When I was little, I got to see Gordon at a mall appearance. It was the greatest moment of my brief life to that point. I have his autograph somewhere. I always thought of the grown-ups on Sesame Street as real people, not characters.

Season 2. It helps that they donāt have to establish the backstories and connections between all of these characters and can just jump straight into the plot.
Two of my favorite things. Alternate timelines and time travel. Plus, appearances by Whoopi Goldberg and John de Lancie.
Iāve been watching. JGL and Kyle Chandler are good. Gordon-Levitt is willing to lean in to being a charismatic dick, which is important for the role.
Itās run by the same guys who do Billions, and it definitely has that same voice in terms of the look and the dialogue style. I like Billions so Iām enjoying Super Pumped as well, but I know some people who donāt necessarily dig the constant pop culture references and cadence of their writing, so, ymmv.

I enjoyed Discovery seasons 1, 2, and 3 quite a bit but I found the first couple of episodes of season 4 to be a bit boring and gave up. Should I go back and finish?
haha as much great feelings as i have for discovery iām in your same position. iām looking forward to going back to it iām just more looking forward to rewatching dumb comedy shows lately instead
btw speaking of! upload s2 released on prime today. we got 7 episodes of sci fi horror comedy, i canāt turn that down

time for all the casual star wars fans to give Rebels a look. I have a feeling there are going to be a LOT of tie ins, and not just the inquisitors.
Also, play Jedi Fallen Order for even more insight into the inquisitors.
Itās all coming together nicely.
Spoiler: I think Maureen is drunk on tonightās J!

The cast of The Raid are all officially part of the Star Wars canon and somehow Disney hasnāt thought of making a spinoff show about them. Just an incredible lost opportunity to have an action series with pencak silat and space pirates and a Han Solo tie-in. I would watch the fuck out of that, why hasnāt Disney given these guys a call?
Lmao loved that
Raised by Wolves is so bizarre. Most of the time Iām watching I feel like Iāve missed something that would make me u derstand whatās going on.
I felt the same way. And season 4 has been the best reviewed.
Well, dlk9s Jr is into S2 of Breaking Bad, close to meeting Saul, and he has now expressed interest in chemistry.

Im curious to hear a running tally of seasons for someone new to the series. In hindsight S2 is by far the weakest so Im curious how he feels as he progresses to the eliteness of S3 4 and 5
Obviously, the platonically correct name for a show about the 20th century Lakers would be āShowtimeā and obviously that couldnāt be used for a show on HBO, but what the fuck, āWinning Timeā has to be the absolute worst possible outcome of this situation, thereās no way I could ever bring myself to watch that, just all time WOAT name

They should have used a Lifetime Network style title, like āA Time For Winning: They Jerry Buss Storyā.

AuntieClimax and I just started Severance. Really enjoyable and weird so far.
Also started Search Party and I canāt believe Iād never heard of it. Pretty awesome and getting better by the episode.

man 5 episodes into Severance and nothing has happened is giving me real Lost vibes. Seriously we know exactly as much about the characters and world as we do in ep 1, minus, I guess Irv + Burt, yay? Havenāt seen any one elseās outie. Wild.

I am genuinely creeped out by how much the ads for this show are showing up on my LinkedIn feed. I am pretty sure that Severance is at itās core an anti-corporate dystopian warning, itās really jarring to see this advertised through LinkedIn unironically, given that the superficially business friendly culture of places like LinkedIn is (I am guessing) specifically what the show is warning us against.
