We have Peacock. And Netflix, Prime, Apple, Discovery +, Disney +, Paramount +, and probably more that I can't remember.

I think Buffy, the Vampire Slayer was filmed in Canada, but it was supposed to be a US high school. 🙄 And Reacher is a US Veteran, he doesn't wander around Canada. LOL. ☺️ There are US Veterans characters in Narcos Mexico. Reacher was filmed in Ontario,Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle is just an obnoxious, arrogant jerk this season and Luka is really getting on my nerves now as well. He’s starting to remind me of Gary from BDSY but not to that extreme. Chef Jack and Tumi are the only ones I really like anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not uncommon for movies & shows to NOT be filmed on location and often times will subsitute one locale for another. For example, 8 of the 10 episodes of Peacocks "Poker Face" was filmed in the Hudson Valley just north of NYC, substituting for locations in Texas, Colorado & NJ. There is a brewery in Orange County, NY that was transformed into a BBQ in Texas and I'm 99.9% certain I recognized the Hudson River in scenes there were supposed to be Atlantic City, NJ. Oh sure, they throw in a couple seconds of "stock" exterior footage of the Atlantic City skyline or Rocky Mountains (for the "Colorado" episode) but everything else was filmed here in NY. "Denver Hospital" is actually Vassar Hospital in Poughkeepsie NY which I've been to as well as the IBM Office complex in Westchester, County, NY. National Lampoons Christmas Vacation is set in Chicago although nothing was actually filmed there. It was all done on Hollywood studio back lots and Breckenridge, CO for the wintry mountain scenes. Only a few seconds of stock exterior footage of the Chicago skyline was used. Canada is a popular filming location, lots of financial incentives makes it cost effective. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes,I realize that but they could attempt to do a better job.The scenes supposedly in Atlantic City look nothing like that.The same for Brooklyn.

There are currently 76 fires burning in NSW. We are expecting the smoke haze in Sydney to clear overnight. Good to hear the smoke haze is expected to clear. We had quite the Summer here with smoke haze as well as occasional ash hitting our pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw three cars in the ditch on the way down and 4 transports in the ditch on the way back. Looked like an episode of Heavy Rescue 401, to which the stretch we were on was feature quite frequently. The normal 1:10 minute drive took 1:40. Not too bad. We lost 3-1 as well. We finally scored on that team at least. Glad to hear that you all made it home safely last night. We all know the saying "It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game!" The boys on Owen's team are all winners, Andrew! How'd your Mom make out this morning at the surgeons?

Rare bobmacliberty Posted December 19, 2023 #110987 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I had a somewhat successful trip to Total Wine and More. No problem getting the Screwball Whiskey. They were out of Blue Light and only had a 12 pack of regular Labatt Blue cans left. I settled for regular Blue. The store employee that I talked to said they've had problems getting Canadian beer in general and haven't had any Blue Light since August 11. What's going on @A&L_Ont Andrew? Are Canadians drinking so much beer that there's not enough left to send across the border? 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Luka I really admired at first but now he just seems to have "Gary Syndrome" and wants to hook up with anyone he can. My favorites are Laura and Haleigh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted December 19, 2023 #110992 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Slowly watching the final season of The Crown. Just watching one episode at a time. It’s so humid here right now, that I watch an episode each night to cool down after taking Max for a long post dinner walk. Last night I watched the episode focusing on that fateful night in Paris. I think the actors that play Diana, Dodi and young William were cast well. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were there by 7:10 for the 7:30 apt. The process time was between 2-5 hours, and it took us 5, with extra time at the pharmacy to pick up some items for the surgery. The process included X-rays, blood work and meeting 4 different team members of the prep team at separate times. I’m beat though. I feel asleep at 1am and the alarm went off at 5:50. 15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Testing showed a problem so now she has to go for a catherization on the 22nd. Naturally, they didn’t do hip replacement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
