Both the characters of Shirley and Britta started out with promise and then devolved into weird stereotypes. There’s very little of the holy-roller Shirley at the outset of the show, and by the time Yvette Nicole Brown left the show, that was the character’s only trick. Likewise, Britta started out as a pretty sharp

It’s really a fantastic show, way better than I was expecting from something building off something as thoroughly mediocre as Voyager. And getting to hear Kate Mulgrew playing an awkward teenage boy in the body swap episode is worth its existence alone.

Ya know, I’m rewatching Agents of SHIELD and I gotta say: You can tell the showrunners actually had a plan going into it, at least for the first few seasons. Even the first half of the first season is a lot of really good setup for what happens down the line.  I kinda miss a show getting more than 20 episodes and

Roz and Frasier sleeping together was a groan-inducing mistake that never should have been put on screen.

She didn’t ‘lose’ and he didn’t ‘win’. He settled for $1 mil instead of the $10 mil he tried for initially. And it’s funny you mention people hating to work with her, because everything I’ve ever heard from *before* this absolute circus of a trial went down is that she was lovely to be with on set (and in general). I

Why are we just taking this guy’s word for it that there are only 30 great sitcom writers? I’d suggest (also without evidence) that there have ALWAYS been way more great TV writers than that - they just had no opportunity when there were only three networks.

We put our faith in Blast HardCheese!”

Would have liked to see Stewart’s take on the TOS episode The Enemy Within.

Tom Hardy’s on-set behavior aside, Shinzon really is a terrible villain. One step above a low rank Bond villain. His actions in Nemesis only make sense if you act like he doesn’t really want to invade the Federation and is trying to sabotage himself at every opportunity.

“You won’t find my holographic projector, so

I moved into a new apartment in Manhattan’s East Village in 2018. It was a huge upgrade for me, and it really is special. It’s kind of a carriage house building with only five apartments and you have to walk through another building to get to it. There is an adorable little courtyard with trees and flowers, and I even

Baylan is watching because he doesn’t have anywhere to be yet, but ultimately he’s gonna go activate the extra-galactic McGuffin that’s a bigger threat than Thrawn, which has been his actual reason for being involved in all this the whole time. I think it’s still split between, in decreasing order of likelihood: some

First I’ve heard of this but interestingly enough, I was asked to grab one for a friend while running into a Starbucks this summer. I commented to him that the prices were ridiculous and he said “Dude, fruit isnt exactly cheap and these are made fresh”

This. And it’s why I can’t even “drive through” anymore. It’s ridiculous. 

I’ll never get tired of this.

I think the kid looks ok, but your comment made me go back to the pic and notice that DeSantis is wearing a shirt with his own campaign logo on it. That’s about the saddest fucking thing I’ve ever seen...except maybe for the bomber jacket and Top Gun shades.

the rite included a prayer circle in Schlapp’s office, which one person described as performative and inauthentic."

According to Jason Alexander, the lack of chemistry was exactly what Larry David wanted between George and Susan:

Why does Ross, the largest friend, not simply eat the other friends?

I haven’t seen Rebels, but I’m almost hoping that Thrawn kind of feels like the competent Internal Security Bureau folks from Andor. Guy should be both charismatic and incredibly competent.

This is basically like watching a movie where a bunch of arrogant Nazis decide to set fire to Dracula’s castle.
You can’t help but cheer the inevitable massacre to follow.
