Flipping the Channel

This week Elizabeth is riding out oppressive heat and apocalyptic wildfire smoke with real 2020 Flashback Energy, also included: a heroic 31-movies-in-31-days finish (two on the last day, no regrets), and the triumphant return of “cable,” which is not cable, but she’ll take it. Turns out the real prize isn’t the shows — it’s getting to flip mindlessly between them again instead of Committing to a Title, our girl finds her rebellion in unique ways these days. Don’t try to tell her what to watch in what order. Then she opens an unofficial case file on House Hunters and Beachfront Bargain Hunt: the couples who narrate their own house tours like they’ve never seen a bathroom before, and the husbands who will torch a family’s actual bedroom count for a fancy grill they can “see themselves” using. The wives are holding it together by a thread and Elizabeth is, frankly, here for the drama. Wraps up getting the ick from our weird celebrity culture and making the call now: cable’s coming back, baby.doom-loop weather, chaotic cable, and zero patience left for celebrities. subscribe because it’s likely going to get weirder.
