DRW50

Thank you for confirming. I wasn't sure.

I'm still seeing people spreading rumors the show has already been canceled and spamming comment sections anywhere and everywhere. It's so dispiriting. The show certainly has flaws but overall I have enjoyed this season and I hope they get another. The Becky story has had some great moments for Lecy Goranson (and I'm glad the somewhat offputting adoption angle with the guest star lesbians is already over). I loved getting to see Crystal again too. I never thought I'd be saying that in 2018.

This is Nancy Frangione in the ad at around 25 minutes (this is around the time she was on AMC I believe), but is that Rebecca Hollen with her?

Thank you for the Millette article. Is this Teri Keane in the ad around 12 minutes?

Geez I'm in tears watching that.

Oh that liberal media. https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/a25304542/meet-the-press-climate-change-chuck-todd-danielle-pletka/

Kevin McCarthy shoved his state's GOP delegation right off a cliff!

If you think that the circumstances in Georgia are the same as in Orange County or Utah, then there's no point in us even discussing this.

I'd seen little bits of this (the part about the White House needing beautiful things is shown many times with Jackie O footage) but hadn't watched the whole thing. It's very informative and Jackie's charisma and intelligence seep through. What a contrast to what we have now.

This is a little Ryan's Hope pre-union, beyond being a beautifully written and acted piece of television. Louise Shaffer is in the hair color ad around 36 minutes, and Bernie Barrow plays the justice of the peace.

Corsi was one of the Swift Boaters, wasn't he? Another reminder that the W era and the Trump era are not as far apart as many like to claim.

This is really important - it could destroy Youtube and much of the Internet.

This is...something...

More of Trump pushing the EU and China together. https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-and-china-break-ultimate-trade-taboo-to-hit-back-at-trump/

They're just supporting characters. I think DJ helps make his sisters feel more human and less like joke machines. I also think that Geena would be fine if they could write a role for her beyond being Christian.

Between this and the rumors that Roberts does not like Kavanaugh, I will laugh if the GOP manages to self-own yet again with forcing right wing judges to moderate in order to stave off insanity. https://www.politico.com/story/2018/11/21/supreme-court-chief-justice-john-roberts-calls-out-trump-for-his-attack-on-a-judge-1011203

To me most of the stories are complete garbage, especially anything with Hayley or about baby Abi. The Ruby story is barely about her and is instead about more of the show hating men and especially hating Martin. Only the Dr. Legg and Tiffany stories have my interest.

I'm not watching regularly, so I'm not the best judge. The show is a bit sluggish but there are some interesting things. There is a very disturbing story being built up with David's son Jacob being groomed by David's new girlfriend, Maya.

Were Chuck Todd and the usual pretentious types at Slate out there saying this about media darling Marco? Oh wait, they only care when a Democrat says it. Sherrod Brown is right. They don't want to admit it because it upsets their narrative.

Ben McAdams has regained the lead in the UT-04 count, which looks to be winding down. There are still some ballots to look at, but not sure it's enough to help Love. If he wins that will be #39. Meanwhile, back in California, GOP Congressman David Valadao's lead has steadily shrunk with each slow update. He's now under 1,000. If he wins that will be #40. (big IF for either of these men, of course) I hope they get to 40, as it's a nice round number...all the better for the GOP, the media, and sellouts like James Carville to choke on. If Cox wins, that is 7 California seats lost in one cycle. That is a decimation. And those seats will be very expensive and very difficult to get back, which means a 7-seat firewall the Democrats did not have before now. Kevin McCarthy threw his own state delegation to the wolves in his fruitless quest to be speaker. It is just so, so good.

I've seen some articles about China/US relations and the Saudi stuff, but it does get much less coverage than things like how Trump called Schiff "Schitt" and the latest power struggles in the White House. In the case of North Korea I think it's because the media don't want to admit they also got badly played - by Trump as well as by North Korea (who also played Trump of course). I read that Cuba's leader was recently feted in North Korea. Media darling Marco is all over that I'm sure. It seems fairly obvious things are going to get really bad on multiple fronts soon, and the media won't want to talk about that, because to them it's boring and it won't get ratings. Most of them hate America anyway, aside from the pleasure they get at sneering at the yokels and the liberals. For all their dogged efforts to stop Democrats from winning the House, they are clearly gleeful about having Pelosi to kick around again, and also to get to obsess over anything and everything with Alexandria Cortez (who seems more than happy to be in the media spotlight anyway). They will make Democrats responsible for any ills in this country over the next 2 years, and idiots will be happy to go along.

It took me a little while to recognize Emma Samms. Billy Warlock has aged very well.

Knowing him, it's 500 copies of Marty getting gang raped.

Jimmy Kimmel's Bryan Cranston interview has a brief Loving clip, which their Youtube channel makes sure to remind us is "embarrassing." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Zgtb4v-xbA
