Things I never thought I would say: Chet Hanks was an inspired bit of casting.

Not that this is the intention...but maybe the whole idea of being in foreign territory for our main 4some is why we are getting anthology episodes.
The sense of alienation with these side stories where we, the audience, are now outside our comfort zone, are doing our best to find the “Atlanta” vibe we can recognize…
I dunno, I disagree that this fell flat. It revisited a lot of themes that have popped up in the show before (the desire for minority culture as long as you have the ability to contain it or escape from it at will being the big one) and I thought pulled them off pretty well from the jump. Miles can listen to his…
It's a shame how the powers that be have gutted this site so badly.
Great article about a great episode of a great show.
Also: “People hate when I do this.”
“Arseny went so far as to send me an exquisite video of himself dumping what appears to be a can of High Life into a pitcher.”
(Not a lawyer but I have done some research on the subject)
As the disclaimer in front of every episode mentions, it is a dramatization, which means that where the data doesn’t match the arc of the story they’re telling, the arc of the story takes precedence. (This is also true of almost all documentaries, by the way! Once you start arranging and curating a set of facts to…
Yeah, I find this show breathlessly entertaining. And I think multiple episodes ads up to more layered, compelling characters. Jerry West’s “character” has calmed down now that he is not coaching, validating his brace decision to put his own mental health and marriage ahead of coaching. Magic’s “character” has…
“...It’s Drearily Dull.” Which is exactly what you would expect Kareem, as depicted in Winning Time, to say. And then he says it in real life.
The casting is phenomenal. And it’s definitely not boring.
So you sexually harassed your coworkers? Ya, good you worked when people looked the other way. Creepy though that you admit that.
imdb’s got Fogler listed to return for the final leg of this bloated mess. This show’s cast is waaayyy too big. They should’ve killed off most of them years ago. Negan, Princess, and a couple of the other newer characters are the only ones I even enjoy watching. And there’s no narrative tension with Daryl and Carol…
And, really, we could leave it right there (Maybe for good! That would be nice!)
The US’s entire history is stemmed from oppression; to steal from “the other” and to gain from it all. To take pride in the country’s history, while proclaiming to denounce racism means having to own up to your beloved country’s actions. And no politician wants to do that AND part up with their money.
Unlikely theory: homage to the Dude, who we never actually see bowling.
Gotta love how this supposedly revolutionary technology has been around for over a year now, and so far its done absolutely nothing except overcomplicate the process of saving a Jpeg, make video games less fun (“play to earn?” how about I play to enjoy, dumbshit?) and of course, vomit out a staggering amount of…
Is the sophomore episode slump a thing? I hear it about albums, but episodic TV?
I found the shots when Marc is leaving the museum on the CCTV, and looking at the camera, with Steven looking back - shot-to-shot-to-shot-to-shot of the same actor staring at us, a masterclass... the hair is the same, the clothes are the same, but Oscar Isaac exuded such different energies as each character that it…
