I finished this a month or so ago, but decided to jot down a couple of thoughts before this totally escapes me.  As I am going through a wrestling phase again (what am I? I teenager? jeez...), I came across this show on Netflix.The story starts 1985 LA. Ruth Wilder is a struggling actress who auditions for a wrestling circuit called Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling (GLOW). She and GLOW's director

I finally caught up with The Acolyte, a Star Wars universe adventure. The series is a typical streamer length (8 episodes) and sadly it was cancelled shortly after it was release.  As the expression goes, the body wasn't even cold yet 🫤.I rather liked the series because it paints a picture that is a bit more complicated than the typical Jedi = Good, Anger/Sith = Bad.

He looks at this pendant he's got and...power goes off!  Oh snap! Flash forward to 15 (or so) years after

Damn, these broadcasters keep taking away shows that I watch leaving television to be a barren wasteland of reality shows and desperate ____________ (fill in the blank with your favorite type of desperate).The latest shows to get the axe are both on ABC. The first show is Defying Gravity. It's about a group of internationally selected astronauts that are on a seven years mission (two more than the
