I finished re-watching ‘Fringe’, a fun sci-fi thriller, with
a splash of soap-opera series. Binge watching emphasises that the soap-opera
aspects, making your own family and familial bonds and finding love, were a key
part of the series and not just a touch of sugar to sweeten the hard sci-fi
tales of outrageous scientists pushing science beyond its current limits. A
great, fun series that rewards re-watching, as the introductions, in later
series, of alternate universes and timelines throw fresh light on previous stories
and events…
…and the postman delivered a bevy of DVDs:
…of which I re-watched ‘Lost In Space’, a fun updating of the
‘60’s TV series, but it doesn’t feel quite as snappy as I remember it being.
…and I did today’s
G2 Crossword:
…which went much better than Monday’s crossword, I just had
to cheat on two of the 21 clues. It all went easy, except for going for
‘clarify’ for ‘elucidate’ and not ‘explain’ and I just couldn’t work out what
‘wet sloppy stuff’ meant, I was stuck thinking of mud and kisses!
