The New York Times set up a primal scream hotline for moms. Or you can visit screamintothevoid.com to type away your frustrations.

What We’re Watching: ZEP “Zoey’s Extraordinary Reckoning” and Veronica Mars “Hi, Infidelity”2/16/2021
On our entertainment-themed Round 2 this week, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist takes on racism in the workplace in a thoughtful, well-done episode. Next: The show will be on hiatus until March 28.
In Neptune, Veronica faces (false) accusations of cheating and Keith succumbs to the temptation of a relationship with his married former client, Harmony. And of course, the rapist is still at large. Next: Season 3, episode 7, "Of Vice and Men," and the Veronica Mars Investigations discussion of episodes 5, 6, and 7.
We take a cue from writer Emma Beddington at the Guardian and provide performance reviews for our households, including family members and other important employees (like the dishwasher and the Internet service).

When our own problems seem overwhelming, it's very tempting to want to swap them for someone else's. But our advice in this situation is to be careful what you wish for.
With a return to normalcy on the horizon (right? maybe?), we wonder about some of the skills and habits that have atrophied over these many months of lockdown. Are they gone forever?
On Zoey, it turns out that Zoey's extraordinary trip does not mean that Zoey took Terri's advice to go on vacation. Nope, she goes on a drug trip with her neighbor Aidan and her CEO, Danny Michael Davis. This was not what we had in mind. Mentioned: Broadway actor Chip Zien. Yes, he can still sing! Next up, "Zoey's Extraordinary Reckoning."
On Veronica, we got a welcome return to the season-one style "case of the week" episode. We didn't appreciate Veronica being so quick to sell Weevil out, however. Next: "Hi, Infidelity." |
