What are you watching?

Hard as I try, I don't see "APPA", who BTW is great in "Kim's Convenience".

I found a clue in the comments:

I need to polish up on my Aurabesh to translate this

Wiki:

Aurebesh

Aurebesh is a writing system used to represent spoken Galactic Basic and is the most commonly seen form of written language in the Star Wars franchise....


Aurebesh signage at Star Tours, in Tokyo Disneyland

It could be Appa from Kim's Convenience, but I think it's most likely, "Appa (character), a creature from the television program Avatar: The Last Airbender," or possibly, "Appa (band), a Japanese rock band formed in 2004".

Become the geek you must, billy.

Thanks

And that is the actor who plays Appa in Kim's C in the X-wing. Wouldn't he be referring to his own KC character?

I didn't know that. You're correct, it probably is self-referential.

Funny show. Worth watching it if you are able.

So on "Chicago Fire" I had always thought the character Christopher Hermann (David Eigenberg) had he worst fake Chicago accent I'd ever heard. Then it turns out he really is from Chicago. Yet, my opinion still stands. What do you think, GoCubsGo?

Interesting. Rotten Tomatoes, critics and audiences, disagree with you on both.

Guess I'll have to decide for myself.

Geez, I'm surprised on both counts.

Midnight Sky dragged a little in the middle and their was one sequence I thought was superfluous but was good for what it was supposed to be.

WW was a fairly heavy dose of cheese and ham and definitely inferior to the 2017 movie.

WandaVision looks trippy but interesting. It's Marvel, they're doing it for a reason.

Oh well, everyone else I know watched it.

I'm at season 1 episode 2 Game of Thrones

The book Midnight Sky is based on, Good Morning, Midnight, was really good.

I've never jumped into this topic because most of the tv I watch is either network news or old westerns and sitcoms on METV. But as for what I'm NOT watching, I have never seen any Game of Thrones shows. Also never saw any of the Madmen shows. I totally fucking hate Wheel of Fortune and think they should give a million dollars to any asshole stupid enough to appear on it. I did like that old Price is Right show where people had to guess the price of shit and choose between doors number one through three. Now that's entertainment.

I resisted GoT while the rest of the family watched, but after 8 episodes, I'm hooked.
Never seen Madmen.
I watched Sajak on WSM when he was the weatherman and I was farming.
I only remember watching Price is Right when I watched with my grandparents in the early 60s.

Pat should have stayed being the weatherman; that way we'd not be tortured by seeing his bird legged sidekick hobble around to mindless applause. It makes me sick. Price is Right was high hysteria; people would go berserk trying to qualify for the big prize. America at it's best. All while dozens a week died in Vietnam defending this mindless bullshit.
