When he did that and then the follow up of “A man is grateful” I lost it.

Amusingly the only inaccuracy I saw was in the photo on Kwong’s desk. The two girls at Six Flags in New Jersey, both those rollercoasters were constructed after 2003.

This and the inquisitors being completely stopped by the universes flimsiest balcony being pulled down in front of them really had me in stitches. Some extremely stupid TV, really took me out of it. I’m hoping for some better quality over the rest of the series but I have a bad feeling I’ll be disappointed.

Wealthy old white man harassing minimum wage workers? Truly the wonders never cease. He sure showed those baristas. Fucking dumbass.

Considering the hilarious moral outrage so many of your articles give off, you guys sure are giving a lot of press to Marky Mark and Mel Gibson’s love child.

That is absolutely NOT all that she has done. Also, frankly, considering the scare tactics she has quoted in her little essays I’d say she actually is phobic of trans people. She’s irrationally afraid that trans women exist to erase cis women and sexually assault them in bathrooms. You also seem to think that…

I’m currently operating under the assumption that we’ll wind up getting the opening scene from the books somewhere in the show as back story. I actually don’t think it would be good as an opening for the show, personally.

Having read them all I’d say read 1-6, read a summary of 7-10, then read the rest. I think it’s important to read the first book knowing that Jordan was *intending* to do a retelling of Fellowship of the Ring with a different framing. He wanted to couch the intro to his world in something comfortable. The story goes…

I’m under the impression that the first season at least is going to be pretty Moiraine-centric. I’m pretty fine with that since she’s basically the only person who knows what’s going on at all.

I’m reasonably certain that I did not see Justified on that list, and thus the list is completely invalid. Also get GoT out of the fucking top 10.

My immense enjoyment of Aisling Bea’s comedy still can’t make me interested in this unfortunately.

All the Metro North tracks coming out of Grand Central go northward, so no it doesn’t work that way. Although we could just multiverse the explanation away.

I mean the dad also did have a kid with a teenager. 

Having just watched it, he’s in it for one scene and says nothing of value. It’s legitimately not worth mentioning in a review, the whole scene is a throwaway.

B feels generous for this episode, though I have to give props to LaLa Ri for somehow winning an episode where there isn’t a winner. She both looked amazing and had the best video/song by a mile.

I don’t know if it’s Olivia being “generic” more so than it is her being very new to drag and not having a strong identity. Calling someone who has done drag for barely a year and one pageant a “pageant queen” is a stretch. It does feel a little sore for Denali to go home this episode, because Olivia did an…

Yeah I don’t think I’d ever recommend it or describe it as good but I actually enjoyed it. Probably aided by the fact that I was young and had more recently read both Haunting of Hill House and Hell House.

A cursory google says it takes about 20-30 minutes to take effect in most people.

It’s kind of a weakness in the show vs the book that they feel the need to always bring Tic into other character’s stories. It’s been a while since I read the book but I remember him being completely absent from a few of the stories or at a minimum barely being there at all. It feels like they don’t trust the viewers…

That whole sequence of walking through the streets while live was a full blown horror movie. I was super uncomfortable the whole time, even more so than I was during her confrontation with Terry and Kwame. I kind of understand how Bella turned on Kwame like that (side effect of the echo chamber Kwame was talking…
