I watched:

GLEN BECK

THE DARK SIDE OF THE 90'S:
"The Rise Of Rush Limbaugh". Rush Limbaugh is conservative radio's first
megastar, claiming to have "talent on loan from God." He creates a divide in
America that is seen unfolding today. As I expected, this ep was nothing but
a leftist smears job, so I started channel-surfing after five minutes.

WELCOME TO PLATHVILLE:
"I'm Done Choosing". The Plath children all gather at the farm to celebrate
Joshua, but when Olivia learns Kim is included at the gravesite visit,
tensions quickly rise; Moriah's frustration with Olivia grows and a request
from Ethan shocks Kim.

I only discovered this was a two-hour long ep because this week's "The Dark
Side Of The 90's" was bullshit and I began to channel surf. I began watching
with the family arriving at the Joshua's gravesite (the mother ran him
over when he was five years old) and it all seemed so very creepy and
unnatural to me and I lost interest and switched channels when Ethan and
Olivia started to argue about her staying away from Kim. I seriously doubt
I'll bother watching the two hour "finally" next week.

THE PROOF IS OUT THERE: SKINWALKER EDITION:
"Strange Sounds". Tony Harris and his team use the Skinwalker Ranch as their
home base for analyzing bizarre sounds and energies recorded worldwide. I
have no clue why they decided to make Skinwalker Ranch their home base, other
than cross-promotion, because the show takes place entirely within an office!
Anyhow, this seems to be a Franken-ep with a sonic theme.

What did you watch?

Looks like I may have to do a two-day tomorrow. May do it as a separate thread.

I did a bit of DVR clearing and watched:

Better Caul Saul (AMC) - "Nippy" - This episode was set entirely post
Breaking Bad, and in Black and White. It put a new spin on the pilot
episode of Better Caul Saul revealing Saul's life working at the
Cinnabon isn't all that it appears.

The Walking Dead (AMC) - "Out of the Ashes" Season 11, episode 5, from
almost a year ago. I have the entire 11th season (and the entire and
season of "World Beyond" just sitting on my DVR waiting to be watched.
I *finally* got around to picking up where I left off. And unlike those
Netflix streaming shows TWD actually offers a recap before every
episode, so I was more or less able to catch up with where I left off a
year ago.

"On the Inside" " Season 11, episode 6. Another episode from last year.
Now that I've watched two episode from a year ago (with a *lot* more to
go) I'm on the fence about TWD. The episodes were just OK. I honestly
just didn't care one way or the other if I kept watching or just deleted
them all. But what keeps me from deleting them is I know I like the
show, or at least I know the show is capable of producing episodes that
I enjoy, but at the moment I just don't care about any of the characters
or their situation which makes it a bit of a chore to watch the show.

The Year of Living Dangerously (TCM) 1982 drama starring Mel Gibson as
an Australian journalist in Indonesia at the start of a civil war. I'm
pretty sure this was my first time watching this movie. It was OK, but
I wouldn't want to sit through it again.

Stranger Things - Another episode, I've lost track where I'm at. But it
was an OK episode with a lot of focus on 11.

Motherland: Fort Salem (Freeform) - "Book Club" - This was another good
episode with the various sides gearing up for all out war. And it turns
out there is more to the local book club than just reading books.

Finally!

I thought Linda Hunt was terrific but the rest of the movie was largely
overrated.

It continues Jimmy McGill's trajectory from "Slippin' Jimmy" to Gene
Takovic, straightforward confidence man and heister. It also shows how
Vince Gilligan starts a character out with some conventional sympathy --
such as Walter White, victim of cancer, trickery by his ex-partners, and
a poor health insurance system, or in the case of _Better Call Saul__,
Jimmy McGill, who at least had one foot in the respectable world, but
kept pushing his luck -- and then chronicles their fall.
