I would have said Party Down but they went ahead and did it. I haven’t seen the new episodes yet though…

Thank you for doing this, now I can more effectively manage my cat community subscriptions to get the perfect ratio of cat to everything else!

Why does nba.com list J. Hood-Schifino at 6-4 but then in their analysis call him a ‘big point guard, standing at 6-foot-6’? Weak. Anyway, I am not sure about the pick considering that the Lakers need to get better ASAP. Seems like a pick for the post-Lebron future, I guess.

Cat regret, lol.

On book 9 (Winter’s Heart) of the Wheel of Time right now, albeit for the 4th time! If it’s your first read of the series I hope you’re enjoying it, it’s my favorite of all time. Book 11 is one of the very best!

I also just started The Prince of Nothing series, for which I’ve heard good things. I’ll have more to say about it later.

IMO, yes, it was a good first season with some flaws that will hopefully be improved upon just like the first book was good (not great) and definitely improved upon by subsequent entries.

I’ve read the series 3 times, and am on my 4th read (book 9) right now. Having re-read book 1 in 2019, I had a pretty clear memory of it when the show premiered and was glad to see some repetitive and inconsistent content from book 1 cut and replaced with more integral subject matter (e.g., the warder bond).

Overall, I am most happy to see the world and characters introduced to a larger audience, who seem to be finding the books in the lull between seasons. I also typically give adaptations plenty of leeway to tell the story in a way that works for the new medium. I am psyched to see how they did with season 2.
