trouble watching tv...
I haven't been watching much tv; it took me the entire month subscription to Hulu to watch the 13 episodes of Abbott Elementary (22 minutes each) and ten episodes of Only Murders in the Building, season two (between 30-40 minutes each). I'm not sure if it's the health stuff or something else. That's plenty of TV, though; I guess I put pressure on myself to watch more, knowing that I only had a month (for now) to watch stuff on that platform.
Anyway, back to OMITB: I did enjoy it. The middle of season two was a bit laggy, but it pulled off a solid ending. The main draw continues to be having Steve Martin and Martin Short running around New York City acting very silly.
Oh! I also watched that documentary about Dana Carvey's failed primetime TV show from the 90s. The doc was called Too Funny to Fail: The Life & Death of the Dana Carvey Show. Recommended, though probably not with little kids around.
Books: Andrea Penrose has a murder mystery series known as Wrexford & Sloane, set in Regency England. I finally got around to reading book two, which was solid. Penrose does well with characterization, prose, and plot. There's a very slow build romance happening; currently expecting book three to start with a major setback in that area, because there are already six books published in the series. Heh. Can't have that love match happen too fast, y'know!
