    I watched:

    GRANT GUSTIN OPENS UP ON THE BURNOUT TOWARDS THE END OF FLASH:
    Grant Gustin (The Flash, Glee) joins us in person this week for a deeper conversation exploring how impostor syndrome limits new creative exploration and how he's shaken perceptions over the last few years. Grant talks about
    his legacy as The Flash and how he was ready for the show to come to a close during the last couple seasons after some much needed perspective. We also
    talk about the power of saying No, his prep for singing TV episodes during Glee, and performing theater for Spielberg. https://youtu.be/rVOVRMot09s?si=bvOfaMlXyEy56UEE

    DOCTOR WHO WILL ONLY GET WORSE IF RTD HAS HIS WAY | HERE'S A RANT ABOUT MY *LOATHING* OF THIS *CRAP*!:
    Doctor Who is as dead as a franchise can be, but Russell T. Davies has
    revealed he has some new ideas for how to make things even worse moving
    forward if Disney Plus let's him have his way. Let's hope they don't let Davies wheel the TARDIS coffin out of the mortuary for one more go at it,
    but in the meantime, here's just a taste of what's to come if he gets his
    wish, right from his own mouth! #doctorwho #disneyplus #bbc https://youtu.be/dSarlgj-0R4?si=o9C_PoXY2LVRyISz

    Despite Tuesdays usually being one of my "easier" days, I had to have a
    special meeting yesterday right at 8am, and decided to run errands after
    that and before returning to work, so I didn't really get through much
    TV viewing yesterday:

    soaps: DOOL - Mon's ep. Nothing really important happened this ep. At
    the end, Tate catches Doug III in Holly's room in his scivvies (I
    couldn't tell if Doug dropped his trou to make that happen!). Holly runs
    across NuSophia. Kate stews over EJ's shooting (they want us to think
    that she did it). More drama with the Philip stuff...
    GH - Mon's ep. It's Ava at her best!! After finding out that the
    car's brake lines were cut, Ava pumps Lizzie for info (but never tells
    Lizzie about the cut brake lines), and then fills Ric in on what she
    found out - Ric is livid, wanting Kristina to be arrested, but Ava says
    "Let's not be too hasty!" as she plots some kind of scheme! (Ha!)...
    Meanwhile, Lucky is still an absolutely pathetic character, knuckling
    under to a wretched Kristina, rather than following through on turning
    her in. Then, Kristina is all lovey-dovey with Molly (can't wait until
    Molly finds out that Kristina nearly killed her father and finally
    shit-cans Kristina out of her life!). Joss, who wasn't "playing spy"
    this time, blasts NuJack Brennan for dating her mom Carly. Brennan warns
    Anna that the ADA is out to get her, and then Anna confronts the ADA
    herself, afterwards warning Jason about it and agreeing to keep all of
    their interactions secret and non-public now.

    Outside of that, I left LMN on as background noise after I got home from
    work.
    LMN has now taken to an unwelcome scheduling change - I think
    they've gone to a "true-crime Monday" format, running only true-crime
    docudrama flicks on Mondays, which makes LMN unwatchable to me on Mondays.
    Luckily, they were running good, normal schlocky flicks on Tuesday,
    so it was fine to leave LMN on!

    I watched:

    Daredevil: Born Again - "Isle of Joy" - Episode 8, the penultimate
    episode. I'm not sure how to describe this one, especially without
    spoilers. But bullseye is back. And he was constantly lurking in the background while Matt and Kingpin do their dance. It was an OK episode,
    but we are already at the penultimate episode and this season there has
    been very little actual Daredevil in costume and almost no Punisher. I
    was expecting a bit more for this season. Perhaps they are saving it
    all for the finale.

    The main issue with the Flash is that the “message got VERY REPETITIVE” you can only have so many seasons
    and so many episodes before you run out of ideas. That’s why we have the meme quotes of:

    “Run Barry run”
    “You’re the lightning I’m the lightning rod”
    “I can’t go that fast” proceeds to goes that fast
    “We can’t kill Thawne (cause we need him in future seasons for views”

    So on and so forth.

    Doctor Who ended in 2017 when they announced Jodie as taking over the role.
    We knew what was coming, and it proved to be even worse than we could have thought. The show has been woke parody since 2018. So in that regard the
    BBC and Davies can do whatever they want, it's not and has never been Doctor Who. But any revamp/reboot/restart 100% requires hard retcon of everything produced after Capaldi and starting fresh from his end. I hope that happens some day, but it's going to be a while before that day comes.

    At the very least, but there are other social media nuisencers who deserve the same fate.

    Dems & the media want Trump to be more like Obama, but then he'd
    have to audit liberals & wire tap reporters' phones.
