“but the supposed victim makes it sound like they felt like Miller provided them a kind of safe haven away from abusive parents”

Caveat that this is exactly what a groomer would try to develop in their groomee.

“Until Jurassic World: Dominion, I would never have expected one that’s utterly boring.”

“Rumor has it that Spielberg once wanted a Jurassic film to build to scenes involving dinosaurs strapped with rockets, running into battle”

The thing is, people who prefer to binge can do so - they simply have to wait until all the episodes have been released.

Except lots of Netflix shows end each episode with some big cliffhanger anyway, so the binge model doesn’t actually do anything to prevent that.

No, the only reason people even bring up weekly releases is because they’ve been trained to get that from networks from years past.

“Are people spending an entire week talking about one episode of tv? You just watching that one show and feel the need to discuss it constantly?”

In my experience, yeah! People are aware that not everyone has the time to binge it right away, so they’re more careful about it. There are also just less people who’ve seen it immediately to spoil it immediately. Whereas in a weekly show it’s like “whatever, you should just watch on time next week”

Throw in Breaking Bad or even Better Call Saul. 

“The last time I ever went to a Gamestop, an employee openly mocked my intelligence for not signing up for their membership thing”

Oh shit, I completely forgot they did that to me too.

Never met a district manager for any company, regardless of whether I worked for that company or not, that I didn’t think wouldn’t be greatly improved if they were attacked by a pack of wolves in the deep woods of Canada, so this comes as no surprise.

“how did Ryan’s father find Barry passed out in an alleyway?”

Oh, are you *tired* of the sex pest getting called out for his sex pestery?

He's done nothing to indicate that his attitude, views, or behavior have changed. An apology without genuine repentance isn't worth the paper it's printed on. 

While I don’t want to minimize or make light of the effect that had on you and your siblings

Don’t be so sure. There was a lot of punk before “punk broke”:

Sexual crimes shouldn’t have a statute of limitations.

Hateful bigot, and saaaad little person. Hundreds of comments on this thread, one of which is bragging about having “such a cool job you wouldn’t even believe me if I showed you the paystubs!” Eek. This is a miserable, icky person.

It would be nice to not be the butt end of a joke for at least one Netflix comedy special while my state desperately tries to make me not real.  It gets a little tiring.
