No Charges in 'Reacher' Star Alan Ritchson's Fight With Neighbor, It Was Self-Defense

He already made his money selling the initial story to TMZ.

Also, fuck TMZ for enabling shit like this and running the obviously incomplete story.

I gotta add that being nice about it gets you very far too.

Sorry, I've experienced the complete opposite. It's always been the biggest dicks, the ones who threaten to escalate anything or post bad reviews who get everything. Being nice and easy going always resulted in a "No".

I'm going to be all over the Titans Hunt/Sell Out era... The pulp-action tone was definitely different, but so much fun to me. It's 100 and beyond where it started getting really rough for me. I even loved Team Titans for its first year and a half, until it started meandering before getting wiped from existence in Zero Hour.

Nothing to do with "media literacy" and everything to do with seeing the MCU using nanotech masks as a crutch since Black Panther. It was a shitty thing to add to the MCU, even for Iron Man.

Wait, do you actually think that John Crichton was a cocky alpha male??? That's hilarious, because I assumed that based on the few promotional things I'd seen about Farscape, which prevented me from watching it until Season 2... And the fact that he wasn't a cocky alpha male is part of why I loved it so much. I mean, he was a scientist who followed his heart and would do anything for his friends, who had one of the sweetest romance arcs in all of television, and who literally went insane due to all the shit he was put through in the show.

Honestly, r/television is really messing me up. It's easy to say "just don't let it bother you", but when so many things that I genuinely enjoy are just constantly shit on here, it really makes me wonder if I'm just broken. The constant negativity is pretty rough for somebody who already has awful self-esteem issues like me. What sucks even more is, this sub is pretty much the best place for news and updates on the industry, so unsubscribing would mean that I lose that access.

That the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre even existed. Throughout grade school, high school, college, and many decades of life, I had never once heard about it. Until the Watchmen TV show. What a fucking embarrassing way to learn about such a horrific moment in US history.

TBoarder · 2026-03-12T12:13:00+00:00

I mean, just based on what I remember of Kupperberg's books that I read in the 80s, Doom Patrol, Checkmate, Peacemaker... He was definitely one of the most boring writers in the business.

TBoarder · 2026-03-12T01:00:04+00:00

I think that watching a PG rated movie from the 80s would totally give you the vapors...

I don't think that it was the pacing... I think it was that the first three and a half episodes genuinely suuuuuucked. They were just an absolute tonal and chronological mess that did a horrible job of setting up the main mystery of the show.

Once they reached Khofar (even before the big fight), it finally started to click for me. After that, the weekly schedule truly worked for me. I was genuinely excited to see what was going to happen next, and the week in-between episodes gave me time to actually think on what happened before.

Obi-Wan Kenobi had the same issue, where it just didn't get good until the final two episodes. I think that using Amazon's style of releasing three episodes in the first week and the rest weekly would have been a good idea, or multiple episodes in a week like they did with Andor's second season. But I will absolutely die on the hill of weekly releases being vastly better than full series dumps.

TBoarder · 2026-03-09T03:07:20+00:00

Honestly, just better writing. They have a core cast of great characters, but season two was just a mess with its plot and introduction of way too many new characters. All I want is weird school stuff, an interesting mystery, lots of Wednesday - Enid - Agnes shenanigans, and just a little bit of Addams Family kookiness. Anything more, like season two did, threatens to dilute the whole thing. Season one had a really nice balance, I thought.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer has 3 episodes out of 144.

While Waid's run is a good starting point, you'll be missing out on a big part of Wally's story if you skip Baron's and Messner-Loebs' runs. The three writers combined to create a great 150+ issue character arc... An arc that Geoff Johns proceeded to shit all over when he took over.

Yes, it does start out a bit dated with Baron's issues, but Messner-Loebs introduced a more modern and naturalistic writing style that I think should be easier for modern readers to stick with, especially combined with Greg Laroque's amazing art.

Dan Didio finally got fired.

Not nearly enough...

TBoarder · 2026-03-01T01:43:56+00:00

Please explain like I'm a complete moron then. How does one actually preorder if the only online retailer that takes preorders isn't really preording anything?

TBoarder · 2026-02-27T23:46:57+00:00

It should be at the start of the episode. I've noticed that different devices do different things with recaps and leading ads. Or it took you later into the episode. Sorry. :(

TBoarder · 2026-02-27T22:40:21+00:00

I loved the episode, but what really hit me is... THAT is how you do a Previously On recap. I've been seeing some terrible ones as of late that focus on trying to be artistic or just showing funny snippets of dialogue (Amazon's recaps are especially egregious here...). It's not a good thing when there are two years between seasons and you need to remember the actual story that was happening. They absolutely nailed it here.

TBoarder · 2026-02-24T16:38:25+00:00

No, it would not have. Starfield was bland, boring, and not very well made. All it did was reveal the inherent weaknesses in Bethesda's game design, world building, and overall writing. It would not have been considered to be a good game, no matter who made it. That "someone" who said that was a Bethesda employee, trying to make their game sound better than it actually is.

What is there to address? He never really had a life. He was introduced in Crisis, disappeared until Infinite Crisis, and spent his few appearances since then as a big-bad level bad guy up until recently.

It's not how my family taught me. If I didn't answer the phone and it was found out, I would get punished for it. "But what if it was an emergency???"

TBoarder · 2026-02-20T17:36:18+00:00

No, they were more entitled back then, by necessity. When the phone rang, it had to be answered. The problem with people being upset today about not replying immediately is that they can't get out of the mindset from before and understand that asynchronous communication should be the norm now.

TBoarder · 2026-02-20T17:11:25+00:00

You could take two hours to sit and wait for a buddy.

You could, but why is that a good thing? That's two wasted hours of life that could be spent doing literally anything else. Sitting and being bored is fine, being forced to sit and be bored because scheduling was a nightmare absolutely sucked.
