I’ve seen it in canned fruit salads.

I don’t think so? I’ve mostly been on the mid-atlantic coast.

I forgot about that. Although, I guess that could be part of the facade of Richard going rogue (even though he really did).

I think this is what they intended, but I think in their rush to have the shock of Richard’s death, they left out the part where he actually complied. So, as a non-ominpotent viewer, it seemed like Morgan did it out of rage, and then covered his tracks with Richard’s plan. The more I thought about it, the more I began…

I have never had cantaloupe that didn’t taste like it went bad two weeks ago. They were my dad’s favorite and we always had them in the house. The very smell makes me nauseated.

I got that the return trip for one melon was lesson-teaching. I still think the Saviors would want more for their time than just 12 fruit. I could see, for example if they said, “Next drop, we want 12 melons and whatever else you can scrounge up that pleases us.” You’re still lording your power over them, but you have…

I’m not even kidding: The cantaloupes were such a distraction for me because I kept waiting for the catch — that there was some specific reason the drop was so small that would be a key plot issue.

Rosita also insists on blaming literaly everyone else for why her plan went sideways instead of noticing that it was a terrible, terrible plan. This character has gotten completely unsympathetic and really dumb -- she wasn’t always this bad.

Even actual doctors don’t necessarily know much about other specialties beyond the very basics. I have a few doctor friends and every so often I will ask one of them about some random medical thing in conversation, say, asking my friend whoi is a GP about some dental treatment I just read about and the response is…

Yup. My sense was he was trying to get her to acknowledge that “Yup. Something’s wrong here,” before he actually interrupted the show to ask, but she didn’t notice what he did and just blurted out the name and then there wasn’t much he could do.

I’m just guessing, obviously, but the “Best Actress” part is smaller and at the bottom. I question whether an old man who is not wearing his glasses could read that part. Plus, he’s expecting it to say the name of the Best Film award and with that “fact” as the default in his mind, it may not have occurred to him that…

To be fair, I feel like you could pick any random person off the street and there’s a 90% chance they would be a better president than Trump. Most of the homeless guys in my ‘hood would be better, if only because they would at least acknowledge they are in over their heads and listen to more experienced people.

In all seriousness, I think he probably didn’t want it to seem like this was one of his pranks, and bringing the Damon feud into it would make it seem like they had planned it. It was the right call under the circumstances, even if it was the less amusing one.

I’d vote for him. He gets shit done.

I’m not sure he knew *what* was wrong — just that something with the card was off and WTF do I do if the card is not 100% accurate?

The Jez article by Rich? Because he is being ripped to shreds in the comments -- rightfuly so -- for basically painting the La La Land folks as the bad guys here when they were put in an unwinnable position through no fault of their own.

Right. He clearly is aware that something is amiss, but I don’t think he knows what — does he have the wrong card, did the card mistakenly have the actress’ name instead of the producers, is something else going on? He sees it’s not fully correct, but isn’t sure *what* is wrong, so he stalls for time and tries to get…

Kimmel is a prankster, but he would not do this unless he wanted to make sure his turn hosting the Oscars was known for a massive, humiliating Flub of All Flubs, thus ensuring he never gets another hosting gig.

You expect more from Jez?

Yeah, he was the epitome of class, grace and professionalism at a moment that must have been very emotional and confusing for him. No dithering about hoping the news turns back in your favor or whatever (which, if I’m being honest is probably what I would have done). He saw it was wrong and he was ON IT.
