Off the top of my head, my favorite bits were the reaction video, video game streamer and white woman's instagram :lol:

Inside is definitely his best but his others are also very good. Even his show on MTV in 2013 - Zach Stone is Gonna Be Famous, was fun.

Call me basic or whatever, but I'm hyped for F9.

Yep, I like where it's headed.

Also, big-ups to Oshkosh in the 2nd episode.

I was wishing it was Bristol instead of Oshkosh.

I know we talked about Handmaids here a few weeks ago and I was on the agreeing side of it going way downhill after season 1. so I generally went into the new season with a blah attitude and expecting it to keep spiraling. But, I've done the first 5 episodes the last few days and so far I'd give it a thumbs up. There's been some change up instead of doing the same thing over and over like happened the first few seasons. We'll see how the last 5 go

I’m convinced the show is just a vehicle to get prolonged close up shots of Elisabeth Moss looking really angry.

I've noticed that even more this season, maybe some covid filming things that will lead to less group shots idk. Feel like I've noticed that in other shows too but maybe I'm 'seeing things' too. I'd note she has been an incredible actress throughout this show though, deserving of awards she gets.

But as soon as I say something good the next episode I watch is bad and has me rolling my eyes at how dumb she is for dramatic effect (playing into what you said too which I thought the writing forced her to overract). Probably won't get to the rest until next week but either way just glad they shook it up.

It has been throughout, a bit more pronounced this season as she is more unhinged. I don’t think it’s a covid thing. Others have mentioned this, but I find her scientology background super problematic for her playing this role.

Has anyone seen Outcry on showtime? I haven't finished it but so far an incredible story and just infuriating. I think the movie the hunt has a similar storyline, although obviously outcry is a doc. It is any mans nightmare. I do have some questions though. And f that police department. I'm not gonna post spoilers, but the stupidity of the one police officer and how he was promoted is very scary.

I didn't notice this until my brother told me to watch Yellowstone just now, but Amazon is giving Prime members .99 cent two month subscriptions to its channels. I got Paramount+, Showtime, and AMC+.

Saw a Karen movie is trending on Twitter. That trailer looks like a parody.

Grateful to have the ECF to distract me from obsessively waiting for this the next two weeks.

Well I finished the season last night with no NBA on. Like I said overall I was glad they shook it up. However, the last episode or two were just so far fetched and unbelievable that it again left me rolling my eyes. So my summary, first 5 episodes were pretty good. Last five, especially the big events of the finale were so unrealistic that it was just stupid. Hard to believe a show of this stature would let that happen.
