1. The "kitty porn" on FB has gotten out of hand. I want a kitty. I can't have a kitty. No time or knowledge or patience to take care of kitty. This has got to stop. FB seems to be either "kitty porn" or ...Doofus/aka the 45th or You Know Who.

Also a lot on 13 Reasons Why -- which I have decided should be boycotted. Or watched with extreme caution. I feel for parents now days...our media is scary.

2. Too many tv shows...so suggestions?

And how do you do polls on DW?

Here's the television shows I want to know if it is worth trying or continuing with:

* The Class (co-worker keeps bringing it up, but he says it is very gory and scary...hmmm. Also been canceled, so hmmm. And I missed the first two episodes...so there's that.)

* Wynnona Earp (Netflix)

* The Son (have three episodes saved -- haven't watched yet, should I bother with it?)

* Shadowhunters?

* Big Little Lies (HBO Now)

* The 100 (have 8 episodes saved for this season)

* Star (back half of this season saved)

* When We Rise (4 episode miniseries -- is it worth it)

* The Expanse (last 8 episodes)

* Once Upon a Time (last 8 episodes)

* Fargo (S3)

* Iron Fist (Netflix)

* Fortitude (Amazon)

* Luke Cage (Netflix)

* Sense8 (Netflix)

* OA (Netflix)

* To Walk Invisible...the Bronte Sisters story on PBS

3. Rain, rain, rain...it's pouring outside. At one point there was a screeching cat fight, then it poured, really poured, and the cat fight became more...well cats screaming about it pouring it outside. Not pretty. Made me feel sorry for the kitties. I'm a cat person. Somewhat ambivalent when it comes to doggies, but kitties tug at my heart-strings. I stop when I see them. Cats make sense to me, they want to be left alone for the most part, and take their time to get to know you. They are the introvert intellectuals of the animal world.

Frigging tired of the rain. We've had one day of sunshine in 10 days. If I wanted that, I'd be living in Oregon or Washington.

Er, dropping in from Latest Things having noticed your question about polls.

Polls are a paid-account feature, but here's the how-to for when you have a paid account.

Now I've forgotten why I was wandering in Latest Things. Oh well...

In other words, I have to pay for it. Thanks.

Now I've forgotten why I was wandering in Latest Things. Oh well...

LOL!!!

And wait...my entry was in "latest things"?? What is this?

[onyxlynx]

Basically, Latest Things is "a sample of the most recently posted things that are available on the site" (with a 5 minute grace period in case of posting public by mistake).

Occasionally one finds interesting people and posts there.

[rahirah]

It's a feed of the most recent public posts on the site. Kind of like a massive friend-of-friends list. You can find the link to it under the "Explore" menu. If you lock your posts, they won't show up there.

Since I can only get broadcast channels, the only two series on your list I'm following are Once Upon A Time and The 100.

Once has left me pretty cold this season, although recent eps are a tad better, but only a tad. I continue to watch, but it's no longer remotely must-see TV for me.

The 100 got off to a shaky start (IMO anyway, most fans seemed happy with it) but ep 2 was notably better and by 3 they were fully back in the groove again, with the groove being its usual relentlessly dark but fascinating trip.

I assume you've seen all of the previous season, so you know about the impending new nuclear apocalypse that's approaching as old reactors start melting down. Well-- it's turning out to be even worse than expected, and the group is scrambling for any and all possible solutions.

I was ticked at the month-long hiatus this April, but fortunately it's back on again tonight.

You didn't mention Riverdale, but that show has turned out to be surprisingly more involving than I had expected. You know you're in an alternate Archie universe when a reviewer describes Betty as a "Hitchcock Blonde". Uhhm... yeah, I can sorta see that.

I am tuning in regularly. And credit where due to the CW, these very young actors they're populating their shows with are pretty damn talented for the most part, and I mean like, 90%.

Oh, I'm watching "Riverdale" -- I just didn't list it because, not on the fence about watching it. Only the series that I'm somewhat on the fence about were listed. (Hmmm...should have clarified that? Oh well, can't do it from here and by the time I get home, won't matter.) Agreed, Riverdale feels like Archie Comics by way of Twin Peaks.

Been having issues with OUAT myself. I just don't care what happens to the characters any longer, and I'm not quite sure why. Everyone looks tired. It's lost it's oomph. Actually the series has been sliding downhill since post-S3...I think.

Good to know on the 100 -- was trying to decide if I should stick with it or not. (Have 8 episodes and counting saved.)

There's 42 hours on DVR at the moment. It was over 60, but I managed to chip away at Victoria over the weekend, Big Bang Theory, and deleted Feud.

I'm not giving up on Riverdale (only 3 episodes behind), The Expanse (at least not yet...).

I love Sense8. I think that's one definitely worth trying if you haven't yet. Luke Cage was...okay.

[shadowkat]

More than one person has told me, now, that Sense8 should be tried. So may...it's on Netflix, I think.

[shapinglight]

Yes, Netflix. Season 1 and a Christmas special are already up and season 2 will be up on May 5.
