Alright, folks. This app has been removed from my phone’s homepage. If you desire pithy insights, the 🔵 ☁️ era has begun.

I thought @KevinTPorter ending Ellen’s career single-handedly saved us from this.

Not sure who the Costco Guys are? You get a DOOM! Here’s everything you need to know about A.J., Big Justice, and the Rizzler before they bring the BOOM! to the Tonight Show later this evening. trib.al/G0EfIxW

I decided to review #Shrinking for Episodic Medium ahead of S1, believing a @VDOOZER hangout show is always going to give us something to talk about. Thrilled to be returning for Season 2 as the show—and our discussion—confronts its cliffhanger ending. episodicmedium.substack.com/…

Twitter, if you were to identify the definitive example of a streaming show stretching what would have been its pilot over multiple episodes (or an entire season), what would it be? (Bonus points if an average college student knows it exists)

Okay I want to be clear to @VDOOZER that I also have nice things to say about this show I enjoyed, but I WILL also be ranting about day-for-night, my greatest nemesis. Download the Substack App to tune in!
I’ll be going live on Episodic Medium with @Memles at 3pm ET today to chat about Bad Monkey. It’ll be my first Substack video, and it’ll be fun. We're gonna discuss the show's extremely problematic day-for-night shooting.

It’s comforting in a way that my worst enemy is out there and lighting season three of Heartstopper. Keep ‘em close, y’know?

Look, I just think that teens should ALSO be annoyed when an author does a book talk with zero introduction and moderates his own Q&A. We need to teach the youth.

I admire the bizarro spirit of making a sequel specifically to troll the worst people who liked the original movie, but that only works if I’M having fun while they’re NOT, y’know?

Is THIS the nadir that finally forces the Grammys to address the absurdity of the eligibility criteria for this category? (LOL of course not).

I am going to be blunt and say that if switching to a thematic analysis of the show and its characters doesn’t get me an invite onto this show, I’m taking @jennafischer and @AngelaKinsey to Podcast Court.

Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey have announced the next phase of their "Office Ladies" podcast now that their years-long rewatch of "The Office" is coming to an end. wp.me/pc8uak-1lEO55

I don’t pretend to know what matters to undecided voters (read: insane people), but *I* am deeply soothed by listening to them tell Walz he’s out of time after he’s already finished his answer.

(It’s amazing how much more infuriating it is when someone who clearly DOES know civics blatantly misrepresents civics. Feels bad, folks!)

If you've ever wanted an oral history of the early days of episodic TV criticism, my full 3-part discussion with Noel and Emily about #Lost, their great book, and how our experiences writing about the show in the 2000s shaped us is a solid start. episodicmedium.substack.com/…

It's also the last day for our yearly pledge drive, with 20% off yearly subscriptions to help Episodic Medium keep the spirit of those early days alive. Here's our full fall schedule of what we're covering for paid subscribers: episodicmedium.substack.com/…

This thread convinced me that people just…don’t have basic game show literacy?
this is a real game show currently airing on Fox...
