    I love Survivor. Have you seen Alone? I guess it's been on for years, but have just started binge watching it. I'm on season 3 now. 10 contestants dropped at 10 different wild, remote, and dangerous locations all alone, with survival gear (no guns) and no camera or crews. They do all their own filming, and have an emergency radio and locator beacon for tapping out, or emergency rescue. Whoever lasts the longest wins $500,000. It makes Survivor seem easy....lol. I'm hooked on this show.

    Started Unorthodox. Way different from my normal viewing but SWMBO wanted it and, well, happy wife, happy life. Finished three episodes last night. So far I'd give it a 7 out of 10.

    I've been trying not to binge. No more than two episodes a day.

    finished season 4 of the Flash. Now I need a break form the superhero stuff.

    Started Queen of the South on Netflix to get my cartel fix. Its not Narcos but still not bad

    Been watching a lot of the other TV channels like MeTV, Antenna TV, H&I you know the channels with the good shows like Alice, Three's Company, Gomer Pyle, The Closer, In Plain Site, Carol Burnett, Have Gun Will Travel

    Fargo has been pushed back. :(

    While Fargo's fourth season was previously scheduled to premiere on Sunday April 19, 2020, the show's release date has been pushed back due to the coronavirus outbreak. Production on the show was halted the week of March 8, and FX said that "A new premiere date will be determined once production resumes."

    For Sci-Fi fans I rewatched this episode of Bablyon 5 last night and it is very fitting for the situation we are in now.
    https://babylon5.fandom.com/wiki/Confessions_and_Lamentations

    The background is a plague is wiping out a species, the Markab. Most of the species react to it with shame and believe that it is spread by immoral behavior. At the same time it's not known whether the plague can spread to other species so members of other species take out their anger on the Markab while others blame it on other groups. A Markab doctor at first tries to hide the disease from the rest of the Babylon 5 station because he is ordered to by his government but is convinced that this disease need to be fought even working with aliens. Meanwhile other Markab blaming the disease on immorality from being with alien species isolate themselves in a large prayer group leading to the plague being spread even faster.

    This episode was loosely based on the Black Death and the early days of AIDS where those diseases were seen as divine punishment for immoral behavior and how people in fear look for easy scapegoats.

    It can be purchased on YouTube for $1.99

    Well that sucks. Been rewatching season 3 on FX, it's better than I remember, but still not as good as the first 2 (which I really need to watch again someday).

    Tales From The Loop - Amazon Prime

    This is basically The Outer Limits with connecting stories. It's pretty good. Surprisingly good.

    Wife started watching Schitt's Creek and I got sucked in. The show starts out a little slow but becomes great.

    Wow! Had no idea. We are watching on Netflix. I suppose it'll be at least a year before the series finale is on there.

    Three striking beauties.

    Have always been a fan of Scodelario when I 1st saw her on Skins.

    She should be a big star IMO.
