Reply to TV star Paul O'Grady dies aged 67 by ucd_pete

Some special individuals really add to the culture and essence of a place or era, and leave an indelible mark in our minds, Paul was one of those few good people, whose warmth, humour and kindness could be felt across the airwaves, he will be sadly missed.

Both of those things are mentioned in the dialogue, a couple times I think.

Also, so much of this information is just public knowledge know - most people get that increased temperatures would have bad consequences for public health or lead to the extinction of certain species.

Reply to Is Succession on the Mount Rushmore? by andmyk1

Most definitely in the top 10 for me.

Probably contains the most imaginative dialogue that I’ve seen since the Sopranos and at its best, it’s like a slow moving train wreck that demands your full attention. Seriously, the writers treat board meetings as intensely as GoT treated dragon battle sequences and it’s all the better for it.

Reply to comment by Artistic-Toe-8803 in ‘The Night Agent’ Opens Big for Netflix: The thriller from Shawn Ryan has the third biggest series premiere week on record in the streamer's internal rankings by jovanmilic97

Netflix' biggest rivals own publishing companies and TV news networks, so "news" that say how "Netflix is dying" is always kept alive and most people just readily repeat what they see/hear without thinking.

Reply to 'Rabbit Hole' Review – Kiefer Sutherland’s fun new thriller is like 24 … but even wilder by Neo2199

Two episodes in and it has absolutely zero to do with the show synopsis description so far but I absolutely love it. Its like a high-octane, higher-stakes reverse heist.

I really don't see any "24" in it, other than it has Keifer Sutherland. I don't even know why people keep mentioning the show, its not remotely close to it at all.

HARVEY: "You think you can waltz in here and change the name on the wall? Not on my watch, Mike!"

MIKE: "Damn it, Harvey, this isn't just about the name on the wall. It's about respect, and you know it!"

HARVEY: "Respect? You want to talk about respect? You were a fraud, Mike! And I took you in!"

MIKE: "You took me in because I was the best damn associate this firm has ever seen. I earned my place here!"

JESSICA: "Enough! Both of you! This firm is bigger than the two of you and your egos. We have to be on the ball here."

HARVEY: "On the ball? You're the one who brought Hardman back! How's that for being on the ball?"

JESSICA: "I did what I had to do to protect this firm, Harvey. And I'll do it again if I have to."

MIKE: "And what about me? What about what I've done for this firm?"

HARVEY: "You've done a lot, Mike, but that doesn't mean you get to put your name on the wall."

MIKE: "You know what, Harvey? Fine. But you better believe I'm going to keep fighting for it."

HARVEY: "Then you better bring your A-game, because when it comes to fighting for this firm, I never back down."

JESSICA: "Gentlemen, we're done here. There's a lot of work to do, and I expect both of you to be on the ball."
