Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I am finally watching The Umbrella Academy! About halfway through the first episode and I think I'm in love.

Yes, girl, YES.

Our wings are not tired.

We need more Umbrella Academy soon please.

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

You get the credit, Tep, that any time anything has called to me on Netflix I would think “but first, Umbrella Academy”. And it’s finally paying off.

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

But what I came here to say was - I am finally watching The Umbrella Academy! About halfway through the first episode and I think I'm in love.

Awww, yeah! Official notice: Klaus is Matilda's woobie.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

If you missed the previous discussion -t, Witcher season 1 jumps between multiple time periods and doesn't explicitly tell you it's doing it but rather expects the audience to put it together from dialogue and visual cues. This resulted in a lot of confusion for some people initially.

Witcher season 2 is probably next on my watchlist after The Mandolorian (my wife finally admitted she's probably never going to get around to watching it with me and to go ahead), WoT and Hawkeye.

I kind of knew that but not enough to not be confused, Kalshane. I may rewatch to see if bearing that in mind makes it easier to follow. I also mostly watched on my phone and didn't always realize that the brightness was turned way down because of some automatic settings I have, so a lot of potential for me to miss things I should have seen...

Klaus is pretty much made of pure woobitanium

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I saw that Witcher Season 3 has been greenlighted.

I’m pretty glad, at this point, that I was not watching The Umbrella Academy in real time and don’t have to wait for season 2. Dang.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

So how about that bath scene in The Witcher? amIright!

My exact reaction! Also, I was going to riot if Hazel and Agnes didn't get their happily ever after.
