The fickle nature of my whims. You see my brain accepting an inevitability only to back out. Those are the breaks when dealing with a seemingly inescapable compulsion:
The gist of it: trying a new format to kind of decrease the number of posts for television reviews. Further elaboration below...
I admit it. Any writing skill I might have had does appear to be eroding. It might have something to do with just not having the time to write essays or fucking novels anymore. I have noticed my fellow blog writers, brilliant and unique in their different individual styles, points, and views, are contributing less and less to their blogs. Even though the urge to write is there, maybe individual episodes getting so much time just isn’t in the cards anymore. And what is also tormenting me is just so much content everywhere available to watch and write about. Plenty of younger folks have websites and articles all over the internet. I never considered myself competition for all these bright and clever minds, educated and often quite impressive in how to comment and document opinion on the subject matter of the myriad of television out there.
At any rate, I packaged together television show reviews I have been trying to keep up with here lately individually, dumped here to save space on the blog. The blog has morphed into this monster just perhaps a bit too long in the tooth. It has been ten years thereabouts since I started this blog. It hasn’t generated the same amount of traffic as my peers, which is why I decided to scale back.
4th of July 2025 Marathoning
McDowell and Comi prepare to leave for Mars. Aliens visiting the UN, dropping off their cook book, providing goodies for humans on Earth, easing them into trusting them, spiriting them away to be food for them on their home planet. To Serve Man is nearly 60 years ago. I've been watching Twilight Zone since I was a teenager in the mid 90s thanks to Sci Fi Channel. Many of my family have passed since (for instance, my mother's siblings are all about gone except one last sister), and it wouldn't be right to avoid a marathon during the 4th if just for nostalgic reasons. Syfy didn't see the value of TZ on Independence Day, except last year, so even though I cannot watch episodes like I do during New Year's Eve and Day, it is nice to try and sneak in a block of episodes whenever possible. I started with Death Ship from the fourth season, continuing with Stopover in a Quiet Town and The Gift . To Serve Man would feel like a later afternoon watch but SYFY showed it at 3:...
