Della said something like, “how’re the hands of x tonight?” Which I took to assume that she’s a hand model. It was during her introduction but they haven’t really gone too deep into Hazel’s backstory. I like her, though. She’s cool. 

I’ve read ‘em! The first run is often guilty of what I call “first comic book syndrome.” He throws a lot at the wall and not all of it sticks. But Way’s got a wild imagination, and it’s been nice to see him grow as a writer. Loved most of what he was doing with his DC imprint Young Animal a few years ago. Dallas is…

It depends on the gameplay and context. Something like Wolfenstein or Doom? Yeah, let’s go. It makes sense for demons (or cyborg Nazis) to be bullet sponges, and it’s satisfying to take them down. Or, hell, an action RPG with combos and chain options can be a lot of fun on hard. I played through a lot of FFVII: Remake…

No, see, it’s all part of the marketing. The release schedule is moving backwards in time.

I’m a fan of 1989, which, hot take, I think is her most cohesive work. It’s the one album that hit the best balance between her Country Music-Journal lyricism and pop stylings. And I like when she does the little “chk!” sound on Blank Check—that’s fun. I’m not sure if this album hits quite that synthesis or balance.…

Wait, yeah? I’m very into this idea. Title’s a little “Syfy Original Movie” for my taste, but I have long wanted to “see” the conjunction of the spheres, which is such a baller name for the phenomenon.

you know what i miss

God, this song. High school me is haunted.

You might dig Stumptown on ABC. It has some of what you’re looking for. It’s Coby Smulders as a vet-with-PTSD-turned-P.I. who spends the majority of her cases actively trying to help people. She’s got some anger and alcohol issues, but the character ultimately is very much here trying to “solve the case/help the right…

Della’s girlfriend and Pete being on friendly terms is nice, and it sets up that they’d been a “law office” for at least a few weeks by then. Subtle, efficient storytelling. “See you, Gloves.”

One, thank God this show’s getting a second season. The cast is firing on all cylinders, and it’s a joy to watch them. For a second, I thought they were going to bring in the “ghost of E.B.” with Perry in the car, but I much, much preferred it being Perry’s imitation of him. “You can’t prosecute from the defense table!…

Used to watch Regis on TV all the time as a kid. What a legend, RIP. 

Good point!

It’s been so fun to watch her in Glow. She’s great. 

I’m so-so on Scott Pilgrim as a franchise for several reasons. (He says after recently changing his avatar of Ramona Flowers because this picture is perfect for 2020.) But I also think this movie fucking rules. It’s such a lightning-in-a-bottle synthesis of music, mood, and action. Don’t know of any other movie that…

A:TLA is perfect. Korra is a refinement of the action, animation, and worldbuilding while not nearly as fun; it suffers from Boruto and Star Wars-sequels syndrome. It’s set so closely to the previous series that I kept asking “what about the old characters? tell me about them” throughout because there’s still the…

Googled it out of curiosity...and, wow, yeah, this is a journey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Immortal_(fan_fiction)#2017:_Rose_Christo_co-authorship_claim

I have a Fire TV, and it’s equally frustrating. Like, Roku and the Fire TVs are the largest streaming devices, and...they just couldn’t come to a deal? I see that Peacock’s going through the same thing, and even though I don’t much care for that service—it’s frustrating to not be able to access the content that I’m…

I would be totally fine with it being a comics-first app. Its catalog is impressive, and I’ve been catching up on a lot of comics that I missed that way. I do hope it keeps its DC-branded films/TV shows on there, even if maybe they premiere on HBO Max first or something. I can’t access HBO Max on my TV (because I use…

Interested in the Nathan Fillion panel. One, he’s a delight to watch in interviews. His recent interview with Joel McHale and Ken Jeong for the Darkest Timeline was a treat. He talked about his scuba hobby, his upbringing, etc. But I’m also a fan of The Rookie—even as I understand that it’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine-style…
