Misc. television, no spoilers
Dec. 3rd, 2023 09:59 pmWe're watching the 2nd Dr Who special, and boy, it's different in tone from the first one, isn't it? Wonder what the 3rd one is going to be like. (Also: "mavity" - ha.) (I'll refrain from saying more right now.)
Anybody else have problems with AMC+ lately? Apparently it's a known issue, but my husband the Walking Dead fan really cares. It stops at the loading screen and just doesn't go anywhere. There's steps you're supposed to follow but so far it hasn't worked. We'll get it sorted out eventually, I'm sure. Every age has its frustrations, I guess.
(Once in a while I stun some much-younger person by telling them about how I remember when we got five channels instead of just three, just for fun. Around... 1970, I think?)
I tend to just start writing and then decide what I'm talking about, so apparently tonight I'm talking about TV. We watch most of our TV on Fubo, because that's the one that has most of the sports stuff, but we still have Disney+ and the Max/Hulu bundle and (some of the time) AMC+. No Netflix, we seem to be able to live without that one for the most part. We were going to cancel Max but then they did that bundle thing that was pretty cheap so we kept it, and I've been watching OLD Dr Who episodes (meaning Nine/Ten/Eleven, not the ones even older than that) ever since. I guess if I keep going I'll get back to Twelve and Thirteen eventually. I'm just trying to hit the highlights at the moment.
Typically we both watch a ton of news, but that's so depressing right now that I can't sit and let it run all day like I'm prone to sometimes. I just dip in & out of it occasionally. Which is probably better for me anyway!
Oh, here's another weird thing: every time we exit Fubo, it takes us to freaking UFC fighting. I don't know why. Surely that's not really the default.
I think I'll go watch the rest of the Longhorn game from yesterday. (I got spoiled by e-mail before I ever even turned the TV on - thank you, University Co-op.)
