2026 Movies and TV Shows

I've been watching Stuart Fails to Save the Universe. It's totally different from The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon, and Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage. It sort of reminds me of the old TV show Sliders. Mainly it's stupidly entertaining, but I'll keep watching it. Plus, it's great seeing some of the original cast members. I think the only cast members who haven't appeared yet are Sheldon, Leonard, Howard, and Amy. I don't know if Priya might count, since she was on toward the end of the series.
 
There’s one game show that’s been on for nearly a month. I just started watching it, Nation’s Dumbest, and the contestants are:

  • JoJo Siwa
  • Ice-T
  • Steve-O
  • Hilaria Baldwin
  • Andrew Yang
  • Carmen Electra
  • Anthony Michael Hall
  • Chase Hudson
  • Matt Leinart
  • Jon Heder
  • Dr. Drew Pinsky
  • Elle King
The show is pretty entertaining. The leaderboard shifts throughout the competition: correct answers move a celebrity up by earning more stars, while wrong answers can send them down into the danger zone.

There are different types of challenges, including:
  • Logic & Lateral Thinking: Puzzles like “Mayer’s 2 Ropes” test basic problem-solving and everyday reasoning.
  • Grade-School Pop Quizzes: Nostalgic trivia covering things like geography, spelling, zoology, and history.
  • Physical Gym Class Tasks: Fast-paced games involving coordination, balance, and physical agility, such as spinning-wheel challenges.
  • The Final Exam: The lowest-performing contestants face a high-stakes final test to see who avoids—or earns—the ultimate unwanted title.
  • Graduation: The best-performing (or least “dumb”) contestants can safely graduate from the episode early.
It’s basically a bunch of celebrities being put through tests that you’d expect them to have learned in grade school, and watching them struggle with some of the questions is what makes it so entertaining.
 
I had a nice time at the Tuesday movie today with my Monica Barbero movie. "One Night Only" I was served by my favorite free Popcorn lady I had not seen in a few months, but I did not buy anything extra like a hotdog or soda. I had this movie circled on my calendar since early May when I saw the pin up poster, but the previews did not look so good. But it was a really cute idea: Unmarried couples could not have sex except for one night in the year. Maya Hawke was also in the movie as well as Molly Ringwald and Levar Burton played the parents. And they had phone photos of Chris Hemsworth (who was in the last Monica Barbero movie) and Sydney Sweeney. And musical background from Arlo Parks and The Jungle. It turned out to be surprisingly better than the previews. I would call it the Sleeper of the Year #3.

This week I also saw The Family Plan 2 on Apple TV. It was good with the ending credits by Benson Boone's "Mr Electric Blue" Apple shows most of the ending credit before it cuts to the next movie/show. I think I saw The Family Plan on Apple TV too. That one was better than 2

I am still debating if I want to go see "The Odessey" since it is 3 hours long, but it should still be around for at least another two weeks
 
And she was a physicist:



What an epic Bond line: "I thought Christmas only comes once a year". Hahahahah. Bond was so corny good.
I thought that was Denise Richards

Going back to my movie on Tuesday "One Night Only", it was a bit like "Nick n Nora's Infinite Playlist"
An overnight adventure with New York City as the setting
