I've just finished watching the latest ep of This Is Us, and when it finished Prime suggested I watch Brothers and Sisters. I didn't even know the show was on Prime, and now I see they have all five seasons. I loved that show so much and watched it avidly when it was broadcast. I loved Justin especially and was thrilled when the actor who played him popped up as D'avin in Killjoys, and was generally sad when the show finished, even though it went downhill by the end season.

I want to watch, but at the same time, I don't because I suspect I'll see it in a different way now. But man, it's tempting to click that link.

Also, taking of Luke Macfarlane, I was checking his wiki out and in his listed work saw he's filmed 5 Hallmark Christmas movies, and that's just the ones with Christmas in the titles. No wonder I see him all the time when Christmas 24 starts.

On my tv show link jump I also saw the new The Hardy Boys show that came out in Dec. I knew nothing about it and it's not available anywhere I have access. Though it's probably just as well as they've changed the brothers ages and Joe is now 12 instead of 17 with blonde hair and blue eyes, an impulsive nature, excellent at sports with a tendency to be reckless as opposed to his older, dark-haired, brown-eyed brother, Frank, who is more serious which feels very wrong.

Corey phoned yesterday and as the next stage of lockdown eases starts today, he's back at work. He was telling me his shifts and is in from early afternoon to 3am. Newcastle council have blocked off one side of the road so businesses can put tables outside and Corey's workplace has 16 tables with heated umbrellas, and apparently, they're all booked solid. I was surprised that they were allowed to stay open so late but there's no curfew so as long as people are willing to sit outside in the cold, and it's very cold here atm, still snowing in fact, they can do so. Though personally no way would I be out that late.

Corey's hoping he's got the job of making drinks inside and not doing table service because they have to ensure every person at the pub checks into track and trace as well as moving them along when their slot is finished. Something that should be okay earlier on, but I suspect will be harder the later it gets.

ETA: James just got in touch to say the green grant people had phoned him about next steps and when he asked when the joiners were coming out to put the floor back in the airing cupboard, the boilerman hadn't actually reported it. Now I need to wait until Thursday before I can get the towels stashed away.
