Caught a brilliant show last night- I think Tom Hanks is the producer, called 'The Eighties'. It covered the tv shows and sports on at that time- have a hankering to see some 'St Elsewhere' again now. Reruns of Cheers and Frasier are on here early in the morning; I usually catch one when I'm getting the first coffee.
 
I haven't found anything new good to watch. I watch 10 minutes and turn it off , so I am rewatching old stuff
DW schooled me on how to pull up Samsung TV Plus on my TV :thumbs:.
Been binge-watching Jeff Dunham on 1338, for over 5 hours:oops:.
His stuff never gets old. 🙂
 
Soon will be one of the very few times per year my TV is even turned on.
The World Series. Just having an antenna I couldn't watch any of the playoff games, but the Series is broadcast on Fox so I'll be glued to the TV at 8:00 PM on game nights.

After that it will be turned off until the Army/Navy game after Thanksgiving.
GO ARMY/BEAT NAVY
 
I hang out on you tube all the time; the premium subscription is worth it, no ads. Lately I've been into "This N That Garage", "Rebuild Rescue" with the story of the free airplane, and Pecos Hank tornado videos. Don't ask me why, tornadoes scare me silly but he's a completely different storm chaser. Beautiful photography, a sense of humor, and science. No screaming or excess hubris like other storm chasers I've seen. And I usually have "Time Team" or "Vice Grip Garage" on at night when I can't sleep.

Love Jeff Dunham. He's coming to Wichita in April. Little granddaughter is dying to go.
We're watching very old "Twilight Zone"

I kept watching.... A total of 9 hours before the first repeat.:thumbs:
It is one of the few things that makes me laugh out loud. 🙂

Funny, tradition on navy ships.. officers/senior ncos root for navy. the rest of the crew roots for army! 😁

The strike in the 80's soured me on baseball. rooted for the cubs when stationed in chicago but almost never watch it.

I really like college football, watch boxing fairly often. In fact, tonight i'm watching a rebroadcast of a college game i didn't see yesterday. Knew it'd be replayed so watched a different game instead.
 
I keep watching this over and over and laughing. My best friend's daughter would probably have reacted the same way.

I find it hard to laugh. It's in fun, but if you don't know and pick the wrong target ........
One may win a stupid prize.....
 
Tonight I'm watching 'Bride of Frankenstein' w/Boris Karloff from 1935. This is the movie Mel Brooks borrowed so many scenes from when making Young Frankenstein.

I used to work in R&D, the 3rd machine my company built became the test bed for all the development that came after. The system became a frankenstein of sorts, parts and pieces spanning several years and models.

We named the system Elsa, (bunch of guys worked on it, of course we gave it a female name...) She was named after Elsa Lanchester, the actress who played the 'Bride of Frankenstein' in the above movie.

@Weedygarden Nope, not me. It's Gu*****, engineer from Austria that trained with me, hired on at the same time. Great guy, his hobby was racing rally cars in the Alps where he lived. I rode with him in a rented toyota corolla once, coming back from lake Tahoe on the back roads. I'm glad i did it... once, and never wanted to do it again! 🤣 It was an hour long, white knuckle ride from ****. The guy knew how to handle a car on mtn roads, I'll give him that! 😁

The book written by Mary Shelly was the first I read... in the third grade no less
 
Since it's halloween... bought a new movie today in town. The Last Voyage of the Demeter.

It's based on a chapter from Bram Stokers Dracula. Just watched it... pretty good, Done very well, enjoyed it. One of the most believable dracula movies i've ever seen.
 
I decided to try a new power cord for my computer. It obviously works. At the store I looked at all the people decked out for halloween. Then I realized I was at Walmart. I don't go there often so I don't know if this is a higher level of bad taste than normal.
