This is a new French series. There was a bit more nudity in episode 5.

The premise:

“Follows a woman who stumbles upon the body of Ismael, a teenager who disappeared thirty years earlier, with the event taking her back to 1991 and seeing her wake up every morning in the body of a different person.”

I think industry people refer to this as “high concept.” That’s industry argot for what we civilians call “bullshit.” (To be fair, some great films and shows are based on worse ideas. It’s all in what they do with it.)

Nearly 60 per cent of US voters would back independent candidate over Biden or Trump

Ross Perot made the mistake of being born too early and having to run against two fairly popular candidates. If he were alive now, he could probably beat these two! Come to think of it, I don’t think there is anything in the Constitution that requires the candidate to be alive.

Speaking of not being alive … I don’t remember how to do actuarial calculations, but I wonder about the odds that both Biden and Trump will be alive in November, 2024. They are both elderly. Biden looks more feeble every day, and Trump is obese. That would be an interesting prop bet for those online gambling sites.

That, including the part in parens, is actually their tag line.

Man, if he doesn’t like it, it might really be their last. Well, I guess there’s no way to know whether he’ll like it, but I suppose he’ll take a stab at it. I just hope this doesn’t turn him into a cereal killer.

I’ll bet it’s made with blood oranges.

Skipping past any additional bad OJ jokes, here’s a quote from the website, “Honey almond clusters that are made to be spooned and sipped.” The box comes with a straw.
