The Magicians (SyFy TV series) was very LGBTQIA-friendly to begin with, but the episode “A Life in the Day” was maybe one of my best (top 10?) episodes of television in the last couple of decades and one of the best queer episodes I’ve seen in quite a while...

I’ll be honest, I really thought the headline read “decapitation-proof” and was very confused as to the “Suspiciously Specific Denial” (thanks TV Tropes!) of it all...

I know, right?  Like was there not TV before the 1990s or something?

Yeah, this is spot-on. I always used to make a birthday cheesecake for a professional cake maker friend because no one would ever dare make them a cake, and they never got to eat cheesecakes. Big hit every year. (or they were being polite!)

At least a couple not listed, both in the Doctor Who sphere (which I guess is sort of a cheat):

I mean, look, of the movies on the list — the only ones that really make sense given what we know would be The Rock (Hercules), Fassbender (The Snowman), or Gyllenhaal (Life) — but that sort of is contrary from what we normally hear from these guys’ sets largely.

Why would you remind me of AICN?!?

I mean, he was fire in BlackKklansman at the very least.

This is... certainly a take.

Fall-from-Grace from Planescape: Torment probably.  I mean, also Annah, but really primarily Fall-from-Grace...  

Yeah, also even if her argument was, and a court upheld that, her speech was “political in nature” — that’s still not a protected class when dealing with a private entity/employer (except potentially in Washington DC, where political party is apparently a protected class).

Wasn’t Simon Williams an actor in the comics, and a stunt man (a la The Fall Guy), and presumably that portion of his background and NOT the arms dealer bit will have him intersect with Slattery?

I think we were just so spoiled for choice because so many songs in 1983 either were released so late (or were so popular) that they charted for an immense amount of time in 1984 as well. It was a truly unreal couple of years in music...

So we’re counting Take On Me as the 1985 release then, rather than the 1984 original release (which is fair, if so)...

“Anyone estimated to be under the age of 27 can continue shopping, but at the end of the experience, somebody needs to check their age,” Annemüller explains in the video. “And if you are over 27, just scan your items and you can check out without any manual age check.”

It could also be another MAX adaptation like they did before; but Malina’s been joking about a reboot for years, like clockwork, so it’s good we don’t believe that... 

I made that EXACT point to my wife.
