Movies watched

  • Corporate Animals - Such a weird tone. Did not like…

  • Masterminds - A better comedy, but not great.

  • Porno - Not as comedic as we were hoping for.

  • Star Trek: Generations - Decent. Like a long episode of Next Gen.

TV Shows watched 

  • Holey Moley S1-2 - Our fun silly show!

  • Broadchurch S3 - I was a little disappointed in the resolution of the storyline.

  • Cosmos S2 - Oh so good.

  • Battlestar Galactica S1 - As we finished Broadchurch, J had me start this show.

  • Below Deck S5-6

Comments - Holy cow! Still powering through books while social distancing. I need to do better at reading my own books (my constant refrain), but I’m excited about all the books I’ve been reading.
