To be fair, Brett Kavanaugh is on the Supreme Court and had all his debt paid off. 

Heck yes, I love this ludicrous nonsense show. Good on you, Netflix!

And, here’s the thing. He did, long before he started guest-hosting.

Here’s the other thing.
We’ve heard now that Richards was involved in selecting which clips got shown to the decision-makers... How involved was he in the focus group process, where “the succession plan started unraveling”? I mean, it sounds like…

Baffling to me that Jennings nixed himself out of the running (and rightfully so, in my opinion) but Richards/Bialik, with all their obvious baggage, were not. Bialik’s trash is out there for the world to see and Richards’ required only a cursory amount of investigative work.

Exactly. It also buys into the regressive assumption that a female pop star’s male producer is responsible for the quality of her work. Usually it cuts the other way with the producer getting credit for successes, but “it’s Jack Antonoff’s fault these pop albums aren’t good” is just as crummy.

Someone leaked a draft of his acceptance speech:

According to this NYT interview with co-producer/writer Hudes (along with Miranda and director Jon M. Chu), Miranda was playing that character to save that shaved-ice song, which was going to be cut.

He actually gave himself a major downgrade this time, as he played Usnavi in the stage version.

What did you think Baby Driver lacked? I can’t conceive of anything the trailer could have overpromised on that wasn’t in the end product.

Regina King and Watchmen beg to differ.
If they’re actually committed, they’ll do what they just did with James Gunn, get the talent and leave them the hell alone.

My grandfather was Romani. I am past getting too pissed when people call us Gypsies, although it is outdated and is drenched with hate and racism in countries with significant Romani minorities - even though the name originally comes from the mistaken notion that Roma are originally from Egypt.  But watch out if you…

I call bs. The only people I’ve ever seen hold their fingers like that to signify anything were white supremacists in the past 4-5 years. Anyone holding up 3 fingers to show 3 of anything does it the usual way... the way that he was doing it the first 2 times.

I visited his FB page, and his friends’ FB pages (before they started scrubbing), and I’m sorry to say, “paranoid doesn’t mean you’re wrong”.

A:  no, they fucking don’t. B: he has a history of flashing the WP sign and posting others doing it on his FB page. He donated to Trump multiple times, and had pics of he and his wife wearing MAGA hats (he has since locked down his social media). AND he let slide a racial slur without even blinking.  He’s a racist…

Yeah, but there’s still something extremely sketch about his “apology”...in that I’m sure he doesn’t want to lose his job, but his entire FB got scrubbed in sus speed.

I disagree; I think Caviezel is underrated in his performance. Yes, he’s wooden. But his small gestures are powerful: in particular, he provides a lot of deadpan humour (that most actors in that role would oversell), and he also brings an affecting level of pathos a lot of the time (though I’d agree that it works best…

I assume, given the poster’s name, he’s trolling. Because of course it’s the exact opposite of copaganda: not only are the cops themselves mostly depicted as corrupt murderers, but the whole show is filled with paranoia about civil liberties and law enforcement overreach.

User-comment synergy: the Finch/Reese symbiotic partnership IS The Real Batman... it may be the best TV depiction of a version of the Batman story.

The thing that struck me on a rewatch was: even when it was being a dumb procedural, it was actually really good!

Henson and then Shahi for me. That show was great for strong women.
