I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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

I just heard an interview with the person behind Fleabag (who also wrote the first season of Killing Eve) in the last week. Sounded interesting, and I like Killing Eve and awful lot, so I will probably give it a try. Is that an Amazon Prime show?

Et remove an extra comma, I don't know how that snuck in there...

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I am getting lots of adds for Fleabag on FB. I've never watched it, never heard of it - any of you?

I've been getting lots of ads for it, too, and it looks interesting. I was going to add Amazon Prime for Good Omens anyway, since that drops May 31.

I love it! It's by the woman who also wrote Killing Eve, Phoebe Waller-Bridge. It was originally her stage play and she starred in it.

It's very snarky and plays well on that level as fucked-up-person trying to negotiate their fucked up life. But it has a sadness and a depth to it as well.

You have to be willing to ride along with a very flawed character. Personally I liked her a lot even though she does some very dubious things.

Also it has Guinea Pigs.

Critics love Fleabag.

And me! Though technically I am critic, I'm not a tv critic by trade.

Hey. New board.

She-Ra is so good! I haven't loved an animated series this much since Avatar.

Matilda's a big fan. She also likes The Dragon Prince (by Avatar writers).

Hey. New board.

Once we are done with She Ra I'm going to try to get my Matilda on Korra again. I have been saving it. I will put Dragon Prince on my list too.
