You blew it. Absolutely blew it.

In my pre-season review I wrote, "Spruell is so perfect, both in look and in performance, it feels like Martin used a time machine when he wrote the character and based Maekar on Spruell’s future performance."

Between look and performance I don't think anybody better captured the character as written in Martin's story.

I'm actually sick and going to bed early so can't wait to talk tomorrow.

Totally agree. That's why I said "decent" and specifically mentioned putting together talented teams. He's pretty historically bad at resigning guys and it's pretty well documented why.

You have no idea how much I agonized for weeks trying to figure out whose sigil was "a bird in a chalice" only to finally realize it was a lamb and they'd changed House Stokeworth's.

I'll double check when I can. Not always easy to see with screeners. Can't screenshot them and zoom in. Thank you.

Very unpopular opinion: I think Jerry is actually a decent GM who's good at identifying talent. Problem is he's a terrible owner. He's put together some very talented teams as General Manager. but his ego as an owner has led to him consistently hiring awful coaches who won't upstage him.

I've been sitting here trying to pick the funniest Sunny episode and this is the answer.

Look, my profile bio says, "The Nerdist guy who talks about Westeros like it's a real place," so take this as you will:

A Knight of the Seven Kingdom's season one finale is absolutely gorgeous. Just one incredible scene after another. Can't wait to talk about it Sunday night.

And this doesn't even factor in stuff like a) not having Finn ever actually tell Rey his secret despite teasing it constantly b) introducing new characters for no reason and c) introducing a major concept like a Force dyad five seconds before it matters/doesn't matter.

It’s easy to think writing is mainly the transcription of ideas you already haveβ€”that is, until you try to write something worthwhile, and you find what you thought were saying transform into something far more interesting in the process. This skips that last step, and that is *not* an improvement.

Same is absolutely true about the specific ways the enchanted castle works in Beauty and the Beast.

Everyone rightfully lost their mind over A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms episode 4. But I haven't seen anyone discussing what might be my favorite scene of the entire season, when Steely Pate gives Dunk his shield. Absolutely gorgeous in every way, with a world class performance from Peter Claffey.

I had a great season! Ended on a sour note, but I can't complain. I can't sleep, either, but still....

Oh hey, I'm getting messages from 2021 you. Which is weird cause Bluesky didn't even exist then.

We have no idea what would happen if the Bills lost in the Super Bowl this century.

A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS Showrunner On Using GAME OF THRONES Theme

Here's why A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms uses the Game of Thrones theme song for two very special moments.

Simply put, I think about the morality and (possible) cruelty of the Encanto house way too much.
