"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

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

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Also it has Guinea Pigs.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

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.

my Matilda

Everybody should have a Matilda! They're excellent.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

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

I've been watching it with my 11 year-old and we both GASPED at the cliffhanger ending of S2. Damn you, Noelle Stevenson!

(I think my favorite might be Mermista, mostly due to the Vella Lovell factor.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I really liked The Dragon Prince. Do we know when there'll be more?
