Hulu has put up the first two episodes of season three of "Only Murders in the Building".

Meryl Streep guests in the first one.  Paul Rudd is in both of them.  I was very entertained!!!

I am very interested in this newish 360 Audio Reality Sound.  I read on FB a guy saying he was in heaven listening to the remastered Sondheim shows in that process.

I have yet to find any source of such recordings.   Playbill did offer links, but every time I selected a track on one of the recordings, it only partially played.  What's the point of having the whole thing available but not being able to rejoice in listening to it as recorded?

Starting the new season of Brokenwood Mysteries. A musical version of Brokenwood begins the story. Hilariously bad. Rabies rhymes with babies. And a rather bizarre murder midshow.

Loved that episode.

The best joke so far was about the “acidic” Jew backstage.

Vixmom, your grandchild is going to be born in Florida. Are you okay with that?

I’m not thrilled.  Hoping against hope that they’ll finally wise up and vote the criminals out and replace the hate with sensibility.

I got to play stacking blocks with the wee little ones yesterday during church. And no one cried.

Not even you?! Well done!

How does one call them up?  Any time I enter one of the shows, I get the OBC original release...not a remaster.

Took a little break. I don't really have to write any more this evening, unless I feel inspired to do so. I've done sixteen pages and got through what I believe is the last of the really major sequences. Everything from here on in should be shorter.

Jane, have you read any of Rhys Bowen’s stand-alone novels? I enjoyed them all, but I think The Venice Sketchbook is my favorite.

If Trump, for whatever reason, leaves the political arena, what do you think would happen to De Santis and other Trump wannabes? Would they change their stripes? Disappear?

The apartment beneath mine — my late friend Zen’s place — is being renovated and today the demolition of the kitchen and bathroom started. Bang! Bang! Bang! Ugh.

He had quite a few LPs. I went through some today, but there are many, many more. I grabbed the Segovia and Laurindo Almeida. I guess what I don’t take will go to a thrift shop.

I assume they’ll try to court his rabid followers by playing up his persecuted he was, and then just attempt to mirror his bad but successful behaviors

Things I like watching on YouTube are old interviews with actors and directors, What’s My Line?, old free movies.

So, I wanted to find out a little more about the opera The Hours and came across this website:

And it had the whole opera from what must've been a Europen broadcast.

It's very noticeable especially during the bows, and the after-show interviews on the broadcast have interviews with the composer and librettist, and the conductor, that this downloadable version doesn't have.
