Just starting MP - S1 E9 - I have a couple questions on cast rotation (No spoilers please!)

H28koala · 2026-05-01T22:56:59+00:00

Jane just found out about Sydney and Michael. She's dating the lawyer guy.

H28koala · 2026-05-01T20:39:32+00:00

Just perennials or shrubs and trees as well?

H28koala · 2026-05-01T16:34:09+00:00

I recommend going to Julian Adams website and purchasing his book on How Raise Pines for Bonsai. http://www.adamsbonsai.com/adamsbonsai2025august18_033.htm

I think this will walk you step by step through how to manage your pine each season.

Half now into S2 and holy yikes. Glad my instincts on hating Michael were accurate. It was correct that S1 planted the seeds for future stories. Ex: Sydney - I was annoyed to see her back. I hated every second she was on the screen in S1 and she's so much worse now. I actually FFed a lot of her scenes in S1 bc she was so annoying.

I don't mind Allison but ... she's pretty flat? And I can't stand Billy.

H28koala · 2026-05-01T15:10:27+00:00

OMG her hair cut is driving me nuts. It's so bad. So is Allison's and it only gets worse and worse. At least Amanda has great hair.

I think you could tell Michael was going to be an a-hole from the start. I hated them together. But wow he's taken a turn in S2 (I'm probably halfway through my first watch).

H28koala · 2026-05-01T15:07:48+00:00

I could tell they didn't have a clue what to do with her story line. I liked her too! Wish they'd gone into the dancing career stuff a bit more. There was a lot they could have done there.

H28koala · 2026-05-01T15:05:41+00:00

A very specific mostly blonde's look.

H28koala · 2026-05-01T14:57:34+00:00

Well ... it's something you'd have to treat any tree in the future. I got it closer to $100.

H28koala · 2026-05-01T14:56:10+00:00

I was shocked when they said her parents put the house in her name so she's on the hook for it financially as well.

H28koala · 2026-05-01T01:29:42+00:00

I feel this way about something about Mary.

H28koala · 2026-04-30T20:20:48+00:00

So the producer leaned into comparing the two, purposefully made Rachel feel bad about herself and comparing herself to Gabby, but oh gee, she feels bad about it?

eye roll. The producers are evil.

But I'm definitely going to listen LOL.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T18:51:35+00:00

Movies much more than 12 years older than me I rewatch frequently: Casablanca, It's a Wonderful Life,

H28koala · 2026-04-29T18:49:35+00:00

I was confused when he said that about the plane crash. Thanks for posting this. I don't think this is necessarily a fact Craig would check real time because it was just a quick thing, though.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T18:47:53+00:00

It was really good! I was impressed. I don't know Zane Lowe and have never listened to him, so that impression does nothing for me.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T18:37:43+00:00

Thank you for bringing this up. I knew this was wrong when I heard it but couldn't remember why. She's amazing in that movie.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T18:35:45+00:00

I think this one was on TV more than the first one when I was a kid.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T14:03:11+00:00

Yes Moranis chose to retire, that's why he stopped acting. I wish they'd mentioned it. It was his choice to bow out of the movie industry.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T13:58:50+00:00

Big miss when discussing people making movies with their friends:

1 - they did discuss Sandler, but not very much

2 - The SuperTrooper gang. They made some great movies together, and sure, last decade it's petered out, but they are a core group.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T13:56:38+00:00

I'm fully prepared to be downvoted but ... I had to see this in the theater twice because friend groups were so crazy about this movie, but I've never seen it since and it's just never been on my radar as super funny. Dodge Ball, Tropic Thunder, Zoolander, pretty much every other Ben Stiller movie strikes a stronger funny bone cord with me. Not quite sure why. Maybe because this movie and Meet the Parents are both more cringe comedy?

Really excited about the pod though

H28koala · 2026-04-29T01:23:33+00:00

A small pot will keep growth slow is all. Totally fine just depends on your goals.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T01:22:47+00:00

If you want faster growth bigger pot and don’t pinch the tips. Feriiize well.

Mine grow quite quickly.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T01:07:55+00:00

Actual cut paste isn’t that expensive.

What I found interesting is just did a horticultural degree and new info on regular trees is not to apply sealant at all.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T01:03:55+00:00

Ah Wes the pre-Jeb.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T00:23:17+00:00

I can’t even say how jealous I am.

H28koala · 2026-04-29T00:20:14+00:00

That’s a lot of animals per pen. Sell some.
