Maybe all the money that they put into taking a half-hour cruise around space could be put to taxes instead so that NASA could make some actual scientific achievement.

The butt IS deserving of awards though.

It’s a perfect show for Netflix.  You can binge it in a few days, go “ooh, look at how sexy that is” and then largely forget about it until you need a pick-me-up.

Yikes, I want to give that first letter writer a gentle hug. What a fucking awful thing to do to anyone (but especially someone who you consider a friend!). I’ve slept with people I wasn’t really attracted to, but man, I don’t tell them I’m unattracted to them while the wet spot’s still drying. I don’t ever tell them!…

I admit that I would need to look a bit closer to some of it to see how well constructed it is. I forgot hair, though - those designs they made for whats-her-face (the snooty one who looks like she smells a fart and is in competition with Daphne for the Prince) were insane.

Anytime I say “this has it all” I channel my best Stefan.

I really, really recommend this book.  (Haven’t seen the show yet, but it’s on my list.)  Jane Harper has such a way with words, turning what could have been just a boilerplate “sad detective investigates things and is sad” book into a really gripping, evocative story that puts you right into the scene.  The way she…

There are jokes.  I would call it either a pretty dark comedy (considering much of it features teenagers basically trying to murder each other) or a very light-hearted drama.

They didn’t even adapt it, which would have been better.  I love Hamilton and I was so glad to finally get to see the original cast but . . . they filmed the play.  That does not a tv show make.  Unless the Emmy’s are in the habit of nominating every filmed concert that ever makes its way to HBO?

Hey, if Hamilton can be nominated for so many awards despite being filmed four years ago, It’s Always Sunny should get some despite not showing any new episodes in almost three years!

Ask the cast of Big Little Lies.

I really really hope Coel wins best Actress in her category. I know it will probably go to Kate Winslet or Anna-Taylor Joy and they both did fabulous jobs but Michaela Coel ripped out her beating heart and put it on display for the world.  Just in a different class altogether.  

I do not think WWDITS was eligible this year.  Season 2 was nominated for several Emmys last year.

I would say yes. I really really enjoy it (and am very happy that season 2 premieres next week). Ted Lasso has it all:

As much as I loved the show and Rege-Jean Page (he’s my Netflix profile icon now!), that anyone from Bridgerton is getting an acting nomination seems a bit silly. Art design, yes. Costuming, absolutely. But I don’t think anyone watching it was like “ah yes, these people are at the apex of their skills.” (Although it’s…

I swear GJ has chameleon-face when it comes to changing her hair color.  I would generally lay money on her being a very identifiable actor and then she shows up in, say, brown or red hair and I spend the whole time thinking “she sounds familiar .  . .”

No, I think it was more about escaping her more immediate threat.  Kurt equals safety from Patty’s increasingly fucked up world, and if he had said yes, I’d lay money that her next comment would be “we should elope.”  She just wants to get out because she can feel the walls closing in.  (And granted, it may very much…

Well, that’s cause Jason’s mom was such a good parent, teaching him moral lessons.

Oh, that felt VERY Fear Street to me, though.  Hardly anyone made it out of those books alive.

This soundtrack was a delight, and considering I was a teen in 1994, I’m not sure what it says about me that I knew more of the songs from this movie than the first one.  (Well, I knew almost all of the ones from the first one, so I should say “knew and liked” more of the songs in this movie.)
