Okay, so it has been seven weeks since my last installment. This "What I Watch on TV" series of posts has NOT been a very popular one. Even after all of that time, it has had far fewer readers than any of my previous posts. I get it. I mean, why should you readers really care what I watch, unless I'm going to write much more interesting and in-depth posts about each of the shows? You probably shouldn't...and probably don't. Therefore, I shall close the door on that series of posts here by simply listing the Netflix shows and then move on. I won't waste any more of your time.
Netflix: House of Cards, Orange is the New Black (I admit it), Marco Polo (now cancelled), Sense 8 (now cancelled, but with one movie coming to close out the story), Stranger Things, The OA, Black Mirror, Mystery Science Theater 3000, and Travelers.
So, now it's time to move on, but to what? Well, I have nothing specific prepared for this post, except to say this: From now on, when I write about a movie or a television show, I will write only about one at a time, and I will go much deeper into it than I did with any of the shows that I wrote about in this blog post series.
For example, once it has aired in September, I intend to write about the premier episode of the upcoming CBS series Star Trek: Discovery. I will likely write about only the first episode because I have no intention of signing up for the CBS All Access pay service to watch more, but I will write a much more in-depth review. Like many of you, I have already formed some opinions based on the trailers that have been released, but I will "officially" reserve judgment until I have seen the premier.
What will I be writing about between now and then? As I sit here writing this post, I don't know. I guess the best answer that I can give you is... Whatever comes up.
You see, over the past seven months, I've been pulled in several different directions, which is why so much time passes between blog posts. I'm still working on repairs to the house after last summers devastating hailstorm. The roof got replaced ASAP back then, but I've only now been able to arrange to replace all of the windows and the back door -- windows were scarce in this town for a while -- lack of supply and heavy demand. A new government contract began at work in May, which involved transitioning from one employer to another, and I was forced to complete additional training and to obtain a new Microsoft certification (MCSA), which involved preparing for and taking and passing three separate exams. I've been working on the third book in my Solfleet military science-fiction novel series, and in doing so I discovered that, despite the intense efforts of both me and my proofreader, the first two books of that series, which have already been released, were still riddled with typos, dropped words, extra words, so I had to take time out to correct all of those -- I hope that I finally caught them all. I've also been dealing with the Veterans Administration, which is always a lot of fun <-- sarcasm.
In conclusion, I say this: I will make a concerted effort to make all future blog posts more interesting and worthy of the time that you, my readers, spend reading them. Thank you.
