   You must be enjoying this. Maybe I'll give it a shot, now that I finally   
   have control of a TV again.   
      
   > What did you watch?   
      
   I watched three more episodes of The Neighborhood. It's not exactly edgy   
   -- all the racial conflicts are stereotypical and minor -- and that   
   works well for a staid sitcom. The Dave-Calvin interactions are the   
   heart of the show, with Dave trying too hard and Calvin rolling his   
   eyes. Gemma and Tina, their wives, can flex enough to get along better.   
      
   Some of the best moments are when each father is interacting with the   
   other's children. Calvin and Tina babysat Grover for Dave and Gemma's   
   anniversary, and when Grover insisted he should get dessert despite   
   having refused to eat catfish, he sparked a short-lived rebellion from   
   Calvin's sons. I'd like to find a more substantial show as well, but   
   this one is great for mindless relaxation.   
      
   What did everyone else watch?
