Melon Husk is more Alex Rook than Tony Stark. Rook really shows his true colours in s02e09. Monomaniacal sociopath.

Zoie Palmer gives such a fantastic performance as the Android in Dark Matter. She absolutely masters the glassy expression and terse but diplomatic speech pattern you'd expect from a digital personality in 2015. I wonder if Siri was a source of inspiration for her portrayal?

Great moments from season 3 of Ted Lasso (s03e11);

Jamie Tartt: "I feel like the guy in the Red Bull commercial who's pushing that big rock up the hill, but he's lost his wings. Roy, I feel like ... I feel like I've lost me wings, Roy. Where the fuck are ma wings Roy?!" (bursts into tears)

Roy Kent: "Fuuuuuuucccck."

Pure pathos. Simultaneously totally relatable and utterly hilarious.

#QuestionOfTheDay what's the worst heel turn (good character revealed/turned evil during the story) in a work of fiction you've consumed? Why was it a bad decision? (Bad execution? Bad idea if general? Goes against character/arc/theme? Twist for the sake of a twist? Etc)

Part of the problem of selling a show or movie to CBS or Paramount or Skydance, or booking an acting role on a project of theirs is purely business.

If potus decides he doesn’t like a project, CEOs George Cheeks, Brian Robbins & David Ellison will kill the project regardless of how well it does. They did just now to Colbert & The Late Show (number 1 in its time slot).

Why start business w/them that hurts others & will hurt you the moment they feel like it.

#QuestionOfTheDay fictional prospect draft! You have the #1 pick in a draft of fictional heroes/heroines BEFORE they became heroic or powerful. You have no idea who the rest of your cast or party will be and no idea what other fictional characters you can acquire later or put around your draft pick so they may not necessarily develop into the powerful/heroic character they do in normal canon.

You can pick from any work of fiction.

Who do you choose to lead your party in a quest of unknown challenges and difficulty?

Watching the MLB All-Star game.

Here's a simple hack if you have one of those insane old remotes like mine with a million buttons and a tiny mute button that makes cutting the BS at breaks a challenge:

Take a small file (even a nail file would do) and carefully notch the edge of the remote beside where the mute is.

Now you can find it by touch in a moment every time.

(De nada!)
