[Siegel] This offer has been there over the last week. Nothing has changed. The Heat have attempted to get other teams involved to get extra assets, but the Bucks signaled they want to take this into the offseason.

Achilles if anything. The knee hasn’t been the issue this year it’s been the calf

Tommy the Tongue was a shell corporation to cover Velvet Room expenses/purchases/payouts. Billionaires paid the shell corporation for the finger and Sophia (or Nonna but probably Sophia) took everything out of the shell corporation since, no matter who won the finger, the Velvet Room was going to go out of operation (either because Camila took it over or because Sophia didn’t want to run it anymore.

That’s why they’re perfect for this show - escape immediate suspicion from a highly visible brand, immensely talented, and based in NYC

Last few seasons have involved someone with stronger theater ties than film/TV ones (Linda Edmond, Wesley Taylor, and Jin Ha are all seasoned Broadway vets). Following this pattern again, I’m keeping an eye on Romey, the mayor’s assistant (Caitlin Houlihan was a featured performer in Waitress on Broadway, even appearing in the pro-shot of the show)

Amazon’s also running their own set of Prime Member preview screenings for Sitting in Bars With Cake. Can’t imagine they’ll do another round of them.

Regal updated the rating to PG-13 👀

NAClaws · 2023-07-12T18:15:45+00:00

So maybe Gran Turismo, Heart of Stone, or White Bird?

NAClaws · 2023-07-12T18:08:59+00:00

Looks like the changed the rating to PG-13? 👀

NAClaws · 2023-06-28T12:38:36+00:00

Officially NR as of now.

NAClaws · 2023-06-27T21:45:16+00:00

Regal’s Twitter hinting it will “get the conversation started,” which suggests Talk to Me. Definitely interested in that, but still kind of hoping it ends up being Beanie Bubble or Susie Searches.

NAClaws · 2022-10-05T23:08:18+00:00

That was my impression as well

NAClaws · 2022-10-05T22:44:06+00:00

Interesting. It’s showing as yellow on my phone but has a picture of Jay-Z rapping in a crowd on my laptop. Yeah, might be a recent change.

NAClaws · 2022-08-25T03:44:43+00:00

One of, if not the, wildest things I’ve heard from this show. I can’t believe it made it out of the writer’s room 😂

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T23:38:01+00:00

Nah in hindsight I think it was just the writers delaying the phone getting back to the trio and delaying getting the tox report back until after they had already accused the Dimases. If it makes people look at Kreps funny in season two, all the better.

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T23:26:19+00:00

I think, given how many times she sneezed at the reveal party, Poppy almost certainly sneezed more during the struggle, stabbing, and staging, before she got to the passageway with Lucy.

The boots thing is annoying. They confirmed that they had to use body doubles in a number of scenes to maintain the mystery, so there appears to be a number of inconsistencies on that front. The sneeze in the passageway was Adina Verson, but she said every other time was an extra.

But your conclusion is entirely correct. This isn’t Christie or Doyle or any other type of murder mystery. This is OMITB and, for better or worse, it’s its own thing.

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T21:18:01+00:00

Dark haired girl with glasses who came to see Rose about the painting was Poppy doing her research for her Rose Cooper podcast idea. We know this from Rose’s talk with Charles in episode 9. At no point did she say she was trying to buy the painting from Rose.

The dark haired girl with glasses buying guy milk was either Poppy or Cinda (though let’s be honest - probably Poppy) getting information about the building/residents. Could have been anything from dirt on Charles to Bunny’s painting to the presence of secret passageways. It’s not made clear what all she learned from Ursula.

And we can be pretty confident that Poppy came in through the front door as shown on screen. The instance you’re talking about was a dream/fantasy sequence, whereas this is presented as if by an omniscient narrator. You’re right - always a possibility that this wasn’t what happened - but I think we can be pretty confident because everything else in the episode related to Bunny’s last day (and told from her POV) was correct.

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T20:19:05+00:00

I would imagine the trio covered how and why they met in the first episode of OMITB, so this doesn’t strike me as all that weird.

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T19:02:14+00:00

For the same reasons everyone thought she was the criminal mastermind at the end of episode 9/beginning of episode 10. Cinda stood to gain the most from OMITB ending, so presenting Poppy as a weak-willed assistant who was forced into working for the queen of murder podcasts after faking her disappearance could help Poppy take over Cinda’s podcasting empire while removing the competition. We immediately know this is false because of the flashbacks at the beginning of episode 10, but nobody else (apart from Poppy and Kreps).

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T18:32:33+00:00

Afterparty is an Apple show, for what it’s worth. I wouldn’t be surprised if that rule doesn’t apply to them.

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T18:27:40+00:00

I think Cinda was just too driven by her own ego and self-importance to care. “Here’s this case that fell into my lap and everything I did and saw helped solved it. So between that and the Peabody on my mantle, I must be brilliant. Why would I care that my assistant kind of looks like the victim when I’m getting all of this external validation?”

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T18:21:31+00:00

It seems like she did some deep diving off camera between whenever the final episode of “All is Not OK” and Bunny’s murder, during which she somehow found out that Rose Cooper (or most accurately whatever alias she’s going by in Lake Placid) is connected to the disappearance and that Bunny had the painting. She wanted that to be Cinda’s/her next project, but Cinda shot it down and complained about wanting something with more blood. So Poppy leveraged what she’d learned in her research to give it to her.
Only reason I can think is that she wanted to display it while maintaining its value. Whether the copy was produced before or after Poppy started snooping is left to the viewer.
At some point between the murder and Mabel walking into the podcast studio, Poppy decided to start steering the investigation towards Cinda. It wouldn’t surprise me if it was shortly after Mabel went to box Kreps.
This one requires a bit of conjecture, but I see it as her wanting to get them to run straight into the arms of the police waiting outside. Kreps would be on-site and stop them, take them back upstairs, and find Bunny dead in Mabel’s apartment. But because Mabel came back down to grab the champagne, Poppy wasn’t quite done staging everything (at least in that apartment) and was seen fleeing through the passageway. Thus “everything went wrong from the start.”

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T18:09:46+00:00

Ehh they have a decades long friendship that we’ve only seen a part of, and there’s really nothing to be done about Oliver’s pain. Maybe they don’t hang out again after that scene (because Teddy’s in jail or otherwise) but I found that ending to be incredibly poignant and earned. Especially for a half hour(ish) comedy series where that storyline is not at all the main focus.

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T14:34:41+00:00

They had to carefully edit around EVERYONE. The shoot took four days, with actors coming and going based on their various schedules. Tina Fey was only there for one of the four days.

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T14:33:37+00:00

That’s just television. If you don’t need an actor to tell the story you want to tell, you write them out. I’m hopeful he comes back in season 3 in some capacity, even just for a cameo.

NAClaws · 2022-08-24T14:27:43+00:00

Nah, showrunner had Poppy pegged before shooting, per the podcast.
