Meanwhile the real star of the ArrowVerse, Caity Lotz, is on the picket line

On the one hand the show doesn’t go quite as hard on the Televangelist/Megachurch scene as it could, on the other hand I think it’s interesting that even without showing the Gemstones being overtly hateful/bigoted or chud-like, like they’re still pretty fucked up. 

myopic

-Gave us Labor Day
-Social Security
-better healthcare
-civil rights movement
-enforced child labor laws
-made sure to fix work days to 8 hours
-made sure to give people options to work at home instead of laboring for several hours in still CLEARLY not cured Pandemic.

Union rep and organizer here, but not in entertainment. Our educational system is so weak on union history that it’s possible for decent people to get confused as to why strikes (and the threat of strikes) are so essential. I’ve been on a four week strike for my union, and have worked six strikes. There reliably are…

something something failed this city

This feels especially egregious given that his current show is about pro wrestling, which is notoriously anti-labor.

Actor appears in public, places foot directly in mouth.

It seems like what he finds myopic is that actors can’t promote their new shows / seasons while the strike goes on, thus increasing the chances they will get cancelled and actors / crew will lose their jobs once the strike ends. But he did call the strike as a whole a reductive negotiating tactic without offering any…

I look forward to him outlining what the alternative was other than letting studios own your image forever while keeping your residuals to themselves. Because it’s not like there weren’t months of negotiations and the studios basically saying “nope.”

This site currently employs about three people with a budget of whatever they found under the couch, it’s a miracle we have any episode-by-episode coverage of anything anymore.

Televangelists are a plague—the 9th plague—for how they fleece people of money and provide false hope, but dangit, this show has been a hit for me since Season 1. Probably because each character is so flawed. And specifically in the case of the Gemstone children, just horrible people.

As much as I enjoyed last night’s…

Kelvin and Keefe kissed and that’s all I fucking needed. Just thank fucking god, dude.

A good arc for Kelvin (and hilarious for the show) would be to transition him to a new “gay outreach” role rather than youth - god, I’m chuckling at the implications of it already.

Yeah, Justified: City Primeval is right there.

It seems like Marvel once again just took the name from one of their crossover comics just to get people excited and then just...meh.

This show was a pretty convoluted and sloppily written mess and nothing close to the paranoid spy thriller they tried to market it as. It felt cobbled together and all the rewrites an reshoots really showed. Gravik’s plans never made any sense because his actual motivations seemed to change from episode to episode. A…

Honestly, I think we needed a mention or a shot of G’iah and Fury doing a mind-meld-xerox face copy or whatever to explain the end monologues. Then we could be like, “Oh Fury really does feel that way because G’iah scanned him, real Fury just would never say that shit out loud.”

Goddamnit. I’ve defended this show, I thought it was better than every critic thought because somehow I KNEW BETTER. Fuck this finale was terrible.

I’ve liked everything MCU has done, even stuff people hated like Dark World. Now those were varying degrees of like, but I still liked them. Secret Invasion is a first for me. It’s not good. By any means. It’s incredibly bland and dull. It keeps saying its a “spy thriller” yet displays none of the characteristics to…

Even by MCU standards this was ass. A badly written made-for-tv movie that got chopped up and slightly padded out to stretch it just long enough to get 2 months of subs.

Give me a 3 minute compilation of all of Olivia Coleman’s lines and I’ll happily forget I ever watched the rest of this snooze-fest.
