I went in not knowing anything about the Broadway musical specifically, and really, really enjoyed it! Really good talent and it was fun visually and musically. Excellent, excellent cast!

The ending made me cry. So well done. This show is a treasure with some some of the best casting and cinematography of anything I’ve ever watched.

Give Leslie Manville all the awards for this episode!

First, if you’ve never watched the Americans, get on it! Really, really excellent drama. I laughed out loud at Harry doing his best Matthew Rhys impersonation. This was by far my favorite episode of the season to date. Definitely felt closer to the original series than all of the other ones so far.

I remember when Wham played veterans stadium in Philadelphia in 1985 (?). Rumor at the time was he was seeing Brooke shields, and her mother was preventing him from sleeping with her and taking her virginity. Fun fact: the opening acts were Chaka Khan and Katrina and the waves! this documentary was very well done - loved it. Wham’s music was everything great about 80s music. I’ve always thought that (the original) Freedom and I’m Your Man were underrated songs so glad to see them featured in this!

99% of Miranda and Che’s entire on screen relationship is them making out or having sex. Couldn’t come up with any decent storyline for them?

I’ve gone back-and-forth with what I think about the timeline jumping this season, but IMHO This episode was by far the best of the season! The timeline jumps in this ep helped flesh out a lot of the stories we’ve seen glimpses of.

I loved this. It made me cry and made me remember how much I loved the book growing up - esp in a house where my parents, although they meant well, always felt too awkward to talk to me about anything.

Something I learned in the Judy Blume documentary… when I think of the book "Deenie" I think about a girl with scoliosis, who needed a back brace and cut all of her hair off. Everything else in that book went way over my head and now I think I need to go reread it.

Brilliant thought on Twitter - I can totally see this!

I adore the show so much but something about the season just continues to feel off to me.

Episode 13 results were hard to watch. Shonee and Liz should be listening to George about flick.

Episode seven it’s a perfect example of why Australian survivor is so much better than American Survivor!

I’m waiting for someone to pick up on how Sam thinks he’s running the tribe and calling the shots. He’s annoying and has to go.

I love this show already and, honestly, it’s no surprise, since I seem to love everything Bill Lawrence is involved with! Per his usual, it’s a balance of good storytelling, humor, and heart. I’ll be back every week to watch.

The Christmas Epiphany sketch made the night for me - I laughed out loud with that one. Cecily is an MVP on the show and she’ll be missed. Always felt her talent was taken for granted. Auston Butler was a huge surprise for me! Thought he was great - enthusiastic and totally committed to each sketch. And his monologue was great too. His mom would be proud!

I think that Janine will be paired with Maurice next based on their interaction after Gregory left to be with Amber.

So was Tyler ever into her or was it all just a ruse? I was really rooting for them, I should’ve known better!

This thread has sent me down a rabbit hole listening to a podcast and watching videos about the making and complexity of the movie/story. Keep it coming - it’s super interesting!

I enjoyed the show for what it was, and really hope there is a season two. The actress who played Wednesday is a star, and I also enjoyed the relationships between Wednesday and all the students. The only miscast I found was Gomez. I don’t know, I just didn’t find him to be a good actor for this role.

I thought the hour with Howard Stern was terrific! He is not the shock jock from his early days - he does the best interviews in the business!

So who killed the FBI guy? The Greek mafia guys or the woman police officer (having a brain fart on the name)?

Just Charles bite his lip a lot in real life? I noticed the actor keeps doing that and I don’t know if it’s his own personal quirk or an acting choice based on Charles’ habit.

I’ve had “waiting for Ashleyyyyy! Woah…” stuck in my head all week

What the hell did I just binge watch? Are more seasons planned?
