Just finished the last season of Adam 12. Easily the greatest cop show of all time.
I've been watching this You Tube series like I would a TV show (i.e. on my tv screen) and it has been quite good: Defragged History: The Eighty Years War
Each episode is over an hour long (thus watching it on the tv screen from the couch as if I were watching a regular show) and covers The Dutch War of Independence in enormous detail. If you like to take a deep dive into history (and in this case one of the lesser known but most pivotal wars in Europe), you will enjoy this documentary series; the visuals are excellent, the narrator has a good sense of humor, the detail is superb and it manages to make sense of a very confusing period of European history.
I very much recommend it.

An Inspector Calls.
Set in England in 1912, a police inspector arrives to question an upper-crust English family following the suicide of a young woman.

"Black Sea" on Netflix. Jude Law skippers an old sub that goes beneath the Russian Fleet in the Black Sea to recover gold from a sunken Nazi sub. Half the crew is American/British, half is Russian. Lots of conflict between the two groups. Pretty good movie.
Feb 15 is the last day to watch it on Netflix.

We continued our old sci-fi series with "World Without End", 1956. Don't bother. It was on the "just plain bad' side of the 'bad enough to be fun" line. ;-)

There's a Kirk moment:
The one claim to fame is that famed pin-up artist Alberto Vargas did a poster for the movie.
There are a lot of cheesy "space babes" movies from this era: Cat Women of the Moon, Fire Maidens from Outer Space, etc. If you want a great(?) example try "Queen of Outer Space" with Zsa Zsa Gabor.
Not so "conclusive" as the end of season three?...
Apparently, they only released half of the final season... There are another 7? episodes coming...Not so "conclusive" as the end of season three?...

Maybe we should wait, since we tend to work our way right to the end of whatever is available.Apparently, they only released half of the final season... There are another 7? episodes coming...
In the 80's there was kind of a resurgence of cheesy B-movies:
