I unsubscribed fromPeacock when I discovered it was impossible to turn off autoplay. I may come back for specific series, but it won’t be it’s not a place where I’ll just try new things.

“did Judy Greer have some sort of scheduling conflict this season?”

I wish TV shows would summon Siri with something other than “Hey Siri”. That can be nasty when you have an Apple HomePod in the same room as a TV.

I think the it’s pretty obvious that the Kurt’s plan had nothing to do with Iris:

As one who commuted between the Valley and the Westside in many years ago, I remembered several of the streets in Larry’s shortcut. Some of Larry’s didn’t exist in my time and he did skip a few, but it looked basically accurate.

The Times has some comments from Lewis: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/03/arts/television/damian-lewis-billions-finale.html

Sabbath dinner not sedar

I have Apple HomePods sitting on top of the front speakers on my A/V system. When Roy started the playlist, the HomePods actually started playing it. I didn’t realize it until I paused the show to read the tweets on Nate’s phone and the music kept playing.

Actually, the old man is Glen Carroll. Anyway, there’s another issue here: why was the gun loaded? The man kept his gun as a keepsake when he retired from the police department of another town.

The music over the closing credits seemed to be a variation on the opening notes of the theme from the Perry Mason TV show, but, by never getting to the actual theme, built anticipation like crazy.

I thought that the agent had convinced Jane that the book should be modified and sold as a telenovela treatment but it was back to a book contract this week. Did I miss something?

Like this?

Nice ER reunion.:

According to my TiVo, this episode was originally scheduled for November 1. It was pre-emted for the 6th game of the World Series. So, the night shift wasn't actually much of a callback.

So, wouldn't the logical thing be for Frances to take the same salary at Sotheby's as she is currently getting? So Sotheby's doesn't appear to be doing something under the table, and Frances is in no worse a financial position than if she keeps the status quo.

The show isn't supposed to be topical, but there was, of course, this story earlier this month:

They really cheapd out on the location shooting. Could they use the actual State Capitol rather than Pasadena City Hall to denote Sacto? When showing Brett is heading to north and several hours have passed, they pick a freeway sign within a few miles of the supposed home in Eagle Rock? Could they have gotten someone…
