There also has to be a knowing or actively negligent misstatement of fact. There’s nothing legally actionable about the factually accurate statement that a certain group of actors costarred on the show, distasteful though it may be in this context.

Libel cases are very hard to win in the US. They have to show actual damages due to what the AVClub said about them and this site is only read by like twenty of us losers

That son of a bitch knows what he did.

“who would have been between 15 and 21 years old at the time of the incident”

I was gonna say the same thing.  Dozens of people work on a TV show.  Why assume it was one of the co-stars?

He didn’t reveal who those “certain people” (plural!) actually were and it seems unlikely that he will in the future, but for the record, his co-stars for the majority of the show were Bryan Cranston, Justin Berfield, Erik Per Sullivan, Jane Kaczmarek, and Christopher Masterson.

I dig these points. Star for you.

I did a quick google and one early response to Confederate was “two white showrunners envision modern day slavery fanfic.... um” - That’s fair criticism in my book.

Neuralink, duh!

Colin Trevorrow was on the way to the moon until whatever the hell that was that got into him.

I’m just here to express a pet peeve. The word frunk is stupid. A word already exists for this and it’s bonnet.

So we’re just forgetting “Confederate” happened? Because that was their first big thing after leaving GoT, and if not for a certain “very stable genius” somehow blundering his way into 1600, may have gotten filmed.

I got the sense for awhile, post-ST, that Disney was floating all these names and soliciting scripts in order to gauge crowd reaction and see what was the safest bet to go forward. Patty Jenkins was doing something on the strength of WW... until WW84 flopped and then she was out. Benioff and Weiss were doing something…

Benioff and Weiss are the “creators” of 3 Body Problem now? I’m sure that’ll come as a big surprise to Liu Cixin, given that he wrote the original novel 16 years ago.

Imagine being such a Tesla/Elon fanboy that you’re willing to risk your OWN FINGERS to try to pwn the haters. That’s borderline Jonestown stuff right there.

So? With safe and reliable Full Self Driving, who needs fingers?

I hate to give credit to disney, but they were smart enough to recognize that Benioff is a fraud. Netflix not so much!

Grammar police and a phallic joke all in one comment? It’s a shame this site only let’s me grant you one star for your achievements 

You’re blaming the design of Tesla Cybertruck?!? What about blaming the poor design of fingers that allows them to be chopped off as easily as carrots?
