The Automat. A documentary about the Hart and Hardart restaurants. I never ate at one, but still found the history to be fascinating. If you're from NY or Philly and ever went to an Automat you might enjoy it! Mel Brooks, Carl Reiner, Elliot Gould, Colin Powell, and RBG are among the interviewees.

I watched it on TCM, but I think it's available on Max.

Ha! I used "automats" many times in Japan but did not realize that it's called "automats" in English.
As for "what are you watching," these days mostly YouTube, stuff produced in mainland China. Some of the animation series are really, really good. But I also watch live action "vertical screen" series that's really, really bad -- "vertical screen" because they were made for consumption on smartphones in portrait orientation, "series" because they were originally made available in tiny episodes (a few minute per episode; take hundred or hundreds of episodes to finish one story arc), and "really, really bad" (as in bad script, bad acting, bad direction, low production quality, etc.) -- but just like junk food, you know it's bad yet you still consume a lot of it anyway.

I’m watching YouTube vids almost exclusively. Cooking, gardening, history, furniture restoration, Antiques Roadshow, RVs, Cleveland, construction, etc. I’ve subscribed to about 40 channels now and there are new vids every day.
Sharon likes a lot of the made for streaming movies and series but I find most of them unwatchable.

The Bear season 3. Such an amazing series!

Dark Winds. I'm not watching it, but noticed that it's getting rave reviews and wanted to pass it along. It's a crime thriller.
