This is a very thoughtful response. Thank you!

I really enjoyed S2 of this show. It was light and fun; a palate cleanser and family-friendly time investment. Is it Emmy-worthy? No. Is it just a thoughtless good time? Yes. And despite knowing that the Robinsons are going to make it out of every situation relatively unscathed, it occasionally gets my heart pumping.

Don’t know why this had to turn ad hominem, but 1) yes, I prefer comfort, 2) with most movies of that ilk a larger screen doesn’t improve the experience in any perceptible way, and 3) fuck you.

Real talk - the Asian market would never allow a black and Asian love story, so I’m sure that’s a large component of why they nixed that. Remember, the Disney overlords answer to the Chinese market more than they answer to ours.

Watch big-budget action movies—think Thor or The Day After Tomorrow—in a theater, ideally on opening night right around the time the local high school gets out.

Are you American? (For context, I am.) As I understand it from reading a few articles, the laws about what you can and can’t say (apparently the UK’s laws are such that you’re entitled to free speech as long as it doesn’t criticize another person’s “dignity” or challenge their right to exist - i might be botching the…

Right. Then you are not the type of person I’m talking about.

Who?

What happened to the boycott that had them all saying they wouldn’t attend a debate at LMU? Resolved?

Throwing the baby out with the bathwater, are we? After all, in order to care about the murder at all, you have to care about the human murdered, even if another human murdered them?

Right, but I’m talking about the actions people take. So like someone going to a (hypothetical) rally to end animal torture but not showing up for a #blacklivesmatter walk because to them one of those activities literally matters more than the other.

I hear what you’re saying, but that to me just sounds like you haven’t encountered the kind of people I’m talking about. IDK where you live, but I live in LA and it’s SUPER HIP for people to LOUDLY talk about hating humans and preferring animals. Which, maybe I am taking thattoo literally, but I’m more raging about…

Honestly, I’m much more disturbed by people who care more about animals than they do other human beings.

Tell me more about Caroline Flack because I watch Love Island UK as an American and I feel I’m missing a lot of context around who she is. I understand she was a news anchor? Is she famous because she’s had a tumultuous love life? Also, you’re absolutely right - 17 and 31 is inappropriate at best, predatory at worst.

Idk that the Chinese market would take very well to a Chinese character digging a black dude, but okay.

I think a lot of people don’t know how a writer’s room works.

What??? BOWIE???

“Drake thing”??? Say more!

(a black female character preferring a black man...what a time to be alive!)
