I mean, that;s literally what happened. The plan was always 3 seasons, but Hulu demanded a 4th. So they’re streeetttcchhhiiiing it ouuuut

It’s mentioned at some point this season that Pete’s a lawyer.

Dear employees of Restaurant Depot: Did none of you think it might be a good idea to help the severely pregnant lady with her giant boxes of paper towels?

Related to the point about egos, I do not think Adam is fucking with Carmy, and I also do not think he is a good guy. I think he’s pretty much just like Carmy, in that he wants to include Syd because he recognizes her value, and will ultimately fuck her over because of his own ego. It’s not even that he intends to do

Never trust a guy who calls himself a feminist

Amanda Palmer said the nanny was the 14th woman to complain about him to her. Oof. Imagine how many didn’t in that time period. This is why an “open relationship” with a narcissist, sociopath, or psychopath is generally a poor idea.

Tortoise Media, which as I write this is the only source for this story, is a far right podcast strongly tied to Boris Johnson, and best known for screaming about trans people. Neil Gaiman has been hugely critical of Johnson ever since he came onto the public scene, and is currently doing multiple projects with strong

I was listening to The Watch with Andy Greenwald and Chris Ryan yesterday, and they said that Christopher Storer had the series planned for three seasons, but FX wanted him to do one more after it become such a huge hit. So the story for season three is now being stretched over seasons three AND four, which helps

YESSS...stop trying to write an interesting review, damnit.

what the fuck are you talking about? 

I’ve never felt more seen

I lost it at “It’s dystopian butter?”

Because, like all studios these days, Warners keeps learning all the wrong lessons from their failures. (Specifically in this case, they think the Fantastic Beasts series tanked because it doesn’t have Harry Potter, instead of because it sucked.)

Good selections here, but Justice 4 “Don’t Be Ridiculous” s2 e3 - the pay-off for the long running joke that the entire cast of Perfect Strangers departed...except actually Mark Linn-Baaker used the opportunity to go on the run. The change of theme song! Mark Linn-Baaker turning in a great performance! The Wu-Tang

One of my top five shows of all time, and while it does get a lot of acclaim from the right places, I think it deserves even more - it really deserves to be on the same pedestal as Sopranos, The Wire, the BBverse, etc. Just beautiful television.

I can only think of one other show (Halt and Catch Fire) that only gets better episode by episode all the way to the finale. It’s hard to commit- but this may be my favorite show of all time. I can’t think of any other that has stuck with me in every way after finishing it. It can bring back those initial emotions

The entire time I watched this show I kept asking myself “what IS this? What does any of this MEAN?” And then in the last 10 minutes when they finally reveal everything I screamed “THIS IS THE BEST SHOW I HAVE EVER SEEN.”

There aren’t a lot of shows where the weakest episode is still better TV than almost anything else on contemporaneously but this show pulled it off. Carrie Coon is amazing and this for me is the best thing Eccleston has ever done. The finale wrecked me & I still think about it often.
