Finally finished Heated Rivalry. Ended up really enjoying it! I was very critical of Shane the entire show, but I’m self-aware enough to recognize that it’s because I didn’t like how much I identified with him. Much to unpack! Ilya was beautifully handled, and I still think ep 3 was the strongest.

The BAFTA incident is a perfect storm for social media discourse: ableism, racism, and celebrities. I think everyone involved deserves varying levels of empathy. Both intent and impact matter here.

I am a proud Emerald Fennell fan and find the criticism boring. Her movies are fun, interesting, and flawed… I don’t understand why so many think that’s bad.

The criticism of Wuthering Heights feels so blown out of proportion. The movie chose to tell more of a love story, but the destructive nature of Cathy + Heathcliff was clear, even if it wasn’t fully explore it.

Just saw Wuthering Heights and thought it was so much fun! Perfect mix of tragic and horny. The adaptation is way more faithful than it’s been portrayed, but it’s also clearly only the first half of the novel.

I am being 100% serious, this movie is about a Survivor superfan who takes her obsession with the show too far and suffers psychosis as a result.

Never had much of a connection to The Muppets…. but The Muppet Show premiere is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a longtime. I get it now.

Starting my 8th episode of The Pitt in the last 24hrs. I need the buzz that only seems possible from working in an ER.

F1 is being rewarded for proving that original blockbusters are still possible in 2026 rather than artistic quality, and I’m not mad about that

The clanking of the goal post 😭

I change my answer, it’s Sabrina Carpenter using her fame to live out her true dream of being an SNL sketch comic

Was talking about Dan Savage last night but kept calling him Andrew Savage and didn’t realize until right now

BB28 Kalshi is gonna go hard (if it isn’t illegal at that point)

Charli using all her Brat capital to pivot into film has been one of the most interesting career moves from a pop artist in years

BB is such a fascinating relic of the early 2000s. It’s one of the only places left where parasocial voyeurism is still encouraged, when the rest of the culture has learned to frown on that behavior.

The best part about The Traitors not being a real social-strategy game is that I don’t care what happens

Being 14 was fun. The face value prices!

Jane Eyre is one of my favorite books of all time, and I wish I felt that way about Wuthering Heights (it’s fine) :/ sorry to pit sisters against each other

I live for the couple months between Golden Globes & Oscars when everyone goes into a mass psychosis to tear down the films that threaten their favorite from winning

Ok we just watched ep 3 of Heater Rivalry, and I though it was significantly better than the first two. Is this a popular opinion?

I used to be a Traitors hater, but I’ve significantly softened my position when I realized my man criticism was that I wish it was a show/format that it’s never claimed to be I think the more frustrating part is that it’s become the most mainstream “social strategy” show when it’s closer to Bravo

Didn’t even watch the episodes but I feel a contact high from the anger on the tl oh how I missed feeling something over reality tv

I need one of us to get on the civilian version and show em how it's done. But who am I kidding... Honestly, I just need one of us to get on a show and do well in general. 😅 Has anybody done well??? 😂

Objectively hilarious that Rachel Sennott decided to cast Odessa A’Zion and Jordan Firstman as the main characters of her HBO show Feels like a meta joke that only paid off after the season ended

I’ve been gagged by reality tv casting before (Cirie on BB25, All Winners for Survivor 40, etc)… but the day before Rob C enters the Traitors castle is another level

Some late Top 10s for 2025 - Top 10 Albums

Joining reddit’s year long reading of The Count of Monte Cristo. 9 pages down, only 1228 to go this year

the replies???:$/&:$: i’m crying

Love that new song they made for Marty Supreme

I loved One Battle After Another, but sorry I need Timothee to win Best Lead Actor and Sinners to win Best Picture

We will be campaigning until Timmy gets his rightfully deserved Oscar. Movie of the year.

Over the summer, I enjoyed Mickey’s delusions of grandeur. For others, those same antics created a perfect villain to root against. We spend so much time entertaining ourselves this way. When unexpected tragedies happen, I think the humanity behind it hits extra hard. RIP Mickey & love to her family

Marty Supreme MOVIE OF THE YEAR

Bowen leaving SNL mid-season has been an open secret for months, but it still hurts seeing it made official

Patriot Games is genuinely disturbing with awful implications, but the critics need to stop calling it “Trump’s Hunger Games” because they are making it sound way too cool

Today has revealed that many people have an outdated view on YouTube and its presence in the modern media landscape Yes, it’s primarily user-generated content, but it is ubiquitous in the era of streaming YouTube is Netflix’s largest competitor, not Disney+

Saturday Night Live, starring Ashley Padilla

BBTwitter family ❤️❤️❤️

Netflix acquiring Warner Brothers is INSANE Possibly the worst-case scenario? But also the most unpredictable, since they lack the traditional infrastructure of a Paramount of Universal And the congressional hearings for the merger will be a reality show itself… Will be fascinating to watch

Still impressed how BB27 managed to rebound after the Rachel disaster. I was ready to quit the season then became more invested than ever

Binged both The Chair Company & I Love LA this weekend… HBO Sunday night comedies are the greatest part of modern American culture.

Tons of analysis about the WH meeting, but I think it’s mostly another example of how Mamdani is an extremely savvy politician

I haven’t seen Wicked: For Good yet, but I did see the Broadway show this summer The first half is clearly stronger, but the most interesting part of the story for me is the *contrast* between Elphaba & Glinda as a result of their decisions, not their relationship — and that’s what Act II is about

SNL 51 will go down as one of the worst seasons in the show’s history, but wow it’s exciting to watch Ashley Padilla break out as the MVP while being a featured player

I can’t wait to tweet the words “Robert Cesternino” on a daily basis starting in two months

Vanessa rebranding her reality tv career on Squid Game five years post BBCan8 is crazy. But I was there and vividly remember how she was on feeds.

Still processing the fact that all my friends and coworkers will know who Rob Cesternino is in 2026

Matt Belloni saying on his pod today that he fears for The Challenge’s future…..

Finally watching TASK on HBO and I’m ready to call it the best show of 2025 Would have watched much sooner if I realized it was set in the Mare of Easttown cinematic universe!
