Elisabeth Shue's unexpected guest appearance in episode 3 both filled me with delight and ratcheted the OMGWTFBBQ? factor up to 11. The latter is not an easy task considering the normal vibe of this show.
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Somebody probably talked about this once, but the Danny Strong that worked on "Dopesick"(Adapting it, I should say) was once the actor who played Jonathan on Buffy, right? I mean, I thought there could be two.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.
One and the same. The dude has won more Emmy awards for writing than Joss has, plus a whole bunch of WGA awards.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I love seeing his name on stuff and am unduly proud about his awards

He did a great job. Michael Keaton deserved his award, too. (Not that I thought he wouldn't, but he absolutely played a part where I never thought about his wackier personas once, which is pretty amazing, given that I grew up during Peak Wacky Michael Keaton and tend to think of him as, idk, Better Jim Belushi or something.) I'm surprised I could watch a film about that investigation twice--Netflix had one, too, with Matthew Broderick playing the Sackler part and Crazy Eyes from Orange Is The New Black as the female investigator--I thought they were good, but that the Hulu version might be better overall. Not quite Jonathan taking over the world, but close, adaptation-wise.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

He also wrote the book for the latest version of Chess.
Malcolm was enjoyable. Scrubs is enjoyable. If you're going to reboot, boot thusly.

I like "Beef", even though it's well-made but not especially happy-making(Lots of couples fighting and petty revenge,an attempt perhaps at writing Greek tragedy, American-style maybe) Maybe capitalism is the true antagonist, with which I'm down--the no-longer-poncy bugger owes me many quid, after all, and yet? Two seasons...right in a row, though is too much Beef--it is Hank Hill's overstuffed colon, too much Beef. I liked "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" too, but it would have been insane to give it one of those TV versions, even the ones that only lasted for a year.

Did anyone else watch S3 of Good Omens??

I did! Michael Sheen is one hell of an actor.

That which does not kill you should RUN
I got spoiled for it on purpose, and I really don't want to watch it based on what I've read.
