And what I've realized, what I have been finding myself doing the last several months or pretty much most of the year is relying on either relying on things that are comfortable and familiar and rewatching stuff or just binge watching one show at a time, like just finishing something and then moving on to something else.

And it's funny because I saw an Instagram post post or reel or something early this week that was talking about this and said, the reason that I binge watch TV is because then I know at least for a week or two, my decisions are made for me.

That's why I've been doing this because I have to make so many decisions for... other people and for my department.

And just like my day is just full of decisions that when I come home from work, I just like can't make any more decisions.

So having something where it's like, this is just, I know what I'm going to do and I don't have to think about it has been so nice.

So I say all that because this week I finally went back to I had started a while back and I know I mentioned it when I did, but I had started watching the show Evil, which is on Paramount Plus.

It started off on CBS and then it moved to Paramount Plus and it had four seasons and I got partway through the second season and then just life and other priorities came along and I just never finished it.

um but that's been the big thing that i've been watching is is finishing up evil and then um and i really like it it's a fun show um i i know that i still have several episodes left of the final season but i'm understanding why so many fans were upset that it got canceled and felt like it needed one more season and i don't know where it's gonna end off but i can see that it feels like there are just way too many things that need to be wrapped up so um But that being said, one of the fun things about it, though, too, is they still do like a monster of the week type of thing.

So even if the overall like some of the some of the big overarching plot points don't get resolved, at least it's still fun to watch because everything's not it's not all building to something.


This is one that, because I wasn't reviewing and I didn't get it early, HBO's been very strict on certain...

Some things, they'll just be like, here you go, have all the episodes of Bill Maher.
