I kind of hope La Brea blows

It's up my alley and I recorded the first two episodes but haven't watched them. The third is on today but I'm in an NBC blackout due to a dispute between Dish Network and Tegna. I could set up rabbit ears I guess but I don't think I even have a set anywhere?

Please tell me I'm not missing anything.

As a side note, these blackouts definitely blow. No NBC? How do I get my Lester Holt fix??

in the hole you hook up the antenna will give you reception. IDK if it will work on flat screens

SATV and CATV are in a race to the bottom with the quality of their services.

but I tried to like it and I didn't.

It seems like a tired concept with bad acting, cliched characters, and painful dialogue.

Oh well.

Those first seasons usually have rough edges and I can cut a little slack. There has to be something there to hook me though.

However, I think that's because my allergist was on that same corner for thirty five years. LOL!

We were just there for the opening of the Motion Picture Academy Museum two weeks ago.

I'm enjoying it for the awful TV it is. Gotta watch something until Manifest comes back.
