Well, of course I know him.
He's me.

He’s been in a ton of stuff, but most folks would recognize him from Slumdog Millionaire or Life of Pi. I think he’s in the recent Jurassic Parks too.

Aaron Paul is great and so are many other performances but the story veers between entertaining nonsense (last ep) and boring nonsense (this ep) every week imo

Season finale was a surprisingly badly made Breaking Bad / Veronica Mars crossover though.

I watched the first episode and I get what they're going for but I can't shake the feeling that I would like it more if it was more of a traditional show rather than an animated podcast.

I think the thing that made me stop is it that the dialogue and the action/setting are so different from each other. Like who shoots the poo poo so casually during a zombie apocalypse?

A good Irrfan Khan movie is Maqbool, which is an adaptation of Macbeth set in the modern-day (well, modern as in 15 years ago when it was made) criminal underworld of Mumbai. Khan plays the Macbeth equivalent. It's one of the my favorite "modern-day Shakespeare" adaptations.

BCS starts on the same level as the end of breaking bad and gets better. I’m a fair bit behind because it stresses me out, though- I’m waiting for it to end so I can blow through it all at once. Waiting for the next episode drove me nuts.

We just finished S4 of BCS last night and saw the first 2 episodes of S5. Season 6 is probably a long time off (gently caress you virus) and it will be hard to not just blow through this season. But dammit, I need more Kim Wexler!

Same, it was a lot of fun. Which did you see? I saw No Retreat No Surrender.

Emily was a side character for most of it, but they made up an excuse to switch Joel out for her to riff at one point and it was good. Solid cast.

I have tickets for a local horror convention. It was initially March 20th, but was rescheduled for May 22nd, I feel like that's not going to happen.

My vacation was WrestleMania. I also have half season tickets for an MLS team that hasn't kicked a ball on home soil. Hockey tickets that are in limbo. Adam Sandler who is now officially cancelled. I don't usually have tons going on, but boy did I have a lot going on in a small window of time that all got screwed.

The one thing I have left which I've got my fingers crossed because I need something to look forward to is The Fest in Gainesville right as October crosses into November. Please please please can people just loving behave themselves so that happens, ktnx.

Ugh that definitely sucks. The good thing about Mania being cancelled early was the tickets (thru TM) kinda started the process of being refunded before everyone started getting really lovely about giving money back. I'm only out $100 so far, which isn't the end of the world but would happily pay a bill or two.

Me crush ass to dust

In the last few seasons of The Good Wife two of the lead actors refused to be on the same set together so they used CGI to put them together for a scene. They should do that to film some shows. Maybe actors can just record themselves at home on a green screen. I want to continue watching normal shows and the last thing I want is something about social distancing like Netflix announced.

This is really, really good so far!

Honestly the worst thing about it is probably Netflix's localization of Korean stuff is always kinda weird, but, as a Netflix show, this (and Kingdom) both seem much better on that front than the stuff they just license to redistribute.

Has this ever been sourced or confirmed? I know there were tabloid reports that Archie Panjabi and Julianne Margulies had occasional issues, and Margulies has refused to be on The Good Fight because CBS keeps offering her peanuts for doing a week's worth of work.

It's been confirmed. Basically Margulies got upset that Archie Panjabi was getting as much or more praise than her so she basically froze her out and they never filmed a scene together after like season 2.

Also The Good Fight thing was because Margulies wanted to continue on her pay scale from the last season of The Good Wife ie make a fuckload of money for a 3 episode story arc.
