Theo Von, SlowFlowPro and Otto von Bismarck inspire every decision I make

The memes about this show, before it even airs, are going to outshine and outlast the show itself.

HBO really should just give it up now

This just shows why you can never trust neocons. They will lie and claim they don't want War but at the first chance they will support it in droves.



Can I get a QRD on what's happened here the last 5 weeks?
I respect Fetterman a lot, but he still votes 99.9% on the side of Democrats. The fact that they're actively trying to throw him away, in a swing state, is political lunacy. Same reason I'm okay with Collins over Murkowski, Thune, etc. I just don't get it

I love the books and I’m not crazy about the movies. I don’t think doing an authentic hbo series that is an authentic love letter to the books is really that difficult an undertaking on the surface. It doesn’t have to be reimagined in any way.



Outside of HBP, the books were faithful enough. We really don't need to completely redo them for garden de-gnoming scenes and the like

There is no chance that this show measures up to the original series. Not because it can't be a well-done show, but because fans of OG potter have the nostalgia element and this romantic view of what they remember those movies to be. This has no chance to capture that.



That's really what puzzles me. A spinoff of the Marauder Years or the early life of Tom Riddle would be fantastic and would generate huge buzz regardless of who they cast in supporting roles. Literally no one wanted this

Arguably the single greatest season of TV ever. Seek help. it is too low on the list if anything. And very rewatchable.



It's the Lady Bird of tv. There's nothing identifiably wrong with it, but everyone knows it doesn't deserve the all-time scores it has. The one thing Chris Chan's brother was right about

I was loving Breaking Bad until the episode where Walt was tripping out in the lab trying to kill a fly. That one episode annoyed me so much that I stopped watching it. I just couldn't get back into it after that episode. Yes, I am an idiot



That episode is followed by the greatest 32 episode run in television :lol:

Freaks and Geeks is good, but it really isn't that good. It probably could've been but it's insane to have it at #18
If you understand that tv characters are often extreme exaggerations of people's most glaring qualities, then yes. I don't know anyone literally like that, but plenty who are the type

At the very least 15. I'd guess 17-19 though.

Trump has more shortcomings than this board wants to admit l, but he's a foreign policy mastermind. I've always said this and I have no idea how people keep doubting him in that arena

re: New Leadership For Iran?

Shah in a provisional government under martial law while preparations are made for a constitutional monarchy. This should be relatively easy as far as nation-building goes
Hopefully Starmer, but I'd put money on Cuba. They'll collapse on their own in all likelihood
They're also ignoring the very different realities of the ethnic and political landscape of Iran. Iran is far closer to Turkey than Iraq
