It actually is fairly obvious. There are a bunch of Netflix originals that basically no one watches. Netflix cares about how much conversation a show can generate, not how many actual viewers it gets. But if those raw numbers were released it would be pretty embarrassing for them.

If you actually think this is a spoiler you didn’t finish S1. And maybe just stop using the internet if you’re that fragile.

That tune, “Assume the Position” I believe, has been over the end credits of the last 4(??) episodes on my copies. It’s an 00s Baltimore track that was also featured on The Wire so I have no idea what it’s doing on this show or why it’s been on so many eps.

What confuses me is why didn’t Barb’s parents show up?

Dustin has a great actor but I kind of wish Lucas had found the monster. It’s brazenly hypocritical to dish out some truth on how the only black Ghostbuster sucked and then give your own token black character absolutely nothing to do.

That’s sick

Shit you’re right, it is her mum’s book. Missed that bit.

Give me a f**cking break.

It’s totally crazy how actually being on stage can completely change your emotional reaction. I recently performed a musical piece inspired by my Jewish families history in WWII, and when reading the introduction I started to choke in a way that had never happened in rehearsal. It feels like an out of body experience.

Thus show is much more stylised than The Wire. Which there’s nothing wrong with of course, but with only 8 episodes a season and only 3 seasons planned, I’m not expecting it to ever get as deep as that show. Remember how much depth The Wire lost when they had to cut down S5 from 13 to 10 episodes? I’m happy thinking…

Pretty sure all the Christians in the Simpsons just talk about there being a heaven for good people and a hell for bad people. That’s where I got my theology from growing up!

That would certainly be an interesting approach, though I think it is both too dark for a Michael Schur show and too much of an outright rejection of Christian theology for American network television. I don’t think we know enough about the show’s mythology to theorise quite yet. There is clearly some sort of big…

Wait, are we not still mad at Colbert?

This is exactly why the concept of heaven and hell has always seemed ethically corrupt to me. Is it Eleanor and Tahini’s fault that their family were tools? No. Sure, they could have rised above their upbringing. But it is, in my opinion, deeply unfair to expect them to. I just can’t imagine a truly just God being so…

The writing in this episode was quite weak in general, in my opinion. Previous two episodes had lots of hilarious Jason moments but here he was flat.

It’s pretty disappointing that you won’t even be able to download your purchases anymore. Nintendo has made some good moves this year but their boneheaded unwillingness to unify the Virtual Console platform across their consoles is pretty unforgivably stupid. I probably bought about 30 VC games on the Wii, and if I…

Obviously the origins of that porno were all I could think about in that scene. I knew that woman’s hair was too perfectly placed over her chest for it to be real!

Ehhh... The tone was flat, the direction was listess, and, for 1 and a half hours spent watching people talk while a set went bump every five minutes, the ethical and cultural issues presented weren’t actually discussed or resolved in an interesting fashion at all. But thankfully here in Australia it’s very easy to…

It’s still going down the same path, so probably not, no.

Maybe try using incognito mode to get around the watch time limit
