Each Wednesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. This week, the flashback dial spun to Charlie, so we got to find out about his story and also see him become a hero and quit heroin, so that's quite a win for him.Next Tuesday, we'll discuss season 1, episode 8, "Confidence Man"; we're switching our Lost discussions from Wednesdays to Tuesdays to accommodate Only Murders in the Building on Wednesdays.

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.Catherine's library find is actually an app that helps her keep track of some of her library finds (and make them Instagram-ready). It's called Bookmory.Terri's random recommendation is more of a PSA: Don't take pity on sweet-looking young people going door to door and invite them in. And if you do let a stranger into your home, don't show them your electric bill.In the archives, we checked in on the joys of homeownership, most

This week, we got another set of flashbacks and another wait, what? revelation, although it was not as shocking as Locke's "this island restored my ability to walk" news.Next Wednesday, we'll discuss season 1, episode 7, "The Moth."

2024/08/08

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.Catherine's library find this week is another kids' nonfiction book that relies on a scatological title to grab the attention of reluctant readers (see also: Butt or Face?). This one's called Fish Farts: And Other Amazing Ways Animals Adapt by Joanne Settel.Terri's random recommendation is a new venture from actor, author, and audiobook narrator Julia Whelan. It's called Audiobrary, and we'll be interested to see how it does as it

2024/08/07

Each Wednesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. This episode brought Jack to the brink, as he was haunted (maybe literally?) by his dad and his past demons, so much so that he ran himself right off the side of a cliff. The good news is that Locke was there to save the day, so that Jack could resume his job as de factor leader and mom to all. Mentioned: The Lostpedia page on this episode.Next Wednesday, we'll discuss season 1, episode 6, "House of the Rising

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.Catherine's library find this week is a movie that somehow seems to be very popular in her library system: Sasquatch Sunset. If you're looking for an adventure/comedy told entirely in grunts, this one's for you!Terri's random recommendation is a book she thinks is worth your while: Hands of Time: A Watchmaker's History by Rebecca Struthers. It's especially appealing in the audiobook version, narrated by Anna Ploszajski.In the

On Tuesdays, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property. Currently, that's A Gentleman in Moscow, a limited series on Paramount+. In episode 4, "Good Times," Alexander has become a gentlemanly waiter, and is realizing that life in the hotel is not representative of life in the real world. And by the end of the episode, he's become a surrogate father (...maybe grandfather, at this point) again.

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.Catherine's library find is another scary nonfiction series for children: Deadly Biters (including Grizzly Bears Bite!, Piranhas Bite!, Hippos Bite!, and more). Mentioned: The similar series Animal Battles and Who Would Win?.Terri's random recommendation is a set of games that test your knowledge of movies, actors, fun facts, and the way they all intersect: Cinematrix, Movie Grid, and Movie Pyramid.

2024/07/24

Each Wednesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. This episode, "Tabula Rasa," focused on flashbacks to Kate's back story, so we learned more about how she was pursued all the way to Australia by a U.S. Marshal (if not exactly why she was in his sights). We also saw a real parenting win when Locke recovered Walt's dog, but let Michael be the hero who reunited the two.Next Wednesday, we'll discuss season 1, episode 4, "Walkabout."

In episode 3, "The Last Rostov," the Count's reckoning with all the changes in his world brings him to the brink, but a kindly beekeeper rescues him. He also deepens his relationships with Anna (the actress) and Osip (the official who supervises his captivity). Plus. Nina's back—as a teen know-it-all.

Parenting Roundabout ·

2024/07/18

Here's what's on our minds (and playlists) this week:Catherine's library find is a book she judged by its cover. Glassworks's art and blurbs appealed enough for Catherine to give this debut novel by Olivia Wolfgang-Smith a try (it also happens to be on the Staff Picks table at her library right now, chosen by another staff member). It's a creative, but uneven, tale of four generations trying, and often failing, to connect with and support one another.Terri's random recommendation is the latest album

Parenting Roundabout ·

2024/07/17

Each Wednesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. Happily for Catherine, the second part of the pilot was much less migraine-inducing than the first part. The castaways are likely not as happy, as they are dealing with mysterious monsters, mysterious fellow passengers, and mysterious raw fish dishes. As for parenting, we're giving Michael a pass for now, but he's going to need to step up his game.Next Wednesday, we'll discuss season 1, episode 3, "Tabula Rasa."

"An Invitation," the second episode of eight, did in fact bring a couple of invitations (some threatening, some not), along with a secret expansion of the Count's living quarters and--sadly—the departure of his young friend, Nina.Next Tuesday, we'll discuss the third episode of the series, "The Last Rostov."
