The final episode of 1923. Didn't care for it much.

Ah, Space Patrol - written by Roberta Leigh, who also wrote The Adventures Of Twizzle and Torchy The Battery Boy for Gerry Anderson, so it's all from the same family.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

April 14, 2025 - Trump & Tariffs/White Lotus/Netherland Fish Cam (that monitor fish in the lock during breeding seasons - RIGHT NOW!)

The Fish Doorbell

The Last Of Us - Season 2.

Matlock. It's a bit too fast for me though. Looks like it would be a really good show if they just slowed the talking down so I could keep up better. They should have a button on video players to choose the best playback speed without messing up the sound quality. I don't think it would take much of a speed reduction.

I read an interview they had with the lead actress, and apparently she's really depressed and burnt out. Imagine that, being the star of an acclaimed TV show, getting paid well, and still being miserable.

Now that's what I'm talking about

Eve (2022)

Episode 1 - Liyan's New Beginning

Seo Ye-ji (It's Okay to Not Be Okay) plays Lee Ra-el, the woman seeking revenge on the riches people of Korea. Why? What did the riches people of Korea ever do to her?
She witnessed the richest man in Korea have his associates beat her dad to death attempting to coerce him to sign a made up confession of corporate espionage.
We are introduced to the richest man in Korea earlier in the episode on a golf outing. A whistleblower is tied up and kneeling in from of a net while another man hits golf balls at him. Richest man seems disappointed with the golfer's accuracy, so he is knelt down besides the whistleblower. Blood is thrown on both, and in the spirit of Mr. Burns (The Simpsons), "Release the hounds." (He says something different.) They are even Dobermans.

The wife of Kang Yoon-kyum tells her daughter "What have I told you about making friends with poor children? I will find friends for you."
<bitter sarcasm>What a charming mother....</bitter sarcasm>

The show makes it very apparent which side is the Evil side, but I could be wrong. There could be a twist!

I initially was not sure if I would watch the series because the first five minutes briefly made me wonder if this was a Korean version of Dallas or Dynasty, evening operas from the 1980s. I admit I had a certain distain for those shows back then. Since then, I could care less. Didn't Maggie shoot J.R.?

So far so good for the first episode of the season.

Castaway Diva (2023)

Episode 1 - Inside the Fish Tank vs. Outside the Fish Tank

I confess that when Park Eun-bin first shows up on the screen, I feel a little joy inside.
