I tried The Rehearsal because I enjoyed the other recommendations on a “Best TV Shows of 2025” list. The summary didn’t say much beyond, “the less you know, the better”, and that’s probably right.

Since I’m a little bit sick and drowsy, I’m watching Prehistoric Planet 2.
David Attenborough is narrating as a more earnest version of his brother Richard Attenborough, who played the crazy old dinosaur enthusiast in Jurassic Park.
The production values are very good, and the prehistoric creatures seem lifelike and convincing, but I can’t help thinking that they are making up some shit.
Sparky hasn’t gotten a derogatory nickname in a while, so I’m calling him a ‘red belly’. Or maybe enhance his last insulting nickname. He can be a ‘red belly skunk pig’.
That’s better. Reminiscent of Biden calling some random guy, a “dog faced pony soldier”.
In Kanji, Sparky’s Japanese code name is written like this.
Practice writing those characters.
Everything to know about ‘Stargate’ from Amazon MGM Studios
The Stargate franchise never had the high profile of Star Trek or Star Wars, and there hasn’t been a new TV show or movie in 15 years, but it was inevitable that a studio would pick up this IP.
You’d have to be pretty dumb to get excited about any new adaptation until more is known, but I am cautiously optimistic.
It’s embarrassing to be watching a reality show. I watched the first season of Road Rules. That was the last, and maybe only, reality show that I followed for a whole season. That was thirty years ago.
I’ve got a big project to do today, but I’m watching Celebrity Traitors.
There is a lot going on in the world, but sometimes, you want to watch something good and dumb.
Mike Tyson’s Mysteries is easy to describe, but hard to explain why it’s so good.
Peacemaker Season 2 is out, and getting mixed reviews. Some people are skipping it entirely because it sounds so bad and they are sick of weak superhero movies and TV shows. I liked season 1, so tried it out. Season 2 is better than people are saying, but James Gunn made some odd decisions.
Alyssa Milano removes her breast implants: ‘Letting go of the body that was sexualized and abused’
This is dumb, but her sanctimony is so irritating. Alyssa Milano got a boob job and it paid off when she starred on Charmed for eight years. The show was about witches, romance and female empowerment featuring three sisters with ample charms that were generously displayed. It had something for everyone.
Incredibly, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is on it’s third season and it’s still excellent. Many science fiction shows start out bad. Some, like Star Trek: Picard, are bad for two seasons, then have a good season. Some, start strong, but fizzle out, like The Mandalorian or Stranger Things. The Orville was good for all three seasons, but it wasn’t part of a franchise. That’s easier because there isn’t franchise lore that has to be respected.
