The logic is not to fight large forest fires with your home equipment, but rather to have the ability to stop any minor household/property fires immediately before you start the next large forest fire.

... Fine, I guess?

Correction - I was a decade off, but still a 58 year old Falco playing a turning 50 Hillary is a bit weird.

Isn’t Edie Falco at this point as well? Hillary was turning 40 during this and Falco is coming up on 60.

De-aging CGI is expensive, time-consuming and labor-intensive and I don’t think Penn had Netflix footing the bill on what looks like an inexpensive indie with a relatively small crew.

Eh - as long as he’s not writing it, it should be pretty good; the previous ACS miniseries were great because he directed some episodes and left the scriptwriting to others.

A) I specifically didn’t spell it out because I purposely choose not to use that word.

So using racial slurs fits under the “dumbass shit” umbrella that we don’t have to apologize for? Cool, I’ll let my high school classmates know that calling me “n*gger” was all good because we were fourteen.

Feels like this could be a double bill with Alice Lowe’s horror comedy Prevenge.

Don’t even have to leave Atlanta - Brian Tyree Henry.
