That show was so good and fun up until Arturo gets written off. Then pretty much lost it completely when they axed Wade. Still some really entertaining episodes.

I'm familiar with Messier. But the other guy is talking over him. Was he an all star or is he more like Biz on the TNT broadcasts?

I wouldn't consider myself anything above a casual NHL fan who watches the playoffs so I'm not familiar with PK. Was he a player at the level of Messier?

Baseball in a few-game scenario is a fluky sport. A regional tournament is dumb. The MLB playoffs are dumb. A full-season is a much better way to determine a champion.

It's not a better way - and it is just a stupid statement - when the full season has such a wide disparity in talent levels across the conferences like it does in college baseball.

Lots of diminishing returns on the show, but the first few seasons are great television.

The day when completely original "AI actors" become movie stars is closer than any of us want to admit. Mimicking real actors is proof of the technology, but that's not where the money is going to be made. Making movies that pander to specific interests, with original "AI actors" (so the movie maker isn't paying huge royalties to real actors) that they hope will catch on, is where it's going. Tilly Norwood is the goal, and we will see how much pushback there really is. They just haven't created any full-length movies yet to test it. I think there's enormous pressure for the first full-length full-AI movies to be very good, otherwise it will suffer a big setback as the masses see it as just a weak gimmick.

This seems like perfect gimmick to utilize in those horrible vertical short movies that show up on Instagram and Tiktok and seem written by AI already.

With all these rewatch podcasts - I'm a little surprised we haven't seen one for The OC or one for One Tree Hill.

Rachel Bilson did one with actress that played Julie Cooper for the OC.

The main three women in One Tree Hill did one as well.

Joss Whedon sabotaged his career so he’s probably out.

Don't know how any sort of revival, reboot, etc works without Whedon. He seemed to be the driving creative force behind the show.

Opening drive (I think) interception against Tech when Nuss left it about 10 yards short.

I always found this scene cathartic. I think you're supposed to feel bad for Fiona in the moment, but I thought she earned this one. Song is catchy too.

Circling back 2 days after I watched…

I just realized I don’t understand the opening scene of the season finale at all. I thought it would explain itself by the end of the episode, but I completely forgot about it.

I was dying laughing when the fat kid shot the old guy with the 3D printed gun, but it makes zero sense in the context of the story. It could almost stand alone as a ITYSL skit

Lou Diamond Phillips and the guy who was shot are business partners tied to Red Ball Market Global, at least according to the documents Ron found in LDP's office. Presumably they've scammed people before based on the kid shooting him. Seems like there are a few different conspiracies going on at the moment now.
