Curb Your Enthusiasm is the Ersan Illyasova of comedies. It doesn’t age, its always there for me, and it always comes through in the clutch.

I f****ing loved Dune. If WB doesn't green light a sequel I'll never watch another movie of theirs again.

The season premiere was all over the place. Enjoyed it. I hope Leon is in every episode. Susie too.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I think it's a pretty safe bet there will be a sequel.

Had dinner in LA a few years back with Leon at the table next to me. Yes, I kept looking over at him wanting to do a Larry riff.

Adding Leon to Curbed was something like adding Rodman to the three time champ Bulls. Led to several additional great seasons. What a pickup.
The best line of the episode was when Larry hit the glass door and Leon says “thats the second feeble thing!”

My fave Leon line is a single word:
"Ejac-a-lit?"

I enjoyed the premiere of Curb but thought it was uncharacteristically untidy for Larry.

J.B. Smoove's rejected Monday pitches at SNL are hilarious. I love that he's really playing only a slightly exaggerated version of himself on Curb.

Susie did plop.
Curbed was a little looser than normal. I viewed it as a spring training situation. This is the first attempt in over 3 years. Larry’s fastball will return.

I'm a little over half way through Midnight Mass and I'm not a horror film guy like at all but holy hell is this well done. The priest and Matt Saracen have both been excellent.
Extra hits home for me because I grew up in a small town, went to Catholic school and was an alter boy. I also share some of the questions/issues with the church expressed on the show. Obviously not to turn this into a religion discussion but I think the show has done a really good job with the topic.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

As per usual with Flanagan's shows, I wouldn't really say it's scary, but it's very very well made. I can't wait for his Edgar Allan Poe adaptation that he's working on now.

Re: OT: TV and Movies
I really wanted to love Dune but I just didn't. I had zero exposure to anything related to Dune before this. Beautiful to look at but it the story and characters didn't really connect with me. It all felt a bit soulless and tough to fully engage with. I wasn't overly invested with anything going on. Thought Oscar Isaac was the best thing the movie had going for it.
