I consider next week a return to form.

The review is right on the money that the National Treasure parody is worrying. It’s like, “let’s do a random spoof just because”, but instead of satirizing current shit (even allowing some delay to factor the production time of an animated show that’s not South Park), they looked around in the writers room and saw an

Now when it’s dumb, it’s Family Guy dumb. Something that even The Simpsons at its worst never became (it became bad in a different way), let alone Futurama.

Yeah, I meant to write his father.

I think the “high school hierarchy” trope stemmed from the whole thing being a riff on ‘80s teen movies, where that trope played very heavily.

Tuca and Bertie had another good episode

1. I watched the first season and I HATED it with the fire of a thousand suns. You can find my comments on that board, especially about the plot-holes-ridden finale. In general, it was a pedestrian, “for fans only”, novelty show, while Lisey’s Story was a very refined and ethereal work, both visually and (some gripes

I did like this series quite a bit (I could say it’s the best filmed project King ever got involved with, but that’d be faint praise), if perhaps not entirely for the same reasons as you. For one, I though the Montage of Love was corny as hell. But I also deeply, fiercely dislike and dismiss as overlong perfume

It’s also possible it’s not King’s idea, and it came from Larraín or even a visual designer from the SFX department. Unless it’s also in the book, but from other comments, I’m gathering the Long Boy is described differently in the book.

either Loki and Sylvie take over for him and run the TVA and keep the sacred timeline in place or they kill him and let the multiverse grow unfettered

I found unbelievable was the all-knowing Kang variant thinking his plot would ever work

I think what most spelled The Tomorrow War to me was the queen being different from the males, and the males swarming to save her and being mowed down by the humans, to no avail.

I come from the future (aka the Canadian leak of Episode 7). I have a message for all Rick and Morty viewers of the past: don’t lose hope! Have faith in the giant space incest baby! It was significant all along!

For sure, but it felt like a parody of how The Tomorrow War was derivative.

I don’t know. If she’s really used to have THIS degree of casual sex (the Eyes Wide Shut type, not the American Pie type), then it should be more of an issue. She’s, what, 16?

No way June was allowed or willing to go back to Gilead even for five minutes at this stage. Maybe it was some kind of no man’s land.

Cool! But did King actually confirm it was his intention?

I know it’s probably logistically impossible, but didn’t this episode have a The Tomorrow War parody feel to it? Maybe it’s because I just saw the movie, and both sucked.

If it keeps getting worse from there, it might circle back to interesting.

Summer making a joke about Nancy Reagan was screaming REALLY loud “This is written by a 50-year-old man”.
