  1. I assume it had something to do with increased security, and the fact that they wouldn't be able to do some of the bits they'd planned.
  2. After Midnight has been renewed for Season Two! https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/taylor-tomlinson-after-midnight-renewed-season-2-cbs-1236033651/
  3. Congratulations! Last Week Tonight won a 2024 Peabody Award for its report on the Israel-Hamas war. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: Israel-Hamas War (HBO | Max) With its thoughtful episode about the conflict in Israel and Palestine, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver offered an important corrective to the media landscape awash in misinformation and decontextualized vitriol just weeks after October 7. Though ostensibly a “comedy” show, Last Week offered one of the best encapsulations of the conflict in all of media. HBO in association with Peyance Productions and Avalon Televisio-
  4. My husband suggested that too. But I realize she needed an actual pen, because she wrote quite a bit of information on that fax (though we never saw it). The cops knew the address of the place, how many bad guys there were, how many hostages, etc. All that could have been written in blood (maybe with the fondue fork) was something like HELP! GUYS WITH GUNS!
  5. Yes, they do lock, but Larry gave him the key, so he could have unplugged the car.
  6. Yes, that was my problem. I think they should have had her say something like her parents were out of town, or that she didn't want to let them know what happened to her because they would be worried about her, or angry with her, but they weren't even mentioned, and none of the adults even asked her about her parents.
  7. My husband and I both thought the school employee who went out with Colter would turn out to be a bad guy, and were surprised that they didn't go for that cliche. One thing that bothered me was that Noah's girlfriend seemed to be alone in her house, with no parents around. I assume she was supposed to be under 18, was she living by herself? She didn't say anything like her parents were out of town.
  8. Elon Musk was going around saying that the reason Boeing is having problems with planes is that they hire black people. I'm sure he knew at least something about the real cause of Boeing's problems, but he's been on a tear agains DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion), which he likes to call DIE, and he figured this incident 'proves' his point.
  9. The story about people being enslaved and forced to run scams was a plot to a Magnum PI episode a few months ago. I thought maybe they exaggerated some in order to have a more complicated story, but I guess not.
  10. I noticed the same thing. Usually articles about The Daily Show, SNL or Last Week Tonight mostly garner comments like "Who cares? I never watch the show." I've checked comments on a few other articles (CNN, NBC) and also saw mostly positive comments.

    I think the reason Danish underestimated Roy is that he had no idea how truly horrible he was. We, as the audience, have seen him kill multiple people in cold blood. Danish has just seen him talk tough and threaten others. I don't think he would have confronted him alone if he'd known what he was really like.
  12. That was my thought too. I think there's a much higher percentage of people who use cash at dollar stores than the average store. I heard about true crime book, The Yoga Store Murder, which tells about a robbery at a Lululemon store where two employees were attacked and one was killed. The police began to suspect one of the employees was involved because the store had very little cash on hand, business was almost totally credit card.
  13. And it's not going to work anyway. I'm sure the kid can watch porn on friend's laptops/phones. Dad can buy a burner phone or generic laptop. And I'm pretty sure they still sell porn in magazine form.
  14. I read an article about Idaho, and apparently a lot of OB/GYNs are leaving the state because they don't want to deal with not being able to provide proper care to pregnant women. This means that some women have to travel long distances to get medical care. How is this helping babies? Also, in that same article, the reported asked a legislator what help the government was going to provide to poor mothers who couldn't afford to care for their children. The legislators response: "That's for churches to deal with."
  15. Interesting article about the finale and Buffalo Wild Wings https://www.vulture.com/2023/05/who-created-mrs-davis-buffalo-wild-wings-app-investigation.html
