muscles like this! posted:Yeah the first episode came out and then they announced it was canceled. Even with the tax thing not being true there was something bad going on behind the scenes because they kind of unceremoniously stopped production before the end of the original production order. They kind of said that it was really expensive per episode and the execs weren't happy with the first couple of episodes. It is pretty obvious that while it had high production values the scripts and acting wasn't up to snuff. Kind of the opposite of Doom Patrol early on. I do wonder what season 2 of that will look like since it is a hit and going to be on the HBO service as well.

Oh boy, a Crisis after show hosted by Kevin Smith  https://twitter.com/CW_Arrow/status/1192931048889430016 On the one hand I'm glad to see the CW eventizing Crisis so much, on the other, it seems weird to only do it after supergirl and the flash.

Everyone may already be aware of this but if you're on Verizon Wireless, check if your Unlimited Plan is eligible for a free year of Disney+. It's not redeemable until Nov 12th but that's the day it starts anyway: https://www.techradar.com/news/get-a-free-12-months-of-disney-plus-on-launch-thanks-to-verizons-disney-deal

His writing sucks, but he’s still a good talker. Him and Chris Jericho did a watch along podcast for Pulp Fiction that was fun. He’s just endlessly enthusiastic. His weed brand sounds good too. Hoping to try some soon.

Open Marriage Night posted:He’s still funny, and he doesn’t do coke, just a lot of weed. I don't believe any of this. Everything that pops out of his mouth nowadays comes off forced and disingenuous like someone faking their emotional output. He shows a lot of signs of being coked out but it could definitely be prescription drugs, some of the serious depression meds can change a person's personality. Either way I can't watch his stuff anymore, it's like having an old friend who's lost their way and there's nothing I can do about it. I mean I knew he'd been off his game for a long time but the first trailer for the new Jay & Silent Bob movie was shockingly bad, so much so that I question my own memories and wonder if he was ever any good.

See, I don't like admitting it but I've been slowly drifting over to Mr. Hootington's side of thinking. Without the lense of nostalgia/being stoned it might just be Mallrats and I'm afraid to watch it because I might be wrong about that one too.

I was a pretty big Kevin Smith day since the original 3 movies came out at pretty critical times in my life and helped move me away from "this was a big movie at the theater so I have to like it, and I've never heard of that movie so it must suck!" mentality. I kept giving him the benefit of the doubt even through his other movies that even when bad generally had something I liked. Then came Yoga Hosers. I didn't like Tusk but I was a fan of his podcast so I knew where it came from, but Yoga Hosers is a crime against humanity. It was so offensively bad that I retroactively hated him instantly.

I've been trying to convince Google for years that I'm "not interested in Kevin Smith" but it keeps pushing his poo poo onto my phone. E: Rob Jefferson is a much better replacement.

https://twitter.com/EW/status/1193967079713628161 I continue to be totally confused as to what WB's strategy is for DC Universe vis-a-vis HBO Max. It makes very little sense to continue maintaining it as a standalone service, especially with three DC shows just announced for Max, but Doom Patrol aside, they're still holding off on confirming whether any of DCU's original content will be on Max as well.
