I read the headline and subheadline too quickly and I saw “Equestrian Jessica Springsteen” and my first thought was “here we go with the stupid first names for kids.”

Wait, if real life relationships aren’t exactly like TV relationships then why did that guy who looked like Worf dive tackle me when I tried to get Patrick Stewart’s autograph?

I am. I think it could be an interesting premise. It could also be pretty terrible. But it reminds me of those “Free Air Conditioning with Summer movie!” movies that I used to love to go see in the 90's. Only I get this one free with my Invincible and the Boys and Lord of the Rings TV Show Subscription.

This isn’t original but I’m going to hold my hand up and say that it’s probably Kang manipulating everything so that he can come into existence. I don’t think we’ll see him, but I think he’ll get referenced as the next big bad a la Thanos. It’s something that would bring together the OG Avengers and the YA Avengers.

I’m very on board for Crank 3. (I mean this as a very high compliment.)

I know we still like drama but an update to the update would be that they’re all cool now. 

That’s the problem, though. It could range from “Don’t ever say anything bad about me, ever” (which, fuck that) up to “hey, don’t tell people what we’re willing to charge you so we can negotiate each artist separately.” (which, isn’t great but not the worst thing in the world)

It’s not the MOST promising thing (and I don’t fully trust him) but Taylor has legions of loyal fans and she is not shy about using them to put pressure on people. (Ginny and George... and during WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH, PEOPLE.) In some cases, I might bring an NDA as well to avoid some unneeded trial by public. 

I’m more surprised we didn’t believe the “her” side* of this since Amber Heard’s ex-girlfriend accused her of abuse before dropping the claims when lawyers got involved.

I support this plan.

Let’s see... do we trust the guy who ended up with the master recordings as part of a deal with a label, or do we trust the lady who notably rallied her fans to attack a little seen TV show and then said nothing when some of those same fans hurled racist insults at the show’s minor star?

We’re really not going to be satisfied until an old video surfaces and someone dies by suicide as a result.

I really wish this show had taken an anthology approach instead of trying to position June as the Most Important Handmaid in the World. Part of the point of the book was that she wasn’t, and that Gilead was a chilling place that took away your humanity to the point that in the end we didn’t know if she was going to…

I thought one of the jokes was that Jessica does have a personality - she’s rarely standing around waiting for Morty. She’s usually active, has friends, has been on dates... The joke is that we see her through Morty’s eyes, so we, the viewer don’t see that. 

I see both sides of this, and I’m a little more on Mackie’s side right now.

Let me start by saying I agree with your premise: representation in media is important.

I agree, but I think it could work in another way:

My theory is that the “sacred timeline” is the one that ends in Kang being in charge. We won’t see him, but we’ll get references. “Lady Loki” is the enchantress, and is trying to prevent it... the TVA doesn’t realize they’re being used.

I really, really like this theory. 

My theory is that the “sacred timeline” is the one that makes Kang who he is. We won’t see Kang, but we’ll get bits and references to him to set him up as the next big bad.
