Awesome Friday!

The 66th Primetime Emmy Awards were held on a Monday and a month earlier this year to accommodate both the VMAs and NFL season.  But it’s okay, you’ve seen this show before.  No, really.  Seth Meyers gave a fantastic monologue but beyond that it was pretty much a lot of the same as last year and the year before.  I was so bored that I couldn’t even muster up annoyance at the fact that the President of TV (as Stephen Colbert called him) literally put Sofia Vergara onto a rotating pedestal so that people would have something to look at while he spoke.   Continue reading…

Whether or not you’ve seen it already a copy of Sherlock should be in your library. It’s a wonderfully written series updating the adventures of Sherlock Holmes to the modern day. There have been two series of three episodes each so far and since there’s a third in production slated to premiere in the new year now is the perfect time to catch up or rewatch.

Below you’ll find links to purchase Sherlock series one and two from iTunes and Amazon. You may need to turn off your ad block to see them as they are affiliate links, we get a tiny cut if you actually buy them. This helps us keep the lights on around here which is a good thing as we are afraid of the dark.

Thanks and enjoy your weekend!

Our tenth episode! This week talk a bit more about The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Simon’s year of Living Gamelessly, The latest episode of the BBCs Sherlock “The Hounds of Baskerville” and the series as a whole, and how we haven’t really played anything new, and how children are quite possibly the most effective distribution method for disease.
