Well, the Avengers did have Shakespeare In The Park. "Doth Mother know you weareth her drapes?". 

Evidently, unlike Marvel, the DCEU keeps going from weak to weak.

My only issue is that not a year goes by, not a year, that I don’t hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent - I don’t care which one - but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator.

I think this was a bit shit. Hermine clearly deserved Star Baker, she ran it end to end so good on her, and Mark is a bit of a dark horse considering he barely made it through the first two episodes and now he’s consistently near the top but: (a) Dave was really terrible today, his first two were inedible and he…

I didn’t feel as strongly about the ice-cream cake showstopper challenge. Even if there was a heatwave, the contestants still were aware it was summer and could have probably worked out that it would be a bad idea to put the ice-cream on the outside of the cake. Also Hermine, Peter and Marc all managed to pull it off…

I mean, Paul is a jackass but he clearly meant hadn’t broken into the mainstream in the west yet which is 100% true. I enjoyed their little back and forth about it becoming a thing where Prue was (being a food writer in the 80s among other things of course she’d have been more aware of it)

“this chutney is way better than the chutney they have in india!”
“this general tso chicken is SO authentic!”
“Mexican food is too spicy in Mexico!”
“This English food is edible!”
ALL SIGNS U R DOING IT RONG

The Brownie Challenge was possibly the worst effort from top to bottom of any GBBO cast.

“The writing around Viola’s disease also plays into some ableist tropes. She becomes angry and bitter as a result of her illness, and it turns her into a monster.”

I don’t feel good about making this comment, but I think horror of all genres can certainly play on “ableist” tropes, particularly one that is so…

Although didn’t they say immediately afterward that the “mercy” was a lie? As in, Perdita was rationalizing her greed as mercy. Could have been handled better though.

The leeches were definitely there on Viola.  You must’ve missed them.

Wow a D is a bit harsh.  This was actually my favorite episode of the bunch, that might be a controversial take.  Always a plus to have Kate Siegel.  Also I don't think this was abelist, or at the very least not written to be read like that.  When faced with inevitable death like tuberculosis, people tend to change…

Disagree. Also she doesn’t walk “every night”

I very much enjoyed this episode, because it provided satisfying answers to all the questions I had leading up to it. I thought it was a well-written and captivating story.

Watched Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist this year, and every time Skylar Astin’s character appeared it made me wish they’d gotten Tveit instead.

Learned this morning that Mary Berry has been made a dame. Take that, Paul Hollywood!

yeah, I am an authority on bagels.  Because that’s where I grew up.  Like Paul and crap like “sultanas.”  Making shitty bagels is offensive.  And I’m glad he supports healthcare, but the rainbow bagel came from a place near Fort Green.  Show some fucking respect, you adulterous shitbag.

The older bakers often excel at the homely arts but not the more forward requirements, so I find myself glad that Linda and Marc survived the first week to flourish here. I don’t know that they have it for going much further though, or Laura, who seems too middle of the pack. David had a bad result for most of the…

You really need to watch The West Wing and Sports Night.
