    I watched:

    FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE SERIES:
    "Brain Drain". A dim-wittedd man discovers a cursed trefinator in a
    museum warehouse: a guillotine-like device that transfers spinal fluid
    from one individual to another. The cursed item actually transfers intelligence as well, and the man uses it to make himself intelligent
    by preying upon doctors at the museum. Jack and the others become
    involved when Jack's old girlfriend and fiancee goes to work at the
    museum, and is the next target for the trefinator.

    BABYLON 5:
    "Believers". An alien family refuses surgery to save their dying child.
    Just. Damn. This was when I realized this show was not a Star Trek rip
    off!

    FAMILY GUY:
    "High School History". The Griffins take a humorous look at the French Revolution, the American Civil War, and World War II

    That was fun, for once. I was a bit surprised to see them recycle that
    old Hitler movie meme. Is that French pointing guy painting real?

    Glad to hear you liked that. I dislike most of their showcases, but I'll
    give it a try.


    What did you watch?

    I watched some more Only Murders in the Building. I also tried one of
    the recent American Dad eps, "Reaper Madness." I really enjoyed the
    previous one, and at first I thought this was another repurposed script,
    but it turned out not to be. It was okay, but I think they're starting
    to lean too heavily on the popularity of Klaus. They'll wear him out,
    and he'll be another tumor character like Roger.

    I watched a movie on the Netflixes called THRASHER, about a small town on the Carolina coast that gets hit with a Category 6 hurricane-- a new category invented due to 'climate change', naturally-- and the storm surge brings with it dozens of killer bull sharks, which prowl the waters of the submerged town picking off the survivors.

    Then I started a new series called NEMESIS about a high-end heist crew in L.A. and the cop who is doggedly chasing them despite his superiors not believing they exist and all the hits are unrelated.
