    FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE SERIES:
    "Bad Penny". While mourning the death of his father (in last season's
    "The Prisoner"), Johnny catches wind of a series of murders with the
    victims bearing the mark of a ram's head on their forehead. It turns
    out that two crooked cops have recovered the Coin of Ziocles (from
    "Tails I Live, Heads You Die"). In a shootout, one of them is killed
    along with a drug dealer they were in cahoots with. The other, live cop figures out the coin can resurrect the dead, and uses it to resurrect
    his partner as a semi-zombie. They then use the Coin to kill a
    prostitute, but Johnny grabs the coin from them...and uses it to
    resurrect his father. Meanwhile, Micki is in a near-useless state,
    since she herself was briefly dead, killed by the Coin earlier. She
    doesn't want to go through that again. Disgusted with Johnny's selfish
    use of the coin, Jack kicks him out, but Johnny manages to redeem
    himself after the cops get the coin back and try to resurrect the drug
    dealer to find out where their money is. Johnny saves Micki,

    FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE SERIES:
    "Hate on Your Dial". Johnny inadvertently screws up when he sells a box
    of junk to a retarded neighbor without checking the Manifest. A cursed
    antique car radio is among the items sold. The retarded man's brother,
    a car repairman and a racist, discovers that the radio can be used to
    travel back in time when smeared with a murdered victim's blood. He
    plans to travel back to the 50's in the South and prevent his father
    from being arrested and killed on murder charges, by killing the black
    lawyer his father tried to kill. Johnny and Jack, holding on to the car
    during the racist's second trip, travel back in time with him and
    manage to stop him. Ultimately, the racist ends up being burned at the
    stake by his father and other KKK members, who mistakenly think he is
    working with the black civil rights lawyer he was trying to kill. I
    rolled my eyes at the "trigger warnings" and the bleeped out slurs, but

    Holy crap, this ep really was brutal!

    CHARLIE'S ANGELS:
    "The Seance". A rich old lady has lost three jewels in three robberies. Actually, she stole them herself under a trance and doesn't remember
    doing it. Madam Dorian (Doris), her spiritual advisor would seem to be
    a prime suspect. Kelly poses as the daughter of a rich oil tychoon, and
    is hypnotized by Madam Dorian's assistant, Terrance, who discovers
    Kelly was afraid of being stuffed in a closet as a child without her
    stuffed doll Lillibett by Beamish, an abusive matron at the orphanage.
    When Terrance asks her (under hypnosis) about her father, she says she
    is an orphan and blows her and Jill's cover. Terrence tells Kelly that
    Jill is really Beemish in disguise and that she should kill her. Madam
    Dorian thinks she really *can* talk to the spirits. Terrance is the
    *real* bad guy and ends up killing Madam Dorian.

    HART TO HART
    "The Man With the Jade Eyes". A man collapses at the Harts' restaurant
    table and asks them to protect the man with jade eyes and take him to
    the temple.

    FANTASY ISLAND
    • "Reunion". Four high-school friends, each with a dark secret, gather
    for a ten-year reunion of their old group.

    • "Anniversary". Tom and Toni Elgin, who are drifting apart, relive
    their wedding day in hopes of patching things up.

    FAMILY GUY
    "Play Time". In this three act parody, the Griffins spoof the stage by
    putting up ?To Kill A Mockingbird,? ?The Odd Couple,? and ?Hamlet.?

    FAMILY GUY
    "Phony Montana". After going on a date with a Cuban-American woman
    named Carmen, Brian inexplicably develops a Cuban accent.

    Democrats and the liberal media hate President Trump more than they
    love this country.

    What did you watch?

    I watched the entirety of the Chad Vader, Day Shift Manager series.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SXuVP6mtIk

    YouTube was the home of some real creativity in those days. Even today,
    it's still one of the funniest things available on YouTube. The creators
    say that it send them into debt, though, so I guess today's clickbait- over-content model is more profitable.

    I blew it yesterday. I intended to watch a movie, but I took it so easy
    on my second day of Spring Break that I never actually got around to
    watching a movie! (nor did I watch March Madness!).

    I did watch soaps - I'll mostly skip DOOL (I guess they're getting ready
    to write Kristin DiMera out again, as Stacy Haiduk is back on Y&R - Y&R
    seems to be seriously poaching DOOL stars lately, as has "Beyond the
    Gates"!), but on GH stupid Lulu inadvertently sabotages Josslyn's and
    Britt's attempt to rub out WSB Director Cullum!!

    And I watched golf - Gary Woodland won the Houston Open to win his first tournament in 6(!!) years! Only in golf, man.

    I recorded last night's Lifetime flick (which stars a bunch of nobodies again!) for later.

    Most of my video viewing these days is Youtube repeats of UK news
    shows. My main concern is for my daughter who lives in Brighton which
    is near to one of the main UK illegal migrant landing points. The
    constant reports of sexual molestation makes me nervous.
