Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

That which does not kill you should RUN

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.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

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.

Everybody should have a Matilda! They're excellent.
