I’ve been chipping away at a few shows and caught Cruel Summer, which was a little disjointed with the multiple timelines but I’ll check again. And the combo of The Parker Andersons and Amelia Parker which was sweet but not something I need right now. I’ve been sticking with L&O: OC, Rebel, Home Economics, The Equalizer, Clarice, and Kung Fu to see where things lead and barely hanging in with Debris, which is an interesting premise but I can’t seem to care. Sometimes I do just want to watch tv rather than yet another streaming show for some reason. Dropped Chad as I can’t take another cringeworthy coming of age comedy. Looking ahead I’ll go back in with Mythic Quest while I still have Apple TV. I’ve never started Handmaid’s Tale, I feel like I heard great things about the first season and then never heard about it again.

I caught up on much-recommended Derry Girls on Netflix which was cute. And though Younger returns this week on Paramount+ I’m going to hold out until it’s found elsewhere (should come back to TV Land later this year) and will tune in for the special ep from Mythic Quest though may hold out until the second season is here. And apparently, the series finale for Queen Sugar is coming down but I have the whole season so far saved, busy busy..
