I beleive there was a similar problem when Charlize Theron was cast as the Evil Queen

I had the same reaction!

The big problem here is that Gadot is ridiculously gorgeous, so you need to find someone who can credibly claim the Fairest of Them All title.  Not sure who those candidates are.  Chalamet?

She’s great, I just don’t know if I can suspend my disbelief enough that I can accept that the mirror wouldn’t just keep telling her that she is the fairest of them all. I mean, who can they possibly cast where that would be in any way believable? 

The families in Malcolm In The Middle and The Middle weren’t middle class, they were working class families. Just because they live in a house don’t make them middle class.

His inheritance claim to the Buchanan Petroleum empire is threatened when Isabella Crovetti, a glamourous young Italian woman, flies in from Milan claiming to Buchanan Senior’s long-last bastard daughter from a fling he had on the Amalfi Coast back in 1968.

I’m guessing if they were conducting any sort of autopsy as part of the investigation it would be done in Oahu.

It probably doesn’t say anything good about society that I read this and thought “So, he didn’t, like, grope or molest anyone? Okay, not bad."

The super rich ARE very cheap, typically, so that part rings true to me.

I kind of love how over it Nicole is about Paula.  And I don’t even think it’s about Paula’s attitude but just how, like, preciously she has to be handled.  Paula is that friend of your kid’s who has an allergy to everything in the world and they can’t eat anything at your house but their parents send them over for a

“Is she allergic to fire?” was an amazing line, and I’m surprised it didn’t get a mention, but maybe the reviewer didn’t like that it made fun of Paula, Patron Saint of the White Lotus.

That’s what I really didn’t get...  It speaks volumes to me that Paula, a smart college student, would just assume Kai not only could pull it off but... would have or be able to find connections to fence the bracelets?  Wha?

The show highlights his criminal inexperience by showing a stack of money right next to the bracelets, which he ignored for said bracelets.

I really liked this episode but I really, really hated this narrative choice. Between the amount of visual security I’d imagine being installed at a resort like this and the level of discomfort Kai displayed while Paula was laying out her plan for him, it was pretty disappointing that the next time we see him he’s

Counterpoint: Harley works best when she’s the best part of an ensemble. Too much Harley risks Harley burnout.

Rachel isn’t gonna die. It’s gonna be someone else.

I don’t think that Olivia and Paula are lovers, just that Olivia has a thing for Paula.

Are we sure she isn’t playing Lara Lane-Kent?

Sasha Kalle will play Superman’s cousin, Kara Zor-El (a.k.a. Supergirl) in Andy Muschietti’s The Flash

It’s the same math used for Harrison Ford and Sean Connery.
