I’ve had problems with The Orville relying on story crutches in the past but will give NH a chance because there have been interesting and enjoyable moments and it has been a minute since we’ve seen the show; it will seem new but familiar... He has had time to tune up and polish the storyline, so let’s see if it…

I lived and worked as a nurse in the Napa Valley for years—there was a nice burger place, I loved, everyone loved. Any place in the valley you can get reasonably priced tasty homey food will be popular amongst all the excellent but $$$ options. The place got lots of press, rightly so, and became well known. Someone…

Mine did not mind Cayenne—coastal northern Cali squirrels are tough; I had to get Habanero powder (bulk from a place in New Mexico) and that did the trick but gloves, mask and goggles when mixing a batch or.... Oh Here Go Hell Come...

I have a squirrel feeding area with a few types of feeders and seed/corn/peanuts but you always have the nosy ones who come afterwards to raid my bird feeders. The Habanero powder trick in the seed was the answer for me. They didn’t mind the cayenne at all so I had to upgrade!

Right I understand the mechanism, just thought maybe someday had a hack, i.e., lower temp, longer cook time, etc.? Or as with a burger, put a divot in the center and/or rotate? I was looking at recipes yesterday and many listed seem more cake-like and less dense for the Airfryer. Since I have made cakes and other…

I have tried this just to prove someone wrong and it only served to make me look culinarily petty. It had nice flavor and texture plus it made enough to go around with a few extra. But could I do it in the AirFryer? I tried some other cookies and they were too brown on the outside and undercooked inside. Still trying…

All his ability and instinct, and if not for the accidental shooting, it could have been him taking a bullet while distracted from two amateurs. Fuches is getting on my nerves, hoping for a confrontation soon?

I am hoping it smacks him sooner than later. He has got to be brought back down!

Yes me too! I am pretty good, I have great recall for names/faces, with character actors being my speciality. Love that deep unique voice of his. I catch him here and there on network shows, small parts and streaming services. I went over to his IMDB page and his picture is an oldie, with dark hair and that drilling…

I thought the way Hader played the confusion and surprise at her reaction was perfect. She had to scream to get her point across to someone so clueless and inept at interaction.  

I didn’t feel that way to me, not at all—it seems like people are always looking for the comedy in Barry and I see mostly drama with a speck or splash of comedy now and again. His confusion and surprise were very well done. She had to scream at him or he would still be sitting there, stuttering and looking puzzled! I…

He was in Nobody, The Dropout and now and again on network TV but I was just looking at his IMDB page and they show an older picture with the dark hair. Such a great character actor!

Yeah and they both need to be seen more often! 

That was a good recap, I have to agree with most everyone you mentioned! Lyonne did a great job especially as a first timer and game for all kinds of hijinks. Contrast with Gomez last week who had technical skill, and ability but felt low energy for the most part and merely adequate—Lyonne full of sizzle and sass was…

What? No. She did not get overshadowed at all, she came in cold, untested, yet rocked every sketch, never broke, knew her lines, delivered them like a pro, produced genuine laughs. The best thing is she looked like she had a ton of fun. Her ability allowed the other cast members to work with ease, making the last…

And for whatever reason she has a quality. One line from her and the crowd legit laughs. Her face, her delivery, her great vocal range—really underappreciated how quickly her persona can pick a sketch out of ho-hum territory. 

But they always have to be on the lookout for featured players. The nature of the beast is the next_____________ is just waiting out there. There will always be new cast members no matter how crowded the roster. I am the opposite, I like seeing the newbies, think about James Austin Johnson or Sherman, and you can see…

What the what??! I would not have recognized Michael Ironside (though I have seen him in other things lately I still think of him as dark hair, dark eyes, deep voice) but please, please—-more of him! The pitch from Barry to Sally was on point for his character. Other than being a paid assassin, the only things he does…

Very good point about Covid restrictions, though it seems as if the group episodes in a different locale were less concerned with protocols. Hard to say. I really enjoyed the Anthology episodes no matter what the reason, and amused over the realization both tracks are either converging, running simultaneously, or all…

Thank you for taking the time to add the extra scene. I am a fan of the anthology episodes. They are diverse, unique and thought provoking. I enjoyed the group episodes but not nearly as much as the others. The post credit tie-in to the group added another layer. Hope you are correct; I would love to see those two…
