Every time he dragged Agents’ set design, I just thought “Do you seriously not think you’ve made your point about this by now?”

It always baffled me why Sava reviewed these superhero shows. He seemed to hate all that he reviewed. And he loved to bag on these shows, which remember all had a production budget of $12, about their set design, with Agents of SHIELD frequently taken to task for their inadequate set dressing. The only one he…

Cost of healthcare is probably the #1 driver of the odd disparity of USA being relatively wealthy, yet not being among the top life expectancy countries. The 1% get the best care, while the rest get mediocre coverage, if any. I’m sure there are people out there dying because they can’t afford their insulin or cancer…

Someone might have already said this, but just in case: it’s on Tubi for free. I just had a Fact or Fiction marathon this weekend, it was great.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of James Caan

Yup it’s the TV equivalent of the death of the mid budget movie. Everything’s prestige or trash, with very limited selections in between.

I get that being controversial is a thing. “Kids these days, they’d never be able to make Blazing Saddles today.” Hey edgy, cutting edge. Mmm mmm good.

“And this is [showrunner] Michael [Patrick King]’s baby. He created this role. He wrote it. Those are his and his writing team’s jokes.”
