What did you watch?
Yesterday, I did stuff, which means I mostly put sports on while I did stuff. I did also get through some soaps:
soaps: Y&R - Thur's & Fri's ep's. Mostly not very interesting stuff. Diane wants to redecorate the Abbott estate house (why is this a storyline?!). Amy and Nate realize the guy they've been meeting isn't Amy's son - the dude admits that he's just working for Amy's son, so the real son sets up a "meet" with Nate. Daniel continues to be suspicious of Billy's new venture with Filis[sic!]; after Daniel leaves, Filis gives Billy a hard time for traipsing off to Paris with Sally. Chloe reviews Billy's dating history with Sally!
GH - Fri's ep. Nina pitches an alliance with Carly (to Carly) to break up Willow and Drew. Drew meets with Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota), but Laura crashes the meeting and exposes Sidwell's past to Drew. Jordan tells Anna that she intends to wear a wire with Sidwell to get dirt on Sidwell. Cyrus is now banned from the recovery facility; first, he then confronts Lulu (despite the restraining order) and Lulu rats Cyrus out to Anna, and then Cyrus for some reason becomes convinced that Lizzie is the one who broke into his place (so Lizzie is probably in danger). Sonny discovers he needs a pacemaker, but refuses to get one right now.
golf - Euro Thomas Detry blew away the field at the (WM) Phoenix Open, winning by 7 strokes, for his first PGA win. The only other thing of note was Justin Thomas holing off the fairway on the 18th hole to get an eagle, and vaulting Thomas into a tie for firth(? I believe).
2025 Super Bowl - Ugh. This was a throwback to the 1980s and 1990s Super Bowls where the NFC teams regularly blew out the AFC teams... Except for in the fourth quarter, Kansas City could do absolutely nothing, as Mahomes was constantly rushed, forcing interception after interception. IOW, unless you were a Phili fan, this game was boring.
The halftime show wasn't my thing, but at least Lamar's show was simple - just him and dancers. No theatrics or stunts.
Sidenote: I watched this off the Tubi app on the Apple TV which promised 4k. But, as expected, I'm not convinced this was "true 4k" - my suspicion is that it was 1080p "upscaled" to 4k by Fox. So while the image of the game was clear, it wasn't "hyper-sharp" like you expect from 4k.
