Good Things Round Up

1) The roofers have finished the roof! Well, someone has told me I should have them come back and put snow guards over all the doors, even the ones we don't use, so maybe it's more like mostly finished? Main thing to mom and me is they aren't still showing up bright and early to bang on the roof all day.

2) Got caught up on The Orville, which

Good news about the roof being done.

Thanks!

The Orville has been a bunch of fun, though I've missed it the last couple weeks.

I've seen some mixed reviews. I think the negative ones I've seen have mostly been people who don't like Seth McFarlane's sense of humor which always makes me wonder why they tried it in the first place. I mean not only is he the creator, but the star. I was a little unsure if I'd like it because he can be very hit and miss with me, but so far I've really enjoyed it.

I still really need to give Highlander a try. I've only seen the first movie and some of the cartoon series, but I liked both a lot. Maybe they'll put the series back on netflix instant.

You do really need to give the TV series a try. I love the first movie, and I've seen all of the kids cartoon, but the show remains my favorite part of the Highlander universe. My top three would probably be the TV show, the first movie, and the anime. The anime took a lot of flack from Highlander fans that didn't like the universe getting into anime, and from anime fans that didn't care for Yoshiaki Kawajiri doing a Highlander movie. I love it because I think it's a great blending of Highlander and anime. Of course one of the things I loved about how Panzer-Davis handled the franchise, until they had Duncan MacLeod take the movies over from Connor, was that they had a different Highlander for each medium. Connor was the movie Highlander, Duncan was the TV Highlander, Quentin was the kids cartoon Highlander, and Colin was the anime Highlander. It was cool. See the show, and the anime.
