I also saw a few people saying theyโd not be watching due to the addition of Joel Dommett.
Something tells me theyโve only seen him on Masked Singer. (I actually think heโs good on that!)
Turns out my penchant for recognising actors in TV shows/films extends to animals. I was sure the monkey in a Veronica Mars episode was Marcel - the internet confirms this is the case.

I think I watched Mulholland Dr. early in my Lynch journey so this rewatch is making me appreciate so much more of the direction and the perfection that is Naomi Watts. ๐

As a British person I enjoyed your explanation of the Cracker Barrel story!

I donโt really โcomfort watchโ TV shows but Iโve put this on in the background while I pack my house for moving. I have laughed out loud many times already.
A work of sheer genius.
Just watched @joshgondelman.bsky.social โs special (here youtu.be/RAvNlgpdKKo?...)
It is very cruffinโ good - I would recommend it!
I still sometimes think about the Sex & The City box set lying in my mumโs living room that no-one would take responsibility for owning. It was almost certainly my ex-SILโs but it was bizarre she wouldnโt own up. ๐ ๐

There are some good companion characters but I feel they were often a bit underwritten.

I think itโs one of the best games Iโve ever played but itโs taking me years to get through as I really really donโt want it to end. Just finished 16:00-17:00 today.
Iโve barely seen any April Fools stories this morning. I guess when the news is so unhinged it would be hard to come up with somethingโฆ
