I understand that there’s some context and baggage around surfing in terms of white people taking over native lands/surfing areas because it’s now cool and trendy, sure.

I feel like the movies have skewed people’s memories of the show - the show came out in 1998, when TV was still playing by the same playbook it always had, and HBO was just starting to try new things. Oz was only a year before. The L word (Showtime) wasn’t until 2004.

I mean I hate to be a “generationalist” but Gen Z has the worst takes on so many things.

Please explain to me what you think a super majority is, and where this currently exists in America.

I think everything until the ending is great. But that last episode is so rushed, and actually resolves TOO much. I wish they hadn’t really redeemed Walker - not made him murder more, but saving those people felt a bit hammy. Just kept it ambiguous and frustrating - because he’s a frustrating character.

Wasn’t this site proclaiming a while back that it’s not connected enough the bigger MCU narrative? 

She’s 33?!?!?  I thought she was like 25, which is still too old for a “regular” person to have a cringe phase (feels like 16-22 is really the prime time).  That’s just sad, but hey, when you’re rich, who cares about anything?

Well, one side of the aisle has tried to violently overthrow the electoral process, and for those conservatives who “don’t condone it”, they surrreeee have been silent on the issue.

If you think this isn’t the network trying to make the Biden administration look bad, you’re not paying attention.

Ted Lasso directly deals with panic attacks, divorce, loneliness, and toxic masculinity.  Sure, it’s not Oz or The Wire, but it’s not a dumb, mindless comedy.  It’s also a show that sticks with a lot of people, something a lot of comedies can’t do.

No, it’s called “having a sense of humor.”

It’s the Grey’s Anatomy and Friday Night Lights playbook of consistently flagellating the characters situationally and emotionally. It’s absurd.

The defense doesn’t need to do all that if they can’t find any physical evidence showing he probably killed her.  Think about Casey Anthony - we “know” she did it, but they have to prove it beyond any reasonable doubt.  That’s really hard to do.

If pandemic is what is now driving these decisions, these people already knew they had a shitty partner.

What a ridiculous take. Why do you assume these women are all staying home and taking care of the kids? Do you only know rich people?

Is this the James Comey playbook?  Do you not fucking remember what happened to Hillary?

Are you REALLY this naive? This isn’t an attack, but honestly after the last 5 years, haven’t you learned enough?

I will always fight for it but I fear it’s already over.

This has happened before, it’ll happen again. When the rich get too rich and there’s nothing left for the rest of us, things happen. Though this time, the rich have access to weaponry that we peasants don’t. The bigger worry now is that our economies are built on consumption vs. just straight-up monarchies, and when…

Perhaps maybe this time, considering the source, we DON’T necessarily believe her right off the bat?
