But people sometimes talk in makeup commercials! I want a girl who can make me believe I'm worth it

Please stop casting Cara Delevingne in anything beyond perfume ads

#Justice For Lord Peppercorn

The reviews make the show sound a lot worse than it is.

Clueless so ruthlessly skewers the era that when I first saw it I thought it was a 90's parody released in 2005. So I was, like, totally buggin

The thing about Amelia is she was genuinely brilliant on Private Practice, I adored her as both the brash, filterless problem child of the practice and the recovering addict struggling to figure out who she was. It's like moving back to Seattle scrambled her brain or the best parts of her died with Derek, she's…

I can't stop listening to Passionfruit, it's hypnotically chill

But he keeps up the act when he's alone, at times

I don't think these characters lack nuance at all, I was just contesting the idea that when the tables are turned it's no longer prestige television

Of course, but it's the only major story thread that seems really loose from the rest of the plot

I do think Abigail moving out would make a lot more sense as a plot device if there's a reason beyond 'my mom annoys me', so there could be something to the Ed stuff

Yeah, I can't speak to your experience but in mine… that feeling of being so helpless can warp your entire worldview and make you feel like you're always going to be a victim unless you find a way to tip the scales somehow. A gun is appealing when half the world is bigger and stronger than you and you no longer trust…

Perry is such a red herring it has to be Ed if it's someone we know, unless it's going to be one of those things where she finally gets a whiff of Nathan one day and *clashing cymbals*

Exactly. I wouldn't say I've questioned if he's all that bad, but I do find myself pitying him and almost hoping he can actually get better with therapy (far, FAR away from Celeste). I don't imagine it's a very nice place inside his head

That's an interesting explanation for it… I've seen people complaining that all the men on this show are assholes too, and I can't help but gesture wildly to the countless prestige dramas where every female character is limited to a broad sketch of Whore, Bitch or Wife/Mother

I love the way they've mutually adopted them, it's so pure. My only wish is for someone to see the giant flashing HELP! HELP! signs over Celeste's head, too

I think Dern is playing her with a slightly unhinged tone. I'm sure it's intentional and will amount to more for the character, but it makes her pretty difficult to empathise with. And Madeline is a total nightmare (I say this with love), it's easy to understand how she'd rub people the wrong way. I don't dislike…

Agreed about Skarsgård as Perry - this is probably the most powerful spousal abuse story I've ever seen, because he is pointedly not a grinning psychopath or a grimy misogynist. It's more insidious in it's subtlety. Monsters are humans and vice versa, and looking back on the way they started with the things that…

What's the difference between looking at those photos or stolen photos of 'childhood crushes' you went to school with? Or would you do that too?

There are billions of pictures of naked girls on the internet, including some that the women who were hacked willingly released on their own terms. Look at those. If you seriously feel compelled to look at these specific photos instead, ask yourself why.
