I'm 4 episodes in... It's OK so far and I could see it go either way.

Is "oh baby" a good thing?

So, the Harry Potter 20yr reunion show by HBO- The main 3 simply don't sound genuine at all when reminiscing about Harry Potter and it seems like they just want it behind them. Their dialogue together, particularly Watson, was so scripted and acted. Complete contrast to the cast of LOTR when they get together, who clearly regard their experience together as the time of their life and would give anything to have it back. I dunno, just my thoughts.

I enjoyed it but it did seem over produced and therefore less genuine
And there were odd exclusions such as not even a mention of Emma Thompson

The Day Sports Stood Still. About Covid halting pro sports in march 2020. Neat look back at a crazy time that seems like it happened a lifetime ago.

For some reason though they skipped “the press conference“ which was the real catalyst for everything going to ####.

Was surprised that they didn’t include much of the mainstay cast like the actor who played Filch, or Dudley.

Yeah it seemed a little over scripted, I think a lot of it as well is due to the fact that they were all kids when they were doing HP

I am going to pour a nice glass of 40 Creek tonight and watch The Many Saints of Newark!

Very exciting.

Just started on this a couple of days ago...amazing so far. Huge bonus of having both Christina Ricci and Juliette Lewis on the cast. Both induced many a boner in my youth.

I never saw the resemblance between Juliette Lewis and her father until now. It’s uncanny.

It seems like they are purposely making Lewis' character look older than the other characters, as she was the party girl when they were teens. They also cast Lewis, who is 7 years older than Ricci.

We just finished it last night, I thought it was great. Looking forward to more. Hopefully this doesn't become a new "Lost".

I really enjoyed it as well but I can definitely see multiple ways it can go off the rails. I'm still hopefully.

They were talking about that yesterday on the radio, using “Lost” as a comparison. Sounds like actors signed on because the writers had a decent plan in place to bring it to a sensible conclusion in 5 years. I am not a fan of the supernatural elements, it has a Stephen King vibe there. Hopefully nobody is a vampire.

Lol. A contest between good and evil would actually make more sense as the ending to Yellowjackets than it did with Lost....
Seriously though I hope they don't do that.

Crave is airing a five part series on The Comedy Store that looks promising
