Listened to this earlier, VERY good interview.

She was a real standout during her short career.

Gone before 40, what a shame.

It’s trendy to shit on Netflix but they’ve produced plenty of quality programs over the years.

If you can’t find something good there outside of their mediocre attempts at sitcoms, that might be a young thing.

The phrase “turned on” has had multiple meanings over the years. Obviously there’s the implication of sexual arousal but it’s also meant “high” as well as simply “excited”.

Benoit never looking through bent back tulips was resoundingly disappointing to my dumb little brain.

S. Darko is SO bad.

Didn’t All In The Family have like 7 different spin offs?

Happy Days has a handful too.

Dear All of TV,

Please build your global release schedule around me.

Hugs and kisses,
