In which we, the two most qualified people you can imagine to be tackling such a subject, review YouTube gamer videos for Minecraft and Mario Odyssey and the concept of gamer videos in general. We take a minute to remember that our hearts truly lie in the world of good, old fashioned movies as Deborah reviews The Lego Movie 2 and Katie gives her take on Will Smith’s look for Disney’s upcoming live action Aladdin.

All this and more on this episode of It’s My Screen Time Too.

It’s our first foray into so-called family programming as we watch A Little Help with Carol Burnett. Is comic legend, Carol Burnett, enough to save this advice show starring a panel of pint sized experts? How about said pint sized experts - adorable or exploited? And most importantly, where can we score Carol’s collection of tasteful scarves and cashmere sweatshirts?
