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.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Did anyone else watch S3 of Good Omens??

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

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.
I got spoiled for it on purpose, and I really don't want to watch it based on what I've read.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I think I do intend to watch it but I haven't yet. Kind of surprised that I haven't heard anything at all. Haven't been looking hard, but I didn't expect to have to look.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I loved the ending but it was a tough 90 minutes getting there. I think if you wanted you could just watch the last...15 minutes, probably? And not feel like you'd missed much?

Hm. That is an interesting idea.

I was really disappointed by it! I should have gone in with lower expectations, I guess, given that I knew they had to cut it down from 6 episodes to one 90-minute ep, but I just felt really let down. Kind of wish in retrospect they had just stopped with season 1 after all.

Season 1 was such delightful lightning in a bottle.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Just watched the first episode of Spider-Noir.
I liked it. Will continue.
