Mondays are my longest workdays this semester, and I had just gotten back from travel anyway, so I didn't watch much yesterday. Just trying to still catch up on soaps from last week:
 soaps: DOOL - Tue's and Wed's ep's. Mostly, these weren't very interesting. The main event was the Joy pregnancy drama thing - they ended up doing the exact opposite of what I was expecting: I figured Joy wouldn't be preggers and would lie and say she was, but instead it turns out she is pregnant but lies to Alex and Stephanie and says she isn't. (So, is Joy going to get an abortion?...) Xander and NuPhilip let Alex in on the plan to hostile takeover DiMera. Brady refuses to back up Ava when she wants to go to the cops after being attacked by Kristen's crazy mommy, and so she drops Brady like a rock. (Righteous! Now I hope Ava goes to the cops anyway!) Kristen's crazy mommy blackmails EJ (maybe EJ will have her killed?...). NuGabi is incensed that Belle and Paulina seem to be doing nothing to bring EJ in for allegedly kidnapping Rafe. Javi wants to move Leo in with Rafe and Gabi (yeah! that'll go over great!!).
 Otherwise, I left LMN movies on in the background - last night, LMN reaired 2024's "Killing for Extra Credit" (with Jake T. Austin as the "surprise" killer!!) as part of their "Spring Breakdowns". Meh.
 What did you watch?
 

I watched:
Cobra Kai (Netflix) "Underdogs" - Season 6, episode 4 - The new combined Cobra Kai Miyagi-Do dojo have to select 6 students to compete in the big tournament and to make the selection process fair, Daniel and Johnny agree to bring in Mike Barnes (Sean Kanan), the hired goon from Karate Kid part 3 to select the top six.  I love how this show keeps bringing back the characters from the movies.  Johnny and Mike don't get along, leading to the two of them having a gratuitous fight.  Of course, this is Cobra Kai, and every episode has at least two gratuitous fights.  Not that I'm complaining.  It was nice seeing the villain from part 1 and the villain from part 3 talking smack about each other then fighting.
Matlock "Game Face" - Season 1, episode 15 - I really didn't give this my full attention.
Found - "Missing While Seeking Asylum" - Season 2, episode 15.  More background noise.
Invincible (Amazon) - "I Thought You'd Never Shut Up" - Season 3 finale.   I keep on forgetting to mention I watched the finale a few days ago. This was a really good season finale.  The penultimate episode was basically 30 minutes of nonstop fighting.  And the finale was also 30 minutes of non stop fighting, just a different opponent.  But this show has some excellent no holds barred fight sequences.
