And yet they apparently managed to fuck even that up.

You are not alone. Not by a long (big) sho(r)t.
Others, too. I’ve got exactly zero judgy criticism for this young woman because for about six months when I was her age I thought of little else but basically doing just what she did.
[adopts old granny voice] I remember it well. It was the Late Afternoon of the Long Knives, a day that was thence and forevermore known as Bloody Thursday. The blood ... all the blood ... [old granny voice trails off as I stare vacantly into space, haunted by the horrors of the Shit I Have Seen]
I think they do this every month, actually. The items themselves rotate.

Hm. Well, I had a great mom. I was damned fortunate to get her, I was her caregiver during her last illness and grateful for the job, as bone-crushingly hard as it was, because it gave me more time with her, and I miss her desperately, even nine years after her death. She wasn’t perfect, but she tried her best, and I…
SERIOUSLY. I mean I know we’re all just too cool for school here but the derisive tone towards this wondrous feat of human ingenuity is .... silly. It’s just silly.
18 seasons and still goin’ strong.
Dude. I’d climb that like a tree.
Eh it was decent enough but I think the book is just far better suited to a series, especially one not aired on any of the big networks. It’ll almost certainly be easier to depict the stone-cold horrors of the fuckery that is Gilead, if nothing else.

That’s not an either/or thing, sweet pea. Try again.
Wow, you have it exactly wrong. That’s ... impressive, in a weird way.
Well, I didn’t - have a clue, that is - and I think I got the gist. Gifted surgeon (I’m guessing) loses career due to accident, goes on quest, meets Tilda Swinton, learns some secret magic sauce, becomes superhero - it’s an origin story. Zero Googling, zero former knowledge - how’d I do? (And now I kinda want to see…
Yeah - because they radically misunderstood the true source of the show’s appeal and marginalized her character. Nah, this is completely on the showrunner/producers/writers.
A black actress quit a popular (though struggling) TV show in its 3rd season and in which she was the lead ... to do other things? Really? Not because the writers have been marginalizing her and treating her character as expendable for quite some time now? You sure about that? Nah, I’m laying this *squarely* at the…
I had 36, going back to 2010. A handful were obvious spam, another handful from pages - but the rest (over 20) were from actual individuals, including more than a few potential clients. *sigh*
Nope, try as I might, still not mustering any National Treasure vibes.
Extra points for getting the quote-part right.
