1) I started reading a book! Can you believe it? I'm 30 pages in, though, so... let's see how this goes.
2) Here are two musical sequences that have bewitched me recently that I watch on YouTube at least once every other day:
3) Comedies I've been watching lately: Corporate on The 'Mount, Loot and The Afterparty on Appledy, Housebroken on Hu-lu, and, of course, the new season of WWDitS.
4) Drama-adjacents I've been watching lately: the new season of Reservation Dogs, the Tennant era of Doctor Who.
5) Prepare ye:
a) Stede's new look is Errol Flynn inspired, right? Do I have to watch Captain Blood to be sure?
b) Oh, that neckerchief... well-played, David Jenkins and Crew. I knew they'd bring the red silk back.
I imagine I know where he gets that neckerchief and says good-bye to his two chandeliers (that's overkill!)
[clears throat] A-woooooooooga. Dear TV Gods, thank you for the apartheid movie Rhys and Minnie Driver shot together for making this happen.
a) Loving Jackie's sequined bolero jacket and new hairdo.
b) The look of love always looks so appealing on Taika's face.

Date: 2023-09-11 11:29 am (UTC)My working theory is that Stede discovers the red silk whilst at Anne Bonny's shop, which seems to be full of things tossed from the Revenge. But, yknoe, I've had time on my hands and am probably thinking about this too much.

I'm trying so hard not to speculate or consider spoilers even remotely because I feel like I've been waiting for this season of television so desperately for so long that I just want to go in totally blind. We'll see how that goes over the next month. 😬
p.s. This is so random but I've been looking at your shows you've been watching recently, as mentioned in your entries, and we have so much overlap! So I am wondering! Have you watched Ghosts BBC?
