My big gripe about Bo-Katan is that if she is such a critical character to the story of Mandalore as a whole… then give her a show of her own and let that play out.
The Mandalorian is about Din Djarin and his relationship with Grogu. That’s the story. Getting away from that to wrap up a dangling storyline from a decade ago in another series was a mistake.

I like the Mandalorian. I just wish the people who run the show liked him as well. It was hard to tell in Season 3 of “BO KATAN! and… the Mandalorian.”
I’ll watch the movie.

Dale had LSU in the national spotlight back in the day for a period of time. We rivaled Kentucky in the SEC and the LSU v Ky games were must see tv. We were on the big stage for awhile there. We played several of the big timers in ooc games. We had star players, All Americans.
Agreed. I’m so tired of people saying LSU has no basketball credibility or relevance. There was a time not so long ago when making the tourney wasn’t even a question. The only question was what the seed would be. You can be successful in basketball at LSU. You just have to say yes to the right people and no to the wrong ones.

Sorry but doctors, teachers and plumbers don't fill my entertainment needs
People admire great singers, musicians, and dancers without realizing they could sing, play music, and dance themselves. You can create works of art. You could write plays and short stories. Why rely on people you share nothing in common with to entertain you?
There’s so much you can do every day to be a creative person. Even if you’re not any good at it… you can still be entertained. And you won’t even be bad at it for long.
The Kraken, left for dead in mid-December, are back in playoff position with two games to go before the Olympic break.
The Kraken first line of McCann, Beniers, and Eberle is playing like an actual NHL first line.
Beat VGK on the road last night… now it’s on the Ducks and Kings Tuesday/Wednesday. These games will tell if they have the stuff to be in the playoffs or not. Worth watching these!

I ran the mile in high school a long time ago and I wasn’t bad at it. This dude would have beat me by about a quarter of a mile. In a mile race.
Holy shite.
Holy shite.

He played a big part in one of the funniest television shows of all time. Thank you, Demond!

Is this a non-pro cast?
I liked the show’s concept, but I didn’t like the heavy reliance on reality show stars. I want to see new people, not “all-stars” who form cliques based on the network their show was on.

I’m excited about this even though I did not like Book One of Stormlight. I didn’t dislike it because of the story or the characters… I disliked it because I thought it was too much world building and flashbacks for me.
A quicker paced format like television could be just the trick for me. I’m in.

The right memes way better than the left, but the left has utterly kicked the right's arse on the online guerilla campaign on this shite. They need to fire some people and get some ringers in there, pronto.
This is a criticism that conservatives need to take to heart. It is not unkind to point out a glaring weakness. We drop the ball on messaging on everything. ICE, government shutdowns, Greenland, you name it. Most of the time we say nothing and when we do, we highlight the weakest of 10 possible arguments we could make otherwise with greater effect.
Man… they have got to be joking with this.
Sinner has one of the best first hours of a movie I’ve seen. Beautifully put together. Honest.
But it’s like the second half of the movie was produced by a 13 year old.
Watch the movie. You will probably like it on balance. But 16 Oscars nominations? lol.

Trade rumors… look for Shane Wright to be moved from Seattle.
Kraken fans love him but he hasn’t developed. Could be packaged with picks for a desperately needed goal scorer.

The show has something really going for it, and it’s that the two leads are very likable. So many shows get this core requirement wrong.
If a show ends and you want more… that’s a good sign. I want more.
That all being said… the outdoor shite was so unnecessary and bad. Why? And don’t blame me for focusing on a 2 second scene like that… I’m not the one who put it front and center in the first few minutes of getting to know the character. There were other ways of humbling him or signaling to the viewer to not take things so seriously. Why this way? fricking horrible. Really.

I’m not terribly surprised by anything Star Trek pushing boundaries. That’s always been its thing.
But ordinarily the franchise also delivers on characters and story.
The difference here is that this show just flat sucks. And the boundary pushing is just annoying and unnecessary. Aren’t we past all this now? An all-female bridge team, for example. Who cares? This is 2026, not 1972.

He’s so full of shite. So Winds of Winter is the priority, but he has to do everything else first? Okay.
Look, dude… everyone has lost faith in you as far as finishing the series is concerned. You have our permission to walk away. Once you’re dead, someone less talented will finish it for you and no one will really care if it was you or not.

I think this show sucks so far. To me, this is just a parade of quirks and quips with bad acting and weird writing choices.
I’m not liking Holly Hunter in the captain’s chair as much as the idea of (younger) Holly Hunter in the captain’s chair. She’s too old and she doesn’t play the part with enough gravity. She seems weak to me. I actually like her as an actress. Just not how she fits the role on the screen.
I think the show gets the team aspect of Star Trek right. So I will give it credit there… but I just don’t like a lot of the characters here.
Maybe it will get better. I dunno. I didn’t like Discovery’s last couple of seasons, and this feels like it to me.

What a joke.
The irony is this “force” is more than they would muster if Russia or China showed up to take the island. Greenlanders should take note. You can be defended by the most powerful military on earth… or put your trust in these EU also-rans.

Look man… that is a living woman, serving the postal courts. She doesn’t have to provide ID. Asking for it is treason.
