I like the idea of letting shows find their feet and grow. I'm less thrilled about it seeming to be abort sunk costs, creator prestige and simple stubbornness.

Eh, so are hipster movies starring an indie darling actress people keep hoping will do something good. Fans will see it regardless of the grade and no one else will no matter what it is.

D'oh; I missed it by *that* much.

If the black Centurion/Cop-Boss screams that "You're a loose catapult, Claviius; you're off the case!" it might be worth it.

Every time I see the title to this I assume it's about bread. But it's never about bread. It is rated PG-13 for "biblical violence" though, which also doesn't mean what you hope it means because it's PG-13.

Yeah, those Mischief boobs really burned into my retinas.

Well, what part of "The Wicker Man, only as an 80s erotic thriller" was giving you hope?

I can Nazi the problem?

If you make ALL the Germans evil, it just becomes politics. And since it's too early to show how some hid Jews in their basement, you have to get creative.

There was a TV movie where he was a tax evader, and then in the end the decided that a lifetime of racism would make anyone pissed off.

Wow; it's almost like middling fare gets received not on merit but on tribalism. In today's America? That's pretty hard to believe!

Those were mostly built-up-over-time actor's salaries for established money-makers. Not quite the same as first-year shows with huge overheads.

No. Oater is an awesome term.

Why do you think they call it dope?!
