What will you be watching on TV tonight (2024)?

We watched Barbie the other night. I was really looking forward to it, because Ryan Gosling was hilarious promoting it on all the talk shows, but I didn’t find it all that good at all. It was extremely disappointing.

Last night for NYE we watched Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.

It was alright, I wasn’t into it for the first half but it picked up quite a bit in the second half.

It was definitely better than Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, but that isn’t exactly a high bar…

The offerings on our local cabletv are appalling. Re-runs of sitcoms or TV series, re-runs of sporting events and some wonderful new films like "Lethal Weapon 4", "The Fugitive" and "Gladiator"

I‘m watching Better Call Saul.
Odenkirk rocks.

We finished up The Crown yesterday and finally started Downton Abbey, and after just one episode, we’ve spotted three plot points that appear to be direct lifts of ‘70’s series Upstairs, Downstairs.

Tonight…we’re still watching Hallmark Christmas movies. Watching the ads for other Hallmark movies (Christmas and otherwise), Scotland seems to be their international location of choice this season. Every other movie is set in Scotland!

DD and I binged Saul.

I‘m not surprised it’s very enjoyable

Has anyone seen ‘Rescue Dawn’ ?
No spoilers or plot at all please
If you have seen it did you think it was worth watching?
It’s a 2006 film I think.
Trailer below, which I’ve watched only a few seconds of because they generally give too much away!

Just waiting for tea to finish brewing, then it’ll be a presentation of Agatha Christie’s Witness for the Prosecution - I’ve probably seen at least six versions of this, but I haven’t seen this one.

Don't leave that pot unattended, you know how prone to poisoning people Agatha is.

Back program of couples come dine with me. Some are hilarious.

School boy error -
Finally succumbed to a paramount+ subscription because it was the only place I could watch 'Rescue Dawn' and Mr SSOAP likes 'Yellowstone'

I pay for a years subscription at the reduced rate to then discover that film is geotagged and not available in this region. Sod google and their damnable decision to stop UK specific search results!
Went to cancel it but the disappointment on MR SSOAP's face and protests about 'Star Trek Strange New Worlds' means I now have another bl**dy streaming subscription

I got a tv, but that's it.
I can connect it to my laptop and watch dvd's or youtube that way, but I hardly ever do.
Maybe it is time to watch all my monty python movies again

Yup - MrsT has Starz specifically for Outlander and we pay a godawful amount for Sling to have Hallmark (though I like TCM)…and I think she just signed us up for Peacock!
