I like her but no thanks, the original is pitch perfect I need this as much as I need the US IT Crowd.

Excellent thanks! I checked it out last and glad to have it back.

Awesome jumped online and started watching it last night. First episode is a solid start to the new season. :-)

Burried lede here, wait, does this mean Black Lady Sketch Show (one of the best sketch shows to come out in the last decade over which there have been some very strong sketch shows) is back?! I’ve seen NOTHING about this until now! I’d have thought there would have been more marketing hype! Can’t wait you just made my…

People are supporting the dead civilians, the murdered innocents caught in the cross fire. It’s that lack of perspective that illustrates your true motivation. Often people on the right throwing around LGBTQ+ issues or antisemitism are using it as a smokescreen to get people to hate someone the right wants you to…

Eeeeehhhh... I say this as someone who loves The Muppets, who has watched literally everything they have ever produced under that name (except the new Muppet Babies). It’s not. It was VERY bad. There was a lot of conflict in the SNL writer’s room around them even being on the show (Michael O’Donoghue infamously said…

Having watched that entire period of SNL I’m glad they didn’t.

I doubt there is more than what has been said, I suspect it’s more a case of letting things cool off from the more serious allegations against others.

Yes, and in this case, she’s a person who actively works to promote transphobic ideals in her work (see her detective novels) and by collaborating to elevate transphobic voices and causes.

I don’t ride the wacky animals either, that’s my same line. That said, I don’t even think the “Story” thing is needed for fighting monsters. They sufficiently explain that in universe, they Minotaur and all the monsters were constructs made by the Isu. Easy peasy, the one area that riding the giant animals may work is…

Your point being? She’s still a hateful person who spreads misinformation and lies in order to hurt others. Just because she gives to charity doesn’t make the horrible things she does disappear.

Jesus! I don’t want to kink shame but JESUS!

But they have done it in the past, this ties into a broader pattern of behaviour.

Setting aside if you’re cool with the content or not how is this germane to the question of prices? This feels like a stretch.

In the old EU they were except when they found these beneficial traits and they then would experiment on them to see how they were able to apply these in select situations. I believe that’s still the working premise.

Just going to speak to the accent part, the reason they all share the same accent is they “flash learnt” language using a template from Jango Fett. So basically they learnt, linguistically, the same patterns he had.

I stand with the writers on this, I hope Disney does the right thing but there are a lot of moving parts here and I wouldn’t be shocked if what Disney did was to the letter of the law. Doesn’t mean it’s ETHICAL but legal. Here’s hoping they come around and compensate people appropriately.

Yeah, but, remember a lot of these writers negotiated during a time when genre material or comics were not respected. The shitty Marvel contracts go all the way back to when Stan was running the shop. There’s a lot of moving parts and differences of scale and timing. A comic writer now is much more educated than a…

The constant push and pull between those who get horny for practically anything and those who tell you not to be horny about anything on the internet is eternal.

To be fair, this is purely cosmetic. They have become a free to play game for a lot of content they have to make money somehow. Not ideal but it could be a lot worse and at least they’re giving us a way to do it in game.
