Super Natural
Introduction I have a lot of series queued up or recorded to watch and every time I start watching one Fiona says that she wants to watch it so I can't until she is ready. I did manage to get through series three of "Killing Eve" and "Fleabag" and came out alive so all is good on that front, but I looked for something else to watch.

Revisiting Nostalgia
For whatever reason The Parent Trap with Lindsey Lohan has made its circulation on TikTok. Not really sure why this gem of a movie has resurfaced but as it was one of my most watched movies in my childhood I thought I would throw my two cents in.

Fast and Furious 8
Okay Fast and Furious 8 did in fact answer some questions, and we are starting to see the overall quality increase. However there were still some glaringly obvious horrible choices in this one as well. That said it was the least offensive Fast and Furious movie thus far.

The Power of 'The Chosen'
Finding something to watch is tough these days, and causes as much existential angst as a last-minute college term paper. Maybe that's an overstatement, but finding the right show can take a lot of time which is frustrating in and of itself. By the time you do decide what to watch, it's usually one in the morning, time to go to bed. You won't, of course. You'll start binging then and there, bargaining with yourself all night long - "Just one more episode. I can get by on only five hours of sleep." Then five becomes four, becomes two, becomes zero. None of that is any guarantee that what you watch will be worth the blaring accusations of the murderous morning sun. Of course, there are other issues when it comes to choosing your latest binge. You might hear about a show from friends or coworkers that's a must-watch, but you don't have that particular streaming service. So you have to find room in your budget for yet another subscription. What if I told you one of the most compelling streaming shows is absolutely 100% free? I know, I know. Lies. Straight-up lies. Nothing is ever free. Even things that seem free have a sneaky paywall waiting to jump out at you like a razor-toothed Demigorgon.
