    I watched:

    STARGATE SG1:
    The first appearance of the Replicators, some sort of VanNewman space-
    bugs. I sure hope they all burned up on the reentry of Thor's infested
    ship!

    What did you watch?

    What did you watch?

    I watched "The Pirate Planet," my favorite Doctor Who episode. IMO, this
    is the best episode in a strong arc from the peak era of the show. It
    has something for everyone. There are themes and characterization, plot twists, gloriously cheesy deliveries, and a robot pet fight.

    I also watched an episode of Adults, a new sitcom about immature young
    adults. It has a Millennial vibe, so it's probably aimed at
    thirtysomethings despite the protagonists being in their early 20s. It
    was okay, but not something I'd want to see again.

    I may try it again anyway. YouTube has gotten so bad lately that I could
    use a few wallpaper shows to have on and half-watch.

    What did everyone else watch?

    I watched the movie WIND RIVER. A story about a Native American girl
    that is found dead in a field apparently having fled from
    something/someone given the bare feet. Since the body was on
    reservation land it becomes a bigger issue. Great performance by
    Jeremy Renner. Well worth watching with an exciting ending.

    Even though the ending made no logical sense because I have to
    question what the bad guys thought they were going to do. Kill every
    LEO that shows up?

    I didn't like it because it was too silly.

    It turns out Douglass Adams wrote it using a non-de-plume, so that made
    sense.
