Skipped today's matches for much needed rest, but the results don't surprise me based on last season. City and Pool have a strong start this year. I suspect United will falter much again this year and be in the high 10s in total pointage, or slide off into the low teens.
I’ve discovered a little gem of a programme; Mortimer & Whitehouse; Gone Fishing. I am not into fishing at all and know nothing about it but this programme (BBC 2) is simply delightful. The two friends have both had heart problems and travel around to some wonderfully beautiful places and just try and catch fish (that they then release). They also cook up some nice healthy food and stay in some strange places (like a bus converted into a hotel). The combination of the lovely scenery and the friendly banter between them makes it just a lovely, happy, feel good programme.

Bob Mortimer is... something else. LOL Wine Show with Matthew Rhys is excellent, too. I highly recommend it.
Monty Don’s French Gardens (2017)- If you want a serene limited series that transports you, check this out on Netflix. But I found an episode on YouTube:
If you want a titillating historical representation of Louis XIV, check out Versailles (2015-18, Netflix). A decent story although I can’t vouch for it’s historical accuracy.

The New Ghost Hunters (2019) on A&E, started in August. Ready to be scared? 
More importantly, real or just another reality TV scam? Some of the dialog is a bit scripted and smells funny.

I have it loaded and ready to go.
1st Episode at least.
Mixed reviews, but the period appeals…

It's fun, it's entertainment, it's as "real" as your own beliefs [in the ideas presented] are
They came back to St. Augustine, the lighthouse ... it's pretty spooky
We're going to Halloween Horror Nights this year, it's all real, and so very scary ...

I don't listen to reviews, but the ones I've seen of this from SciFi fans have been overwhelmingly positive. Professional reviewers are asshats on their best day and usually savage films that are actually decent or even excellent. Carnival Row is a great fantasy flick, even with Cara Delevine in it.
I've been seeing ads for this everywhere. I guess it can't hurt to check it out.
We're finishing Mindhunter S2 (so very highly recommended), and then we have these 3 on deck, in no particular order:
It was a really good series and well worth watching. The story really developed and left us wanting more!
I have been watching the Ken Burns Country Music documentary. It is excellent and well worth watching.
I saw that it was available earlier today. I'll have to check it out.
Vietnam , Ken Burns.
IMO... Painful to bare, I watched it alone. It made me furious all over again.
The sponsor list that rolled at the beginning of each chapter kind of told us where this might go.
Not a word about the big $$ that insured this horror would go on and on.
An American Tragedy, and a hollow lament. a2
