30 years ago today, Twister was released upon us. Written by Michael Crichton (and Anne-Marie Martin), directed by Jan de Bont after Speed. This was a powerhouse disaster film. One of my personal favorites. #twister #90smovies #michaelcrichton #30years

44 years ago today, Duran Duran released their sophomore album, Rio. The title track, Rio along with Hungry Like the Wolf became the mainstays of the 1980s and solidifying Duran Duran's sound. Also, an iconic album cover art. #80smusic #duranduran #HungryLikeTheWolf

I've done it. I bought a big brown binder and got some Pokémon cards to start. 2026 has become my return to Pokémon with playing Sword and now, getting my set of cards. 🤭 #pokemon #pokemoncards #bigbrownbinder

Watching #QuantumLeap thirty-five years after its premiere just feels like I missed out on this wonderful show. It came out in my birth year of 1989. As I continue Season 2, I'm connected to how well the writing in each episode stands out, especially being a time travel slice of life series. Seeing Sam solve these situational scenarios is very comforting to me. Like I haven't seen a show like this ever. I'm damn near close to saying that this is becoming a favorite of mine. It fills me with joy.

It's kind of insane that a television series from 1985, forty years ago, #TheEqualizer has 2 concurrent adaptations of the property, one in a film series starring Denzel Washington and the other a television show starring Queen Latifah. I wasn't expecting a resurgence like this. What other properties is like this? Maybe Fantasy Island for a brief period with that film and television series. That's all I can think of.

The funny thing about mentioning Donald P. Bellisario's shows last month is that I started to watch #QuantumLeap for the first time. I'm currently in Season 2. I like it so far. The chemistry between Sam and Al is on point, and the writing for each episode is so great. It's probably the best television writing I've seen in recent years. It's turning to become a new favorite for me. I love time travel, and this fits into my wheelhouse very well thus far.

I realize that I have Donald P. Bellisario's first 3 television series with #MagnumPI, Tales of the Gold Monkey, and #Airwolf on DVD. I'm thinking of watching Magnum P.I. and Airwolf. It'll be neat to see how things aired on #CBS back in the 80s. I need some 80s television in my rotation. ✨️
