posted by ptown_trojans_1The last 3 episodes of Book of Boba Feta were awesome. Makes we wonder what the hell were they doing with those first four episodes.
I'm watching Billions as well. They are making a nice change up with the main characters.
Also started Archive 81 on Netflix. 1 episode in and its a nice creepy 90s style horror devil cult show.
That’s because the last 3 episodes were basically previews to the next Mandalorian season.
posted by iclfan2Knocked out the new Reacher on Prime. Not the greatest acting, but thought it was a good show, especially if you read the books.
I liked it a lot better than the movies.
posted by ptown_trojans_1Peacemaker ended yesterday on HBO Max. Outside of Loki, it is probably the best superhero show out there. James Gunn directed about half the episodes and the finale was funny as hell.
I will have to give it a 2nd shot as I loved Loki but Peacemaker I stopped halfway into Ep2 as I thought it sucked.
posted by justincredibleI’m 5 episodes into my rewatch. I forgot so much.
I think for me, the one moment that shocked me the most was the end of season 3 when the lawyer unexpectedly got her head blown off.
Reminded of earlier in the season when she asked the driver/enforcer “if you ever get that call about me, will you at least let me know before?” He said yes, but he obviously did not.
I’m not convinced the slap wasn’t pre-planned. The Smith’s are both terrible.
posted by gutShe's losing her hair because of a disease. I'd say that's pretty clearly way over the line. It's extremely rare for women, and has to be very traumatic.
So what can a comedian make fun of? Pete Davison deals with dad dying in 9/11. Half of them deal with infidelity jokes.
It’s hair loss. Get a grip. I’ve seen people going thru chemo have a better perspective on their hair loss, and they are dying. Jada is just dealing with feeling self conscious in public.
Charlie Villanueva had to deal with KG talking to him non-stop and acted like less of a bitch than Jada and Will.
Honestly, if we just called it “female balding” instead of disease, would anyone be defending Will this hard? I seriously think the word disease being attached to something as benign as hair loss has warped perceptions here.

Me too.
I’m on season 4, episode 6 so I’ve rewatched all but 2 epis
posted by Laley23I made this exact argument this morning. Had Chris Rock made jokes about Lebron's balding, no on would have cared.I don’t get the Chris Rock hate on this. He’s a comedian, and they are there to roast each other or the celebs as presenters. Wills a comedian, he knows how it works.
If Jada had cancer, over the line. She has Alopecia…come on. I can’t make fun of LeBrons reversing hairline anymore? Like is comedy that dead that we cannot make fun of someone who is bald and doesn’t want to be?
…also, Will thought it was funny AF until Jada gave him the look.

Smith laughed at the joke before he decided (upon seeing his wife's pissy expression) that he needed to take another route. Fake dude too. Chris Rock is small. Imagine if someone large was MCing up there. Smith would have sat their and chuckled. Imagine if it were a female host. That wouldn't have happened obviously.
Only in Hollywood can someone pull a move like that and then get a standing ovation a little while later for lecturing on "God's mission for me is to be a protector".
Chemo? Punch his ass.
Alopecia? Not "fighting words", absurd overreaction.
I know 2 men with alopecia…not the best situation but both take it well. It’s an odd look.
Had a 5th grade girl develop it and it was very sad, wasn’t easy to deal with.
A Hollywood actress…..that’s also a touchy subject. I know looks are artificial but after 50 years of being beautiful with hair…..it’s gotta be touchy for a good while.

Of course the subject will be touchy. But thats comedy. Thats why I am not understanding the whole reaction. No one would just sit there and make fun of someone with Alopecia. But when you are a hired comedian, to make fun of the audience, thats pretty fair game.
Whatever. Will Smith came off as a psycho bitch. His speech after was such an embarassment.
lol

And so it begins.
lol at Jason Bateman.
Also, I am waaay out of touch with Hollywood. I recognize Bateman, Ron Howard, and Taika Waititi from this "A-listers" photo. And I only know Waititi because we saw JoJo Rabbit and I had never heard of him before that.
Anyone else way over their cap of how much they can talk or care about this.
