That's because you are: shower beer is the start to a hangover cure, along with a fry-up, a kombucha, and a nap (preferably on a Sunday morning while watching nature documentaries).

I think it can be a fair complaint: yes, a show that depends on mystery and intrigue cannot and should not give the game away early on—however, they need to handle those mysteries and intrigues in a way that makes it clear that there is an endpoint. It can't just be mystery for its own sake, or else I'm going to…

God, I loved her as Marnie on The Hour: she had this sad, intelligent weariness underneath her frivolous exterior, and it hit home that however flighty and simpering she might seem in public, she was not a stupid woman.

I admit, I really enjoyed Peaky Blinders, but that's because I'm a big fan of Cillian Murphy. He does excellent work, and Helen McCrory is a goddamned treasure.

It's definitely within an established mold, and one that hasn't proven itself to be worth such continuous reuse; I'd love to see a period piece about Black people in Georgian England, if we want to go spooky and gritty.

Dogwood.

I can get that. I want something that respects my intelligence more, and gives me a bit more complexity to chew on—if I want something purely entertaining, I have the entirety of Agatha Christie's work at my disposal.

I'm deeply tempted to buy at least the first book for my niece, who's ten and probably just about the right age for them.

As a middle schooler watching, I remember losing my shit at that part—but then, I've always had an unfortunate fondness for puns and wordplay, the sillier the better.

Oh, damn. I did love Master and Commander, and would have loved more movies; as it was, it ended up spurring a love of Napoleonic naval history that led to me reading the whole series of books, Horatio Hornblower (tv series and novels), and my sister's decision to get a master's degree in British history during the…

I totally agree with this, but hot damn is the first season going to be some soapy, box-wine fun!

Nothing like some good old hotep nonsense to start the day! (Signed, bisexual black lady who dates a lot of white dudes)

Biracial woman here (Black/White). I mostly tend to date white guys, and while I've occasionally gotten some shit for it (usually from Black dudes), I remind myself that there are only certain people from whom I'm willing to accept criticism. If they aren't one of those people, I point out that if they want to promote…

Finally, someone has realized they need to keep a flash drive in the lifeboat. It only took the entire front half of the season, but we got there.

Re: 5, I was kinda hoping that Rufus would get to go full Nat Turner/John Brown on all those white people. It would be ultimate wish-fulfillment after hearing Rittenhouse natter on about skull shapes.
Also, pleased to see Flynn thought excluding Rufus was bullshit. I would love to see the two of them interact more,…

Exactly! After her scenes at Chilton, I felt sure we were going to find out she was pregnant again and that she and Doyle would reconcile.

It is the darkest timeline.

I have this little headcanon that the two of them actually do hang out semi-regularly; April probably mentioned to Luke that she was planning to buy a ticket to visit Jess when her work-study paycheck hit, and he decided that he would just pay for her to go see her cousin, and the two of them became friends. He helps…

She has more to her than Graham. Don't get me wrong, I loved her in GG and Parenthood, but Sutton Foster has this incredible magnetism and depth.

I'd hang out with the 30somethings: bowling and milkshakes and movie nights are all delightful! Plus, Ginny!
