Two years, 865 posts

February 1, 2004 I started doing this on a lark.

My first thought is that when it comes to what's not right in my life, disturbingly little's changed. That's not good.

I'm not finding myself wanting to belabor the anniversary, simply to note it. Maybe I'll feel differently later in the day.

Happy anniversary! 2 years and 865 posts! Wow! I've just hit 610 in my three years of blogging. Of course, you've had 27,000+ visits and I'm just creeping up on 10,000...I've got blog envy. You're my blog hero!

I suppose one of the features of leaping around from one blog to another as much as I have over the past several years is that I have no clue when anniversaries and such arrive, or how many posts I've put up, or what.

Still, Happy Anniversary, and many more.

Thanks for doing this blog, Mike. Reading your stuff has been a highlight of many a day.

Of course, now I'm curious about when I started doing all of this...so I'm going to go check my archives!

All: Thanks for the notes!

Mark: Half of those are probably
me, checking to see if the site's up.

H: It's fun more often than not, so barring something catastophic it'll keep rolling on. (That's an invitation for a lightning strike...)

Mike S.: It's a tricky call when one had an ongoing website and then shifted to a blogging format.

Mike L.: Thanks, Mike! I haven't stopped by over there all week, I just realized.

Tony: Different day, same problems. Still on the run, it seems.

(TV/streaming video) New & Leftover Items, a Touch of 2024, and some Nostalgic Forensics

    So much else calling out for attention, and with watchables already piled up, finding even more things to watch doesn't seem like much of a sane prospect. I'm not even fishing around for new things at the moment, as I need to get some other things done and make some attempt to round out my life a little.       This week on Paramount+, the fourth season of the animated Star Trek: Lower Decks came to a satisfying end. A manic pace of in-universe nods continues to give it the Star Trekiest of Trek feels with the casual, plot-essential trivia drawn from decades of Star Trek shows, woven throughout.       Also there, the contemporary Frasier series' first season hits its halfway point with episode five. I'm enjoying it, but it continues to walk a wobbly line as some of it works smoothly while other moments reek of formula, with some of each overlapping. I'd be very interested in seeing how well or not this new series works on its o...

Catching Up with Old Friends (Streaming media series)

   I haven't done any blogging posts on current and streaming media since November 3rd, which broke a streak of weekly ones that had been going since September of 2019 - albeit as part of a different, group, blog. As with many such inactions, it wasn't intended as a formal stoppage, just a momentary delay, but here it is five weeks later. This post's linking theme is the return of fondly-remembered characters. It really should include the recent arrival to streaming of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny over on Disney+, but I haven't really mustered my reactions to that. Instead, I'll stick with two other nostalgic items that arrived this week.       Yesterday saw the arrival of the season finale, episode ten, of Kelsey Grammar's return of Frasier Crane in the 2023 iteration of Frasier , over on Paramount+.      The series picked up on the titular character in the present, whom we haven't seen since his 11-season first series wr...

Oct.13-19 - More Returns and Changes

      Even though I've already watched the pair of debut episodes of Frasier (see next paragraph), and this week's Star Trek: Lower Decks (which continues to do a stellar job of mining  previous Trek series for character, episode and extraterrestrial culture lore and deftly applying them at breakneck speeds), I still have multiple things I'm looking forward to catching up on, including new eps of Gen V (Amazon Prime), Loki (Disney+), and both Archer and Welcome to Wrexham (both on Hulu), along with the first two episodes of a final six for Doom Patrol over on Max... and that's just off the top of my head, so getting this week's streaming post out of the way brings those one step closer for me.       I've watched the two episodes of the new Frasier series that arrived on Paramount+ this week, and while it was a mixed bag it was good to see the character back, with him attempting to move into his third act by returning to Boston, where...
