Our wings are not tired.

Ah, I didn't watch Gilmore Girls so I didn't get a connection there.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

One thing I missed out on was that she used to do walking tours of the National Gallery here. (She has a degree in Art History.)

Yeah, she's got some great stuff on YouTube showing off her Spicy Art Brain.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Ah, I didn't watch Gilmore Girls so I didn't get a connection there.

The three generations of Villanueva women reminded me a lot of the three generations of Gilmores.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I can see that. The Villanuevas are a lot more apt to actually work through their issues than the Gilmores though.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

I am watching Schitt's Creek (Plei's fault!) and "Get through the first season, I promise it is worth it!" is a big ask, but it pays off, OMG. I am now completely fannish over it, to the point that I watched an episode of Hot Ones just because Dan Levy was the guest.

(Is it general knowledge that he and Noah Reid had downed a bottle of prosecco between them before recording David's lipsync? "More people should get tipsy at lunch!")

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Is it general knowledge that he and Noah Reid had downed a bottle of prosecco between them before recording David's lipsync?

It's definitely the story that gets told about that scene. That and the song being the extended version and Dan not being prepared.

Hahaha, I didn't know that but I don't know anything

That show, man. The first few episodes were so hard to watch but once it got its hooks in me...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Same for us. A bit of a slog through the first chunk of the first season but then such an addictive watch.

I'm certain it will join Matilda's rotation of regularly rewatched comedies.

Noooooooo I am out of episodes on Netflix!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Is the first season of Schitt's Creek better or worse than the first season of Parks and Rec? Because that was the other show where people say "Just get through the first season and it's totally worth it!"
