And we go into extra innings...
extra innings of what? Isn't the World Series over?
I haven't watched Nobody Wants This but I see the previews all the time. He's a cuddly, sexy rabbi, right?

I just watched Inception. Not my cup of tea. If I were younger it could have messed me up.

Yes, it's over. The Dodgers won in 11 innings. Rojas saved the day with a home run to tie it and a great defensive play to keep a run from scoring. I'm shocked that the Dodgers won. It looked like the Blue Jays were going to win the whole time.

Nobody Wants This is probably the hottest show on tv but I'm not into religion and I wouldn't want to watch anything about a rabbi even if he is cuddly and sexy lol. I like my characters messed up like Nurse Jackie.

The plot of Inception sounds really interesting to me. Was it any good? I don't have to worry about it messing me up. The damage has already been done...

Free Axe bodywash at CVS $8.98 for 2 - $5/2 dq = $3.98 and get $4 EB. I'm using the online price. It might be a little higher in-store.

Crest/Oral-B at CVS $7.98 for 2 - $4/2 dq = $3.98 and get $3 EB. Might as well use the $4 from Axe and get some toothbrushes.

We've got the Jake Paul vs Tank Davis fight on the 14th and JDM vs Islam on the 15th. I have to think that a world champion boxer beats Jake Paul so I've got Tank even though he's much smaller. I've got JDM in the UFC fight. Islam is moving up in weight and JDM is a tough dude and bad match-up for Islam. JDM should win the stand-up and I don't think that Islam submits him. Islam is a great fighter so he definitely could win. I'm excited for this fight. I've got Valentina over Zhang in the women's title fight. Zhang is amazing but you can't go up in weight and beat Valentina. I hope that Zhang wins but I don't see it happening.

I watched the final episode of Killing Eve to see if I was missing anything after I quit in the middle of the second season. The episode was horrible. My advice is to watch the first season and skip everything else. The show should've been about Villanelle not Eve. Villanelle is so much more interesting. Eve is very bland.

The best shows I've watched this year are Borgen, Line of Duty, The Queen's Gambit, and Deadwood. The worst show was Yellowstone. The runner ups are 1883 and Downton Abbey. I wanted to like all 3 of these shows but they were such disappointments. Best actor has to go to Ian McShane in Deadwood. There were so many great performances by actresses that it's hard to pick one. I'll go with Julie Comer as Villanelle in Killing Eve. For worst actress, I have Kelly Reilly as Beth in Yellowstone, Fiona Shaw as Carolyn in Killing Eve, and Michelle Dockery as Mary in Downton Abbey. For worst actor, it's Ben Affleck hands down. I know that he's a movie actor but his performance in The Town was so bad that I also have to give it to him for tv.

I'm watching season 3 of Fisk on Netflix. It's a quirky Australian comedy (very short seasons/episodes) that I really enjoy.

Sounds good. I'll give it a try right now. I'll let you know what I think.

I saw the first two episodes. I like her character but I'm not really a sitcom person. I enjoyed the cafe scene where she got kicked out because the other person was being obnoxious. It's how life is sometimes...

I tend to watch lots of the police dramas, dystopian shows, etc. so this is a fun change for me.

Line of Duty is the best police drama I've ever seen. It deals with corruption in the British police department. Borgen is a Danish political drama where a woman from a small political party suddenly becomes the prime minister. Did you see 3%? Parts of it were so good but then it lost its way. I'd give the first season a shot if you like dystopian shows. The world is in chaos and poverty and only a few people who pass a series of tests can move on to a better life.

I'll probably watch The Little Things with Denzel Washington and Rami Malek tonight. I don't know anything about it other than the description looked good. I want to watch Bodkin after that. Has anybody seen Orphan Black? Should I watch it? I'm in bed for most of the day due to my medical situation so I watch a lot of tv.

Line of Duty was fabulous. Haven't watched Borgen - will keep it in mind. Finished Fisk last night. Not too sure what's up next - I've got Netflix for probably a month so focusing there. Probably either Black Rabbit or Sirens.

Sirens wasn't perfect but I had a good time watching it. Milly Alcock was fantastic as Julianne Moore's assistant. If you like Sirens, I'd recommend The Hunting Wives and Dead to Me. Linda Cardellini was so good as Christina Applegate's best friend in Dead to Me. I watched a little bit of Black Rabbit but I gave up on it. I'm not a big Jason Bateman fan and the lighting was too dark. I'm not saying that it was bad or anything. It just wasn't my cup of tea.

I started off watching the Denzel Washington movie last night but then I realized that I had seen it before. I switched over to a movie about a bank robbery that Netflix recommended but it was awful. There are so many bad shows and movies on Netflix. I'd say that only one out of ten is worth watching. I waste too much time on the bad stuff and the good stuff doesn't make up for it.

Line of Duty is a 10 but Borgen is an 11. Tv can't be done any better. It's nothing like an American political show. It's very similar to Line of Duty in a lot of ways. It's almost like the same people made it. It not only explores leadership and politics but also politics and journalism and digs into the difficult choices that everybody has to make and what the consequences of those choices are.
