Lockdown Update Day 214

Oct 17, 2020 22:23

I feel I should do some kind of personal post, but life is not very interesting. We are basically under lockdown, so can't really go anywhere or do anything.

So we are watching a fair bit of TV on an evening.

The 15 y.o. (she objects to being called 'the Cherub' I shall have to think of another moniker) decided that we should watch [the new] She-Ra, so we're now mid-S2 (I think). It's fun, but I have nothing to really say about it.

We also started watching Pride & Prejudice (the proper one, from the '90s) and it's just delightful. (Haven't watched it in YEARS.) Literally laugh-out-loud funny, and the teenager declared that Darcy reminds her of Angel, skulking around and Being Broody. I am pleased to have given her good reference points. (Our Buffy watch is stalled, the last ep we watched was 'Listening to Fear' - the one with the Queller Demon crawling around on the ceiling, brrr. But then the next one is 'Into the Woods' and I cannot manage any enthusiasm, so here we are.)

We are (of course) also watching The Repair Shop. It's the essential antidote for 2020 despair.

Darcy & I also (on a whim) decided to watch Misfits. bb!Klaus is obviously our favourite. There may be Misfits/Umbrella Academy cross-over fic happening at some point. We are um, in S2? Anyway, no spoilers please.

What else...

Oh yes, we watched Des, and lo, it was brilliant and David Tennant is amazing.

We are also re-watching The Bridge (FOR SAGA! ♥ ♥ ♥) and apparently I can forget crime drama plots to the point of not remembering who the bad guy is.

OK, I'm tried now. This was very pointless & waffly. Ah well, all hail TV.
