I binged the whole new season yesterday, pretty damn fun just like season 1. I’m baffled at times by the production values, they are near movie quality at times, like damn, that season finale had some money spent on it. My main complaint this season? The lens flare is getting out of hand, and we need more time with

The original Dr. Smith (Jonathan Harris) was really the only reason to watch the original series. Gary Oldman gave the role his typically excellent villain treatment in the 1998 film. But Parker Posey is brilliantly blazing a new trail.

I have great affection for this show. For one, I loved the original as a little boy and this, in some small way, let’s me be that young again. Also, family television isn’t normally my bag but it used to be the backbone of the medium and was like the audio/visual wallpaper of some many homes. It has been such a rarity

All I ask is for more time spent developing the Chicken as the three dimensional character and crew member she was meant to be.

Meh. I’m almost done and really enjoying it. It’s great world-building, science that isn’t dumb and FOR FUCKING ONCE protagonists who are just decent people who are intelligent and good at what they do and don’t have closets full of dark secrets.

It’s a great family show and there aren’t many of those anymore.  It’s got great, powerful female characters that kickass in many ways.  They’re all a bit perfect at times, but there are worse things.

- So....Berlanti said that KC!Superman was the same as Returns!Superman, but given this episode, it honestly feels more like Injustice!Superman if he never went off the deep end.

Look at this millionaire over here rubbing it in our faces with the brand name foods while the rest of us are making do with Frosted Toaster Pastries. 

For the same base price you could get more than 7,000 Pop Tarts.

“Oy, watch it, spaceman!”

You forgot to mention David Tennant as the animated pantsless anthropomorphic waterfowl. There’s definitely nobody sexualizing that.

I did not get that. I mean, I can lust after Tennant on Doctor Who, and on Broadchurch he had a fantastic grumpy charm, but his character on Jessica Jones was a terrifying psychopath and I never found him in the least attractive. He was just horrifying on every level. I mean, he was really good at being horrifying,

Willing to bet there are people who sexualize the actual Nilsen so, yeah, having him played by Tennant isn’t going to stop people from sexualizing Tennant.

The Charlie’s Angels movies were a vehicle to have Cameron Diaz dance in her underwear and expose Drew Barrymore’s cleavage in a fairly tame PG-13 setting.  It was basically pornography that your mom would take you to.  

One of the comment people here (Batista Thumbs Up) had a pretty good reply in the last Newswire post on this. Basically, nobody cares about Charlie’s Angels as a property - the only reason the 2000 movie was even as a successful as it was, was because two of the three leads were super-stars at the time (and this made

It was known as a ‘jiggle’ show, so you are absolutely correct.

Was Charlie’s Angels ever really for women though? I thought the whole point was that it was super male gazey. (This is a genuine question; I’m too young to have seen the show.)

Yes, although there are people complaining about all the Spider-man movies.

Being over 30 after spending years saying that is a weird thing, man.  

She shows a lot of strength being willing to face the hardship of going into Episode IX without Carrie.
