It’s that time of the season when the days are shorter, and the temps are cooler. That means more time indoors and probably way too much screen time. However, this ain’t your mom and pops entertainment era so we have many more options to keep us stimulated. Nowadays folks are searching for a new series to binge watch or waiting for the release of a new movie on their favorite streaming service. Kids no longer watch Saturday morning cartoons like I did growing up, because their form of entertainment comes from YouTube and TikTok. I have introduced my kids to some of the nostalgic programs I watched as a kid like Fat Albert, Scooby Doo, The Little Rascals, and School House Rock (Conjunction Junction, What’s Your Function?) and they liked them all for the most part. This generation of young folks have an incredible number of entertainment options and they are learning so much more than I did at that age. Although TikTok gets a bad rap, my kids have discovered cooking hacks, learned facts about history that I never knew, and have been inspired to give back. So there is some good coming from what parents and the government are concerned about.
I’m excited about this month’s “Entertainment” issue as we feature the one and only Candace Bushnell. I’m sure I’m not the only guy that watched “Sex and The City” on HBO many years ago, even though it was probably mostly watched by women, I thought it was clever, funny, and entertaining. I actually got man shamed out of going to watch the movie premiere many years ago by some of my boyz (Mark, Charles, & Montague) so I haven’t been up on the latest from the ladies (Samantha was my favorite by the way) in a while, but I do know that Mr. Big died while riding his Peloton which kinda killed Peloton as well. Pretty crazy! Also our resident film critic returns with a suggested list of movies and shows to watch and stream, so we have you covered for the next couple of months. If you have any entertainment recommendations, be sure to reach out to me. It’s always good to be in the know. Enjoy FLM October.
