Staged (on BritBox)

Michael Sheen and David Tennant as themselves, trying to rehearse for a play over Zoom during COVID lockdown. It’s a hoot. I’ve watch the first three episodes, and I’m beginning to think that they will never get around to speaking any actual lines from the script.

[edit - Nope. In episode 4 (I think) they start a read-through and get two or three lines of dialog out before they start fighting. Again. :laughing:]

This was a lot of fun. I’m curious as to what others think of the backing track chord progression. I am not a live performing musician, so I cannot always understand musical notations. In this progression, what do others think is the intent of the progression. Is it intentionally ambiguous? What key is it in? For example, what do the inversions Am/G# mean? An Am triad would be A,C,E. What is the Am/G# triad for example? Isn’t that just the uninverted triad?

I was thinking of trying my hand at improvising over this backing track.

It’s an Am with a G# in the bass, the walkdown Am/A Am/G# Am/G Am/F# to an F is called a line cliche

Love the idea but after a while the out of tune business is grating. I hope he finds a way to crack that, it would be awesome.

Incredible stuff.

“3 Body Problem” on Netflix.

If you liked “Lost”, this would probably appeal to you.

Turns out there’s an earlier Chinese version, now on youtube with English subtitles. I’ll have to check that out after.

Oh yeah, I can vouch for that! You have to commit to watching the first two episodes and get over the “I’m not so sure about this” hump, and then it really starts to grip you. It’s out there, well worth it and you might get hooked!

It’s like a cozy hangout spot where we can chill and swap recommendations like trading cards. So, what am I watching? Lately, I’ve been diving into some classic sitcoms like “Friends” and “The Office” for those feel-good laughs after a long day of patching. But hey, variety is the spice of life, right? Sometimes I’ll switch it up with a gripping crime drama or a mind-bending sci-fi flick just to keep things interesting. And you know what’s cool? Finding hidden gems on sites like onlinetvcast.com, where you can stumble upon shows and movies you might never have heard of otherwise.

But seriously, isn’t it fascinating how our taste in entertainment reflects our personalities? Like, some folks might be all about that adrenaline rush from action-packed blockbusters, while others prefer the slow burn of a thought-provoking indie film.

I finally wrapped “The Days”:

A semi-fictionalized account of the Fukushima Daichi disaster.

Now on to the last few episodes of “Bodies”, a mini-series on Netflix

Four detectives separated by many decades, one body to investigate.

Maybe it’s even educational? who knows, it’s entertaining nonetheless. :smiley:

Nice video! With the recent EU Directive on repair of goods, we’ll hopefully see many more repairs in the future :smiley:.
