Batman (1966) - US
It's so bad its good! I have a love of cheese, both the foodstuff and the visual kind, TV, movies, etc. 1970's badly dubbed Godzilla films, old school Doctor who (with shaky sets), and this... its all cheesy goodness wrapped in a candy coated fun wrapper. When I was a kid I never realized the batmobile had no headlights. It explains why (almost) all the action occurs during the day-time though. I have to say Roddy McDowell as the bookworm as been so far my favorite villain although Morticia(!) (or the actress, Carolyne Jones) as Marsha the Queen of Diamonds was wicked fun too, ...darling.
I literally just told you - UK
A game-show where they give you the answers before they ask the questions. I love its simple premise and surprising difficulty and of course the host, a living UK, institution, Jimmy Carr.
And Just like that... - US
It's NOT Sex and the City. Thank god. I wouldn't want to see all that flab having sex in every episode. It IS the next chapter for those characters and it is still well written and still deliciously fun to watch!
Star Trek Prodigy - US
Nickelodeon makes this show, but its clearly written for the adult as well. It is good old family entertainment in the rich fabric of the Star Trek universe and canon. It has all the makings of a great spin-off, which it is.
The Book of Boba Fett - US
Love it. Not as much as the Mandalorian, but... it has got the right pace, good action, jokes, and lots of secrets left to unlock and explore inside the Star Wars arena - a place we all seem to genuinely love. Kudos to Jon Favreau for keeping the characters bad-ass and the plots interesting and fun.
Hard Quiz - AU
Tom Gleeson grills contestants (on the barbie) until they drop down to the final two who go head to head on their specialized subjects in a bid for the "Limited Edition" Big Brass mug. I feel the earlier shows were more acerbic, but it remains good fun and I do laugh watching it. Laughter is the worlds magic.
