Reading/ Watching/ Listening
Reading: The Rules of Civility by Amor Towles. I didn't like it nearly as much as A Gentleman in Moscow . In fact, I liked it only barely enough to keep reading. Watching: Poker Face , on Peacock. Papi and I have enjoyed watching this, one episode at a time, and not every day. It's a little formulaic, but the sets and the guest stars are fun. I like that it changes scenery every episode. Listening to: The Beatles Channel, Sirius XM. Ever since watching Get Back , the Beatles documentary, I've enjoyed listening to them with new ears.
My husband and I *heart* Joel McHale, so I really, really wanted to like it. But neither of us thought it was that great. We'll give it one more shot. For Joel.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even understand it...why are they in school? What's happening? I hope it gets better with #2.
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch it but I LOVE Joel McHale I figured I'd catch it OnDemand. Sounds like I should skip it..yes, no?
ReplyDeleteI know, I love him too, but this just ... wasn't good. I'm hoping maybe they were just trying to get things set up, and maybe it will get better next week. You could just wait for that.
ReplyDeleteI have a very simple, no-fail method for picking out comedies...if the commercials aren't funny, the show won't be either. This one didn't sell me by the commercials so I didn't even put it on the short list...sorry Joel.
