>>>   6:35p  "Murder in a Small Town" (Metacritic: 56, 40-70, #7)

A former big-city detective, relocates to a small coastal town to find solace, only to encounter a string of murders.

Based on the Alberg and Cassandra Mysteries by L.R. Wright.

~~  Harsh review said, "It’s a clunky, exposition-heavy, slow-paced and straight-shooting procedural that lacks anything creative to help it stand out from the masses."

I found that review 5 mins in, so I'm not sure I should bother, except the TV season is off to a slow start.

But it's only 8 episodes.

~~  The first mystery is that my TiVo recorded 1 hour and 4 mins and that's the length reported

by imdb.com, but it seems to have started recording 26 mins in.  I know that I forgot to program 

my TiVo to record it, but I thought I had caught it while the start was still in the buffer.

However, if it started 26 mins in and recorded 64 mins, why didn't it end 34 in?

Probably, the 64 mins was without the ads.

~~  The show is set in a real town near Vancouver.  There had been another TV show set there

that ended in 1990 and there was a fictional restaurant, that has since become a real restaurant

that is seen in this show.

~~  There was a surprise ending and the show isn't that bad because the 2 leads have chemistry.

The main problem will be if there is another murder every week in the small town with a different

murderer.  When it's a book series, you might not think that each book happens a week apart.

"is a pretty dumb, inessential watch, but an entertaining one, mostly due to the performances of the main cast and guest stars."

It's funny that Trump and Harris hadn't met before last night's debate but then

I was looking for a recap and one said "The episode opens with..." but that

scene was 5 mins into the show.  Other recaps avoid saying that phrase, but they

also ignored the first 5 mins.

--   4:40p  Leaving via bike for dinner @Sonic: 2 burgers (half-priced on app).

I almost left because, unlike most other apps, it made me login again and I

couldn't remember my password.  In addition, it made me identify the squares with

bridges, bikes, and something else.

Surprisingly, Trump was able to tone down his usual claims of best or worst ever, 

by adding a word like "perhaps".

~~   It was not as decisive as I had hoped.  It seems it will all depend on 

how many people believe Trump's lies.  Harris didn't sufficiently counter his lies.

But they are lucky enough, because they will be part of a new Universal Basic Income program.

I haven't been able to find spice drops at Dollar Tree for a while, but they were in stock today,

so I bought a bunch. Later, when I tried them, they were terrible (compared to how they were before).

I wonder if they changed the formula to save money.

>>> 10:45p  "English Teacher" (Metacritic: 82, 50-100*3), #16)
About a teacher in Austin, TX.
Top review said: "A brilliant, warmhearted, low-stakes comedy."
Another said it "takes a refreshingly unsentimental look at public schools — and is one of the year’s funniest new shows."
~~  It stars the show's creator.
~~  The new physics teacher is filling in for unseen Jennifer, who is now on "The Amazing Race".
Jennifer Cram is a casting associate and Jen Ross is the music supervisor.
~~  The show is more of a dramedy, so it's not full of laughs, and I don't think it's quite
as good as the reviews implied, but I'll keep watching.

>>> 10:37a  "Veil, The" (4/30/24) on Hulu (Metacritic: 52, 20-90, #18)
Follows the relationship between two women playing a deadly game of truth and lies. One woman has a secret, and the other, an MI6 agent, has a mission to reveal it before thousands of lives are lost.
Top review says it's "Exciting and astonishing," but a harsh critic says, "There are too many gaping plot holes and silly characters," which is one reason that I've waited so long to check it out.
~~  This is the 2nd Hulu show this year with a main character named Imogen and both also had involvement of Interpol.
