Idiot box thread

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

A++++++ premier! I like the cast more than I thought I would.

Ain't looking good for your girl Savannah though, she shot herself in the foot.

We just watched it tonight, and I agree with your rating. But I didn't see any significant mistakes by Savannah. What did you see?

Lying about the lack of advantage on the journey with Colby. Nobody was buying that.

Savannah thought Ozzie is most likely to get back doored and leave with her idol. We saw how that idea flopped already. Nobody should try to get rid of their strong players until after merge or they'll just head down an endless path to Tribal.

Looks like Ozzie and Coach won't be sharing beers anytime soon.

Savannah is on Ozzy's tribe....Genevieve gave Ozzy the boomerang idol.


Coach is the asshole gift that keeps on giving, he can't get out of his own way.

But he's a lot of fun to ridicule.

He must have gotten your message about being too mean to Punch. ;)

She is likable. Don't think she really had much of a chance on her tribe especially losing the first two challenges.

Amazed that Rizo has been able to integrate so well. Winning buys time and helps.

I would have dumped Joe I think. As somebody noted, he's high maintenance and although he's competition strength, they're still losing.

He might be falling into the category of useful idiot at this point.

I ran across "Yorkshire Vet", which is not a new show but I had never seen.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5016662/

It's a reality type show featuring the real vets now running the Skeldale clinic, former home of "All Creatures."
The senior vet there, Peter Wright, worked for the real life James Herriott. The original Skeldale is now a museum so the practice has moved but is still in the same town. The show is almost a real life version of "All Creatures" still serving the town and surrounding farms - some of which look just like they're portrayed in "Creatures."

I found it on Roku, but it might be on the PBS app, maybe Britbox too. If you like "Creatures" it's worth looking for.

The cast, all pros, break every time. :lol:

Also, I like Colin Jost's Jagoff in the cold opens more than I do fake DonOLD.

I didn't like Q his first time and I didn't like him this one and was not sorry to see him go.. But he does have quite a compelling backstory and I admire him even if I don't like him.

Didn't like him the first time, he grew on me a bit this time.
