I can believe she had sex, then was ghosted

That’s because the media objectifies women even when they’re dead.

It’s all “defund the police” until you get a bad burrito.

A show called “Just The News, Not Noise” has a washed up actor on to complain about things? The irony.

“They asked me to play a pedophile terrorist”

I’ll give the guy credit: This is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever read.

There are a lot of bad things on Twitter, and then there is Lucy Lawless herself never missing an opportunity to dunk on her old co-star for the newest dumb thing he said. She’s a national treasure and she’s not even ours! 

[...] if I played a radical Islamic pedophile terrorist in a movie, I’d get nominated for an Academy Award.

I don’t know what he was like in the 90s, but I do think a lot of actors who have a big role and then spend years struggling to get work again afterwards are particularly susceptible to this kind of shit. Because when you mentally have to accept one of the following: (a) you’re not a very good actor, you lucked into

See: Dean Cain, Ricky Schroder, Scott Baio 

The Takeout talked about it as a ‘trend’ in January. Seems they thought it was real.

“The Homeliest Little Horse” is an immediate classic for me. Incredible ending.

the way the scavenger hunt clues were smoothly (but not so subtly) integrated into the songs was absolutely hilarious

The moment I saw Tracy as the receptionist I knew something was up, but I don’t really feel bad for Lisa who entered the B plot eating a hard boiled egg while she watches her TSA coworker who won’t even say hello to her (for obvious reasons) undress.

I really liked Season 3 because it felt different, which totally makes sense when you leave Atlanta and fly to an entire different continent (don’t forget peak COVID filming mandates, so c’mon already). I like it when a show takes chances rather than settle for consistent journeyman plotting for future seasons.

That

“I can’t tell if this is extreme, extreme pettiness..... or terrorism”.

One thing I thought about with the lady “chasing” Darius was eventually her chair would run out of power, and I’m surprised it lasted that long. But, considering this is Atlanta and normal rules don’t apply, perhaps the chair was powered by her spite?

Now THAT is Atlanta. Don’t get me wrong, Season 3 was entertaining and had its good points, but it just felt different (and not just because they did half the episodes without the main cast). Everything that makes this show special, the cast, the vibe, the jokes, the commentary, it was all there in these two episodes.
