    I was wondering why nobody's talking about Jo Spurrier, this guy is a genius, love his art!

    I do love Jo Spurrier, but she is not a guy. 🙂. She is Australian though, and a lot of my favorite fantasy writers are, for some reason.

  2. I think they can still go back in time even to Young Dewey for stories. It's not like this show is all that linear.  this one had a good lesson for where I'm at personally right now--no artificial limits.

    The case was good, I liked the final twist that the defendant wasn’t motivated by bigotry but by greed and wanting to purchase property cheaply so he was stirring up crime reports, that was a good twist. I did call the actual killer the minute he appeared onscreen, but I didn’t know why he did it, and I liked the detective work in figuring it out.

    It wasn't that he wasn't bigoted; it was that his bigotry was supporting his greed. As so much of the time in real life, people find a way to make a profit off prejudice.

    3/5 - tank, Top Gun, & Yellowstone. For my misses I guessed morning star/Venus & NBA. Yellowstone was entirely luck though because I literally couldn't think of anything else and I followed the "write anything is better than nothing" rule.

    I had a weirdly long and painful week, so J! was a bit of a relief valve. I'm missing Ken already. I was hoping the fact they didn't tell us about Mayim returning until Friday's game meant that it wasn't true!

    I have a degree in Social Work and I hate the refuse to talk to a therapist plotline. What was the harm in talking to the counselor? Ava wasn't going to fire anyone. I thought the subplot with Melissa wanting to be a firefighter went on too long.

    But in real life, a LOT of people don't want to talk to a therapist. They believe it makes them weak, or incapable, or something else negative. Some people just don't feel comfortable talking to strangers. Its not just some crazy idea sitcom writers invented. It's a very real part of many people's lives.  I like that someone so strong and together was ultimately willing to talk to the therapist and that it did not diminish her at all.

  6. I think Trevor is a great interviewer, and I think he let the guests talk a lot. But he obviously was familiar with their work, books, movies, whatever, and asked really informed, open questions. I watched people I never would have if not for Trevor doing the interview. 

    I don't think any of the guests so far is anywhere close to Trevor.

  7. Week 21 4/5 with 1*.

    Week 22-back to normal--2/5, 0*.

    But week 21 was my birthday and I just got back from a week of vacation, so I was definitely feeling good. The universe apparently gave me good J! as a gift!

    All I have right now are homemade butterscotch cookies, but you are all welcome to share!

  8. I don't have any other device for the forums. I'm not a ludite, but I also don't have lots of devices. I did try rebooting the tablet, if you will. They are sometimes grey fuzzy bars too. I'll screenshot it when it happens again.

    Paramount+ and Showtime to Merge

    * The Showtime cable network will be rebranded as Paramount+ With Showtime. All that changes is the name.

    * The Paramount+ Premium tier ($9.99/month with no ads) will also be rebranded as Paramount+ With Showtime, and host Paramount+ and Showtime original series.

    * The Paramount+ Essential tier ($4.99/month with ads) will host Paramount+ original series only. Nothing changes.

    So if I have Showtime via my cable provider, and get the streaming/app version as part of that, what happens to my account?

     I did love how fast Judd clocked them as Nazis though.

    I'm guessing this isn't the first time Judd needed to read the room at super speed.

    It took me an unreasonably long time to recognize DB Woodside, especially considering how much I enjoy his work, but it just wouldn't click last night. Always happy to see him though, even when I can't remember why!

  11. I was worried the woman in the middle would win. If she bet it all, she would have tied Troy's total going into FJ! With David so close, I doubted he would bet $0, but in her spot I would have taken that chance. No risk, no reward. But she was so slow picking I was surprised how much she had going into her DD.
