I watched:


Parish (AMC) Episode two of this Giancarlo Esposito crime series.  This 
one mainly dealt with the fallout from the heist in the pilot not going 
as planned.


Fallout (Amazon Prime) New series based on a video game about survivors 
in a post-apocalyptic America.  The premier mostly focuses on a group of 
survivors living in a massive underground bunker that is based on a sort 
of stylized futuristic 60s vibe.  While on the surface it's more of a 
Mad Max vibe, although not as bad since some of civilization has 
survived.  From what I gather the two sides are vaguely aware of each 
other's existence although no real interaction.  Due to spoilerish 
things happening a naive young woman leaves the bunker to go on a quest. 
  I guess the first episode was OK.


The Birds (blu-ray) 1963 movie directed by Alfred Hitchcock about a 
small town being terrorized by birds that keep attacking for no reason. 
I could have sworn this movie was in black and white and was shocked 
when it was in color. My best guess is the last time I watched it was 
maybe 40 or so years ago on a black and white TV.  Either that or I just 
flat out forgot it was in color.  Regardless, the movie holds up well 
enough.  I just have one more Hitchcock movie to go, then I think I will 
have watched all the ones I want to watch.
