what are you currently consuming?
Key & Peele. we didn't have Comedy Central during their original run, but i enjoyed the clips i saw online. last night i played an episode on a whim, and before i knew it we had watched 3 or 4. i love that each episode has a running theme. the sketches with President Obama in them are bittersweet; very on point, very funny, and a reminder of what it was like to have a smart and competent leader that i was generally proud to have representing me.*
also, the World Cup even though it makes me angry every time it's on.**
what did you recently finish?
well, i think i've finished watching Cloak and Dagger after three episodes. and if i wasn't sitting on the couch spinning, where it was more work to change the show than let it play, i don't know if i would have watched three. it's slooooooooooow. and this Tandy is straight-up horrible. as![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mimerki says, "I would watch the Tyrone show" but we're three episodes in and they're not actually together yet. (in the comics they are both runaways and are forced together by circumstance before they get their powers. this is reminding me of my other unfinished Marvel show, Runaways where i quit watching for similar reasons. i don't mind changes for tv and movies. i mind when those changes aren't entertaining.)
what will you consume next?
i am piling up unwatched superhero shows, but i suspect i'll go back to Brooklyn 99 first. i just don't have the emotional reserves for anything vaguely challenging in terms of threat or interpersonal conflict or world events. and at this rate i may never have it in me to watch The Handmaid's Tale.
*I miss him SO much.
**this is D's last World Cup, and the US isn't there. every time i think about that it pisses me off. to be clear, i'm not upset with any team who made it. they deserve to be there. i'm upset with US Soccer and certain entitled assholes on our national team who didn't take the Hex seriously.
