You can’t bail because of a musical episode, every show does a musical episode. It gives their best singers a chance to show a talent that is hidden from the world, and personalizes them a little. Some of the cast are excited by it, and others are terrified and dread it, especially when they hear how good some are. The Greys Anatomy one is legendary for how bad it is.

SNW’s show was pretty meh, but was saved only because La’an was amazing, and then Uhura stepped up and was MIND-BLOWING. Absolutely incredible singer.

Me, too. It was especially welcome after that Discovery debacle. That’s the only series I didn’t finish. I got 2 1/2 seasons in. Awful.

Weirdest fucking thing I’ve ever seen a show attempt. I can’t say it was a success, it was a bit of a train wreck, but not as bad as what I was expecting.

I love the delicious irony: Trump has been screaming for the Fed to LOWER interest rates, and instead they are being increased, as a direct result of Trump’s actions. He’s getting the opposite of what he wants, only because of his own fuck ups.

This is me with guitars.

It would have been nice to see the photos. Pointless article.

Movie stars think it’s funny that their kids don’t see them as anything special. Matt Damon talks about walking into a room where his daughter and her friends were watching this movie, and he said “Hey! Watcha watching?”, proud that his daughter was showing her friends one of his movies.

“The Wall,” she said.

“The GREAT Wall,” he corrected her.

And his daughter replied, in front of her friends, “Dad, there’s NOTHING Great about this movie.”

That’s one of my son’s favorite films.

My son is a devoted cinephile and film studies major and he often references a genre he calls “People in rooms talking.” He gets particularly irritated when it’s just their heads, and the background is blurred, destroying any connection to time or place.

He also hates period pieces with actors who have “iPhone Face,” meaning that they have a face that you know has seen an iPhone, even when in character.

He’s bummed about Matt Damon as Odysseus, because “he looks like a guy from Boston, not an ancient Greek general.”

It also gives the cowboy somewhere to put his hand on while riding. Otherwise, you know where he’d put his hand if the pommel wasn’t there.

The improvement isn’t always economic. There are other factors that make any alternative option to anything attractive, like renewability or ease of use.

It’s just that in a Capitalistic world, we often don’t see something as a success unless it is either A) Cheaper, or B) More profitable.
