 Now, they should have given her the motel room and sent him off in the van.  

Of all the cop's decisions, this was actually the one that makes the most sense, if you think about it.  Give her the van so she can haul ass if she actually feels threatened.  If you flip it you've got some young girl stranded in Moab whose only option is to eventually get back in the van with him.

If you haven't seen it Culinary Class Wars is a great Korean cooking show.

Finally started this and thank you for the rec; we're enjoying it thus far but not through it too far yet. So many dishes that I would have loved to taste myself. It's the one show thus far that when the subtitles were going so fast that trying to read and watch got tricky at times and was glad for the back up feature.

Spoiler

Loved the blindfolded tasting but that younger judge ( Chef Anh I believe was his name?) must have super sensitive taste buds. I understand that this is his vocation, but his ability to taste so specifically was amazing to me from a home cook's perspective. His comment on the flowers that someone put on their plate and then during the blindfolded judging, one of the master chefs had some flowers on the plate and I was "Noooooooo! He might be able to smell them! You're going to be out for sure!"

I see there is to be another season released in the latter half of this year.

Enjoying Just One Look.  I don't understand why but Harlan Coben's series all draw me into their weird web of strangeness.

I'm curious. Is The Raid Redemption the movie you're calling The Raid? Gareth Evans directs Raid Redemption, I see.

Havoc looks like fun.

Finished Culinary Class Wars, binged the last 3 episodes this weekend. That was a great watch.

Also watched The Misfits (Pierce Brosnan, Nick Cannon, et al). It was a Mistake. So many better heist movies than this one and unfortunately we took a gamble w/o reading reviews.

Watched the Ruby Frankke doc. I hope that cunt is getting the child abuser treatment she deserves in women's prison. 

My son used to watch some of those family vlogging channels on YouTube but we put a quick stop to it. Fucking shitheads exploiting their kids nonstop for clicks.

I'm liking Zero Day through 2 eps.  Cast is stacked.

Trying to watch it but the lighting is so dark it's hard to enjoy. Every scene looks like it was filmed by candle light.

Every fucking day in Don Turnipland seems like a new episode of Zero Day only it’s too fucking real.  Shit - it IS real!

My girlfriend likes it so we’ve been watching.  I don’t really pay attention but I can tell the gist is woman with no experience but “knows everything about basketball” falls in to a job she’s not qualified for, makes zero mistakes, is perfect, and experiences no character growth. Oh yes and all straight men are stupid/evil. It’s horrendously unfunny garbage.

Yeah, you haven’t watched. She makes a ton of mistakes and is def not perfect.

Jeannie Buss was VP of Business Ops before she become president of the Lakers. It’s loosely based on her

You either like Mindy Kaling shows or you don’t. Not a big middle ground 

i don't like mindy's writing, i love it. her shows have been hit or miss for me though.

i love mindy project and have done multiple rewatches. obviously her office episodes are mostly classics. champions was god awful. enjoyed late night and sex lives. didn't watch never have i ever but heard good things.

this show just seems beneath her. a lot of lazy, tropey bits, unfinished storylines, inconsistent character arcs and plots. it's like 10 people each wrote 1 script at the same time and turned them in without checking with each other. also most of the characters are terrible people but all in pretty much the same way - i get it, they're siblings, that can happen - but probably shouldn't in a tv show. 

also it somehow made me dislike drew tarver, which i didn't think was possible.

and this is without getting into the impossible challenges of writing a show involving professional sports. i won't judge her for those mistakes, as everyone makes them. just let me know when you're done.

The last episode we saw was when she had dinner with Chet hanks. Apparently it’s just a normal thing for married bosses to have one on one dinners with opposite sex employees at romantic restaurants. And then be shocked when people get the wrong idea. Of course her beta doormat cuck fiancée had zero problem at all with any of it. 
 

Also loled at hanks even being cast. It’s definitely a bookworm producer thinking “oooh muscles = athlete” without realizing that Chet does not have a basketball player physique at all. It’s such a stupid show.

yeah, the idea that chet hanks can come in and play a shitty rapper druggie and overall troublemaker seems like a real stretch.

It’s basically a Ted Lasso clone. All clones are subject to degradation, but it’s fine if you don’t take it as seriously as an American football coach moving to England to coach UK soccer

It’s actually closer to Club de Cuervos imo, except Cuervos did it 1000x better

My wife picked this show to watch last night.  I am not a Mindy Kaling fan but I am a Justin however you spell his last name fan.  The tatted up short stocky white guy being a lynchpin point guard is fucking hilarious.  His character is amusing too.  "I saw your titties on the internet". Not knowing what refute means, etc.

Show is better than I would have guessed and at 30 minutes a pop, easy to deal with one or two in a row.
