This is quite possibly the saddest, shortest list I've ever had since I've started doing this - and it's two months' worth! Part of it is that I've been writing a lot more lately, but a lot of my TV consumption, which has always been the biggest part, hasn't been stuff that I'd keep track of here. I watched quite a few of the 9/11 docs, then watched all the JonBenét specials (and reading about both of those on the internet has cut into my reading books time, too). However, by far the biggest drain on my time is all the time I've spent lately watching and reading political bullshit. I've never really followed the elections all that closely before, but I've just been captivated this year. I read a comment somewhere comparing it to the ancient Romans and their love of gladiator matches; we're all just waiting for more and more blood.

Date: 2016-10-13 08:00 pm (UTC)Galavant is a medieval musical show, sort of like Holy Grail, really clever/catchy musical numbers (Alan Menken!) and very self-aware in a "Why am I singing this to you out loud?" sort of way. Like, the first episode of the second season had an entire song celebrating the fact that they didn't get canceled. It's a goofy fun show, I watched it while grading. It's two seasons, only like 18 eps total, I think. It's on Netflix.
