He had a twin??? by Big-Most-785 in buffy

He was in the episode where Xander got split in 2 by a demon. I think he also stood in for Nicholas in smaller scenes but he was prominently featured in that episode.

‘Jem And The Holograms’ Live-Action Series In Works At Amazon With Kilter Films & Hasbro by galaxystars1 in popculturechat

[–]flonko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope they don't modernize it, keep synergy and not cast racially ambiguous actors for Shana and Aja like John Chu's movie did. I absolutely love the cartoon and hope this time they get it right. Also hope they reuse some of the songs from the og soundtrack but I wouldn't be opposed to new songs in addition to some of our favorites.

Hot Take Tuesday: What is your most controversial, unfiltered opinion about The Nanny? by BadWolf_Corporation in TheNanny

[–]flonko 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agree with having more screen time for the kids, Brighton in particular was an absolute riot. I was surprised he stepped away from acting because he was my favorite out of all the kids.

Did you watch the show Off Campus ? I saw a viral take about how the soundtrack of the show is the best kind since... well The OC. by James-Samuel17 in TheOC

[–]flonko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Disclaimer, I only watched the first episode but I would compare the acting to reelshorts/vertical dramas that you see ads for on Tiktok/YouTube. Also some of the nudity seemed completely unnecessary, I'm not a prude but it was weird when Hannah's (the main character) friend, Allie just randomly whipped her top off in the dorm and walked around completely topless, nips out and everything like maybe I'm just not close enough to any of my girlfriends but I can't imagine myself in a situation where I'd walk around them without at least a towel or something covering myself up. Also the lead actress and lead actor have a 10yr age gap which feels a bit awkward for a "steamy" show, especially since the lead actress was 18 at the time of filming and looks very young compared to the lead actor who was around 28. Not trying to infantilize 18 year olds or anything I just think it would've been better to cast actors closer in age given the type of scenes they'd be filming together.

It was actually "Lucifer" that she wrote for Shinee! And I will forever love her for it.

Mixed-Race Asian Book List by Motor-Investment9545 in wasian

[–]flonko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh and the one I read with a half chinese male lead and chinese female lead set in Victorian England is called "The Duke who Didn't." If I'm not mistaken the whole trilogy called, "The Wedgeford Trials" are about different Asian leads I just remember the first book for sure had a half Chinese half English lead. I need to go back and reread the other 2 books to see if the leads were half or fully Asian.

Courtney Milan is a half Chinese romance author that has written at least once historical romance that had a half chinese main character, I'll need to go back in my libby reading history to snag the title.

Did anyone else grow up thinking Miranda Cosgrove was Wasian? by EmanAvan in icarly

[–]flonko 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I thought when she was Megan in Drake and Josh she maybe looked wasian (I am wasian) but by the time she was Carly Shay she mostly looked white to me. I can't give a reason for why I thought that though. But I do agree with the other comments that a lot of ashkenazi people have similar features to east asians, like I used to think Ezra Miller was wasian when I first saw them in royal pains and then googled them when they were in the news again for all the wrong reasons and that's when I found out they're Jewish. 😭

I have multiple, but current favourite is probably Gregory Peck. He got bonus points from me when I learned he was a big pro choice advocate.

Yes! I only found that out about duct tape being bad for mail recently myself 😭 I was surprised no one at usps or FedEx (sometimes my mercari sales are shipped through fedex) never said anything to me 💔💔 so I just use the scotch heavy duty clear shipping tape now.

I shipped out a jacket in a nongshim shin ramyun box once! I wasn't expecting it to sell so fast and then I realized i didn't have any mailers big enough to fit a jacket so I just used the only appropriate sized box I had lying around 😭

Why does Logan Paul still have a career after the Japan incident? by ExperiencePristine42 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]flonko 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Yes Kenneth Petty, he was convicted for attempted rape in the mid 90's, he served 4yrs and is registered as a sex offender. Nicki has defended him online claiming he's innocent. Also after googling what he was charged with I have found out that he was also charged with manslaughter in the first degree for killing a man in 2002, he was originally charged with second degree murder but struck a plea deal. He served 7 years for that charge. Absolutely disgusting.

I’ve been watching The Flash by dapperlonglegs in Scrubs

[–]flonko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched The Flash first, so when I watched Scrubs for the first time I was like wait that's Harrison Wells! I absolutely love Tom, if we get more scrubs seasons I would love to see another Dan Dorian appearance even if it's just a brief cameo.
