  Yeesh. Saying nothing at all would have been better than trying to make a joke of it.

  Is your username a reference to The Good Place? If so, I approve! 👍

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to find a show I watched before⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yaaaaaaaay!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to find a show I watched before⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I asked some friends. The first response I got was “Love Sick?” I don’t know if the question mark is part of the title or if they were uncertain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon To Start Running Ads In Prime Video Series & Movies, Will Launch Ad-Free Tier For Extra Fee⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  As far as I’m concerned, the presence of commercial “breaks” makes a movie unwatchable. A good writer, director, or editor carefully manages things like pace, timing, and emotional impact. Interrupting that with an ad for car insurance completely destroys the mood, and cheapens the entire experience. I don’t care if commercials are “limited”. They shouldn’t be there at all.

  I only tolerate commercials if I’ve already seen a movie a million times, and I’m only half paying attention anyway.

  You have to be MUCH more rich and famous before you can get a watch with stuff like this. Didn’t he read the Celebrity Handbook?

  Good riddance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'One Piece' review: Netflix does the impossible⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. I’d never seen any One Piece before, and I liked it, too. Yesterday I watched the first two episodes. I’m thinking about watching the anime.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘One Piece’ Review: Netflix Tries to Translate the Anime Magic (Again)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  For anyone who’s wondering, Rotten Tomatoes gives season one 82%

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'One Piece' review: Netflix does the impossible⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m curious, too. A positive review certainly helps. This doesn’t appear to be cherry picking, either. Rotten Tomatoes has season one at 83 percent!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star Trek: Prodigy’ Banner Flown Over Netflix Offices, Other Streamers in Effort to Save Show⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  CBS Studios has remained committed to finding a new distributor for the show and is finishing postproduction work on the new episodes.

  This is good to hear. Their optimism is encouraging.

  I wish the first season was still streaming somewhere.

  I never would have recognized this even if I was looking directly at it. Good catch!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Seth MacFarlane Donates $1 Million to Entertainment Community Fund to Support Film and Television Workers During Strikes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay. Thank you for providing that list and those figures. Now I have a much better understanding of where you’re coming from.

  I see your point. Four million between the rest of those folks isn’t a lot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Seth MacFarlane Donates $1 Million to Entertainment Community Fund to Support Film and Television Workers During Strikes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, yeah. Others should donate, but this is the first one I’ve seen a story about. I think it’s better to encourage people then ask why they aren’t doing more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Seth MacFarlane Donates $1 Million to Entertainment Community Fund to Support Film and Television Workers During Strikes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  We’re all used to seeing huge numbers thrown around in the news, so it’s easy to get jaded. Take a minute and think about the size of that donation, though. One MILLION dollars.

  For many of us, that’s more than we’ll earn in a decade - and that’s ignoring taxes.

  I hope some other big names follow suit.
