    I seized control of the TV long enough to watch two new
    Krapopolis episodes, s3e01 and s3e02. Both were decent;
    neither was exceptional. Gur svefg fubjf Gl ubyqvat na
    ryrpgvba, guvaxvat gung jvaavat na ryrpgvba jvyy tvir uvz
    na vzcerffvir znaqngr, naq bs pbhefr ur ybfrf vafgrnq.
    Jr'er abj va na nep jurer Gl vfa'g xvat.

    The show has some laughs, but it's one of those shows I
    watch mostly for the originality of the premise. I want
    to encourage them to make more shows which are outside
    the standard bounds.

    I also watched a few Superstore reruns. Superstore
    remains a fine show, but I've seen it enough times that
    it's easy to drift in and out.

    I had to check if this was a real show or not. LOL

    I caught up on Law & Order and SVU. I finished Survivor.
    And I went to the movies and watched "Good Fortune."


    Good Fortune was written and directed Aziz Ansari. Keanu Reeves stars
    as a low level angel who oversteps his bounds when he tries to help
    Ansari. Ansari plays a down on his luck homeless man, who does odd jobs
    for a living. Reeves tries to show Ansari that life isn't as bad as he
    thinks by swapping his life for the life of a tech billionaire played by
    Seth Rogen. But to Reeves shock, Ansari prefers living the life of a billionaire to being homeless, and doesn't want to swap back. And
    Reeves can only swap them back, if Ansari agrees to the swap. Rogen
    doesn't take it very well either once he realizes who he used to be and Ansaari is now living his life. I found it mildly amusing with the
    occasional laugh, but held my interest throughout.
