kitmerlot_1213I haven’t done one of these is awhile—a Random Post of Randomness—Summer Addition :):)
1. I am currently in the middle of summer play series at the Bucks County Playhouse and thus far we’ve seen Steel Magnolias and The Buddy Holly Story. Both plays were exceedingly well done and I’m looking forward to the rest of the season.
2. I truly love the PBS show Father Brown—although I can’t say the same for the original short stories—the mysteries are well done and despite the main character being a priest, religion is not the center piece of the show.
3. The three episode PBS mini-series for Endeavour has finished and I can’t say enough good things about Roger Allam’s Inspector Fred Thursday. The man is intelligent, has street smarts and is a great detective. He also sees the potential in Morse and encourages him to keep improving himself within the department.
4. The five year jump on Pretty Little Liars has been horrendous because the show ruined the awesomeness of Hanna/Caleb’s romance and the great Spencer/Hanna friendship. The Spencer/Caleb “romance” is forced and ridiculous especially when they go on about their magical night in Madrid. Caleb is officially ruined but Spencer can still be redeemed. Hanna’s already improved—she escaped from her kidnapper and has put her angst aside to help her friends. She may still love Caleb, but she loved Spencer more and wants her happiness.
5. I truly hope Marisa Tomei is replaced as Aunt May in the new Spiderman movie. I saw Captain America Civil War and she was totally inappropriate in her scenes with Tony Stark and Peter Parker—she was playing the scene as though she was waiting for her boyfriend to come home instead of her nephew. GROSS!
