Just looked this up.

Can't believe they dropped the Consider Phlebas/The Culture adaptation for this.

“no thanks"? That's weird level of entitlement.

“teenage boy who was massively obsessed with trying to get laid even though his friends fared better with girls”

Dont know BE's history or family tbf but yeah that would make a difference.

Seems a bit silly to compare a 19 year old singing about how a venture they once enjoyed is lucrative but not fun and a 25 year old saying their teenage bullshit was bullshit but lucrative.

Absolute top tier SP episode. Up there with Stanley’s Cup, Imaginationland and the season that skewers gentrification.

I think it's because Marvel had proved it ability to make successful movies before they were totally acquired by Disney whereas with SW there hadnt been a good movie since 83.

Donne Yen putting his faith to the test and running through laser fire to the control panel while chanting his mantra “I am one with the Force the and the Force is with me” is pure fucking cinema.

She raped a child. That's not Bourdain being in an unhealthy relationship that being intimately involved with paedophile whos victim you gave money to (while not knowing they were a victim). It's certainly a major driver for what happened and if it was gender flipped no one would have a problem laying a large share of…

I support this for weed absolutely but you haven’t in your post factored in the manufacturing and exporting side of the distribution when it comes to coke. Now I love the idea of the US having a bunch of biomes set up for coca production but realistically legalising or decriminaliing cocaine in the UK or US will not…

Huzzah. Cage is the best actor working today.

Nicely done.

Yeah this show is incredibly funny and well written. It makes me think I should revisit I Think You Should leave cus the first ep of that left me totally cold.
