Yes. Yes, they will.

I hate to say or even think it but won’t the borderline insane anti-vaccers of the U.S. seize on this?

New England’s early history doesn’t give it terribly progressive track record itself, especially on witchcraft. Might not be the best perch to throw stones from.

I know all about this. I couldn't celebrate Halloween as a kid because of my paranoid fundie parents. They literally believe there are demons attached to Harry Potter books.

Heh; I once worked with a woman who was a huge HP fan, despite her insistence that it promotes witchcraft and is “of the devil.” She also once equated a date’s kissing technique with a Dementor, which I’m guessing is a not-good thing from the HP universe.

Hatian Vodou is actually a very important cultural cornerstone. It’s helped keep African and Native Taino traditions alive under dire circumstances (ya know, Blancs keeping them as slaves and working them to death while trying to force them to convert to Catholicism) so I can see why they’d take insult. As a Blanc…

“Witches of Waverly Place” - a show about two snarky, overy-fashionable, magical teens and their goofy magical parents. The only thing that show is dangerous to is female role models. (The selling point of the lead heroine is that she’s bad at actually using her brain, but at least she’s pretty, popular, and can sing…

I god damn love Channing Tatum. I met him once at a studio in LA when I was working the front desk. He greeted me “wassup girl.” It was perfect.

Is she literally having a photo shoot in the trailer of an 18-wheeler? Is it a room? Is that wall made out of painted science fair posterboard? I feel like a pie toss might take place there? But also maybe it’s an industrial freezer?

This.

I have to admit I’ve been more focused on what is to come in the book and whether (and how) it might be different. About 50 pages after this part of the book I had to set it aside for about six months and I’m just not sure I’m ready for it onscreen. I suspect the approach of the show may diverge a lot.

Yes. A Fat-one.

Some of us were never kind, gentle, warm-hearted or sympathetic to begin with. So I guess I just lost half an arm and some dress - scandalous!

As Ann as the nose on plain’s face.

I’ll admit, I said out loud, “I LOOKED AT ALL THOSE BOOBS FOR THIS??”

I mean honestly, the cast is crazily A+. Samuel L. Jackson! Jeremy Renner! Michelle Rodriguez! LL Cool J! Josh Charles!

Here here!

I’m an equal opportunity perv so I’d really like to see some dong in a sexy situation.

so much peen, so little time.
