yeah, see it ASAP, then watch the show (especially the original webseries bc most of the archival footage is from that era rather than the 2017-2018 Viceland series), then watch the movie again if you get the chance.

remember reading a story somewhere that when they showed up to the practice where they first hashed out "Rock Lobster," Ricky Wilson was beaming ear to ear and told the rest of the band "I just wrote the dumbest riff ever."

it's too bad the Raptors have a game tonight, otherwise Mamu could go party with Flavor Flav and the US Women's Hockey team

at its peak the show did more in 15 seconds than some do in their entire run

people say ESPN's real journalism has gone downhill but I don't see anyone else breaking the news that England has undone the Reformation.

When I went to the game last week, they were giving away fortune cookies for the New Year. Mine said β€œyour future is as bright as the beam in the sky,” and I was like, is that a threat?

Yeah 80/20 stand-alone/mythology was the sweet spot for that show and tbh probably every show. I want less lore!!!

Ryan Coogler do you have the courage to do what it takes to make this great (completely abandon the turgid, unworkable mythology that tanked the latter half of the show). I believe in you.
