The holidays mean everything slows down, including the shows to watch. His Dark Materials and The Mandalorian are the only regular shows this week, but Lost in Space‘s second season drops, and if you’re a fan of Holiday Specials, Call The Midwife and Mrs. Brown’s Boys has you covered.

The final installment of the new Star Wars trilogy is out in theaters, so it’s time for some thoughts on the film.
Today is my 12th wedding anniversary, and all of the shows, even the ones not wiped out by a Crisis, have decided to celebrate and take the week off. Except Watchmen, who seem to be falling into Crisis after all. His Dark Materials gets extra dark, with children in fights to the death. The Mandalorian doesn’t give us anything to go on, but each episode has been better than a good chunk of the movies, so it doesn’t really have to. Looking ahead, if you are planning for the next week, while you are on a stake-out for the fat man who is breaking and entering, you’ve got two more episodes of these shows an a season of Lost in Space. I will be using the time to catch up on Runaways from last week, first.
