You know the best part about doing the early Saturday Watchalong? I have to walk the dog sooooooooooo early that no one else is on the street and I don’t have to wear a mask. Such a treat.
Get your coffee, get your pancakes, get your cozy blanket, and snuggle up to watch Bobby Jasoos with all of us! It’s on Netflix, it’s pretty short, and it is very happy.
In a little bit at 7:30am, I will put up an “and PLAY” comment to start us all off, and then you can keep commenting along with me until we finish the film.

I completely missed this until Filmikudhi pointed it out, but the whole first bit of the movie is during Ramadan. Which is why everyone is eating great food in the middle of the night. And then this particular song was celebrating Eid, because we saw them all say Eid Mubarak. And now people don’t have to be grumpy and hungry all day.
