Agreed. I'm not sure if that comes off with my posts.
I watched The Sweeney a while ago, I think sometime this year, on BritBox. I like the feel for the older era of television from the 1970s. I have not watch the newer version from this century. I think that is a movie (???). I enjoy John Thaw.

This morning's viewing...

Ghost Hunters

Still season 9 on Netflix

Later, early afternoon...
The episode is called Family Plot. The second have deal with the farm of Louise Bromfield, a Pulitzer winning author. It centers around his daughter Anne, who the TAPS team say was "dealing with mental issues." From their description, it sounds like she was on the autism spectrum. My evidence was flimsy. Then I found this quote from an article that references her having autism.
A Malabar Farm legacy comes to an end.
The article states -
Quote:
This appears to be a gloss on the experience of the oldest Bromfield child, Anne, who at the very least was somewhere along the autism spectrum in her youth, but then apparently suffered adult-onset schizophrenia as she aged.
I also read that the family hid her autism away from the socialite friends. Autism does not come up in the episode, and I wonder if she was not misdiagnosed?

The reason this made an impression was I was thinking last night "If there are ghosts, what is the ghost of a person who is/was on the autistic spectrum in life like?" Perhaps I should make a thread asking that question. Although it is an exercise in imagination to answer because one cannot prove the existence of ghosts. It is a belief. Therefore one can only speculate. The question came to me while I was reading the book, Hungry Bones by Louise Hung. (Autism does not play a role in the book, but I wondered what if it did?)

It has been a paranormal day.

On Netflix
Ghost Hunters, season 8, episodes 1 through 6.
1 - Roller Ghoster
2 - Buyer Beware
3 - Flooded Souls
4 - Dead & Breakfast
5 - Moonshine & Madness
6 - City Hell

On Max
Kindrid Spirits
Season 1, episodes 1 through 3
1 - Breaking and Entering
2 - Cabin in the Woods
3 - Trapped in the Attic

Max has the episodes in a different order than what is on IMDB.

The show features Amy Bruni and Adam Berry, who were previously on Ghost Hunters. Their investigations are maybe a bit more intimate than Ghost Hunters. They attempt to identify if there are spirits, who the spirits belong to, and to help the property owner and the spirit be at peace. Smaller budget, less tech, interesting results. They started the series after leaving Ghost Hunters.
The incidental music is just as dramatic as Ghost Hunters. The editing is not.
Amy has a podcast called Haunted Road. As I recall, she tells a story, and she has a guest. Adam has appeared on her show. I enjoyed the podcast. I enjoy Kindred Spirits.
Whether one believes in such things or not, Amy and Adam have always seemed more genuine, in my opinion.

Ramblings

Yvonne Strahovski plays a country veterinarian. It has been 17 years since she first appeared as Sarah Walker on Chuck. I really enjoyed that show. I enjoyed that show. It has been 12 years since she first played Hannah McKay on Dexter. Point is, she is now 42 and she looks her age. That's not a bad thing.
Kathy Baker is also in this horror drama. She plays a grandmother with multiple sclerosis, has taste for Neil Young, and medical cannabis. She was 40 when she tried to seduce Edward Scissorshands. She was 42 when she played Dr. Jill Brock, wife of the local sheriff on Picket Fences. Those are the roles I remember her from, though I've seen her in more.
The first episode was interesting because the featured a few Neil Young songs on the radio. I wouldn't say I'm a bit Neil Young fan, but I respect his talent. There is also a visual reference to Harry Nilsson, and the ending song is Harry Nilsson singing Think About Your Troubles. Nilsson I really like. And John Lennon once said, in the sixties, that Nilsson was a favorite band. :D

Trivia: Tomorrow, October 23, is Steve's birthday.

Under the Bridge (2024)
Eight part mini series on Hulu
Three episodes down. Five to go.

IMDB wrote:
Fourteen-year-old Reena Virk went to join friends at a party and never returned home. Seven teenage girls and a boy were accused of the savage murder.
Different plot, but the feel reminds me of the British series Broadchurch, if you are familiar with that.
Different plot, but they both have a murder.
Lots of misleading information as the mystery is worked out. Like that sentence, incomplete information.

Almost six hours later...
Finish the mini series. I enjoy it. It was sad, and the human side was complicated. I'm not a doctor, but I believe one person was portrayed as a psychopath. Maybe a homicidal sociopath. I'm not a doctor.
