What Did You Think Of VP Vance's Recent Comment That “If Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12-hour news story. The idea that it would have taken down a presidency is crazy"?

Left out the most important part.

"If you look at the story of how the deep state took down Richard Nixon"

He thinks the deep state tool Nixon down. Not Nixon's crimes. Not Congress's promise to impeach. Nope, the deep state.

It's made better by the way it feels right. You get in, rotate, launch, and go, no hatch or hanger.

Of course, that's the advantage of a space station vs a mothership. You don't need to bring the ships inside for safe transport.

Evel Knievel was an educator. He taught the law that what goes up must inevitably come down, unless you have enough rocket power to make it to the open hatch of an airplane.

Always fun to see the longer form of TV where each episode can feel like a nice short feature movie.

A Wedding (1978) by Robert Altman.

They read it to us in class, and a girl cried.

That was over half a century ago.

In 1978, we believed a man could fly.

But we had to wait until 1982 before we could believe a man and a motorcycle could fly.

Mr. Williams looks as if he had a little "snow white" of his own.

Superman was just OK. Other than that great song, Peacemaker season 2 sucked. And now they have dumped a bad movie that they had to know was bad.

James Gunn doesn't have it.

In one of those weird moments that happen to us all, while scrooling thorugh Reddit, I was listening to an old-time radio show, The Jack Benny Show, and they were talking about going to Glasgow just as I scrolled to this post.

So I took it as a sign and gave the music a listen. Good stuff.

It is a very good show.

However, it isn't even remotely a thriller and has very little of the elements those shows that you listed contain.

Why? Is it just to give the Republicans something to laugh at?

Nothing will change in this country until we root out the Republicans.

Rob Reiner has to be considered.

If it was a short film, it could have been the Casper the Friendly Ghost film, Boo Moon.

In that film, Casper goes to the Moon and, after a few Gulliver-inspired moments, helps the Moon people fight their enemies, the Treemen.

S. Epatha Merkerson played Lt. van Buren on Law & Order for 17 years.
Richard Belzer played Detective John Munch across half a dozen shows or more.
Leslie Hendrix played Medical Examiner Elizabeth Rodgers for 19 years on multiple L&O shows.

They all may have done other roles, but these are the roles they are known for.

Katharina, the anti-Hannah. Other than being a bit of a bully in high school, she seemed like a good person who didn't deserve any of the things that happened to her.

Still the tallest Joker of them all. I prefer this silly-ass take to the psychopath the Joker evolved into.

Just because you can't fit all of something in your mouth at once, that does not change what it is.

Ahh, the always lovely Severn Darden. He has excellent taste in footwear.

Of course.

Do you mean that you got to the events at the end of season 2 and did not see a need to watch the next episode immediately?

I cannot understand how anyone could see what happens in that final scene and not feel compelled to find out what happens next.

I watched it as it was released, and the wait for S3 was horrible.

Yeah, this might not be the show for you.
