I swear by TikTok and its endless scrolling to put me to sleep, and particularly, Torontonian Boman Martinez-Reid's videos. The 20-year-old, inspired by shows like Real Housewives, has been putting up his own reality TV skits where he deals with what he calls "daily disrespect". Watch his mom diss his sweatpants, his best friend cough on him and the time he was left to "read" for seven minutes and thus forced to "disintegrate" on a molecular level.

People are raving about Paatal Lok as if the web series will do for Indian shows what 16-year-old Sachin Tendulkar did to cricket when he debuted for the country.
The story of the nine-episode show revolves around a suburban Delhi cop who's out to prove to the world that he isn't the numbskull everyone thinks he is. But is the execution as flawless as the Master Blaster's on-drives were? Don't put your money on it. Is it worth a watch?
Yes, you can bet on that.
