If it were an unbiased third-party with no stake in portraying the police as heroes? Sure, but Cops ain’t that. Once more plugging this podcast which is not exactly eye-opening but a very good overview of how awful shows like Cops and Live P.D. can be: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/headlong-running-from-cops/id…

The first movie terrified me as a child. The practical effects were just weird and gross enough to stick forever in my memory. This one doesn’t seem quite as willing to go weird as the first adaptation. My wife loves that movie, so I’m curious what she’ll think of this.

Aubrey Plaza but as her character from Legion would have been an inspired choice.

Tomer Capon and the writers infused a character originally written as a joke about French stereotypes into easily my favorite character on the show. This episode was a gift for Frenchie fans, like me. I have said it repeatedly, and I haven’t yet been proven wrong: The Boys has surpassed its source material in every…

Let me go hunting with Artemis!

You don’t really believe it’ll happen.  Despite the high likelihood, the sheer brazenness of the man and his ilk, you still think he’ll manage to evade this. And then it happens, and you don’t know what to think so you head on to the A.V. Club instead of sleeping like a responsible person. 

I genuinely kept expecting him to have a heart attack on stage. Dude looked unwell, even for him.

Fuckin’ Biff Tannen over here damn near soiled himself on stage. It was such an embarrassment. High school elections have more decorum. I’ll be surprised if there’s a second one considering how bad Trump looked up there. Biden looked downright stately compared to Trump, which is wild. I still think Bernie would have…

Seriously, there’s no console controller better for FPS than the Xbox One’s. I’m happy to see they kept it more or less the same. I occasionally try to play a FPS on the PS4, but it feels like I’m controlling a tank. (Don’t get me wrong, I love the PS4 controller for like, RPGs and stuff, but it is not great for…

I play multiple games at once. Sometimes I’ll hop between say, Apex and CoD, but then decide I want to play a game with more substance and boot up a single player game I haven’t quite finished yet. 

To be fair, Ashley’s yelling: “where is Starlight?!” every few minutes, but it’s surprising that she could just...leave like that, right? You’d think Vought would at least assign a tail for one of their biggest assets.

Maybe my favorite episode of the series. It hit almost every one of my sweet spots. Gave me more Frenchie, Kimiko, and MM. Gave me Starlight and Butcher interacting. Gave me some really good special effects. It was a good one.  

I just started Hades yesterday. One thing that I like that might or might not be true is that Zagreus is a bit of a brat, and his family just wants to help him out because they think his dad’s a drip. That’s a perfect set-up for a Greek mythology-inspired game. And it’s fun! I loved Bastion and Transistor, but I…

I love the show (tonight’s episode being maybe a series best) but I cannot imagine how they’ll handle this. Clone High-hijinx? Just straight adapting the Kix stuff?

I hate the “celebrity cameo as x politician” sketches, A.V. Club. I hate them so much. But I guess I can appreciate that they’re at least not saddling the talented cast members with the worst jokes.

:’(

Oh, I gave up.

Catching Hadestown was a highlight of 2019 for me. The wonderful Eva Noblezada and the goddamn perfect Queen Amber Gray stole the show for me. Amber Gray literally throwing herself across the stage like a woman possessed. Perfect. Wife and I were enthralled. (And I say that as someone who maybe, sort of prefers the…
