Byrne + Lee: Utopia!
I’m not exactly saying that this is flying under the radar, but… DON”T LET THIS FLY UNDER YOUR RADAR! In fact, let’s make it the Pin of the Week, just so you don’t:) Starting to feel like NYT West out here, but they bring the goods with a great review of this amazing show.
You Say Headphones, I Say Bedphones!
Do you occasionally (as in almost nightly) binge shows in bed? And do you normally (as in sinfully) listen to shows through your computer speakers? Keeping with the idea that more than half of what you see is what you hear, we’ve hunted down a reco for you! Yes, they’re wired. No, they aren’t noise-cancelling. But they’re only $99 – and their little brother model is only $79! – and these babies are revered for rivaling $300 headphones for sound.

Rotten, Hidden Gems!
Rotten Tomatoes, that is. I’ll apologize in advance for this not being a stream friendly post. But it is loaded with plenty of learning for your next potential binge!

How To? Well, Why Not?
Perhaps it’s time to cleanse your media palette with something… different. Got a feeling you’ll love or hate this one, but really got a feeling you’re gonna love it. Awkwardness and all. Thanks, Buzzfeed!
Freestyle Love Supreme Academy
This link from the NYT is actually full of great things to see and do virtually this weekend. But if your kids love Hamilton, Lin-Manuel Miranda might be about to change their lives, as the story goes.
A Freaky Sleeper in the Making
It’s not my way to post about movies you can’t rent or stream yet, but in the time of COVID, you just have to be ready. And this one with Vince Vaughn has all the makings of one to hit, right when it hits. Slash on, folks!
New Trailers for a New Month!
You are about three seconds away from a new sneak peek trailer for Season 2 of the Mandalorian, so I’ll stop right h…
It’s Newember, People!
Well, it will be on Sunday, anyway. So let CNN add to the craziness of a weekend with Halloween, a full moon and the end of daylight savings time. Read up and stream on!
Thrillers as Chillers, Perhaps?
I’ll apologize in advance for all the ads that come along with this one. But if you’re game, The Decider does have a nice slideshow with some great ideas of a Halloween that more tense than terrifying. Read on!
10 Good Ways to Trick and Treat Yourself This Year
If the virus has you playing Halloween safe at home this year, maybe you should just mix your own bite-sized candies with this list of streaming screamers, courtesy of the NYT. Make it a Fright Night!
Follow the Money… and Pass It Along!
Here’s one I found. A strange little bunch of protests songs by a band that doesn’t seem to exist. Sure beats Demi Lovato for Trump-busting protest literacy, though.
