Acaster is 7. Looking forward to that season then! Watching 6 right now, the one I said was my least favourite so far, and it’s the one with Liza Tarbuck, Russell Howard, Tim Vine, Alice Levine who is very pretty no matter how much people in the discord shout at me for saying this!!!!!!!! and Asim Chaudhry.

tfw Alice Levine will never call you her little ferret.

logic doesn't track because she looks better now then when she was on seinfeld.

similar to Gillian Anderson some women just age into jaw dropping attractiveness.

Early 90s hair looked rough. She already started looking younger in season 8 and 9 when she started doing it differently.

Rewatching Breaking Bad.

I still don't know why Walt and Jesse insisted on messing with Fring at all. Just make the nice chicken man the meth you promised him and train your replacements, then most likely you can go your separate ways as long as you promise not make a single gram of that poo poo again or talk.

This was kind of the one time it wasn't Walt's pride that did them in. It was the thing with Combo and Andrea's kid brother. After the writers wrote that in and Jesse's believable reaction to it, there was no decision Walt could have made that would have kept the relationship going.

I watched Taskmaster on CW Seed the next day, without an ad blocker mind you. I did all I could.

Edit: I mean on the main CWtv site. It obviously didn't get moved to CW Seed until a few days after the dreadful numbers came in.

I should really give Columbo a shot. I know too many people obsessed with it.

As far as TV shows that are actually just movies, I remember really like the first half of Prison Break season 4. Each episode was basically a 40 minute heist movie, ala the Italian Job or those Fast and Furious movies that were actually just heist movies.

So how did this latest season of American Gods land? I've had a Starz subscription this whole time, but haven't been able to muster up the motivation to watch it after the wet fart that was last season finale.

I read the book, so I know what story arc you're referencing, and I enjoyed it enough way back when. You saying that it "meandered" is concerning, because I didn't like the last season because of how many episodes it felt like nothing was happening.

Due to the higher transmissibility of the newer variants that are rapidly taking over, we need about 70% of the total us population vaccinated to reach herd immunity and break transmission chains.

Is that 70% vaccinated, or 70% with some level of resistance to COVID? Because 30% of the US and counting have already contracted the disease.

Oooo that could be a Lifetime movie:

Focal Length - the tale of an extremely attractive man that is striking out with online dating because phone camera focal lengths make him an uggo.

I mean that's such a mundanely common thing though. Selfies in your profile aren't discouraged for purely philosophical reasons. A picture taken that close can make your jawline and profile subtly different and unnerving.

Basically I wouldn't want a full movie for this. We can cover it in a single Seinfeld episode.

How is the show Arrow? Worth getting in to? I see its available on Netflix.

I haven't watched much of the TV superhero shows. I think the last I watched was the first season of The Flash and then quickly fell out of it.

Early Arrow was pretty drat good. It had some surprisingly good action scenes, better than you'd expect from network TV. It definitely starts dropping off by season 3 though, with sporadic flashes of quality for the remainder of its run.

It definitely is more applicable to literature than it is to film. It "costs" time, paragraphs or pages, to talk about a gun hung on a wall. In TV and cinema, you can have a gun on the wall and not talk about it at all. At the same time, if every scene transition into the room has a lingering shot on the gun, you drat well better fire it, or show a flashback about why it's there or something like that.

Maxwell Lord posted:

Wasn’t it quite literally about theater and specifically set/stage instructions in plays? If you write in a script that there’s a gun on the mantle, the props department has to find or buy a prop gun, and that’s an expenditure that they have to make, so don’t force them to do that unless the gun actually has a purpose.

Could be. My 20 second glance at Wikipedia used the word chapter, so I just assumed it started in literature and moved on from there.

Why would anybody want to escape ghosts? Nobody’s ever been physically harmed by a ghost.

If I was in the market for a house, i’d specifically tell my real estate agent to find a property with the most amount of ghosts per square foot.

Then i’d make a Twitch account where every day i’d walk around the house showing off all my ghosts and ghouls and poltergeists and make a shitload of cash from all the sponsors that would glomb onto me.

My ghosts only appear near my hot tub.
