Salem isn't free for me to watch on Amazon Prime, so I'm going to rewatch BTVS starting with the ending of season one.

HGTV annoys me.
Give 120k to Hilary on Love it or List it, and she is always telling the homeowners about how the renovations are not within budget so something always has to be cut.
Give the same amount of money to The Property Brothers and they renovate an entire damn house.

I watched Sisyphus: The Myth on Netflix (one season). Korean with English subs.
I liked the science-fiction, liked the actors and the awkward romance.
My only criticism was the pacing. We don't need to have flashbacks to fill in every plot hole. Sometimes learning about them in the present is enough. It seems the series could've been half the length without losing much.
Still found it very enjoyable, though!

I've been watching a tv show called "Doc Martin" about a strict city doctor who comes to live in an English village where he is annoyed by everyone and everyone is annoyed by him.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
