vaznettiA and I have finished the Expanse (excellent, would definitely watch again) and started The Dark; so far it's engaging but it is a dead-or-missing-kids show, at least in these early stages, and sometimes I have to stop watching those. It has a very X-Files vibe, although I couldn't quite figure out why I thought so -- at first I thought that was just the lighting, but then I realized that a specific thing is set to occur at 10:13 PM (someone is told not to open a letter until that time on a specific date).
Except that it's a German show, so this is really 22:13, as I realised when I looked at the writing on the letter (it's dubbed which is how I missed this vital piece of information the first time around). So unless they renamed their production company in countries that use the 24 hour clock, this was not a callback.
In other news, I am going to have my second lockdown birthday this weekend, soon to be followed by my second lockdown set of seders. This thing can end any time now. At least I have appointments for my vaccinations now! And just under the wire, as they are apparently having to pause the vaccine rollout for people under 50 because of a shortage.
I feel like I need a change of icons, but I don't know what I want! Or, frankly, if anyone makes icons for DW any more. Hrm.
And finally, the other day i heard Spartacus describing something as "like fanfic". Does he read fanfic? I'm not sure I want to know!
