 HOT ON TV 

Queens (USA, Syndicated) starring Eve J. Cooper a.k.a. Eve (Brianna), Brandy Norwood a.k.a. Brandy (Naomi), Naturi Naughton (Jill), and Nadine Velazquez (Valeria) is a new and compelling drama series about the lives of a group of has-been female rappers that get another life-changing opportunity to bounce back onto the music industry scene beginning with a collaborative performance at a major awards ceremony with a trendier younger rapper. 

The portrayals by the actresses mentioned above are pretty darn good such that I continuously get lost in the moment, forgetting that it's all fictional. #PrettyDarnGood

I am interested to find out how the story will pan out (of course), though I don't foresee a prolonged stay for the show on our schedules. #ICouldBeWrong

American Horror Stories (USA, FX on Hulu) is a fresh and somewhat addictive horror anthology series that made for worthwhile Halloween season binge-watching sessions this year. 

Based on American Horror Story (USA, FX), this series mesmerizes viewers with episodes of up to an hour in length, each of horror-themed stories that are generally intriguing. 

The production (technical) was/seemed/looked flawless. I do not doubt that Hollywood's awards season (Emmys, Globes, and other critics) will dare pass on mentioning the series. 

Otherwise, it's one of those to watch when nothing else is on. 

Yep, it belongs in that pile. 

The re-imagining of Chucky (USA, Syndicated) has to be one of the highlights of this (10th) Enzer's World (E.W.) Year. 

This new series succeeds at #totally engrossing viewers with an enchanting story-line fronted by Zackary Arthur as Jake Wheeler, a teenager who purchases a doll (Chucky, voiced by Brad Dourif) that comes to life and prompts him to homicidal acts, in a very made-for-television and entertaining way. #NotOverlyCreepy

Never in a million years would I have expected a re-imagination of Chucky on television. 

But hey...it happened. 

Thank goodness the show is unco memorable, at least. 

Tamron Hall (USA, Syndicated) is a talk show that is of interest, these days. The series, like any other daytime talk show, features celebrity guests and relevant conversations that are a perfect fit for daytime television. #TotallyRefreshing 

HOTTER:

Though You (USA, Netflix)'s third season began on a low note (episode 1), the rest of the season did justice to writing for television,  once again. 

Luckily, I watched the first episode until the end, because if I hadn't, I would've missed out on another one of Joe Goldberg (played by Penn Badgley)'s 'epic' moments in the history of the show's three seasons. #LOL

I am not sure if I should spoil it for those that haven't watched the latest season yet or not...

How is it even possible that a series can be that captivating for three whole consecutive seasons? 

Only time will tell if the team behind the show will lose its vigor. 

#ICouldGoOnAllDay #ISwear

The final season of Dear White People (USA, Netflix) took an unexpected turn (well, the word was out about this new direction beforehand) by turning the piquing series into a perfectly mellow musical. The futuristic primal setting, the highlights of the character's final year of college, the writers' sensitivity to current social issues, and the selection of 90's hit songs (for the musical aspect) all made for a distinctive final season, only (possibly) comparable to the unforgettable first season. 

#HatsOffToYou #Totally

American Horror Story returned for its tenth season (Double Feature) in July with a so-so story (split into two). 

I have come to expect that (so-so seasons) from the writers of the show, who out of ten seasons, have only gotten it #totally right with 1984 and Coven. #MaybeNextTime

The GMA Dove Awards 2021 (USA, TBN) ceremony took place in Nashville (once again) and featured a plethora of Christian music artists from diverse sets of Christian music sub-genres. The telecast was close to spectacular, without straying from its biblical mandate, and highlighted Christian artists' superior live performance abilities. #TotallyUplifted

WEB TV:

The 2020 and 2021 Mr. Gay World (South Africa, YouTube) contests were held virtually this past October. 

Several candidates (they call them delegates) competed for both titles in a well-produced online comp that should become a highlight on the LGBTI+ calendar, alongside or second to Global Pride Events. #CheckItOutSometime

The Hollywood Critics Association (HCA) Television Awards 2021 (USA, YouTube) also took place virtually, providing not only an entertaining production but an impressive crop of winners. 

I am #totally looking forward to the next ceremony. 

The Lady Gaga celebrates Love For Sale (USA, Online) event is also something to check out on the inter-webs soon, before its old news, #LOL.

A.I. UPDATE:

Uhmm, I haven't read or noticed anything about the upcoming 20th season of American Idol (USA, Syndicated), but I'm sure there's something special 'brewing' in those production rooms, (well, hopefully). 

#EnzerLovesIdol

E.W. GLOBAL:

The only thing easy to watch at the moment is the third season of Love Island (Australia, Nine Network). 

Yep, they finally turned me into an avid fan too, and I don't think that's ever gonna change. 

I don't know why the show is so refreshingly entertaining when all that the producers did was use the same original (Love Island) format with the only difference being the Australian cast. 

Mmm, it must be the Australian cast then.

THROWBACK:

Young & Hungry (USA), starring Emily Osment as Gabi, a young chef that falls for her rich, successful, and young eligible bachelor boss, is a sitcom worth binge-watching soon. 

All episodes of the five seasons are equally good, contain great humor, and a good-looking young cast. 

The show would make for a great viewing option this holiday season. 

#TotallyBingeworthy

DAILY INSPIRATION

People usually associate a sense of unbounded presence with epiphanies in life – being present at a birthing or a death. People lose themselves in romantic interludes, nature, or the presence of heart-wrenching beauty. Those fleeting moments resonate with the intense experience of presence. Yet peak experiences are only portals to our true nature – which is already occurring completely on its own. 

What is known as passionate presence is merely feeling this immaculate consciousness here and now, realizing or being fully cognizant of the ordinary miracle of just being. Such needs no attainment since it is already occurring. It requires no special circumstances, no life epiphanies, and no meritorious preparations. It is fully present in each moment of our lives. It stays fresh and innocent despite our sorrows, regrets, and whatever damage or failures we feel we have sustained. 

You may say, 'This makes absolute sense, but how do we get there?' 

The irony is that in the moment of saying, 'This makes sense...' this is awakened awareness itself. 

It is your awakened awareness that recognizes that true insight is best metabolized fresh.

MUSIC SPOT

I honestly can't name a single by Jason Derulo that isn't a chart-topper, a catchy tune, and/or a track on some random pop playlist. 

No other popular singer can effortlessly make auto-tune sound so marketably artless without losing that pop x-factor and reducing the sum of the Benjamins earned. 

He is...an unstoppable talent. #NowTheLadiesCanSwoon

FLICK PICK

The After (USA) Film Series has taken over the world!

The first two releases of the series (After; After We Collided) presented a story never seen on-screen before (from my recollections) with the third release titled After We Fell, taking the story to a whole new (unexpected) level. 

With an outstanding cast including, Josephine Langford (Tessa) and Hero Fiennes Tiffin (Hardin), fit for the story, it's unbelievable how the amateur Wattpad writer (originator) and the film adopters, all got it right. 

The cliffhangers can be a bit too much, but if the adopters continue churning out movies annually - they're forgiven. 

With that mentioned, the release of the next film (probably After Ever Happy) is an event to mark on my calendar. #YouShouldToo

*After We Collided is E.W. Global's Favorite Movie for the 9th E.W. Year, 2021. 

The Home Alone (USA) film series is another set of timeless motion picture releases. 

No holiday season is complete without a watch party featuring all of the Home Alone kids; the 2021 season is no exception.

The first three releases are the stand-outs and should be on your viewing priority list this Christmas.
