Remember when we were all “Oh man, something big’s gonna happen with Dottie” and then really nothing did?

Ugh, that’s awful. But nice to hear she’s coming back for the Agatha show.
I listened to a lot of Rush Limbaugh/Glenn Beck/Sean Hannity (they're all the same show) back when I had to commute and whenever anyone asked why I'd say it kept me liberal.
A ton of Obama staffers and Democratic politicians have come out and said the West Wing is what made them go into politics. So when people say “poisoned” by The West Wing they mean “politicians who got it in their heads that if they compromise and/or out logic the people clearly acting in bad faith and care nothing…
It’s like people complaining about the idealism in Star Trek because it’s ‘unrealistic.’ Just give me an hour a week where I can imagine that humanity sorted its shit and became the good guys, ok? There’s value in aspirational storytelling.
If someone can offer a compelling argument for the wide reaching destructive impacts of the West Wing, particularly compared with six trillion other forms of problematic media out there, well...actually don’t, I’m busy. It’s just a fantasy, an aspirational pep talk based on a decades-old political landscape that made…
I’m not a republican, and you can thank republicans for that.
Or, fuck you asshole.
“Calls Senate candidate J.D. Vance a “rich twat....I mean, I’m a rich twat, but I’m not running for office pretending that I’m not.””
OH!!! I laughed, even though I couldn’t quite figure out why I laughed!! But on some level, I got it.
Speaking of blink-and-you’ll-miss-him: We also learn in the movie that Thor’s ex-flatmate Darryl (see below) is working in New Asgard; he’s listed as “Darryl the Tour Guide” in the credits.
I’d like to briefly brag here: After Endgame I went out and bought the Jason Aaron/Russell Dauterman original run of Jane Foster Thor spanning from her introduction until “War of the Realms”. I was NOT expecting so many lines and scenes to be adapted directly from those books I read.
I wasn’t a Harry Potter kid and I…
My favorite joke in the whole movie was Korg’s deity sitting on a throne of scissors.
Legends of To-Meow-Meow is such a great episode, I was watching it on a train and I had to turn it off because I was laughing too hard (don’t worry, I was obviously wearing headphones, I’m not a monster).
I love this show so much. I don’t object to any of the episodes named. Here I Go Again & The One Where We’re Trapped on TV are particular favorites, probably not coincidentally because they are crucial Zari episodes.
Season 1 of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and most of Season 2, was truly abysmal writing that never would have survived today to become such a classic.
I think I remember almost choke laughing myself to death when the poofy blue heart waved out from the impact zone. Christ in diapers, what a glorious show.
Wet Hot American Bummer is especially impressive because the original script had a sizable role for Nick Zano, which had to be very hastily rewritten when his daughter was born with surgery-requiring complications. It’s so seamless you’d never know this was an issue.
It’s been a while and I still can’t believe I got to witness this with my own two eyes.
