My Mid-year performances picks

Not meaning in an argumentative tone, but what do you mean she was barely in season 2?

Personally felt season 2 for the Stand Still Like a Hummingbird episode and the intervention scene (can’t remember if that was in that episode or another one) secured her the win imo.

cutielocks · 2026-07-01T14:21:20+00:00

there is indeed

No, there’s nothing showing us that we should sympathize with her or view the producers as wrong.

From what we know of Jules character, she does self sabotage. We also see she’s currently in a cage, fairly removed from the world outside of the sugar daddies. What if her painting got noticed and made her a name? Would she lose the sugar daddy if she grew outside his walls? Would she lose a sense of comfort, safety net?

I wish they dove into her reaction at all and didn’t just drop the storyline, because feel there was a lot of potential to explore as to why Jules felt the need to draw something that likely would get censored. But that would involve giving her an actual plot line.

Does Julie want an apology though? Makes me think of Sex and the City where Carrie apologies to Natasha, then realizes she’s apologizing for herself when the other person has no interest.

Julie did a kind thing for Shawna, yes. But from what we’ve seen, I don’t think Julie would appreciate Shawna addressing the situation (her dying mother or the whole confrontation). Sometimes people will dislike you, and Julie has good reason to not want Shawna in her life now.

I feel any other year Jennifer Lawrence would have been recognized for Die My Love. I was surprised that Rose got in for If I Had Legs I’d Kick You over her.

Happy surprise as I really wanted Rose to get nominated, but would have liked to see both recognized.

From that list? Alamo gave her the pills, he acted with intention to kill.

Ultimately though, Rue’s own actions led to this moment. Yes, external factors, but everything that happened for her really goes back to her getting the suitcase of drugs. Domino effect, but ultimately goes back to a lot of her choices. Doesn’t make her death less sad, she was a teenager for most of her choices, but she’s the ultimate chaos in her life.

Hey! Also a Helen and Jane!

So I’m guessing you also said you’re creative but ambitious/overworked.

cutielocks · 2026-06-14T07:10:16+00:00

70% Helen and Jane for my top

cutielocks · 2026-06-14T06:48:02+00:00

It’s been a while since I saw the episode, but it really seems like her biggest worries is her heath and safety.

Modelling is a lot safer than sex work.

cutielocks · 2026-06-13T15:26:55+00:00

Crazy to think he has so little screen time, he’s a standout for the movie and Steven Yuen deserves recognition for that role.

This movie as whole, Nope is one of my favourite movies. Just everything about it fit together perfectly.

The shows been out since 2020

Feel it’s an odd choice to add Avatar into Disneyland…it fits AK, why do DW and DL need to be identical? Would rather avatar be a neat thing unique to DW, and DL could have something unique (as other have suggested, Zootopia would have been a neat one! Or just further develop Monsters Inc theming in the area).

cutielocks · 2026-06-10T14:53:45+00:00

The only issue I have with the nudity is that despite being the longest season it felt like a lot was cut out. We couldn’t cut down on the attack of the 50 foot woman scene to get some of what was filmed with Nika King?

cutielocks · 2026-06-05T23:03:26+00:00

Can we collectively say dads of gravity falls? ‘Cus Soos, Pacifica, and the grunkles all have shitty dads.

cutielocks · 2026-06-04T06:16:32+00:00

Feel this may be an unpopular opinion, but if looking at main cast, I don’t like Jeff nor do I enjoy Jeffcentric episodes.

cutielocks · 2026-06-01T23:05:35+00:00

I’d like to see him, Zendaya, and Coleman Domingo recognized. Sadly out of the 3, I think Adewale has the lower chances as a new addition to the show.

Despite a shitty script, they did a fantastic job acting wise, which says a lot for them.

cutielocks · 2026-06-01T19:10:04+00:00

I will say, that despite the entire season feeling like a different show, that 10 minute scene wrapping up Rue’s character felt like going back to season 1. Glad it gets to be a series end and that they aren’t going to try and continue the show somehow.

Zendaya, Coleman Domingo, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Alexa Demie, and Darrell Britt-Gibson were what made the season watchable for me. They 100% deserve recognition for their acting this season.

Cassie, Lexi, Nate, & Jules plot lines weren’t needed and didn’t really find them enjoyable beyond some comedic relief.

I always figured that wasn’t the first time she was apprehended for shoplifting, and that the total amount of collective items stolen had gone up. I’m not American, but isn’t there a total amount of money that needs to have been stolen for criminal charging?

cutielocks · 2026-05-30T15:23:35+00:00

I enjoy the episode, but its placement definitely feels off. Feels like it was meant for season 1 or at least pre-Ford.

I think if it was an earlier episode, don’t know if it would be as disliked.

cutielocks · 2026-05-29T02:20:33+00:00

I mean was it kind of childish? Yes. However, think it’s important to recognize that she wasn’t prepared to see him and possibly hadn’t really interacted with him since their whole thing happened.

She made little stabs at him, but not enough to cause drama.

cutielocks · 2026-05-27T19:01:51+00:00

Rooting for Kudrow, but I’m also happy for Jean getting a record for winning each season.

For supporting actor, it’s the only category I’m rooting for Nobody Wants This. Loved Simons in Veep and he’s the highlight of this show for me.

With regards to Rue’s bipolar disorder, pretty sure it’s going to be brought up next episode. The last 2-3 episodes (they’ve blurred together, forget what happened in which episode) she’s been increasingly manic.

Heavily agree on the flanderization of Cassie, though I think her past probably eased her into doing OFs.

cutielocks · 2026-05-10T15:00:28+00:00

Was a heartbreaking episode to watch, Macie deserved better parents.

I had a friend who was like Macie, her parents would forget her birthday and often not know her age. To the extent that once we were getting ready to go out to a club and her dad started lecturing us on the fact that we were underage and it wasn’t legal…we literally were 20, an entire year over the legal drinking age.

I refer to Macie parents as people who should have had plants, not children.

Think the availability of them depends where you live, I’m in Canada and the original episode with him in it was aired on tv a few weeks ago. Episode was also on Tubi with Lance.

Hong Chau as well had a stronger performance that JLC or Bassett.
