- Comment on What are you watching and, what do you recommend this week? 3 hours ago:
Just watched Glitch, a three-season Australian Netflix show about a handful of people who mysteriously return from the dead. It stars dollar-store Ryan Reynolds, Timu Chris Evans, Wish Simon Pegg, and so-close Glenn Close.
Season 1 felt like Lost. There were all these sciency/supernaturalish mysteries, and it really seemed like either side could be the bad guys. I lost track of exactly when it went off the rails, but by season 3, it was clear they had an end point they needed to get to without bothering to wrap up all the mysteries, and they just recycled the same actions every episode. Disappointing, do not recommend unless you just want something on in the background.
- Comment on Are there any books, video games, comics or movies you think would work if adapted into a TV series? 5 days ago:
The Faeirie Queen would make a cool anime.
I want to see the Hyperion Cantos adapted as a TV series.
- Comment on What are some of the most cringeworthy scenes or moments in TV that you've seen? 1 week ago:
Dani kind of forgot about the Iron Fleet.
- Comment on What's an example of a TV show that came out at before its time, or just at a bad time? 1 week ago:
The Pirates of Dark Water.
- Comment on What is an example of an adaptation of a book where the TV series was better? 2 weeks ago:
The Fall of the House of Usher not only improves the original story, but beings many of Poe’s works to life in a cohesive, beautiful way.
I’m also much more a fan of Flanagan’s Haunting of Hill House than Shirley Jackson’s, but I understand that’s a controversial opinion about a widely loved book.
- Comment on What TV series or seasons you've watched do you think needed a rewrite? Or any TV series taken a writing turn you didn't expect? 4 weeks ago:
I just started watching High Potential. It’s a police procedural, which I don’t care for #acab, but my mom likes them and this one has some qualities that make it watchable. There have been a few frustrations, but the most egregious so far is this:
Mother reports missing girls. Police captain insists they can’t put out an amber alert until it’s been 24 hours. In this, the year of our lord 2025, they decided to roll out that exhausted and dangerously incorrect trope. They even make comments later in the episode about how every minute counts toward finding them alive. I mean.
- Comment on What are your go-to lame low quality shows? 4 weeks ago:
Taskmaster. At least once you’ve seen them all, it’s a great show to tune in and out of.
Mystery science theater is another.
- Comment on What's the best "good-bad" TV series you've seen? 4 weeks ago:
Resident Alien
- Comment on What are some lesser-known obscure TV series that went under the radar, that you would recommend? 5 weeks ago:
If you like Severence, you really need to see Dollhouse. Only 2 seasons, complete story. Slow start, but it doesn’t go where you expect, it’s a complete story, and Dichen Lachman (Gemma Scout) plays basically the same role.
- Comment on pee was stored in the balls 5 weeks ago:
Wholesome sex story.
- Comment on What are some of the most well-acted, engaging, complex or interesting antagonists or villains you've watched in TV? 5 weeks ago:
Every character in Fall of the House of Usher.

Absolutely in love with The Pitt.
- Comment on ‘After Midnight’ Canceled After Two Seasons On CBS; Network Will Stop Programming 12:30am Slot 1 month ago:
I like her monologues. I love her stand-up. The intensity of her facial expressions is a big part of her comedy, and she doesn’t do that on the talk show.
- Comment on the duality of beetle 1 month ago:
Obviously beetles aren’t smart enough to comprehend 5th grade science.
- Comment on In Praise of 'The Pitt' Episode 12 and People Who Know What They're Doing 1 month ago:
I can’t recommend this show enough, it’s amazing.
In episode 11, they showed a woman giving birth. As in, full on, baby coming out of vagina, hands reaching into vagina around it (shoulder was stuck). I’m a 42 year old woman with no children, and I’ve never actually seen what it’s like to give birth before.
- Comment on Pineapple was never the problem 1 month ago:
There are lots of recipes online for pizzas with different kinds of fruit and meat. Pear with prosciutto and blue cheese is really good.
- Comment on Can I consider myself bi or should I just say straight if I want to date women but just can’t find any that attract me? 2 months ago:
Sounds like heterosexual, bi-romantic. Labels are only important insofar as you’re trying to connect with people looking for someone who fits that description.
- Comment on Is it OK for a baby's head to be rolled all the way back on its neck? 2 months ago:
I have in fact done this with amigurumi dolls.
- Comment on Is it OK for a baby's head to be rolled all the way back on its neck? 2 months ago:
Baby was sleeping. Thanks for responding. I fully recognize this as a subject I’m ignorant on, so I didn’t want to err by over or under -reacting.

Throw the kids under the bus if a parent complains. “I said novio not novia. This is why Braydon has a C.”
- Comment on What are your favorite board games? I'm looking for games that are satisfying and lead to a sense of accomplishment or fulfillment or connection. 3 months ago:
We love Wingspan. Meadow is pleasant.
Just One was a great game for 4 people. Three people have to get the fourth person to guess a particular word. They each write down a one-word hint. If any two (or more) players write the same word hint, they don’t get to show that word to the guesser. It’s a lot of fun when you see the different ways people interpret words to come up with hints and how two (or more) words can work together to make you think of the answer.
