It’s like Dr. Who, but instead it’s dozens of Latino Luigis.

But there are many shows these days that show diverse characters in a positive light. Why is it an issue that this particular show does not?

How about we don’t overthink it, and race wasn’t a factor.. some random people of random backgrounds did some stuff to Pamela Anderson in this show

Yea, if you don’t follow the ins and outs of Taylor Swift, but only know she started in Nashville and co-wrote two albums with Aaron Dessner, one might assume she doesn’t write her own songs. I don’t think Albarn was intentionally lying or trying to throw shade, just incorrectly assuming.

Side note.. I think it’s kinda

Also sad in this instance: During the CNN New Year’s Eve special last month, Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen were cutting away to random celebrities all night to see how they were celebrating, and they cut to Regina King’s house, and she brought her son onscreen (and his boyfriend I think? she called his companion her ‘

I’m sure that was intentional by the writers and will come back to haunt them..

I didn’t even think of it as Jackie’s dream; they distinctly showed Shauna waking up right after.

Thank you for this post. Couple quick thoughts.. I thought Misty said “see you later, girls” as some sort of sarcastic remark to coworkers she knew didn’t like her? Maybe I’m wrong.

Also, the “Cult of Lottie” is giving me strong “Guilty Remnant” from “Leftovers” vibes.. survivors out for blood/revenge/something

The creators of the show actually dropped a couple major “answers” in a Vulture interview from a couple days ago:

1) Jackie is definitely dead, not “maybe, sorta”; they envisioned Shauna continuing entries in her diary after returning home, so that’s why movies listed post-1996 were there; and they had no idea people

Counterpoint: Yes

I think people are overstating Juliette Lewis’ anger at the scripts. She seemed annoyed but not “I’m quitting!” annoyed. I mean, she’s on the most talked-about show of the season, likely to see many acting awards thrown her way. And she just got back on twitter, so that’s fun too. Why would she leave..

Melanie Lynskey actually tweeted this weekend: “In tonight’s episode Warren Kole delivers my favorite line of the season.” I assume it had to be “Wait, there’s no book club?!”

Scream 3

Also as a side note, I found the production design of the series so refreshing, tactile, and real. Unlike so many streaming shows (And Just Like That, Morning Show, etc.) there were no shitty outdoor green screens, no obviously fake driving scenes, no indoor setpieces that looked like sets. The show was clearly filmed

She’s definitely next-level rich from having married (and been widowed by) Big. Just selling the apartment they shared after he died would have her set for life.

I feel like the writers are definitely (and quite obviously, though not incorrectly) addressing common complaints of the original series: a) their version of

It only seems “obvious” because Shauna would’ve thought of it before this, or at least before bursting in and asking who he *really* was.

Juliette Lewis is killing it too. Her freakouts in the hotel room reminded me of her 1994 “Come to My Window” music video for Melissa Etheridge, where she was also flailing about and chasing demons while stuck in a small room.

They’re definitely making a strong case for Jackie being the one who everyone has a reason to hate, and thus dies in the first episode’s animal ceremony.

I remember James Pickens from the 90210 beach club and a Roseanne poker buddy. Great actor.

I truly miss the Year in band Names.
