I watched:

THE BENNY HILL SHOW
I remember this show being much funnier as a pre-teen, but there were
some clever bits nonetheless, like him playing a German TV show host
who briefly morphed into Hitler (via 1970's technology) before catching
himself and reverting to his meek self and making clever malmorphs.

FAMILY TIES
While Alex goes on a business trip with his female boss, the rest of
the family struggle with remodeling their kitchen.

BARNEY MILLER
People used to think this was funny?

ONE DAY AT A TIME
Ann's newlywed daughter and husband move in after their honeymoon
because of an airport pilot strike, yet he's not an accredited
pilot yet. Hmm... Anyhow, everyone behaves like a jerk in order
for their to be a conflict between the bitch and her som-in-law.

ONE DAY AT A TIME
Ann gets grief about her hot male secretary. When he first shows up
with her coffee, he's not that great-looking at all.

THE JEFFERSONS:
George tricks Billy Dee Williams to appear at one of Louise's
fundraisers, but Florence discovers George was looking for a
celebrity look-alike, so she treats him rudely.

Whenever I've seen this show, I've been relieved when the skit was
anything other than Hill sexually harassing someone.

What did you watch?

I watched Star Trek Continues s1e03, "Fairest of Them All." We're in the mirror universe, and we see the usual crew taking their leave of Mirror
Spock. Mirror Spock considers the words of Regular Kirk, tries to make
some changes within the system and ends up stepping outside it.

This one was *good*. Vic Mignogna, who plays Captain Kirk, carried most
of it on his back. It's important to pay attention, as loyalties keep shifting. There's one segment where Mirror Uhura has switched
allegiances but nobody else in the room knows it, so be alert.

I appreciated the pun in the title -- it's a mirror reference, sure, but
more specifically it's the end of what "Mirror, Mirror" begins, and it's
also a reference to the unfairness of the Imperial system.

I also watched the first episode of Wonder Man, a Disney Plus show now available on Hulu. It features two actors at different ends of their
careers angling for roles in a new superhero movie. I didn't get into
this. The premise worked pretty well, but I found the protagonist
unlikeable. I don't want to watch more of that guy.


What did everyone else watch?

"Someone"? A young woman with generous breasts. He had a type.

It wasn't meant to be serious comedy but a cheap laugh. His on screen personality was of a pre-teen boy dripping with lust who hasn't yet
learned how to talk to a woman. He's awkward and he represents the
immaturity of plenty of adult men. Like all humor of this type, we see ourselves as the butt of the joke.

But yes, he did the gag 2,743 times too often.

R J Decker - Episode 2

We're only two episodes in but I'm enjoying this new show so far. The
star is Scott Speedman, who I haven't seen since Felicity back in the
day, but he does a decent enough job as a former newspaper photographer
who was imprisoned for beating up a young man after being unduly
provoked and being betrayed by his victim's sister during his trial. Now
out of prison, he's become a Private Eye - shades of Jim Rockford! - but
in sunny Florida rather than the LA area. He's broke so he's crashing at
his ex-wife's house, where she lives with her new wife, a local
detective. That becomes important because he often enlists her help in
his cases due to her access to things that he can't see as a private
citizen.

His best friend is his former cellmate, Wish, who won a million dollars
on a lottery ticket the day he was released. Decker is also building a relationship with the woman who betrayed him at his trial, who turns out
to be the daughter of a notorious underworld figure.

Ted - Season 2, episodes 5, 6, 7

I will admit it: I like this show, just as I liked the two movies that
began the franchise. Something about the humour just appeals to me. The
CGI is remarkable, too. It's not all silly either. One of the episodes featured Blair having a pregnancy scare and real moral conflict as Matty
and Susan objected strenuously to her getting an abortion but Ted and
John taking a beating to help her out.

I keep meaning to watch that, as a partial antidote to Star Trek: Short
Bus.

LOL.

I do recommend STC, if you like ST:TOS. I'm enjoying it enough that I
plan to check out some other fan productions as well.

Some fandoms create major productions and others don't. The degree of IP enforcement probably has a lot to do with it.
