I think the point was she was always unreliable, so her making what seem like strange choices actually makes sense for her.
She'll worm her way back into Tom's ear to have at least a little bit of a say. But her existence was never tied to running the company, right? Not like Kendall.

Reservation Dogs dedicates a whole episode in its final season to a flashback without any of the stars of the show, and it is still awesome.
This show is great.

What prompted everyone to start watching Suits this year?

It's insane. Alan Sepinwall asked that same question and posited that it is the ultimate breezy background show. Leave it on while doing something else. The Netflix algorithm positioning it as a top choice didn't hurt either.

Another great lesson on Reservation Dogs wrapped in a hilarious episode.
It's okay to cry sometimes, everyone needs people.
I can't overstate how much I love this show.

Is Reservation Dogs on FX? I will start watching once What we Do In the Shadows is over this week.

Yeah FX on Hulu. I'm catching up on What We Do in the Shadows too. Great show as well.

Yeah this season of Shadows was hilarious. Funny story arc with Gizmo. Can’t believe it’s been on 5 seasons already. It has another season already ordered, but I wonder if that’ll be it? Hope not, this show could easily go 10 seasons with how simple it is.
I just finished SmartLess On The Road. Loved it. I could watch Jason Bateman, Will Arnett & Sean Hayes bust each other’s balls for hours, which I pretty much did.

Since AMC+ shows have showed up on Max recently, been watching Dark Winds. Really good mystery thriller based in Navajo Nation.

No joke, until I read the name Daryl Dixon, I had forgotten completely about the Maggie/Negan spinoff after bailing on it after week 2.
Did you stick with it? If so, was it good? I literally heard nothing about it.

I didn't, but I've seen that it was pretty well received by critics. So I assume it got better.
Maybe I'll get around to checking it out eventually.

My God, the Wrestlers show on Netflix is ridiculously bad. Focusing on AL Snow's OVW. Just total carny shit.

So I watched episode 1 of Wrestlers. Fuckin Doug Basham popping up!
If you aren’t a huge wrestling fan and only know a little about it, this is a good show to sort of show you the lives of folks both outside & inside the ring. Now, if you know about wrestling, this is absolutely Heels veiled as a reality show.
A friend who barely watches wrestling asked if he should watch it tonight. I told him yes. It won’t be insulting to him and if it interests him in wrestling more, that’s good.

I kept watching it and it kept getting worse. It's terrible. I think I'm on episode 4 and it's the shits.
I'm gonna finish it, but goddamn.

I’m on episode 4 right now:
The owner dude I looked up on Twitter and I had him blocked already, not knowing he was associated with this at all, haha.
It has its moments (few), but it’s trying too much to be pro wrestling storyline characters instead of real life people struggling to be pro wrestlers.
Like why do we need talking heads from that dude just hanging out of the window of his car in a parking lot? Could they not interview him in the locker room like a normal person? That was weird

This show is why people hate the idea of pro wrestling. Goddamn none of these people are in good shape mentally.

Mr Pectacular Jesse Godderz looks so out of place on this show. He’s pretty well known from his time on Big Brother, had a run in TNA and for years he’s been just a dude in OVW. I’m surprised he’s never popped up anywhere else.

Same with Shera. He was a name for a bit in Impact. Even had a quick run in wWE developmental.
He shouldn't be languishing away with the rest of these fucking carnies.

Holy hell if there was ever a wrestling carny line.

I liked how when Al & his wife were talking about all his injuries, they showed a clip of Bart Gunn applying a wrist lock when he was Leif Cassidy, haha

Ok so series over. If they would’ve focused on different wrestlers, I think this could’ve been a great series. But there’s zero reason to cheer for the Haley girl (especially after the episode about domestic abuse, with her admitting to hitting her boyfriend, who is equally as unlikeable).
The owner is a douche throughout the series and there’s zero reason to want to root for him.
They barely focused on Jesse Godderz & Leila Grey, who have the most appeal visually for your audience.
Also I know Shera would ultimately get hurt, but his story was fascinating and deserved more time. You genuinely want him to succeed.
You do want Al (and most of the crew who bust their butts) to make this work in the end. So I’d give this a 4/10.

It's been amazing. The last episode. So good.
Hayden Christensen getting props now after so many years of being buried for the prequels is great to see.

Winning Time was cancelled by Max, so the series ended with the Celtics winning the 1984 Championship.
So weird.
