The legendary Muhammed Ali and Joe Frazier on the Dick Cavett show at the same time. It was filmed a couple of weeks before their 2nd fight in 1974 and both of the great men are on top form. The verbal jousting between them is brilliant but Ali wins the contest on points.

Definitely worth a watch for anyone who's a fan of boxing, I've provided the YouTube link and although the picture for the video is in black & white I can confirm it is actually in colour, that great colour you get from tv of this era.

An easy 5/5 and I'll actually give it an extra * because Ali does the shuffle when he and Joe are goading each other. Boy was Ali light on his feet and fast for a heavyweight.

Just a trailer, gonna search for the full documentary.

Actor Vincent Schiavelli returns to his grandparents sicilian village.
As he was a pipe smoker there are pipes to be seen, Sicily is also a very fascinating place, at least to me.

I've watched a few of the new Unsolved Mysteries on Netflix. Not much different than the original with Robert Stack. I'll rate it 3/5. Some cases are more interesting than others. I'll watch more episodes if I can't find anything else to watch.

The episode were a guy crash through the roof of the Belvedere Hotel in Baltimore is an interesting case.

The Fatman starring Mel Gibson as Chris Cringle.

A 12 year old rich kid who receives a lump of coal for Christmas hires a hit man to kill Santa Claus. I rate it 3/5.
 
Loved the Queen's Gambit, but then I've always had a thing for sexy smart redheads. 5/5

Started watching Shitts Creek last night. Funny, but I felt like I lost braincells on how stupid the humor is. I think whomever created it, also does that show, Curb Your Enthusiasm... except the jokes don't make me want to slam a knife into the back of my throat as much. 2/5.
