early on the show seemed headed in that direction but never went there

what the psychic said last week could be interpreted to be about Ted or Sam

Discovery is based in New York which has its highest state tax brackets that start $1 million, $5 million, and $25 million.

While a great many people might seethe at TV personalities with drag acts you have to keep in mind that there are huge differences in attitudes of Americans depending on what states you are talking about. Ru Paul for example has had his Drage Race show for 14 years now and AFAIK he started gaining prominence in the late '80s (TIL he was in the B-52's Love Shack video)

Jack Bauer

Jason Bourne

James Bond

Better than Gen-Z complaining about what can and can't be made yesterday

Between this and some of the cast members of The Office, saying this about their show and looking at some of the shows are still on going like Family Guy, Always Sunny, Rick & Morty etc.

I'm very much convinced none of these actors, have the slightest clue what they are talking about and just want to sound progressive.

Because I'll be honest, I have never seen a single person actually say Friends or The Office was offensive, if anything it feels like they are some of the tamer sitcoms both back in the day and now.

Lalo Fucking Schifrin is still alive.

At least for me, it was one of those shows which kind of sneaks up on you. I gave it a try because someone recommended it to me, and I found it really fun to watch.

Can someone just make a highlight of all the good fights?

Band of Brothers and Chernobyl are both mini-series…Succession is better than Deadwood and Game of Thrones simply because both those shows didn’t end well (Deadwood cancelled and GoT is GoT). You could definitely argue the other shows you listed are better though I wouldn’t say “considerably”, they’re all in the same ballpark

He's goosed.

Please just tell us where you meant to put the comma.

Honestly, not only was it a great episode, it made previous episodes this season better. What felt disjointed before came together all at once.

I’m assuming this year includes shows from 2022 because nothing in 2023 so far is on Succession’s level

Through the 80s at least! There's a fantastic episode of the 80s twilight zone by George RR Martin that has a lot of moments land strangely now because of how they're using the word as a medical term. The infamous quantum leap reveal also comes to mind. Though I'm sure the word was already being used as an insult at the time, there simply wasn't another word for it.

EVA?

Hope to see a lot of success in WBD's future, for competition's sake.

I think you can't really approach murder mystery series with Reddit in mind. When you have literally thousands of people that can collaboratively theorize in one place, it's very likely people are going to come close to figuring things out. Seems a little futile to try to work against that, because you don't want to write something that is so convoluted no one was ever going to see it coming. It never feels well-written when the answer just comes out of nowhere and isn't something anyone could've predicted.

Write for the people who aren't on Reddit after every episode trying to figure things out. Even as big as Reddit is, they're still a comparatively small minority.

what wasn't? It's been a year

Probably because of how unelectable the only opposition party is now. Corbyn stood a good chance but he was absolutely hammered by the papers and news here. Now look at Labour. Starmer can't even name one bloody policy he wants to put in place and he's backed down on so many things-he claimed he's an LGBTQ+ ally and yet he refused to speak up in favour of trans rights and has multiple transphobes on his front bench that he does nothing about.

England is now stuck with Tory and Tory Lite. We're fucked either way. Doesn't help that Labour SHOULD be appealing to younger voters so that they can actually get the votes like Corbyn did. If Labour wants to be elected, they need to shift back to the left instead of being centrist and appeal to younger voters who lean left more than right.

As is... There's no party that stands a chance against the Tories in the next election and all the older generations keep voting those fuckers in.

I'm confused how an episode that was jam packed with action while advancing the plot, meant that it veered of course

Most likely he will be paid via a personal holding corporation and then pay himself via dividends to reduce the tax burden.

If he really wants to reduce taxes he will just take loans and only take personal income to pay off the interest. Its called "borrow and die" and its how the ultra rich basically avoid paying taxes.

Schemes like these are why the tax rate of personal income is irrelevant for the rich, they dont pay it at all.
