I watched "The Pirate Planet," my favorite Doctor Who episode. IMO, this
is the best episode in a strong arc from the peak era of the show. It
has something for everyone. There are themes and characterization, plot >twists, gloriously cheesy deliveries, and a robot pet fight.

STARGATE SG1:
The first appearance of the Replicators, some sort of VanNewman space-
bugs. I sure hope they all burned up on the reentry of Thor's infested
ship!

I also watched an episode of Adults, a new sitcom about immature young >adults. It has a Millennial vibe, so it's probably aimed at
thirtysomethings despite the protagonists being in their early 20s. It
was okay, but not something I'd want to see again.
I may try it again anyway. YouTube has gotten so bad lately that I could
use a few wallpaper shows to have on and half-watch.
What did everyone else watch?

A bunch of Caroline Munro movies were added to the Plex yesterday. I
watched the spy who loved me.

There are still a number of Bond flicks that I have never seen. It would
be great if one of the streamers would just get all of them, for several months, as then I could work my way through them in order.
But it seems like the Bond films are never all put up on the same
streamer that way, except occasionally on Pluto, and I don't want to
have to watch all the Bond movie with ads!

The two I've never watched straight through of Moore's are Moonraker,
moostly because it has nothing to do with the original novel that's
quite ecellent, and A View to a Kill, which pisses me off that John
Steed gets killed off.

I watched Quantum of Solace so you don't have to. Skip it. It is a horrifically bad movie.

I actually don't hate that one as much as everyone else seems to. For
one thing, the Bond girl in that one is Olga K.!!
Die Another Day is a misfire, but I still kind of like it.
The Bond films I haven't seen are about half of the Connery ones, most
of the Moore ones, and I've never sat and watched the Dalton ones all
the way through though I think I've seen most of one of those.

I have seen all of the Brosnan and Craig (and Lazenby!) ones. In fact, I have most of the first two's films more than once.

I like her better -- nude -- in her previous movie.

There are multiple cuts of Lazenby.
