I actually liked the fight scene at the end: it was a lot more physical and believable than I expected.
Book: I am a Shepherd. Folks like a man of God. Mal: No, they don't. Men of God make everyone feel guilty and judged.

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.
The Mandalorian:
Grogu piloting the body of a dead ally is kind of disturbing but him spamming the "Yes" button while they were walking down the street was hilarious.
While Paz Vizla's final stand was really cool I will never understand media that pulls the "there's too many" sacrifice card and then has that person almost win. If they almost win solo then they should have been able to win easily with their allies. They probably should have had the Praetorian Guards show up while there were still super commandos up and fighting.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I loved every single bit of this week's Ted Lasso. (Well, except the unsurprising reveal that Jamie's dad is even more horrific than he previously demonstrated himself to be.) Every other part, though. SO GOOD.

SO GOOD
I’m still not sure about Rebecca’s psychic predictions storyline although I like her story other than that, I think.
Basically every time I would think “well, this storyline is giving me everything, I don’t need anything else” we’d switch focus to someone else giving me a different everything. Good job, show.

The whole thing with Roy and Jamie was amazing.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I laughed SO HARD. Something that this show does so well is hit the beats perfectly.

Lockwood & Co I have finished Book 1, watched a few minutes of the first episode and then looked at some of the summaries of the rest of the season and realized I want to read the next book before getting into the show so now I'm doing that. But I like what I have gotten to so far in both media!
Ted Lasso I'm not sure how I feel about this week's episode. Other than I heart Keeley and Keeley and Rebecca's relationship. Mostly I keep thinking it's really weird that Jack wants Keeley to follow her lawyer's advice about what is surely a PR problem when PR is Keeley's business and core competency. Although maybe that is the point?

Damn you wee PMM! I have finished the L&Co books and while the level of resolved-ness is pretty appropriate, really, I am kind of flailing around at how open things are left. Partly because of the not really a framing story but implications that there is a framing story bits that are sprinkled here and there - I always have mixed feelings about those. I even went and looked for fic but there is a fuckload and I can't handle wading into all that.
Anyway, also happy with the show. Noticed a couple of changes I'm not happy with but may turn out okay.
