Got to say, Aussie comedies are on a roll lately. The new season of Fisk is hilarious and the eleventh season of Spicks and Specks is still slaying. I frankly need a laugh, so I’ve been watching those. And for some reason I’ve been nostalgic lately so I’ve dug out some of those early aughts fun cable light dramas. Burn Notice, Leverage, Psych, White Collar, Monk, and such. Nothings to heavy, a story gets told in 40 minutes and maybe there’s some kind of season long thing taking up 5-10 minutes in it, but no puzzle boxes or epic character arcs or anything. They’re like the TV version of a wine cooler, no depth, or heaviness but light and fizzy and fun. Maybe I’m just a basic bitch but I like fun.

Those USA Network shows really were great. Even when one of them ended it was like "That's ok, a new show with loosely the same premise will take it's place". Burn Notice and White Collar being my favorites.
Watched all of Arcane s1 yesterday, and it was good. I’ve recently gotten on an animated kick, so if you’re into that, the show holds up.
Started watching How to Die Alone over the weekend, and it’s better than I expected. Also the first couple episodes to the English Teacher have been pretty good.
On another note, I caught up on/finished(?) The Ark. it’s not good, but I can’t quit it.
