All episodes seem to be currently available on HULU. I just added to my list.

It was kind of amazing watching it with live fireworks sounds in the background. I highly recommend people do that tonight.

We had this thing in Arkansas called Governors’ School that was co-ed. I didn’t go because, you know, I really needed to play AAU basketball if I was going to be the first 6'0 white guy drafted #1 in the NBA. Anyway, my brother went and said it was basically sex camp. He still gets a goofy far-off look on his face

What’s up with the scratch V/O on the Curious George trailer? Sounds like they sent the wrong file.

Now playing

Well, I didn’t really expect Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes to be available ...

Her and Michael Rappaport, and even more so because they used to be hilariously bitter enemies. That’s just the white people version, however. Cardi B and Desus Nice could work as well. 

Whoa, I just learned she used to be married to Jimmi Simpson. Talk about a character actor power couple.

Would anybody have even heard of the Beatles if they weren’t four cute floppy-haired English guys essentially setting the template for white boy bands? I’m guessing Beatlemania had more effect on their level of fame than their music, at least at first.

I’ve worked in advertising/P.R. for decades, so I’ve dealt with a lot of celebrities. However, since I live in NYC, I’ve also had a few mundane interactions.

I was behind Maggie and her family in customs entering Jamaica for about an hour. They seemed like really nice people. She’s very tall, at least 6'.

Yeah, I read through his Wikipedia page and it’s insane. The personal section alone is easily a movie, maybe a documentary series. I hope someone manages to do his life story justice.

She’s fantastic and I’d never seen her in anything before this. I think this review is underselling the movie a bit. It’s far and away the best teen rom-com I’ve seen on Netflix. I mean, it won Best Narrative Film at TriBeCa, which is something I wouldn’t expect out of a typical Netflix YA take.

Yeah, we get it, #notallcars. The problem is that NYC is screwed up because of this mid-century d-bag named Robert Moses.

I remember that movie, it had James from Twin Peaks. Also Cuba Gooding (now Badding) Jr. Also the soundtrack had a couple of decent tracks.

Or ... (shudders) Contact.

I went in to this knowing literally nothing about it. I just read the synopsis and put it on. After the first episode I still didn’t know what was going on. Thought about turning it off, but I typically give anything two episodes as you can’t trust pilots. The second episode was a banger that explained a lot. I found

The one that killed me is literally Miss Netherlands 2008 as scrappy local journalist, but all-in-all the acting was good. Love some of the character actor casting (Kevin Durand as a convincing mad scientist, Jennifer Beals as how-the-fuck-is-she-63 hot sheriff, Adrienne Barbeau as every asshole boss I’ve ever had,

I’m from Pine Bluff, AR, and the crazy crime stuff I’ve seen there most definitely should be made into movies/TV shows. 

Trader Joe’s is a near-unanimously beloved grocery store that deals in mostly exclusive private label groceries that are the result of a stringent tasting process.
