I just finished watching the Malverde: El Santo Patrón series on Netflix.

I'm currently watching Have Gun Will Travel.

I have fond memories of the show but now have the theme song stuck in my head. Damn ear worms!

Have Gun Will Travel reads the card of a man.
A knight without armor in a savage land.

His fast gun for hire heeds the calling wind.
A soldier of fortune is the man called Paladin.

Paladin, Paladin
Where do you roam?
Paladin, Paladin,
Far, far from home.

Full version continues:

He travels on to wherever he must.
A chess knight of silver is his badge of trust.
There are campfire legends that the plainsmen spin.
Of the man with the gun, of the man called Paladin.

Paladin, Paladin
Where do you roam?
Paladin, Paladin,
Far, far from home.

Far from home,
Far from home.

Anyone watch all those lifetime Christmas movies?

I kinda like them….

I watch them with my elderly mom. We always enjoy poking fun at the cookie cutter aspect of the shows.

Never saw the TV show, but I did hear some of the old radio shows from this show.

Enjoyed them.

Growing up, Have Gun Will Travel was my dad's favorite western.

So, I'm slightly embarrassed. I had commented a bit ago that "Yellowstone" would be starting in a few hours. Uhmm...today is only Saturday.  It won't be on till tomorrow. Oopsie.    A senior moment strikes again.

We are watching the new season of The Crown.

I am binging Stargete SG-1 one last time... it's leaving Netflix at the end of the month.

It is cookie cutter, but fun. Plus, I do enjoy seeing all the pretty houses and Christmas trees.

I really like Christmas. Always feel sad  I never had a tree. But I do put out milk and a cookie for Santa, and watch the Yule Log on tv.

Never had a tree ! Wow, you have missed the tradition of driving on a highway and seeing a good place to get off and sneak next to road to cut a tree down on the cheap... lol... we got a lot of Christmas trees that way... Yep... risking fines everytime... but it was called making do on the cheap. On a good year, you didn't have to run for your life from a mean bull in the pasture you crossed to get to the trees.

Now why does Hallmark not make a good movie like Christmas on the cheap in the deep South. I have only had like 3 Christmases with snow (or just flakes of snow).

Last night I watched History of The Eagles and then Prancer.


Dish is forcing me to upgrade my equipment and I'll lose all the stuff stored on my DVR. These two shows don't get much air time.

Ah, the legendary Marty, the story that single thirtysomethings like me always dream of coming true.

[goatprairie]

Growing up, Have Gun Will Travel was my dad's favorite western.

Mine as well. HGWT many times had different kinds of plots. Not everything was solved by Paladin shooting a bad guy...although many times that's what happened.
One episode was about Paladin and a bunch of people traveling over a dangerous mountain pass whether they should try to rescue a person who had fallen off the mountain trail. I won't give away the ending but it was not what you'd expect.
It was a more intelligent than usual kind of western.

I've never seen Marty. I prefer watching Ernest Borgnine as a villain. Like as one of the villains in "Bad Day At Black Rock" which I watched again the other day for the umpteenth time. I never get tired of watching it. Ernie's big scene in the town's cafe with Spencer Tracey is a classic as is the movie as a whole.

I will bite, thanks for the suggestion (downloading now)... The "Marty" movie is more of a sweet romantic movie staring not your typical main lead (Ernest ain't exactly a Hollywood hunk, just more a hunk with a good character face). The role for the plain Jane lady (Betsy Blair) wasn't exactly what I call well cast, she was a beauty in her own right (married Gene Kelly at age 17 I think).

Ancient Apocalypse documentary series on Netflix.

Very interesting.

Marty is a real good movie, I saw it in a film class and really liked it.

I do enjoy watching shows on Food Network.

The downside is they make you hungry….

There is a technological futuristic dystopian series on Prime called 'The Peripheral' which is pretty good.
Don't want to say too much about it for spoilers, but it has to do with VR, time travel, and androids.
Techies will like it, even though parts of it are difficult to follow.

Tonight & tomorrow:
"How I Live Now" (2013), some kind of apocalyptic film...

[libertybele]

We sat and watched "Where the Crawdads Sing" the other night.  The movie was good but definitely didn't do the book justice.
