    love this country.

    I watched another Scream Queens. I still enjoy it. I can't see
    myself ever rewatching it, though. A lot of the fun is the
    unpredictability.

    I'm pretty sure I watched Scream Queens when it originally aired, but I
    don't remember it at all.


    On Wednesday I watched:


    Battlestar Galactica (blu-ray) "Scattered" - Season 2, episode 1. I
    put together this watch list a year or two ago and the watch list very
    clearly said start with episode 6. But season 1 ended on a cliffhanger
    with Adama getting shot. How could I skip the season 2 premier? So
    ignored the list of episodes I took the time to put together and started
    with episode 1. Episode 1 was boring! Nothing happened and it didn't
    even really address Adama getting shot.

    "Valley of Darkness" - Season 2, episode 1. OK, so maybe they dropped
    the ball with episode 1. But surely episode 2 would pick up where the
    season 1 finale ended and start moving the plot forward. No! Episode 2 quickly became background noise. And that's where I decided to give up
    and go back to just using the watch list I already made for myself.


    Buddy (theatrical) New horror movie about a 90s style children's
    television show (sort of a cross between Pee-Wee's Playhouse and Barney)
    where the show's costumed mascot murders the kids. I'm trying to avoid spoilers, but I want to be clear the murders are not taking place in the
    real world, they are taking place within the fictional world of the TV
    show. The kids are essentially being taken from the real world, brought
    into the TV world where they must deal with a psycho, murderous, TV
    host. Not a person in a suit, but an actual giant orange unicorn. The
    thing lies as easily as it murders. The kids are trapped in the TV show universe and subject to the rules of a children's TV show. It's a very interesting premise. This is one of the rare horror movies where most
    of the victim's are young children.

    Cristin Milioti from "The Penguin" is also in the movie. She plays n

    Apparently some parents have been taking their kids to see this not
    realizing it's a bloody horror movie. But what part of "rated R for
    graphic violence and gore" did they not understand?
