Been watching (classic) Doctor Who since December. I’m in the middle of season 13 right now and have been going so fast that I have to purposefully try to pace myself.

Recently also started watching the Degrassi classic shows and am already nearly done with Degrassi Junior High. (I probably won’t watch TNG, at least not for a while.)

Acquired a short-term sub to Hayu in Canada to binge all the Below Deck seasons. Amazingly great trash television.

Started watching 1883 a few days ago. It took a while to get past Elsa's absolutely horrible attempt at a southern accent, but other than that it is pretty good (but extremely depressing as others have said).

So that's last weekend, what are you watching this weekend?

I could recommend Eureka.

Started WeCrashed last night and watched the first 2 episodes. I'm enjoying it. I'll watch almost anything with Anne Hathaway in it, and Jared Leto more often than not in this show looks like he's auditioning for the Jim Carrey bio-pic.

I just don’t understand why you left out the classics?

She liked Star Wars, we don't want to turn her off to it and then break up with her soon to be husband, and last but not least, seeing her on tick tock or some other form of social media burning all of his Star Wars toys, shirts, and one of a kind memorabilia!

The Ewok Adventure and Star Wars Droids

MV5BNTVkMDQ3ZTAtYzI0NC00MTk0LWFiMzUtMmZhY2E1NjE1Mjk0XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNjc5NjEzNA@@._V1_.jpg


could be an option, but I had the missfortune to see The Holiday Special and rhett7660 would absolutely be right in what would happen!

I remember working almost 15 years ago with an even bigger Star Wars fan who didn't know about the existens of The Holiday Special. After I informed him that it existed and really warned him that it was BAD, he still went out of his way to see it in that weekend....On Monday I had lost a collegiate friendship!

Yes it’s not quite aged well as the original trilogy!

Halo anyone? Not sure about it yet. Looks kinda good, some Mandalorian vibes, hard to tell where this is going. I played the original game and the second one I think, was ok but nothing special.

Also From. I like it a lot. Mix of Lost and Wayward Pines, it's a little slow. 8 episodes in and we haven't learned much about the mysteries yet. Two eps left this season, so they'll have to give us something unless season 1 is setting up things and some progress is made in season 2 (if they renew it).

Yes, watched it. Wasn't too impressed at first, but then it got better. Was left wondering at the end where I had seen this storyline before, and realised that it was "The Bad Bunch", but with real people...

Just binged Reacher over 3 nights. Wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did.

We loved and we were in the same boat, we didn't expect to like it as much as we did. The person who plays Jack is entertaining and really good. We can't wait for season two!

We don't have Paramount Plus yet, on the fence about getting it, but I really want to see what they do with this series!!

That's what I thought as well. Started off a little boring, then it took off. Wonder if it's a fan service series, it's been in development for so long. They did the same to Witcher, which I found kind of interesting but in the end so confusing and boring that I was glad it's over (not seen season 2 yet, not sure if I ever will).
