If only I could do a poll...

1. Okay, I can't do a poll, because no paid account, but I'm curious...how many people who watch Doctor Who see it as a kid's show? And do your kids, assuming you have any, watch it? I'm particularly interested in the non-Brits. Because it's apparently marketed as a kid's show in Great Britain. But it isn't here. (It's shown at 9 pm here on Saturday nights. Not exactly what I think of as the prime kid-viewing hour.)

2. What is everyone watching? Anything interesting?

3.Sense8 got cancelled. Is it worth watching now that it is cancelled? Or will it irritate me because it ended on a cliff-hanger? What else on Netflix, Amazon Prime is worth checking out?

So far Bosch, Sense8, and Iron Fist have been mentioned. Anyone seen the Woody Allen/Elaine Page series?

4. Has American Gods finished yet? I'm waiting to binge watch as a 7 day trial on Starz.

Oh, forgot....the guy who was doing his thesis on Dark Knight returns (batman), The Watchmen, and the death of the superhero in comics, looked like Spike. He had a black leather jacket, black boots, an earring in his ear, white blond curly hair...and a California accent. It was the 1980s, the Billy Idol look was in back then.

And my Aunt's boyfriend when I was a little kid, also looked like Spike, blond hair, earring, leather jacket...it was the 1970s, also in back then.

Ha ha.

Looking back it is easy to forget how different Spike was. I know there were a few precedents for modern vampires in things like The Lost Boys, but the basic default idea of a vampire was still velvet and long hair. So I find I am slightly disappointed to discover his look was a generic one. ;)
