I was wondering what happened to Willow and Xander in yesterday's recap. 
  Looks like they're back.  :-)

This is a two day catch-up.


I watched:


Watson - "Patient Question Mark" - I didn't give this episode of House 
my full attention, but as usual House had his team go into the patient's 
house to investigate and find out the real truth so they could provide 
medical care.


Mayfair Witches - "The Innocents" - I think this might have been the 
season finale.  And yep, they basically retconned Lasher from murderer 
to misunderstood nice guy.


Matlock - "Friends" - Episode 9 from January.  Almost pure background 
noise.  It didn't help that I started this episode in January, then just 
picked up where I left off.


Daredevil: Born Again (Disney+) - "Heaven's Half Hour" and "Optics" - 
The first two episodes of the new season.  I don't have much to say 
about it, especially without spoilers.
