What's On Tonight (Friday): ¡Eso es lo que Ella Dijo en Español!

    

La Oficina

Today's Top Pick is the series premiere of La Oficina, which is the latest iteration of The Office with this one coming from Mexico.  I didn't see a trailer with translated subtitles, but I still chuckled at it.  I think that's a good sign.  You can catch it on Amazon.

Elsewhere we the streaming premiere of Not Without Hope starring Zachary Levi and Josh Duhamel.  It's about four dumb asses who don't check the weather report before going out to fish.  Their boat gets turned over by a giant wave and then a bunch of people have to risk their lives to save these dumbasses. To add insult to injury Levi plays one of the people they have to save.  If you want to see a movie about a someone struggling to survive their boat sinking that also has "hope" in the title, go watch All Hope is Lost.  It's probably less "inspirational" than NWH but you get Redford which is a big step up from Levi.

And just a heads up, Netflix's Dynasty: The Murdochs is not a spin off of the 80's soap opera.  Oh Lord, how I wish it was.

🔔 La Oficina (Amazon, 3:01 AM) SERIES PREMIERE. 'The Mexican adaptation of the original BBC Studios format, The Office. Revolves around the regional office of Jabones Olimpo, located in Aguascalientes, where the employees will have to endure the headaches of working in a family company with Jerónimo Ponce III as their boss, the legitimate heir and regional manager of the soap empire, who is not qualified to run the company.'
