Watched a bunch of Perry Mason films (OG) and Lifetime "He done me wrong" movies. Got "Spider-Man Far From Home" from the public library and greatly enjoyed it. More documentaries in the form of two Hamilton interviews (and watched Hamilton again, because, well, why not?) and "Lost City of Machu Picchu" which only made me cry a little. I was there in March, right before the world stopped. The documentary taught me a few things I didn't realize when I was there, giving me yet another perspective on this amazing place. There was "Psych 2: Lassie Come Home" (YES YES YES, SO FUN). Thanks, Peacock. (And Timothy Omundson, you rock. Keep on keeping on bro).
And there was ComicCon@Home (thank you, thank you, thank you!) I watched dozens of panels, from the new CBS All Access Star Treks to Batgirls to Inside the Voice Actors Studio to series updates on Upload, The Boys, His Dark Materials, What We Do in the Shadows, Motherland: Fort Salem, Stumptown and Utopia. They ranged greatly in style and quality. It was fascinating to see actors outside of their roles. Some really engaged while others seemed challenged to find any energy at all. A mixed blessing was the "Conversation with Nathan Fillion" which was neat in the low-key conversational style rather than the stiff, predictable questions on a typical panel. It was delightful in guest stars but jarring in terms of edits. Less interesting was the Star Trek Women panel (more about Star Trek literature than the actual series) and the tour of the new ComicCon Museum, which seemed to be put together for ~very~ young children. My favorite, and most intriguing to me, was the LGBTQ Characters on Television forum, which had some great actors and more substantive conversation than most of the sessions. It was simply the "most real" panel.
