I'm on episode 7. It's very Goonies-ish with a more serious plot but very enjoyable. I'm glad it's not about the devil or possession because I wouldn't be able to watch it, lol.

I was immediately reminded of "E.T." and "Stand By Me".... with a much darker flavor.

We're watching Stranger Things as well. It's very good! Last episode tonight!

I'm going to have to start watching this show, before I end up reading spoilers all over the place.

Stranger Things was very good. I read that there will probably be a second series. Stranger Things season 2 all but confirmed by Netflix | News | Culture | The Independent

I was watching some of the Rio Olympics yesterday. I can't believe what happened in the cycling with all the crashes. The Italian man broke both of his collarbones.

I luckily missed the bit when the man broke his leg during the vault!

I just read this. Yes, it reminded me of The Goonies too and Stand by Me. It was nice to watch a show that wasn't really violent, it just had a good storyline.

This Stranger Things supercut shows how meticulous the show’s '80s references really are - Vox

Re: the Olympics: We were watching the men's final in judo last night between the Russian federation and Kazakhstan. It was very exciting. They were very skilled, so neither managed to score any points during the regular time (5 minutes). The Russian's shirt got untucked, but then the time ran out. So then it went to Golden Time! After a minute or so, the Russian managed to trip up the Kazakh, so he scored and therefore won. I'm sure Putin was particularly pleased with that one.

^My husband is watching the judo too, he used to do judo as a kid. He was quite good, he won a few medals.

We just finished watching "Stranger Things" season 1 and I liked it a lot! I have signed up for Netflix!

I don't know if any people on here watched the documentary Making a Murderer, but I just read that a judge overturned the murder conviction of Brendan Dassey.

I think we will have to watch that now!

I saw that news!

I didn't even see the documentary, but I have read so much about it as I was following a discussion which gave most of the details. Shocking!

I was watching the Olympics last night. Mo Farah was tripped and he picked himself up and still managed to win.

Greg Rutherford got bronze in the long jump. I read a story about him last year where he found an injured deer and carried it for 2 miles to get vet treatment.

Watched more of the Doctor-Who-A-Thon at Jerry's both last night & Friday... wonder if it'll still be goin' tonight....

‘Doctor Who’: Christmas in August | BBC America

I just have to say (and Jer & I discussed this & agreed)... the Weeping Angels are probably THE best, most unique, most awesomely terrifying, super-genius horror concept ever created!!

I get the biggest spooky thrill from those episodes! Wooo, love 'em! Friggin' brilliant!!

I have chills & goosebumps again.... LOL

We watched 50 Years of Star Trek | HISTORY

From concept & creation to TV's first inter-racial kiss to Nimoy's final interview... and everything in between you never even knew. So f*cking cool.

I missed that.

But...Mr. Robot was renewed for a third season!

If you haven't been watching this one, I highly recommend it.

I'm so annoyed that Joe Joyce didn't get gold in the boxing. Joe Joyce misses out on Team GB's 28th gold as Tony Yoka is awarded controversial win in the Super Heavyweight boxing final

I am happy that the new series of Tyler Henry starts tonight. Love it.
