I wonder this every year when we resubscribe to HBO Now, formerly for Game of Thrones, and in the future for ... I dunno, probably something, and I end up downloading the wrong app.

Parks and Rec where everybody is a member of a vast government conspiracy.

It’s a scene from The One Where The Guys Don’t Make Eye Contact.

WHY DOES HBO HAVE TWO DIRECT TO CONSUMER CHANNELS DISTINCT FROM THEIR APP FOR TELEVISION SUBSCRIBERS?

Holy crap, guys, get your digital strategy crap together. Neither the world, nor your corporate bottom line, benefits from the confusion between HBO Go, HBO Now and, soon, HBO Max.

Sour Patch Tropical is also great.

It would never occur to me that Sour Patch Kids are too intense for someone.

Also, good job getting to this before the LA Times can do this in one of their food ranking pieces.

‘80s nostalgia bit we haven’t see yet:

Mayor Kline returns as a televangelist, complete with an “I have sinned against you” tearful faux apology, and gets a full on Satanic panic going against those meddling kids and their Dungeons & Dragons. (True Detective can’t be the only show to play in that territory.)

Yeah, I think we’re going to get an extended Stephen King riff, with the “you can’t run away from your demons” theme banged on pretty hard and then, at either the 1/2 or 3/4 mark of the next season, they return to Hawkins from Maine.

I think once the books are finished by someone (I don’t think, at the rate he’s going, that we should hold out for A Dream of Spring written by Martin), there will be a quiet rediscovery of the books and articles proclaiming that everyone should “check out the Westeros you only thought you knew.”

Toss in some lavishly

Watching people say one thing and do the opposite is a good start.

He went on to say that the “whole thing made me think about every date I’ve ever been on,” which in turn made him realize, “If this made not just me but other people be more thoughtful, then that’s a good thing, and that’s how I feel about it.”

This feels like the project changed mid-development, but no one was willing or able to call off selling the damn thing for $20.

This also seems like an ideal place for them to have included unused concepts from previous seasons of the show. Surely there are locations, characters and situations we haven’t seen.

I have

I have to imagine they will be debunking that and including that scene in a trailer.

My guess is he’ll weasel out of consequences beyond possibly a tough reelection fight and return for Season 4.

People still live in Columbine, Newtown and San Bernardino. As unthinkable as it might be to outsiders after a major tragedy, those events also bond you to your friends and neighbors.

Right now, people are digging into Ridgecrest and Trona, even as many outsiders think the residents should get the hell out of there.

Depending on how long it takes to go through the process (I have no experience in that regard), the current administration may no longer be an issue.

I understand why she does it, but I don’t know if she’s ever going to heal like this. It’s just all-around awful.

It’s a real mall in Georgia dressed for the show.

They were varying the routes. A later code had things go in a different way. Apparently, they were worried about being spotted. That said, these were dumb Soviets. You don’t wear Soviet uniforms in your secret base on/in American soil, comrades.

Given how they treated the death of Barb in Season 2, I don’t think what happened with the Meat Mind Flayer this season is going to be forgotten. I expect Hawkins to be a very sad, very haunted place next time around.

I think Hopper — who left no ashes — probably jumped through the gate into the Upside Down before Joyce turned the keys, figuring a 0.1 percent chance of survival is still a chance.

The American being Brenner nicely mirrors the space race, which was driven in large part by real world bad guys (Nazi missile scientists)
