Did the BBC comedy Staged end up airing back in June? If so, did anyone see it?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I saw an 18 minute YouTube video of them that was probably tangential to that. It was delightful. I'd share, but it's been taken down.

Yeah, I've seen I guess clips but didn't know that was what it was from. I would love to see more of it!

Our wings are not tired.

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

My sister and I have now watched the first maybe 10 episodes of Gilmore Girls. We have been looking for series to watch together that neither of us has watched. Our question is, does this go anywhere? We are finding it pretty boring so far. Pretty underwhelmed.

If you're not invested in the characters after 10 episodes, then I'm not sure it's for you.

Hey. New board.

Agreed. It is a show of characters and patter and if you don't find the first half of season 1 charming you won't like the rest either.

Hey. New board.

If you like the idea of an awwwwww show and GG isn't doing it for you, I personally suggest Joan of Arcadia if you can find it anywhere.

Thank you. I'll see if she wants to hang in there, or move on to something else.

There's a video of the table read of the last Good Place, and I really want to watch it, but I'm not sure I want to sob hysterically right now. I made it about five minutes in.

Oh, right. Link. [link]

The Good Place congratulating "Schirtt's Creek" for the Emmies (Emmys?) is cracking me up
