In season two, the before and after drone shots, explaining how season 1 was re-edited with a higher budget, just brilliant stuff that explains while being hysterical

Character: "I can't believe it's come down to begging."
Narrator: "Please tell your friends about this show."

Such a great episode! The 3D scene, the shocking character death, the “live” ending, and let’s not forget this gem of a line:
“The HBO doesn’t want us.”
“Well then it’s Showtime!”

yes, i suggested he should get credit for the clean up
then you corrected me by saying he shouldn't, because the guy he hired was actually responsible for the clean up

The Arrested Development episode with the Bluth fundraiser that was also kind of about whether the show was going to survive was terrific.

Legends of Tomorrow. I loved Nate's running gag of hating "crossovers."

Same, I just wish that the ad placement was better.

That’s just their designated call sign as assigned by the FCC (broadcast TV and radio transmissions east of the Mississippi are assign a W- plus 3-letter call sign, and broadcasters to the west get a K- plus 3 letters sign). Considering this will be an app, it’s not likely a local CBS affiliated will have much grounds for dispute.

American Vandal. It’s not to too obvious but they’re “self aware” in the second season and say that thanks to Netflix and season 1 being a huge hit, they got more money to “investigate” more crimes. It’s hilarious all around

the real difference is that everything is expensive in Hollywood because of unions, production crews, filming location, taxes and etc...
so with 11 million dollars they are able to do something Hollywood would need like 50 million

If it’s breaking the 4th wall, no one has ever done it better than Fleabag, particularly the twist in season 2.

9/11 was the greatest thing to happen to Rudy Guiliani. If 9/11 hadn’t happened. He would have been remembered as a mediocre mayor at best. Instead he was mayor of NYC when the most devastating attack happened. And in that one moment he demonstrated strength. But that is his only claim to fame. As Joe Biden once said, “Rudy Guiliani, he only mentions 3 things in a sentence, a noun and a verb and 9/11.”

There are some extremely long series (30-50 episodes) in both China and Korea for one season, sometimes with 70-90 minute episode run time in Korean TV where they can't show commercials so the episodes incorporate a lot of product placement versus 44 minutes in American broadcast TV with about 15 minutes for commercial breaks. The upside is one knows in advance that the series will usually end with one season.

I don't live in the city, I'm basing my comments off the word of someone that lives in the city.
> The only thing he did right was make Bratton the police commissioner. That's who really cleaned the city up.

got it.
guy he hired 'really cleaned the city up' but don't credit Giuliani because we don't like him for being too Trump.

so was it Dinkins or was it Bratton?
If Bratton was a good hire, the credit for that goes to Giuliani, that's how executive positions work.

So you're calling those 40 year old engineers, scientists, & project managers in senior positions to be less mentally competent than Joe Biden?
