Pop Culture Check-in, Post #29
Three things on Thursday:
*I've started watching Only Murders in the Building, and I like it and its twist on cozy mysteries, but I have to say -- this pandemic has made me so anxious that the Martin Short character's storyline of money troubles is all but unwatchable. I just... gaah. Can someone check with Steve Martin to make sure that Marty's character is all right by the end of the season? I need to be able to skip ahead.
Somehow I'm not as concerned with Selena Gomez's character's woes. It's just Martin Short's. That being said, I'm loving her performance and her character's wardrobe. :)
*I have stalled on Episode One of Lucifer because, again, I am having trouble watching even well-written angst. I do not find it cathartic in the least.
*But you know what is a good thing? THiddleston and Zawe Ashton were photographed together in Ibiza, swimming and almost snogging in mid-swim and looking gorgeous and happy together. Paparazzi = bad, but confirmation they're still together = good.
Does the happiness of one actor and another actor-writer materially affect me? Not in the slightest. Is it my business? Also no. But I'm happy to know it, nevertheless.
Otherwise we are in a time of Exhaustion, and not even ordering new trousers from the Ines de la Fressange collection at Uniqlo is quite enough to stir the endorphins. Oh well.
Cheers for your upcoming weekend!

Have a great weekend!

(I actually think Lucifer develops throughout its seasons in a beautiful way, but the cop-show part is consistently its weakest element.)
Cheers! Happy weekend!
