The way Carden plays Janet turning “kill me” into a chant was amazing.

From what I understand, Season 2 is essentially covering up to the election of Harold Wilson in 1964, meaning that the first two seasons of the show will have only covered about 13 years (S1E1 opens with the Queen’s marriage, but then jumps ahead and the main action begins shortly before the death of George VI).…

Way too much stuff happened in the early 1960s for the series to skip over it (e.g., Margaret’s marriage, a bunch more kids arriving, the Profumo Affair).

Out of curiosity, I looked up Andi Mack, and this was the Wikipedia plot description:

Petsch had Morgan as a guest on one of her YouTube videos where they talk about how they met, the audition process, etc., for those interested:

Vanessa Morgan (Toni) auditioned for Josie originally and became close friends with Madelaine Petsch in the process, so it’s great for the two of them that she ended up on the show roundaboutly (particularly for Morgan, of course, since she gets paid now). They’re clearly at least teasing the idea that she’ll be a…

It’s easy to identify the part that Clooney added, because it features black people and attempts to examine racial issues, two things the Coen Brothers have no interest in whatsoever.

I began the month by finishing J.Y. Yang’s two just-released novellas, The Black Tides of Heaven and The Red Threads of Fortune, high fantasy stories in an Asian-inspired reality. Some of the promotional materials suggest these can be read in any order, but I can’t understand that, as Black should clearly come before R…

Let’s see if Abby’s second stab at rescuing a prostitute from the streets works better than the first one.

“Holy Spirit” is the more typical phrasing. It’s the most mystical aspect of the Trinity, generally.

His media strategy throughout this scandal has been bafflingly inept. He swings between kind-of apologizing and asking for another chance, and denying that he did anything wrong, often in the same statement.

Rogelio triumphantly pulling the wig off and telling Fabian to say hello to his grandmother was a Top 10 Rogelio moment. For a while there I wasn’t sure why the previouslies made a point of bringing up the existence of Fabian’s grandmother.

That must be a near-record in terms of the number of songs in one episode.

I originally thought they might have it that Veronica’s dad was white and her mother was Latina, which would explain the family name.

Well, I could see it being a thing in Norway in winter.

You can understand Archie being afflicted with PTSD flashbacks to the show’s worst plotline.

The long-awaited debut of Midge! Uh, okay, bye Midge.

Though they mispronounce “Niger”. It’s “nee-jair”.

The whole almost-marrying-Adam-at-18 thing feels like a pretty big addition to Jane’s backstory to come along at this point in the show, but I love the stylistic conceit of Adam having his own narrator/series style, like he’s been the hero of his own separate show.

With this show’s deliberately stylized era, I wouldn’t be surprised if they had witch trials in Riverdale in the 1940s.
