Perhaps now they can actually adapt the book and not the bloated, nonsensical mess we got for season 1. Ian mcshane deserves a better show.

In that case can we have a Mr Nancy whose characterisation bears more than a 5% similarity to his book counterpart, put Laura in the background on her own journey where she belongs and most importantly fix the tone of the show, which is so bloody mistranslated? The source material is so good, what Fuller did with it.…
Because Allison Janney is really fucking amazing in it? It also reveals a lot about how America really is and domestic abuse is handed down generationally. On top of all of that it’s darkly funny.
Kerrigan was always really awful. She was never gracious and, while a great skater, was bad with PR. Not justifying anything that happened to her, but she was pretty hate-able. She also married her much older agent who left his wife for her (which always seemed like a possible abuse situation to me). I say this as a…
Yeah, I’ve been wondering, since I grew up as a poor, but it seems to me there’s a lot of stupid motherfuckers walking around with Ivy League degrees. The Trumps, Kushner.... do you even have to do anything at an Ivy League school? See, at my poor ass state school, if you didn’t turn in your work or show up, you…
My parents lived near that building 50 years ago and my mom was OBSESSED with trying to spot her. Then one day, my mom was pushing my brother in a baby carriage and Greta Garbo was walking towards them. As she passed my mom, she said, “you’re baby is beautiful”.
Yeah, the fact that Wolff had audio recordings is fabulous. He absolutely knew that all of those assholes would deny what he said and call it trash; so he took out an insurance policy in the form of audio recordings.
Cease and desist letter you say?
You just know there had to be backup for the juiciest stuff given the degree to which Wolff/Holt would be sticking their necks legally out otherwise.
I agreed with you until earlier today when it came out that Wolff has audio tapes of almost every conversation in question and on the subject of “How would you know what Bannon said to Ailes at a dinner party?” the response was “The dinner party was at my house.”.
Exactly. I think people have forgotten that sometimes you should feel bad. If you’ve abused someone, you absolutely should feel bad and, honestly, I’ll say you should feel bad forever. And be thankful that you feel bad, as a reminder to never abuse someone again. Be thankful that you feel bad as a testament that…
No. The problem is not that girls are normal young people who want relationships. That is normal for human beings. The problem isn’t that girls just need to work harder on their self esteem. The problem is THE BOYS. THE MEN. What our society is teaching them, as well as girls, about what boys and men are owed, what…
Yep. Younger people tend to forget they were born into this world that was shaped by people of Cher’s generation. People who had to fight to get where we are today, people who held racist, sexist, homophobic views who have changed with exposure and education. Hell not even just Cher’s lifetime. In my lifetime. Just…
I know nothing about this. Please let us know what you mean.
Off topic, but relevant. If you watch Friends and think of them all as young Republicans it makes sense they’re so selfish and end up marrying each other. 90's West Village would be like “huh go away”. Even the people they date fall into young Republican category mainly. Also, and obviously LA writing about NYC, but…
You could tell me poor migrant children are being abducted by Ivanka herself and sent to factories where they’re forced to make her jewelry in exchange for food and water and all I’ll say is, “Yeah, that seems about right.”
Just because you’re “rich” doesn’t mean you have tons of disposable income, if you’re living in an expensive place and have high payments on expensive things, like rent in Midtown Manhattan or insurance on three Ferraris. But you have the means by which to acquire three Ferraris and living space in Midtown Manhattan,…
That you think you are rich because you work harder than people who are poor shows how little you understand about how the world works.
A two hundred dollar computer gifted to me by a dozen people is not an extravagance. A telephone is not an extravagance.
