The Wonderful, Stories of the ISS Space Station, Netflix.

A must see for any space geek. Incredible footage and great stories from astronauts.
Mark Kelly relates the traditions that astronauts follow when they launch from Russia. including stopping the bus as its headed to the launch tower, at the same spot where Yuri Gagarin stopped, and getting out to pee on the tire, just like Gagarin did before his flight. They didn't say if any female astronauts followed the tradition.

Soooo, Netflix.

Last week Netflix announced new rules for accounts. While I guess I can understand the whole "password sharing" limitation, word is this might also effect those accessing their Netflix accounts while traveling/not at home (viewing on your phone might be effected too).

I have had periods where I don't watch Netflix for more than 2 months at a time. With the new rules you'll be required to log into your Netflix account at least once every 30 days from your home "device" (what if you choose to watch it on the TV in your bedroom where your normal "device" is the TV in your living room?). If you fail to log in at least once every 30 days your account will get disabled. Wait, what? So you still have to pay for a service they've decided to disable? Yep. I haven't heard any details on what you have to do to get it re-enabled, but it will surely be a hassle and one has to wonder if there will be a fee to get it re-enabled.

Anyone else considering dropping Netflix?

NF dropped an OOPS. where the internet ran with it being worldwide. But according to NF it's only happening in S/ America. FYI. IF they do here what they're starting in S/A it's an easy work around. They'll text you a pass code to enter. So you just have to pass that on to whoever is using you're spare tv, while visiting.

Finished S:2 of The Hunters. .

Without giving the series away. I'l say the last episode was very interesting, hopefully those who do not know. Might take the time to do some research

Is this the Al Pachino series? I couldn’t get past the third episode.

Three Pines fell flat. Liked Columbo(esk) feel of the lead detective.

The old Steve Canyon TV series is free to Prime members on the Zon. It's a lot of fun, and a loving look at the Old (real) Air Force with some nice flying scenes. Lot's of recognizable faces from the 60's guesting on it too.

Season 2 of Slow Horse on Apple TV. Gary Oldman is great in this role.

Cunk on Earth (mockumentary comedy)

3 short episodes on Netflix I watched on a flight today.

I LOL'd.


ETA: 5 episodes, Netflix hadn't downloaded them all (suggested for me) to my tablet.

That show is great, the look on the experts face when she asks those insane questions. Funny stuff!
