Good Omens Series 2 Episode 6 — “Every Day” — A Review

29th September, 2023: the Introduction.


It’s official: I’ve been into town, today!

Strangely enough?

It was the second time I got out of the flat, today: I posted a letter, the first time.

The second time was to have an eye test!

The excitement’s overwhelming you, isn’t it … ?

At any rate … ?

I’m now, officially, cooking dinner.

And … ?

Kicking myself for not telling people about this video, by an old friend:


I can’t think who the extra presenter is!

At any rate … ?

Dinner is being cooked.

Stuff has been transferred from an external drive, to TV.app.

And, more specifically?

Once I’ve eaten, I’m going to be settling in with “Every Day”, the last episode of Good Omens … then tell you about it, tomorrow night.

I’ll see you then.

Good Omens Series 2 Episode 5 — “The Ball” — A Review

22nd September, 2023: The Intro.






It’s Friday: and … ?

I officially live in a ground floor flat.

And have just seen three — count them, three — whole police vans go past.

Police Technical Support vans, so you know.

Quite what’s happening at the other ens of my street?

I think I’d rather not know!

~≈👼🏻≈~

At any rate … ?

It’s Friday night.

Which means?

Well, as ever, it’s fish and chips for dinner!

Next … ?

I’ll be watching the next episode of Good Omens: then telling you about it, tomorrow.

Assuming we’ve not been arrested.

Good Omens Series 2 Episode 4 — “The Hitchhiker” — A Review

15th September, 2023: the Introduction.


Right … 

It’s officially Friday.

And … ?

Potatoes have just been chopped up: then boiled … and shoved into the oven.

Fridays, for the past few months have taken a vague form.

Make and eat dinner.

Watching a video whilst having dinner: and old friend is doing some interesting stuff about Judge Dredd.


Then … ?

Once I’ve eaten, washed up, cleaned my teeth, done the hoovering, conquered the world, and ensured a meaningful peace in the Middle East … ?

Or, at least, washed up … ?

I’ll be watching the next episode of Good Omens’ second series: and telling you about it tomorrow night.

I’ll be back, then!

Good Omens Series 2 Episode 3 — “I Know Where I’m Going” — A Review

8th September, 2023: the intro.


Right … I’m writing this on Friday.

And, if you’re in my part of the UK … ?

You’re as aware as I am, that it’s damn hot!


Hot enough to make cooking dinner decidedly uncomfortable.

Frankly?

I can only hope that it cools down at some point over the next few days.

Blistering hot summers aren’t supposed to last into September!

~≈👼🏻≈~

At any rate … ?

I’m writing this on Friday, 8th September: whilst dinner’s doing.

And?

Once that’s done, a video about Judge Dredd commented on, and washing up out of the way … ?

I’ll be posting my reviews of “I Know Where I’m Going”: and find out exactly what that title means!

Back, tomorrow …

Good Omens Series 2 Episode 2 — “The Clue” — A Review

1st September, 2023: the Intro.






Right … I have to admit to starting this post, very early.

At roughly 11:30 on a Friday morning.

A lot earlier than usual: normally I’m cooking dinner.

But?

I’m looking after my nephew, today.

And I’ve started this review post early, to save time, later.

At ANY rate?

I’m going to be watching another episode of Good Omens, tonight: and telling you about it, tomorrow: I’ll see you then.

Good Omens Series 2 Episode 1 — “The Arrival” — A Review.

25th August, 2023: An Introduction.



It’s official: it’s Friday.

And I’ve just turned down my chips.

Turned down the heat of the oven that’s cooking my chips, I should say!

At any rate, it’s Friday: and I’ve had a few weeks off.

At least from watching a TV show, then telling you about it.

The last series I caught?   Was Star Trek Strange New Worlds’ very impressive second series: something that climaxed with the tenth episode, “Hegemony”.

The next series I’m planning to catch … ?

Is the second season of Good Omens.

It’s something I’m looking forward to.

With a certain amount of trepidation.

I’m a fan of Terry Pratchett: the original novel, by he and Neil Gaiman, is something I’m fond of.

As was the original series.

So?   I’m looking forward to this second series: knowing it’s not based on a second book in the universe the pair worked on.

I’m looking forward to it … with some trepidation.

Frankly?

We’ll have to see what I make of this.

I will, as ever, have this first written review up on 26/8/2023: with the video version not long after.

Star Trek Strange New Worlds Episode 10 — “Hegemony” — A Review

11th August, 2023: the Intro.


Not that I’m trying to rush myself … 

But … ?

I’ve just turned down the oven!

Which possibly doesn’t make sense: unless you’re me!

At any rate … ?

And as you’ve possibly guessed, by now?

It’s a Friday: which means I’ll be having fish and chips for dinner.

Then watching the next — and last — episode of season two of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.

From the very little I’m reading?

“Hegemony” could well be interesting.

~≈🖖≈~

Star Trek Strange New Worlds Episode 9 — “Subspace Rhapsody” — A Review

4th August, 2023: The Intro.




Right: it’s Friday, again.

It’s amazing how it crops up, once a week.

At any rate … ?

That means two or three things.

First?

That I’ve finished an up coming Teaser: for International Left Handers Day.


Speaking as a left-hander that writes quizzes?

What were you expecting me to do for 13th August?

Apart from tell my fellow southpaws to do something on the day!

Next up?

Yes: I’m doing fish and chips, again.

And finally?

Yes: I’m going to be watching the next episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds, tonight.

I’ll be posting my review, tomorrow.

I get the impression it’s going to be very silly … … …

Star Trek Strange New Worlds Episode 8 — “Under the Cloak of War” — A Review

28th July, 2023: The Intro.


It’s Friday.

And yes: you’ve possibly guessed a few things.

For a start, that it is a Friday.

You’ve got a calendar — on your computer, wall or phone — the same as I have.

Yes: it’s Friday.

And, once again, I’ve got fish, home made chips, and a healthy dose — dose? — of vegetables on the go.

And … ?

As you possibly might have realised — if you’ve read this morning’s Teaser post — that I’ve had new, smart, pay-as-you-go, utilities meters, put in.

Something I personally found stressful.

Especially as the old gas meter’s battery had run out.

It meant that the engineer could transfer the credit from my electricity meter … but not from the gas meter.

As he could read it!

Oh, well: we’ll have to see how that goes.

At any rate … ?

It’s Friday … 

Which means that, once I’ve had dinner … ?

I’ll be watching “Under the Cloak of War”, the next episode of Star Trek Strange New World, tonight.

And telling you about it, tomorrow.

Star Trek Strange New Worlds Episode 7 — “Those Old Scientists” — A Review

23rd July, 2023: the Intro.


Yes: it’s Sunday.

You know that as well as I do.

And … ?

Frankly, I’ve done my usual thing of having Sunday dinner with my family.

And … ?

Gone into something of a scheduling panic.

As Paramount+ have released “Those Old Scientists” yesterday: rather than this coming Thursday!

Quite why, I don’t know.

At any rate?

I’m at home early on a Sunday evening: and intent on watching “Those Old Scientists” with a nice cup of tea, and a metaphorical bun.

Here’s hoping the unexpected shift works for me!

~≈🖖≈~

Star Trek Strange New Worlds Episode 6 — “Lost in Translation” — A Review.

Friday, 21st July, 2023: the Introduction.


Yes: it’s official.

It’s been payday.

So … ?

Frankly, I’ve been tempted to treat myself to fish and chips.

You know, walk up to the nearest chippy, get cod and chips, then head home, and eat.

It would be nice.

But let’s be honest: it’s not the best way of keeping hold of any cash for the rest of the month!

So … ?

I’m doing my own dinner, thanking you: fish … and homemade chips.

On — as you’ve possibly noticed — a Friday.

Which means … ?

For one thing, I’m going to eat.

For another?

I’m going to be watching “Lost in Translation”, the next episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds: and telling you what I though about it, tomorrow.

That’s when this gets published!

Star Trek Strange New Worlds Episode 5 — “Charades” — A Review

14th July, 2023: an Introduction.


Wouldn’t you know it?

It’s Friday … again!

Which means, yes;

I’m cremating fish and chips.

The weather’s completely different from what it was.

And an old friend has posted a video … 


At any rate … ?

I’ll be watching that video whilst I eat: then watching “Charades”, the next episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds, once I’m done with that!

I’ll let you know about “Charades”, tomorrow!

~≈🖖≈~

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — S02 E04 — “Among the Lotus Eaters” — A Review

7th July, 2023: “Among the Lotus Eaters”.


Yes: it’s Friday, again.

And … ?

I’m grateful I’ve got food in the fridge-freezer.

Life on benefits is not exactly what you call load with cash.

So?

Why we’re supposed too eat fish and chips on Friday isn’t as important as the fact I’ve got some.

I have to admit to a certain amount of envy, though.

My building’s had a few Uber deliveries!

Heigh ho!

~≈🖖≈~

At any rate … ?

It’s Friday: and dinner’s almost ready.

Which means that, once that’s done … ?

I’m going to watch “Among the Lotus Eaters”, the next episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.


And?

Letting you know what I thought, once I post my reviews of it, tomorrow night.

You’re going to be reading this piece, then.

So, to quote the old phrase … ?

Now read on …

Star Trek Strange New Worlds S02 E03 — “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” — A Review

30th June, 2023: “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow”.


Yes: it IS Friday.

And?

Yes: I’m doing fish and chips, again.

And wondering what on Earth inspired Adriano Celentano to write and perform Prisencolinensinainciusol.


Quite what that’s about, I don’t know.

But?

It’s catchy.

~≈🖖≈~

At any rate?

It’s Friday, I’m going to be having dinner … 

And, if you’re reading this when it’s published?

You’ve possibly skipped ahead to the review of the next episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.

I hope you enjoy it!

Star Trek Strange New Worlds S02 E02 — “Ad Astra Per Aspera” — A Review

23rd June, 2023:  “Ad Astra Per Aspera”.


It’s got to be said, payday can be frantic.

OK, granted, I got into town early: for a diabetic foot check.

Which went well enough.

But the rest of the day’s gone … iffyly!

I’ll probably tell you more in the morning!

At any rate … ?

I’m going have dinner, whilst watching an old friend’s video about Judge Dredd.


Then … ?

Watching “Ad Astra Per Aspera”, the next epidote of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.

I’ll let you know more, tomorrow!

Star Trek Strange New Worlds Series 2 Episode 1 — “The Broken Circle” — A Review

16th June, 2023: “The Broken Circle”.



Right … 

At the moment, I’m … I think the polite phrase is ‘twatted off’!

Yes: twatted off seems to describe it!

YouTube took forever to upload that introduction video!

Two initial attempts … 

Then a third, when I realised what I’d done wrong!

At any rate … ?

It’s Friday: the day after the first episode of Star Trek Strange New World’s second series, aired.

And?

I’m keen to have dinner, make a nice cup of tea … 

Then watch the opening episode.

Yes: it’s called “The Broken Circle”.

And it sounds like there’s a drinking contest going on …

Star Trek Picard — Series 2 Episode 10 — Farewell — A Review

26th August, 2022.



It’s a Friday evening: and … ?

I’m going to be having dinner: again!

Any minute now, in fact.

After that … ?

I’m going to do my usual thing: and watch another episode of Star Trek Picard.

It’s called Farewell: and it’ll be the last Picard episode I watch for a while, as it’s the last in the current series.

I’ll have my review up, tomorrow: and will see you then.

Star Trek Picard — Series 2 Episode 9 — Hide and Seek — A Review

19th August, 2022.







It’s Friday: you’d noticed, hadn’t you … ?

It‘s a Friday: and, as ever, I’m doing dinner.

Fish and chips, so you know.

Why we’re supposed to fish on a Friday?   Is an old Catholic tradition, apparently.

One that was the reason behind the creation of the McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish.

One of these days?   I’ll possibly do a Teaser about that.

At any rate … ?

It’s Friday.

And that means I’ll be watching the next episode of Star Trek Picard’s second series: episode nine, Hide and Seek.

I’m looking forward to it.

~≈🖖≈~

Star Trek Picard — Series 2 Episode 8 — Mercy — A Review

12th August, 2022.











Right … it’s Friday: and dinner is cooking.

As ever.

It’s fish and homemade chips: again.

And frankly?

I’m wondering why on Earth we’re supposed to have fish on a Friday?

I don’t actually know!

That’s beside the point, I think.

It’s Friday.

Which means I’ll be watching Mercy, the next episode of Star Trek Picard’s second season.

And be telling you about it, tomorrow night.

I’ll see you then!

~≈🖖≈~

Oh, JUST as a thought … ?

The Teaser I mentioned in the intro … ?   Is the one for 13th August: Left Hander’s Day.

Feel free to have a go!

Star Trek Picard — Series 2 Episode 7 — Monsters — A Review

5th August, 2022.


It’s got to be said, it’s Friday, again!

You know that: you’ve looked at the calendar, in the same way I’ve done!

If you’ve read today’s Teaser?

You’ve possibly worked out I had a couple of phone meetings: which went well enough.

And — if you’ve been following me a while — that I like a TV show or two.

Currently?   I’m watching series four of Stranger Things on Tuesdays, and releasing my reviews on Wednesdays.


Fridays?   Today, in other words?

I’m doing my usual thing … 

Watching the next episode of Star Trek Picard.

Once the chips are done!

~≈🖖≈~
