A fabulous performance by #DrumTAO at #CarolinaTheatreDurham! TAO blends traditional Japanese #Taiko drums with modern music, acrobatic dance routines, and comedy to create a spectacular show! We've seen them several times and they are always amazing! πŸ₯

A great night of unapologetic and outspoken social commentary filled with laughs from comedian #MargaretCho on her #Choligarchy tour. We're long-time fans and it was great to see this live show at #CarolinaTheatreDurham.

We bought this amazing painting of Mr Spock by our friend and talented artist #WarrenMontgomery at wlcomics.com. Warren perfectly captured the logical Vulcan and I love the textures and blend of colors and the print incorporates the #StarTrek logo! We love it! Live Long and Prosper πŸ––

HOW IT STARTED/HOW IT'S GOING:

In 1989, TREKKER #1 came out. Thirty-nine years later, thanks to the support of Mercy's many loyal readers, I still get to continue the story that I planned out all those years ago. From bounty hunter to galactic freedom fighter. Thank you all! TrekkerKickstarter.com

#TheHotSpot is a quirky Japanese comedy on #Netflix. A slice of life series about friends who learn a co-worker is an alien with "amazing" powers like bending coins or retrieving volleyballs from the gym ceiling or putting screen protectors on phones without air bubbles. Very fun! πŸ—»

Me too! Nigel Bruce is terrific, but once I met the Watson in the stories, that's the Watson I always wanted going forward. Coincidentally, Ruth and I recently researched the Sherlock Hound series by Hayao Miyazaki and learned they briefly considered calling Moriarty's two henchmen Nigel and Bruce.

Nice! Ruth and I rewatched all of the Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes movies last year. Watching them as a kid with my father was my introduction to the character and then I went to the local library and found the original stories. πŸ”Ž

Terrific to see the new #LupinTheThird movie "Immortal Bloodline" in US cinemas thanks to #GKIDS and #Cinemark. Seeing Lupin, Jigen, Goemon, Fujiko, and Zenigata on the big screen is always a treat. #LupinThe3rd #LupinTheIIIrd #LupinIII

Happy New Year! 2026 started great at #GoodnightsComedyClub where we celebrated the new year with hilarious comedian #AlonzoBodden! His comedy is smart and clever and we're fans from "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" and it was very cool that he spent time chatting with fans after the show!

We love A Sherlock Carol. We wish we could find a nearby production every year, but we aren't usually that lucky. However, we did get to see two different productions of it this year. Great fun just as you say. πŸ”Ž
