Noise at a lake. Authority is the punchline. Not the one to choose.

The review

A camp is one of the last places a child practices being useful away from home: a fire, a younger camper, a rule that keeps people off the rocks. Bunk'd knows the setting and spends it on pranks and counselors who cannot be trusted with a canoe. It is mild. Mild is not the same as good.

If the children want camp, read them a chapter or tell them about a real one. This does not have to be the picture.

Journal

Keep Bunk'd in the record.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 30. Yours can differ.

The glance

Industry and Household and Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Consider this

Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks

41 instead of 30

Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks is still a kids show, and it scores 41 instead of 30. What you gain is household: He keeps them.

The eight

3
Industry
Camp is a job for the counselors. The show thinks the job is a costume.
3
Household
Parents are offscreen. The cabin is a sleepover that never ends.
2
Piety
Nothing is treated as worth keeping still for.
3
Courage
Pranks stand in for nerve.
3
Republic
A camp could be a small commons. This one is a set.
4
Temperance
Mean is usually corrected by the tag. The middle of the episode enjoyed it.
3
Truth
The lesson is announced. The prank was the point.
3
Stewardship
Nothing is handed on except a catchphrase.

Dead to Me

Grief is real. The show's answer is a conspiracy and a laugh.

The review

Christina Applegate plays a woman whose husband is dead and whose anger is understandable. That performance is the only reason a serious person might press play. The series then decides the killer next door is the soulmate, and that hiding a death is the joke that binds them. Friendship is a real good. This is not what friendship is for.

Leave it. If you want a story about a widow who is allowed to be angry, you do not need one that rewards the lie.
