Sneakypete wonders:
"BTW,how the HELL did you manage to track that one episode down?"

I remembered the episode name.
Then, the searchin' was easy!

Back around when I retired, I managed to scrounge up ALL the original Twilight Zone episodes, from all five years (even the hard-to-find one-hour episodes from the fourth season).
Then, I watched them over time, in their original order.

Some I hadn't seen since their original airings back in the early 60's.
I was surprised how much I still remembered!

His shows were known for their twists at the end. Not every episode had one, but most of them did. I haven't gotten to the leg of lamb one yet. I seem to remember watching that one, but we're talking 60+ years ago. I still remember getting pretty scared over a ghost episode.

Do you remember ghost stories on the radio? Westerns? Detective stories? Man, I ain't thought of all that in a long while. used to listen to radio stories in bed at night... before Coast2Coast with Art Bell, which became my normal night time radio companion. I STILL do that, btw... I have a tablet and listen to things well into the night with the tablet upside down so I can't see the light of it.

Of course,"Frank" will live forever in MY mind as living proof that there is really no such thing as a level too low for some people to slither under. Frank was probably THE most despicable character to appear on a tv series.

Absolutely.

This past weekend, watched "Greenland", a 2020 film about a comet that strikes Earth and a family's attempt to escape to shelter in Greenland.

It held my interest, and actually seemed plausible.

Enjoying the hell out of Netflix's Series of The Lincoln Lawyer.

Just picked up watching Absentia again. Took a long break after Season 1. It stars Stana Katic, for all you Castle fans out there.

BTW got Paramount recently and watched 'Discovery'. Not for me. Too deep and preachy, concentrating more on 'personal relationships' than the action. If you are looking for a politically correct sermon, Discovery is the show for you. 'Picard' was equally unimpressive. Storylines were not engaging to me anyway, and Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan) looks like a biker crackwhore.

Did enjoy HALO. HALO has been called the best video game based movie ever and I agree. It kept my interest and did not preach Liberalism to me. Today, that is a good show.

You had a string of music videos posted in this thread. I moved them to the running music thread for you.

Currently watching “Corner Gas” on Prime

Just in case any of you missed it for some reason,do yourself a favor and watch "The Wire". Probably THE best crime show ever shown on tv. It broke my heart when I watched the last episode,and then recognizing there were going to be no more.

It is a crime show based in Baltimore,and the writers and actors pulled no punches.

The Orville season 3 just dropped on Hulu.

@sneakypete

I can borrow DVD’s of “The Wire” from my local library. Thanks to your recommendation, I just reserved them .

Enjoy! Maybe the best damn police/crime show that has ever aired. First class in EVERY respect.

Tonight & tomorrow:
"Z for Zacharia" -- post disaster-apocalypse film set in the future.

There is a very graphic, very gross, movie on NF called The Platform.
Intellectuals call it a must watch movie. Supposedly it is a dissertation on elites vs. common, and capitalism vs. socialism. I watched it and am not sorry I did. Difficult to call it a 'good' movie or 'entertaining'. It is more like necessary Eng. Lit. homework so to speak with an ambiguous ending.

If you want to have fun, there is a show on NF called "The floor is lava!". It is a fun game show.

I saw the first season of Lava. Fun, but those poor contestants must have been black and blue.

Has anyone seen Borgen on Netflix?

Anyone have a link they don't mind sharing for "2000 Mules" documentary... PM me if you have time. Thanks ! It has eluded me thus far.

Watching Matt Walsh's documentary called "What is a Woman?".... So far (15 minutes in) it is great. Still need a line (PM me) if anyone has a link to "2000 Mules" I could use...
