This is super strange, but you're probably better for it.

Season 7 was pretty underwhelming and there was such a long break between 7 and 8 that I just lost interest. I did enjoy reading all of the negative reactions to it though.

Anyone else watching Mare of Easttown?

I'm genuinely enjoying it so far, especially because I've bought into the community inhabited by the cast of characters. When I was living in Philly, I dated a girl who lived in Northeast Philly, and during my time hanging out there, I'm pretty sure that I've met at least 2/3 of these characters.

Yes - love this show so far! The end of episide 2 made me go *Oh snap!* Evan Peters showing up is awesome - the way everything's veen presented about the town seems super authentic. I like how they're giving us some laughable moments and how all the characters are being fleshed out.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

OAN. Part of it in a weird, “what are the wackadoos” up to kind of way but also for the over the top WTF? moments. Rudy Giuliani popped for an interview earlier this evening.
The editorials from Pearson Sharp have become a favorite.

Watched the season finale of Invincible last night - incredible show - it's been renewed for seasons 2 & 3 - more cast I'd not mentioned - Sandra Oh, Seth Rogen etc. So many TWD alum it's ridiculous. Seriously, check this show out - if you like The Boys and/or TWD this show will blow you away. Kudos Robert Kirkman!

that was cocaine you're thinking of
Despite my prior takedown of this, I found myself watching E2 tonight. Winslet’s performance with the school psychologist (or whatever she is) was pretty impressive, and the twist at the end was a real surprise. I’ll try E3 with tempered enthusiasm.
yeah, ep 2 was good. The twist was good too! im not sure who called something similar here, it was close!
