What did you watch?

 Just soaps, which I'm mostly going to skip recapping today - DOOL (Tu's ep), GH (Wed's ep), and B&B "live". B&B is the one I'm going to talk about it, because I saw Tu's ep "live" too - cute, but crazy!/EVOL! Luna shoots Sheila in the foot, and then shoots Liam while trying to shoot Steffy (too bad Luna missed!), and then gets herself shot. So they're all rushed to the hospital - Luna flatlines on the OR table, and I'm guessing they're just going to kill her off. No more EVOL! cuteness!!
:(
 I've also seen snippets of the last 2 days of Y&R before going to work - they are still stringing out everybody being stuck in France by NuCane Ashby.
 What did you watch?
 

This is a late multiday catch up.  Over the last few days I watched:
Nautilus - "What Lies Beneath" - The crew of the Nautilus go ashore where they meet someone offering them fresh supplies and help.  But is it too good to be true or is Nemo just paranoid?
Family Guy - "Row v. Wade" - Episode from last week.  Brian wins a boat on the price is Right and decides to use it to provide free abortions for women in Texas.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia - "The Gang F***s Up Abbott Elementary" - Season 17, episode 1.  This is the other half of the "Abbott Elementary" crossover.  It shows the events a bit more from The Gang's perspective and more of what the gang was up to when the camera was focused on the school staff.
"Frank Is In a Coma" - Season 17, episode 2.  I didn't give this my full attention, but basically Frank was in a coma while everyone else rejoiced at their pending inheritance.
DC League of Super-Pets (HBO Max) 2022 animated movie.  Dwayne Johnson voices Superman's dog Krypo and Kevin Hart voices an abandoned dog at the pound.  The two are forced to team up to save the day after Lex Luthor's pet skinny pig gains super powers and manages to take out the Justice League.  Meh!
Superman (theatrical) New Superman movie written and directed by James Gunn.  David Corenswet stars as a new, younger, Superman who has only been active for a few years. After Superman stops two countries from waging war Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) uses social media along with healthy doses of lies, to turn people against Superman.  Unlike the last few Superman adventures this movie is very much a comic book film.  None of that gritty real world nonsense.  This Superman proudly wears red trunks on the outside of his suit, has Superman robots, and super dog named Krypto.  Technically, it's not his dog, but we don't need to get into that right now.  The other thing that separates this movie from the last few Superman movies is it returns focus to Clark Kent as a character as well as a focus on the Daily Planet and the staff there. Not only is there a Jimmy Olsen in this movie, but he actually has lines and his character is important to the plot.  I'm still processing all of it.  I'll see it again this weekend and will have a better idea how I feel about it then.  But for now at least, I definitely liked it.  And I'm looking forward to seeing a new more comic accurate Superman universe.
