Are you talking about the 1998 Eddie Murphy Dr. Dolittle? Because that was not the original.

All of his critique of her speech was based on style. He did suggest more substantive changes, but only in their private secret meeting. And the episode didn’t address the content of her speech at all after Charteris gets shot down, and in the end when the royals are forced to interact with “common folk” the episode

This was the episode that gave me a brain sprain with its thematic gymnastics. I thought the episode was going to address the content of Elizabeth’s speech, not the tone of her voice. They made it seem like that too, at the beginning, when Charteris is diplomatically trying to suggest toning down the paternalistic,

I don’t think Laura was talking about bear meat in her fridge, she was talking about an actual live bear scavenging in her fridge, as she was explaining why one has to cook with as little waste as possible in Alaska.

I’d read the article before going and making jokes like that.

Actually he wanted her to get rid of the unibrow and limp and basically do the movie version of a Sexy Frida Kahlo Halloween costume.

Look, I’m going to attempt to explain this to you, since you clearly have some kind of personal hang-up about hugs.

So did I—liking the show isn’t an issue here. I just disagree with you framing those who were excited for a woman-centered show as “man-haters” and then when I disagreed with you, dismissing my argument as “outrage,” which is just a notch above “hysterics.”

Sounds like you’re the one who’s outraged at the idea anyone would dare wish for a female-centric western.

Serves them right for hiring such a mercurial director.

Fair enough, I guess. It will still annoy me though.

Twizzlers, on the other hand, should be aged at least a couple days with the package open before they reach their peak. For this reason, never buy those tubs of individually wrapped Twizzlers.

I thought this was the worst episode of Outlander yet. Every scene with Geillis was embarrassing. According to the “behind the scenes” short at the end of the episode, the bloodbath scene was a man’s idea, inspired by vampire movies—what a shocker. I agree with the reviewer that it was a cool visual for the first 1.5

I’d be interested if he goes the Inglourious Basterds route and has Sharon Tate waste a bunch of murderous cult members.

I actually really liked the little Pinkerton storyline with Marta (I believe that was the German woman’s name).

Well, it looked to me like she was whipped with a belt while half naked in front of everybody. That’s going to cause some damage no matter who you are and what times you live in. Anyway, plenty of people at that time thought corporeal punishment for children was wrong. I definitely think “beaten” is a more accurate

I work from home! Not only can I wear whatever I want and fart and burp with abandon, but the only harassment I receive is from a small black cat.

I was glad to see more of the La Belle women here; like some commenters from the first episode, I felt kind of duped by the marketing of the show as it became clear over the hour that this is, indeed, your dad’s western.
