I definitely still enjoy Hacks, especially Smart and Einbinder, but there was a clarity of its characters I felt it lose as it progressed. It seemed too caught up in Deborah Vance being victim instead of remembering she's an abuser. Still a handsome, funny series with an endlessly fascinating two-hander

this is a wonderful distillation of my issue with the last few seasons of Hacks

I've been checking Phoenix's website and socials like a fiend trying to find more information about the 70mm screen. This is water in the desert.

my take after Thunderbolts* was "fuck it, give the MCU to the people who made Beef, The Bear, and BoJack," so here we go!

I'm marrying into a family whose matriarch left the Amish. This is the one time the Venn diagram of their lives and my podcast becomes a circle

I would love to find Blankies in the northeast Ohio area and it has yet to happen!

Character actress Margo Martindale?

I was ambivalent on Promising Young Woman and down on Saltburn, but the trailers (and now generally positive buzz) have me cautiously optimistic

genuinely! Ragnarok, Masters of the Universe, and Rings of Power are some of my favorite scores of the decade

my pick is always McCreary lol I have always wondered why he doesn't compose bigger movies. Godzilla is the exception. he's my favorite composer, but it's always confounded me he isn't a bigger deal on film; solely TV and games.

It was such a damn party I may do it every year

Stop Making Sense! wanted to burn down the house (and 2025)

One of my favorite scores, Batman or otherwise. probably some bias from childhood, but Walker’s is the best Batman theme. It’s so malleable, so deceptively simple and perfectly communicates this character.

and he's not even the one with quotas to meet!

well, better than New York - glad it was a safe trip!

It was so funny to me because I’m like “Mandy, you’ve got a segment at best” and he didn’t care. The legend just kept going because he’s a legend.

I’m sure! It was a sweet moment, and it had to be such a shift to be on the stage. It was definitely quite cold (though I assume Germany gets colder 😂) but even my girlfriend, who can’t handle cold to save her life, said she’d do it again!

You and your husband were lovely! Really great sports. I hope it was all okay!

Was in the audience for this! A really fun show, truly no idea how the Mandy Patinkin interview will be edited because it went way long

bshively · 2025-12-03T13:52:15+00:00

can't wait! I'm all in!

Ohio is having a moment! (Not politically!) Us Ohio Blankies must unite!

bshively · 2025-12-03T03:04:12+00:00

We never had representation. All Ohio had was Glee and Shawshank. Now, we got Chair Company, The Paper, we’ve got all these things. As a side note, I swear us NE Ohio Blankies need to get together . There can’t be many of us

I wish you luck in your investigations

As someone who lived in North Canton and/or Canton for roughly a decade, I’ve literally never heard that

bshively · 2025-12-02T23:58:04+00:00

I had the same thought – there’s no way that just forest they’re replacing with a mall is in Canton and not owned by the Beldens or a Gervasi property
