I felt like that line to her was genuine. If anything, I think his original plan was to try to fix things out of desperation, but he accidentally let it become real.

One of the ways this show really shines is the catty putdowns they toss off about normal people. First episode was the “ludicrously capacious handbag” and this one was about Willa’s mom having too much food on her plate: “Does she know she can go back?” If you’ve hung around people like this the tone of the writing is…

Matthew Macfadyen keeps getting me with his sincere line readings whenever Tom stops trying to climb the ladder and just be a human being with Shiv, hoping she’ll reciprocate. Tonight it was, “Don’t do that. You’ll regret it. Can you just allow me to show you kindness?” Or something to that effect. He was so genuine.…

Give the Emmy to whoever managed to create a perfectly ambiguous line that could easily be read as an underline or a cross-out.

I still find her to be the weakest member of the cast (tied with Jessie) and her character doesn’t seem that well-integrated into plots. They’re both just kind of boring characters. I thought Leighton Meester recurring as Jessie’s ex-girlfriend would make him better as she was great in Single Parents but she was a…

Grogu needs a “this is the way” button.

I think Dani and Jamie were set up as “Aces” or really good, but Zava is more like a Messi level type player.

He was more of an up and coming star. Came in the summer transfer window, immediately got injured. and nobody had really seen him play. He’s an ace, for sure, but while Jamie and Dani are aces, Zava was a wild card.

I’m really enjoying Bo Katan’s greater focus in this season. The show is called “The Mandalorian,” not “Din Djarin.” No reason they can’t switch up who the Mandalorian is from time to time.

If memory serves, didn’t the psychic just say “you will become a mother” rather than “you will become pregnant and have a baby yourself,” right?

Roy’s revenge story killed me. I loved how the show just let it go on and on. 

I really don’t understand how HIMYF is so bland and bad. The three main things I’ve kind of settled on are that the initial concept was bad (choosing to make the majority of characters not be friends before the show), there are too many main characters (either Ellen or Charlie could be dropped - the show didn’t need…

Do you not understand what a pre-air review is?

That’s a weird thing to say to a pop culture critic. Just don’t read it?

Barney was recently on How I Met Your Dad and it was immediately the funniest that show has ever been. They had a pretty funny gag where he gets shocked every time he says something disgusting. Which seems like a tired joke, but like most jokes on these shows, it's not the writing so much as the delivery. 

Concert: sing along. It’s encouraged, unless it’s intended to be a specially quiet, intimate song (and even you can, as long as it’s not making it hard for others to hear the singer).

HAVING MOST OF A THEATER JOIN IN THE SINGING OF A POPULAR SONG COULD BE A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE. NEVERTHELESS, I CAN SEE HOW THE CAST AND SOME/MANY/MOST AUDIENCE MEMBERS, HAVING PAID TO HEAR PROFESSIONALS, MIGHT NOT APPRECIATE IT. THE SOLUTION IS OBVIOUS: LEAN IN. ADVERTISE PERFORMANCES WHERE JOINING IN IS ALLOWED AND…

Concerts, shows, even movies these days are a “no thanks” for me. People post-Pandemic are getting awful. If this is the ‘new normal’, no thanks. I’m there for the show, not the side-show.
