Ray Donovan and Billions are re-watchable. The latest season of Curb Your Enthusiasm has some good laughs.

You can also teach your dog and cat new tricks. Your pet hamsters too. I am thinking of taking up beekeeping.

Last weekend one of the networks showed the Falcons/Patriots Superbowl.

I watched that and enjoyed it...

though I’m not interested in that Brady/Mickelson vs. Manning/Woods golf match that is being planned.

Got to love Darlene. :-)

Watching Luther now which has some quirks and twists. Not stellar but watchable.

There’s lots of stuff out there but quality level varies and watchability depends on how desperate you are.

I can do without the gay FBI agent who is completely miscast, but it’s a decent diversion from the virus. I’m going to watch the Irish series “Blood” on Acorn TV this weekend. Some other movies I plan to watch: Captive State, Mile 22, & The Tracker.

Ozark Season 3 was the best season yet.

If you never watched Westworld, watch Seaon 1 (perfect!). Season 2 is just so-so in my mind, and the jury is out on Seaosn 3.

My opinion: don’t waste your time with shows like Hunters, The Outsider and Man in the High Castle. I tried but they became so boring.

I watched the first season before I sh*t canned Netflix. It was pretty decent.

I recently watched the movie “The Art of Racing in the Rain”. If you are a dog lover you will enjoy it. No nudity or vulgarity. And you will get a little teary.

The Brit series “The Durrells in Corfu” is rather good. Set on a Greek island in the late 30’s. It’s on Amazon, not sure if anywhere else.

Amazon also has all the seasons of the original Bob Newhart Show, some of the best dry comedy ever to show on TV. No one does straight man like Bob Newhart.

The Canadian TV series “Corner Gas” is excellent. Again, great dry humor with no vulgarity.

Outside of the “tube”, if the weather is acceptable, I’m riding my Indian. I did nearly 500 miles this week just tooling around central Kentucky. I asked my wife if she noticed I was gone, she grunted and said a couple of times. Really.

The Queen was good. Like you we’re on Ozarks now.

Old cigarette commercials on Youtube.

Not to mention, the old wine commercials are even funnier.

Tiger King on Netflix is their number 1 show right now. It’s so disturbing that I can neither recommend nor decline to recommend. Once I started, I couldn’t look away. Like a bad accident by the side of the road

Have you seen the mini series The English Game on Netflix? I thought it was excellent. Another good one is 7 Days Out.

"Do you have the self isolation blues? "

Nope. I've been self-isolating for the last 16 years, so this isn't causing me any problems. In fact, there isn't enough time in a day for me to get everything done that I want...watch DVR programs, read books, check FR, work on my family tree, watch Netflix, watch Prime, watch Acorn, watch Apple+ (I got it free for a year), Disney+ (got that free for a year too), watch tv series and movies I've downloaded for years from British torrent sites. Like I said...just not enough time to do it all...not even house cleaning, which of course is at the bottom of the list.

Shut Ozark off quickly. Couldn’t get past the unnecessary, gratuitous gay stuff.

I am diggin Amazon Prime with Green Acres, Honeymooners, Wyatt Earp and Robin Hood (Richard Greene, 1950s). I watch them, 1 episode of each per night, just before bedtime. Each show is only about 15-20 min. long allowing for the excised commercials. I’ve come to look forward to it each night.

Got britbox $6 month some good shows like midsomer murders and father brown. Britbox is the british equivalent of netflix which i am about to get rid of. Of course you can always try reading a good book.

The present season of “Ozark” is great. Once you finish it go to “Better Call Saul” on Netflix and catch up to the present season. For the present season go to AMC, catch the reruns, and then the present episode.

I saw Ozark listed and was like huh?
Then Rush mentioned it today after puking over Snerdley’s infatuation with Tiger King. My son heard it was popular and had it on the other day. I watched 4 minutes and said No Thanks.

So started Ozark tonight.

I really liked Shetland on Amazon two years ago. Was bummed it didn’t go past 3 seasons.

Ignored The Expanse for a while then started watching it a few months ago.
I couldn’t stop and binged all 5 seasons. Only annoying thing is the UN lady with her raspy voice and constant F-bombs to DeNiro level. But the rest was good.

A fun one I binged last year on a Amazon was the seasons of Republuc Of Doyle.
