And we have a whole year and a half to get used to the idea.

I kept thinking, “Where’s the Jukebox playing Queen?” (Actually glad they didn’t bust out a Queen song.) But maybe Nate looking at a jukebox, considering, and then going, “Nah.” - would have been a “Nah” cliche but still would have been funny.

I though that too: that the Chalice was made irrelevant ... but then, if they time travel back 24 hours ... a-ha! It might still come into play. Re-drink? Or since Zari didn’t the first go-round, maybe she gets a sip. Yes, it might be irrelevant, but check back at the end of the season.

Fuu-uuck. I hope she does the audio book narration for the Villanelle Novels.

If you squint real hard it all makes a kind of sense. I guess the cops did round up all the Chicanos they could, brought them downtown, and randomly beat the shit out of all of them. The show has seemingly moved on from the first shootout.

Wouldn’t be a Batman without a recast. 

It for sure was a test to see which show could better handle the speed bump. And a peak at shows’ creative teams. Plus pregnancies ... plus coronavirus ... god, I don’t envy them.

He caught a bad case of Batman-growley-voice too. And he’s not even a Batperson! 

I haven’t formed an opinion of the deleted scene snippets. They’re a bit of a head fake during the commercial breaks. Weird comparrison, but they’re like the Rick and Morty Wendy’s/Pringles commercials airing within the show. The little antenna in your head says, “Hey, the show’s back on. Oh, wait ... no it’s not.” I’m

That would be brilliant, actually.

I’m almost on Magda’s side when it comes to the Club Chicanos. When she has the creepy kid as a sidekick - she’s clearly evil. As Rio ... well, she’s murderously militant, but her speech last week had some justifiable anger.

This might be a situation where they shot the pilot eight months prior to getting picked up. During the premier, I remember thinking, “Don’t kill the brother (Raul) he’s the most dynamic member of the cast!” So, maybe they picked up on that too and wrote him back into the show.

Agree on both. Molly’s reach for the holy spirit got intense too, as her mother’s reaction showed. I thought this episode was an improvement in tension over the last one.

I know it probably has nothing to do with anything, but the slam-on chapter & location titles have gotten a little loosey-goosey these last two episodes.

I hope they cast Rose Leslie as a villain next season so she can bitch about “The Foo-kin’ Crows.” Every time Jacob does something stupid, I hear her voice in my head.

True enough, but WB and Netflix are pretty friendly. Maybe that won’t last as the lines are drawn.

*Bumi*

Netfixs is going to run Avatar ads right before She-Ra and vice-versa. FYI - She-Ra hits Avatar levels once or twice per season. It’s aimed at an audience maybe one-year-younger than ATLA, but when they hit their groove, the She-Ra folks are right there.

They’re hitting the right generational wave. Like Mr Calavera says, everyone who bought ATLA on DVD hasn’t watched their DVDs in two or three years now, because who collects anything on DVD anymore? Netflix is buying up every animation that isn’t Disney. They’re pushing it. It is that good of a show. It makes sense.

“The King of Omashu” was the first one I ever saw and it hooked me. I’ve seen it so many times since that I’m sick of it now, but that first time ... King Boomie had just the right amount of humor and menace where you weren’t ever completely sure where the show would break until the end. Then you get a good helping of
