It was a surprising treat, fresh and uncompromising. Smart plays it perfectly but has a great cast of character actors surrounding her. Two episodes showcased but I could have kept watching, it was really enjoyable.  Putting the pepper shaker next to the one she already has with a satisfied smirk, little touches like…

Yes to everything you said. While watching it, my husband said Jean Smart is the next Betty White - she can do anything and does everything well.

I’ve watched both episodes, it’s just fantastic.

Yes, but Whedon is one of the most self-conscious writers in the business. Quip, quip, quip, quip. Everyone has a snarky quip for every situation. His brand is OTT so it isn't unreasonable to be pulled out by his presence over the show. 

Probably show up in season 4
Like remember that half second clip of a balloon inflating? It’s important now.

The way everyone just knew of Galanthie and was using the name casually drove me nuts in this episode as I kept trying to remember did they establish that term in the message last episode. The pacing of this show is crazy as if they knew they had this many episodes, which had to be aware of when production started,…

How does anyone watch this show and not wonder "what bullshit was Joss Whedon pulling on this episode?"

Read up what he did when those kids were trapped in the flooded cave.

yup, you keep defending him.

No, Musk is a pretty horrible person, I think that reaction is totally appropriate.

No, it’s because he has the habit of being an asshole.

Oh, look, it’s you with your performative apathy again. 

“I now choose to live my life as an Aspergers man.”

Diagnosed aspie here. It reminds me of when Kevin Spacey tacitly excused his perversion by coming out as gay. Thankfully that happened after gay people were mostly accepted by society.

Important to note, if you go to the linked article, the former employee who complained about Musky’s hypocrisy was NOT getting high at work. She was a medical marijuana patient who used it off hours as prescribed, but when she was drug tested, tested positive because that’s how THC works.

I get the impression he used his Asperger’s announcement more as a shield than as an attempt to shed light.

“I really don’t mean to come across as a Musk apologist”

Lecturing someone about how they feel about the potential complicated public fallout of that revelation is not the good look you think it is. 

“he’s generally cogent and reasonable”

Every season is slightly worse than the season before
