Mabinogia

I can't stand Whedon, didn't even like him from the start, but I LOVE Buffy the Vampire Slayer and regardless of what a trash person he is, the cast and crew of that show deserve props for bringing a truly iconic show to life. The thing is, with these problematic show runners, they are not the only ones responsible for the show. Yes Gaiman was in charge of Good Omens, but that show would be nothing without the chemistry of Michael Sheen and David Tennant, without the amazing set designers and wardrobe dept, etc. So, boot Gaiman from the project, fine, but cancelling it is denying a lot of people a job and a lot of fans a final chance to be in that amazing universe created partly by the late Terry Pratchett. Only really a physical work of art is the product of a single person. Music, movies, television all have many to hundreds of people involved in their making. It seems a shame to punish all of them for one dickheads bad life choices.

OMG I remember, vaguely, Mathnet. I didn't realize James Earl Jones was in it though. Wow

Actress: And why do I have to show my knickers? Director: It is VERY important to the plot that we know the car is speeding. Actress: Couldn't you show a pile of newspapers fly off the newsstand? Or just show the speedometer, or an Afgan hound's hair gets blown. Director: This is your only part in the film, just stand there, let your skirt go up and get paid. Life as an actress in Hollywood. Good times.

I used to camp and we were far more into beer than rodeo so I could see where you'd think Pabst, and where you'd be disappointed.

That one is my alarm for getting up in the morning, because some mornings it feels like an impossible mission. Ah, the sad state the world is in when just using a word can get one banned. The M*A*S*H theme song is one of my all time favorites and if I'm in the right mood, can make me cry. RE: End credits. Even the MCU ones aren't actually important to watch. They're just teasers/ads for the next movie. I only stick around for them if I've read that they are funny. If they contain anything truly useful for future movies I can just read about it on the internet or figure it out at the beginning of the next movie.

Same with me. Usually prefer the UK version of any show over the US. I think with Ghosts, for me it is that UK Ghosts tends more towards that "aren't horrible people funny" humour, that's not really my cuppa. I mean, the only character I even remotely liked was Kitty. US Ghosts has a more warm, cozy feel good vibe that was a breath of fresh air amid TV's current trend towards darker programing, anti-heroes and misery porn. Even when it's not making me laugh out loud, which it does a LOT, it just makes me smile.

I feel that way about the UK version of Ghosts. It's... there. I've snickered at a few things, but I don't care about the characters (though I do love several of the cast, just not their characters) so I just if I don't ever see it again I won't miss it. But I am obsessed with US Ghosts. I just love the US characters better and can't wait to see them again.

Apparently Spike/Buffy was Marti Noxon's fantasy. I'd still take Spike over Angel any day.

I don't buy for a second that Xander ever cared about Cordelia. She was a trophy. She was proof (for Whedon) that the "good" guy can bag the hot chick. That relationship was 100% the creators teenage fantasy being played out on screen. Cordi, even if she's stayed the bitch she was at the very beginning, deserved better than Xander. My unpopular Buffy opinions are that I hated Angel, I hated everything about Angel, and much more unpopular, I like Cordelia better than Willow. It's not that I dislike Willow, I like her, i just find her kind of overrated.

When I hear Q my first instinct is De Lancie so it takes me a minute to figure out why that Q would have a gadget shop, then I remember Bond's Q and the lightbulb goes off. lol

Oh yes, and how all teenagers on television are somehow master stylists. They'll hack their hair off, all jagged uneven ends, and yet, a little gel here and some curling there and poof, perfect hair again. I remember trying to cut my bangs once in middle school. Try as I might, I was not cool enough to make Staircase bangs a thing.

I always wanted a dressing table. It seemed so glamourous. But I work for a living and don't have time to waft around in my long silk robe at my dressing table so, yeah, I go with the "slap it on in the bathroom mirror" makeup technique. Faster, though less glam. Yeah, the one I had, it was a twin, was basically a military grade air mattress with about 3 inch thick padded walls around it all zipped into a standard looking mattress casing. From the outside it looked like a normal mattress. I honestly regretted getting it. I was young and foolish. lol

I had a Sleep Number bed and it would randomly deflate on me (it was filled with air, not sure if they are still made that way). It didn't happen often, maybe a handful of times, but waking up on the hard plastic "box spring" surrounded by the padded edges that kept it from moving around was like waking up in a coffin. Not fun. SO I agree with your assessment.

Charles also could hold his own against Hawkeye and BJ. Frank was a weasel who had no problem going behind their backs but really couldn't spar with them. Charles was also a better doctor. He might have been pompous, arrogant, sometimes insufferable, but they respected his work. I think they wouldn't have been as hard on Frank if he was at least competent. I feel bad for Larry Linville because Frank Burns was a tough character to make likable. But he's the perfect example, for me, of a love to hate characters. We were meant to dislike him, but Larry was a good enough actor to make him watchable. So I didn't hate him in that "get this asshole off my screen" kind of way I do others, but in a "OMG I can't believe this idiot, but he's entertaining" kind of way.

I'm single and I have a queen sized bed. Haven't had anything smaller since college.

I am very frustrated that they haven't put season 2 or 3 on DVD. I prefer to have a physical copy of the shows I love and I have season 1. I can't stand that I can't get the full series. I liked UK Ghosts okay, not enough to buy it as I just don't like the characters enough to want to watch more than once.

I watched all of Monk and loved it, but 100% agree. I have on and off been watching it via Prime, or Freevee (whichever one it's on) and can only watch a few eps at a time. And IDK if this is unpopular or not, but I utterly and completely preferred Sharona to Natalie. Natalie annoyed me from day one so I can't watch more than one of her eps at a time while I can plow through a fair few of Sharona's. It doesn't help that Natalie came in later when the show was starting to decline as most long running shows do. Second opinion I'm not sure is popular or not, I loathed Dale the Whale. But then, I tend to loathe all "Moriarty" type recurring arch rival characters.

Yeah, I can't think of anywhere more fitting For Leslie Knope to get married than City Hall. I'm sad I don't remember that as I tend to prefer the "it all goes wrong and they make do" kind of weddings, no tele, not so much in real life.

I'm not a fan of weddings or tv weddings. The only two I can say I ever really loved where... Cruz and Eden's wedding on Santa Barbara. I adored her dress (though looking back at it now, it was a LOT but I was young then) and the location was to die for! Niles and Daphne's triple wedding on Frasier. They are one of my all time favorite couples, so to see them finally get married, and for it to be because she just couldn't wait anymore, and then to have them have so many weddings Niles was just running through his vows like a laundry list always cracks me up. And Martin, at the end, tears me up every time. I think, though, that since most of my favorite pairings are not cannon, therefore, those who do get married are usually pairs I just don't care about, tv wedding are not quite for me. I didn't give a toss about Cruz and Eden as a couple, I just thought the location, on a cliff overlooking the ocean, was stunning. Niles and Daphne might actually be the only tv couple I adored that got married. I honestly can't think of any others. Ben and Leslie from Parks and Rec maybe, but I can't remember if they had a wedding, so if they didn't, I clearly didn't care much for it. lol

Yeah, it's literally her job to catch shit like that. Unless this is an ep of CSI and someone secretly slipped live bullets into the gun after she handed it to the actor, this is on her. And I do not believe for a second that that scenario happened. This wasn't some complicated murder, it wasn't a freak accident, it was negligent homicide on the part of the person whose job it was to keep the cast and crew safe from weapon related activity.

I was only joking about him paying her off. If it really was to make a name for herself, well done, you are now going to be known for being shady and untrustworthy. good job. I do think the case was doomed from the start as, while Baldwin is a producer, he's most likely just a vanity producer rather than hands on. Many actors have in their contracts that they get a producer credit. Culpability, to me, lies in the armorer and whoever hired her. There are certain jobs that just shouldn't be nepo hires. Dealing with deadly weapons should be one of them.

Well, I hope Baldwin paid her a very hefty sum to blow up her career in order to get his case thrown out. IDK if that's what happened, but it is the only thing that makes any sense as to why she would bother hiding evidence that was used in the other case and did not end up swaying a jury. It just doesn't sound like this particular bit of evidence would have made much difference, so why the hell did she bother trying to hide it? It's very strange. I am glad it got discovered because regardless of how insignificant the evidence was, the hiding of it is very telling of how this prosecutor does her job and that should definitely be reviewed.

I wish they had killed Homelander at the end of last season, that Hughie and Butcher taking the Temp V made them strong enough, alongside the others, to finally take him down. Yay! They saved the world! Only to realize Homelander wasn't the true enemy, or not the only one, because now another Supe has risen into his place. This is where it could get interesting. They could go with: A) Sage, smartest person. Which would cause them to have to confront a new and more insidious form of evil. Where HL was controlling everyone with fear and strength, Sage is getting into people's heads, controlling them with manipulation and tapping into universal fears. B) Ryan. While Becca's nurturing kept him "good" for a while, HL's influence, and sycophants like Ashley whispering in his young and impressionable ear that he is now the most powerful person in the world and it is his job to uphold his father's legacy, blah blah. Now this one would put Butcher in a hell of a position. His whole thing was taking down HL but now the one person he's been trying to save has basically become HL. DRAMA!!!! And because Anthony Starr is so amazing has HL, instead of having Butcher hallucinating his old partner? is that who JDM is supposed to be? I don't pay much attention when he's on so I'm not sure who the character is. They could have Butcher haunted (and taunted) by Homelander. Imaging having the person you hate most in the universe now living in your head 24/7. I get that the show doesn't want to lose HL but this would be a way to keep him around while also changing the show up dramatically but also kind of keeping it status quo. Alas, we're still just circling the same old "Boys want to take down HL but can't because he's too powerful, but someone not powerful enough to get rid of them because then the show would be over." I'm basically watching more because I enjoy some of the characters than because I'm even remotely interested in the story anymore.

I just assumed he had some underling who held it for him when he peed. No way he's doing that himself, he's Homelander!

That got me too. Just hit me hard. Poor Kimiko. While I can accept that Frenchie probably should go to prison for what he's done (which can really be said for every single character on this show) seeing Kimiko looking so lost and alone broke my heart. I love Kimiko and don't like seeing her so heartbroken.
