Since we're talking social media...
I'm seeing a new rash of those "I'm cleaning out my friends list - answer yes or no if you still want to be included" things going around. Am I alone in finding those annoying and really kind of off-putting?
I'm cranky today, so. But I don't friend people I don't know, and if I didn't want to see your updates, I already wouldn't be. So don't make it about me validating my interest, okay?
Not to mention that with all of FB's wacky algorithms, you never know who sees what. So if you're really defriending people on this basis, I hope your sister-in-law or whoever doesn't take it personally.
The Killing
took twelve and a half years to cover about three weeks of real time.
Okay, two seasons. But it seemed a lot longer.
Ben just had sushi for the first time with a friend and liked it. Lee will be so proud.
Lost was one day per episode for a while. I believe The Killing stuck to that. There was a show in the 90s that was about a couple in early stages of courtship and the gimmick was supposed to be that the relationship would develop in "real time", which I think meant week-by-week not hour-by-hour, but it was one of those only in syndication shows that aired in my market at 2am on Tuesday or something and I don't think I got it in the correct order, even, so I don't know how that actually played out.
The Taye Diggs show where he did a groundhog day thing.
Daybreak! Good one. I say having no idea what ita_! is actually looking for, but I liked that show and enjoy being reminded of it.
Most ongoing-type shows sometimes have episodes that are back-to-back in time, but will make it up so the season is more or less a year, right? I'm thinking of like Grey's Anatomy where two episodes might take place in the same few days.
Thanks, those are great, and Day Break is the greatest. Show most unruined by Victoria Pratt being unable to act in the slightest. How. Is. She. Cast?

I've seen a couple, too, recently, and I sometimes wonder if they're posted by some app and not the actual person. I don't know why I think that, except that the junk underneath isn't the usual comment, like, bar. And I don't see some of the people posting them as actually doing things like that. But I don't know. Then I get paranoid that some random stealth app is posting crap like that on my wall, only I can't see it. Oh, well.
