What I'm Watching Now

Season 4 of The Diplomat dropped so I binge-watched that. Now I'm rewatching all four seasons.

I was watching Shameless, but I got bored in season six. I might skip the rest of that season and start on season 7? Or maybe not.

I tried watching Black Doves, but again, got bored halfway through season 1.

Call the Midwife released a new season but I couldn't even get halfway through the first episode. I think this show has run its course.

I watched about 20 minutes of The Kid Detective. Tedious. Ditto East of Eden.

These are all Netflix shows, btw. 

I also watched Clueless, the movie, on Apple TV, and enjoyed it. Wikipedia tells me this movie was released in 1995. I think I saw it in the theater then. That was back before we had the kid, and Dr Skull and I went to the movies several times a week. It holds up pretty well. This is the movie that's based (loosely) on Jane Austen's Emma. The Mr Knightly character is only a few years older than the Emma character, not 16 years older; and the father, instead of being a valetudinarian, is a ferocious litigator. The Frank Churchill character is gay, and there's no Jane Fairfax, sadly. Anyway, a lot of fun.

I might rewatch Pluribus (also on Apple TV) after I finish the Diplomat rewatch.

I need TV to watch because I am finishing a blanket for the kids, and I crochet while I watch. I suppose I could listen to audiobooks instead. I should do a 'what I'm listening to' post soon.
