We should add some extra tax brackets. Right now it's 37% on anything over $539,900.

> George and Tammy

Good to hear people are mentioning it. That show seems pretty under the radar. Yeah, they did a great job with it. Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain are amazing in this.

Well, Yellowjackets is really good so far. Weeds and Californication are classics. I loved Happyish, Super Pumped, and Roadies. Waco & George and Tammy were good; Homeland had some good seasons, City on a Hill had some great writing etc., American Gigolo had a vibe, SMILF had its moments.

They have some great shows. Would be cool if they could stick around & keep making stuff.

I've liked a lot of their stuff, but maybe theyre in 'greenlight everything' mode now. Would make sense to grow the library.

She’s doing a really good job in that role. Kind of nailing the Gen X teenager demeanor, imo.

Sometimes they milk it. Understandably, since everyone wants to keep working. But your burnout might be a result of that, at least in part.

TWD milked it, GoT milked it

Jurassic Park! That is a really fun book.

The Queen’s Gambit

Haha, was hoping someone would appreciate that silly reference.

🎶I saw this thing on ITV the other week. Said that if she played with her hair, she's probably keen. She's playing with her hair well regularly. So I reckon I could well be in.

Never been annoyed by this. It’s a creative and pragmatic choice with the photography. But apparently doesn’t suit everyone’s preference.

Yeah, I knew.

Maybe we are too nostalgic. I seem to recall John Larroquette having some real comedy chops, though.

God? Thought that died out a long time ago.

It definitely wouldn’t work as well for me if I lived in the eastern time zone.

My demons are none of your business!

Nah, I just think it’s a very cool looking sword.

Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m getting at.

You’re probably right though, that if it wasn’t from a known and dear franchise it wouldn’t have gotten so much of that type of attention.

Yeah, I think that is definitely part of what’s going on. Maybe not the whole story, though.

Of course taste is subjective. There’s like an emotional weight behind some people’s dislike of this show, though. Something a little extra there.

At the very least I think there’s some piling on happening.

Yeah I’ve been enjoying it, too. Not really seeing why people hate it so much. Maybe some internet/culture wars thing.

The Cruciform Sword from Warrior Nun comes to mind.

The last season of GoT kind of skips itself, really.

I should really watch The Sopranos at some point. Only seen bits and pieces.

Thought Breaking Bad was merely good, though. It's not one of the greats for me.

Yeah, probably the sort of thing where everyone’s experience is a little different.

Most of my experiences have been fine. The vast majority, really. But there have also been enough shitty ones to make it a consideration.

They also raised prices, arguably lowered the average quality, etc within a pretty short timeframe.

Seems questionable, but I guess they’ve got room to experiment.

If the ad tier does somehow take off, the experiment will have worked.
