Check the disc for any fingerprints or dust. If you have an air can around use open the tray of your DVD player and blow it out a few seconds. Could also be your DVD player is getting worn out too. Have family or friends try out the disc and if it works ok in their player's then you know it's your player that has issues.

NASCAR news
Kevin Harvick celebrated his 50th cup series win yesterday which puts him at #12 on the wins list sharing the spot with Ned Jarret and Junior Johnson. Alex Bowman finished 2nd and was a strong contender for the win. He also signed a 1 year extension with Hendrick Motorsports https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2020/05/16/alex-bowman-hendrick-motorsports-nascar-contract-extension-free-agency/ Rounding out the top 5 was Kurt Busch, Chase Elliot and Denny Hamlin. Matt Kenseth finished 10th in his first race since November 2018. Ryan Newman finished 15th Rookies Tyler Reddick finished 7th and John Hunter Nemechek finished 9th. I think if Jimmie Johnson didn't wreck he would have won the race if not finished in the top 3. Hopefully he does well Wednesday night. That race will air on FS1 at 7:30pm est.

The last 24 hours
I have no idea, it was growing between the cracks of the concrete where it meets with the porch and since we had a dry week till Friday the plants were mostly dead since I guess they bloomed already. I can say they were thin stalked with thin leaves. Will have to take a picture of them if they come back this year.

Forgot to tell this funny thing that happened yesterday... So I'm trimming weeds at me dad's yesterday. There's these odd plants around his front porch and when I clipped them I got showered in seeds. It seems when the plants are ready to spread their seed they shoot them out when they get disturbed as I tapped the next one with my foot and seeds shot out of the plant. I can't say "I've never been attacked by a plant" anymore . Just glad I had my safety glasses on.

I don't see why not if the disc is defective. At the time I had gotten 3 seasons of DoH as a birthday gift so by the time I got around to watching the season I had with the defective disc about 6+ months passed from the date it was purchased. I couldn't find the email but I think I contacted wb shop, on their website they have a 'contact us' in the customer service menu.

Feels like the Hatfield's and McCoy's around here so I bought the doorbell camera. I'm a private person but knowing this is up and I can check that the wife gets home safe if I'm not here makes me feel a lot better. Wish we would have bought this sooner.

Contact Warner Brothers, they replaced my season set that had a defective disc for free. I'll search my email to see if I still have the correspondence and give you the department to contact.

Yeah that's why it's one of the 1980's series I can re-watch again and again like Dukes of Hazzard especially when I need a good laugh.

Coronavirus
Then there's the lost business from the ones that refuse to wear a mask in a business that mandates it and "won't ever shop there again" . I personally don't have a problem with wearing a mask in a business especially if it makes the employees feel better. The comic shop I go to is asking for the customers to wear masks while inside the shop and if the customers don't want to they are offering curbside pickup.

Would have been awesome if he would have made it to 100. Monday night MeTV aired an Andy Griffith episode with him playing Briscoe Darling jr.

Coronavirus
Let's try this again since chrome crashed while I was typing... Gas is back up to $2 here already. Figures since the governor is allowing non essential businesses to open back up this week. Restaurants will be allowed to open outdoor dining areas this week and indoor dining next week as long as they follow the new guidelines. Though I don't know how the small diners will be able to as they don't have the space. For instance the one I frequent would have to remove all the tables in the middle and block off half the booths and counter stools. That would only leave them 18 guests if they maximize booth seating. Gonna be a tough year for small family owned diners and restaurants.

Coronavirus
Some of Ohio's conspiracy theorists were busy spreading their theory's this weekend on a fishing/hunting forum I frequent. Some of the stuff I read on there , some of them need some tinfoil hats. Don't believe everything you read or see on the internet about coronavirus especially if it's not from a medical professional.

Think Daisy's car makes another appearance in season 4 episode Goodbye General Lee. If it's not the same one they went and bought another one the same color.

Uncle Jesse's episode reviews
I didn't like this episode mainly for 'relatives hooking up' stereotype of southern people even though we find out later on in the episode that he wasn't any relation. I also always wondered if they left the Jag stock or Hollywooded it and shoved a Chevy small block in it for reliability like they do with most older foreign sports cars in movies these days. I read an article this morning about the Ford vs Ferrari movie and they used Chevy LS engines in the production cars but supposedly recorded actual racing cars engine noise for use in the movie.
