It’s as if it was designed to fill the role previously played by Bosch on the Prime Video roster: enjoyable comfort viewing based on a long-running book series, plenty of action, nothing too taxing on the ol’ brain cells.

He’s not a baby; he’s a slender, silver-haired man in his late 60s.

I mean, that was how I read the mom not wanting to call the cops, too. It just feels weird they wouldn’t have the cops mention Rue’s race and say something about her matching the description for some other suspect as a way of hammering things home for folks who aren’t explicitly looking for that sort of subtext.

I thought they were his grandma’s--although I didn’t realize she was still alive?

I do think it’s possible to read that way—although frankly, having that many units to chase a running teenager who doesn’t have a weapon and hasn’t (as far as they know) committed a crime is wildly implausible regardless of the person’s race. It just seems like something the show should have been way more intentional…

i was yelling in my head that i wish she’d tell her mom about why she needs the suitcase so badly but i assume they all already know from elliot.

Personally, I was struck by the resemblance between the puppet and its creator. Especially around the nose and mouth.

I was tricked into drinking a different, supposedly better hard seltzer because Founders made it, and your instincts are right—they are absolutely disgusting.

I’m so fascinated with the weird ways Euphoria does and doesn’t engage with class signifiers. Like, Rue, Fez, Cassie, and Lexi all live in homes that are notably old/out of date—but if you take the time to look up Lexi’s actual clothes (because she’s had some great sweaters this season), they’re some of the most…

My read has been that Jules suspects what’s going on on a subconscious level but is in denial herself/afraid to call it out due to her own codependency/mental health issues.

I saw someone on the Internet speculate that the type of high octane drug use/partying is more typical for Millennials like Levinson, which feels generally accurate. Although the gender/social media stuff makes it more Gen Z/late Millennial...

Rue, Jules, and Elliot decide to steal beer from a local convenience store

The author is dead. Long live the Internet commenter.

I’m ambivalent. I ended up really liking The Nevers , which I absolutely expected to hate.

Perhaps more importantly—Edgar Allan Poe is known for “The Raven.” The Crow is an entirely different story.

Oh, fuck—I didn’t watch Minari while I had two months of $0.99 Showtime for Yellowjackets on Amazon.

“Are you willing to pay premium streaming/cable prices for Masterpiece Theater-quality television? If so, The Gilded Age might be for you.”

I keep waiting for the day Hollywood stops buying the AA/NA model of substance disorders hook, line, and sinker.

him = the friend I was introducing to Euphoria, ugh late night comments

I was never interested in Downton Abbey even a tiny little bit. But I would watch this for Carrie Coon alone, and now that I know Taissa Farmiga is the daughter, I am sold.
