"It rained three times last year..."
Undated doc about life in Mauretania after an 8-year drought came to an end. Now I think, this is enough information to get a rough idea of when it was. Anyway, a time when natural history docs didn't need tiresome on-screen presenters to patronise all and sundry. Also a sad omen of a future where climate change and political leadership spells calamity all round.

Richard Burton - Wild Genius
He was talented, then he met Elizabeth Taylor, then he met the drink, then Hollywood gave her an Oscar and not him, then he realised the problem, then he married someone less stressful, then he died at 58.

Battersea Junction
Another of these social history efforts; from estate life, tower blocks, and the rise of So Solid Crew, to prospects for redevelopment.

Arts in Motion: For The Duration
Tiresome Serbian performance artist Marina Abramovic was pushing her latest work, named Balkan Erotic Epic, running 4 hours across 13 stages, in a Manchester venue. Sounds like she's 80 this year, so that's a sign.

Late Night w/Seth Meyers
Alexander Skarsgard was fairly game, and Liam Neeson affably sent up his career (again).

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Ep 5 “Series Acclimation Mil” Season 1

Finally DS9 gets love and recognition, the cameos and that big reveal.

The Listening Post
Why & How the Epstein files take attention away from genocide in Gaza.

Global Public Square
Twice as long on Iran than on Gaza, and even longer on how AI will help medicine (or rather, help the private firms making such a fitful job of providing it).

Late Night w/Seth Meyers
Kaley Cuoco has a Liam Neeson view of her career; James Acaster reduced Seth to covering his face with laughter. Nick Jonas has a new album, and John Early is working off Broadway with the great Wallace Shawn.

Knight Rider Ep 10 “Ring of Fire” Season 2

The Bottom Line
Steve Clemons talks to Sharif Abdel Kouddous about Trump's horrific and immoral proposals for the "new Gaza", then later to Trita Parsi about who's egging Trump on to try and squash Iran, regardless of the many obvious reasons it will backfire badly.
