What are you watching these days?

@Carolla -- and anyone else, if you have britbox, watch Riot Women.

This is what I said about it on Facebook:

If you have BritBox or access to the BBC, do not miss Riot Women.
It’s a fabulous series — and it’s already been renewed for a second season.

This is classic BBC quality: layered, intelligent writing by Sally Wainwright (Happy Valley, Last Tango in Halifax), and a cast who bring real nuance and depth to every role.

On the surface, it’s about a group of women who form a band for a charity event. But that description barely scratches the surface. The stories weave through so many aspects of women’s lives that it’s impossible to pin it down to just one theme.

It’s angry.
It’s beautiful.

One small example of the brilliance:
In an early episode, they’re writing a song and include the insult “You’re just like your mother.” The line gets cleverly flipped. Then later in the series, it’s turned again — deepening the meaning and giving it emotional weight you didn’t expect.
The show is gritty, hilarious, clever, funny, rocking, and sad — often all at once.
Highly recommend.

I watch out ... having being compacted and driven in ... compacts are like sects!

I used to love British television back in the day, mostly via PBS. Monty Python and Dr. Who were two of my formative shows. Now I rarely watch any scripted television.

There were those lookers ... also on the spy shows ...
