So, if I wanted to watch Cobie's new series, Stumptown, from another country so that I could add to the ratings:

1. Is that even possible?
2. Is there an ABC official site I could see from Australia?
3. Would it drop in Australia anytime before, oh, NEVER?

I mean, I'm not hopeful, but I'm also not up with any advances in worldwide distribution that media companies may or may not have made since the days when I watched Stargate and Merlin. The Game Of Thrones wave passed me by entirely and anything else that I felt like watching has been on Netflix.

(Okay, so, I went looking on Netflix for things to watch and while I saw an episode of The Umbrella Academy it didn't manage to hook me hard enough to watch any further episodes.

Otherwise Titans looks entertaining, but...I really struggle to actually press play on any TV show...and then sit still long enough to watch it. As in really struggle. I don't think I have AHD, but I have a lot of things going in my life and...)

Anyway, Stumptown.

Anyone watching it? Don't tell me if you have seen it and haven't liked it, please. Don't tell me about any negative reviews, or your best friend's dismissal of it, or that scene where something triggery happened. (I realise that triggering events are a problem for people; by all means, let them know! However I'd like to see this one for myself.) Frankly, at this point, anything inhibiting is likely to throw me off course and I'd like to watch this and at least trt to enjoy it without someone pre-harshing my squee.

I am one part amused, one part horrified by the Amazon Prime 'superheroes are assholes' production "The Boys", which visually riffs off 'the Cap Trio' so strongly the first time I saw it, I thought "have they got Falcon and Winter Soldier out already?"

I didn't quite spot the BW expy in there, although there's an expy!Cap-standing-really-close-to-a-woman-in-black scene so...probably?

Also: Karl Urban is working the scruffy SebStan look like it's going out of style.

I am ridiculously excited for Stumptown. RIDICULOUSLY.

I just want to get into something that I can be excited about with other people again.

I know, that presumes that there's anyone excited about this other than me which is a distinct possibility. BUT. I'm hoping. I'm always hoping.
