Gavin McGinness' (founder of the Proud Boys) podcast in 2015 so he's been a piece of shit since at least then.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑18 Dec 2021, 7:06pmNot according the search.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
