RIP Laugh-In's Ruth Buzzi @ 88
gonna say im halfway through andors second season and final season. plot-wise it feels like its dragging a little. we already know it ends sometime before the movie rogue one begins but feels like a lot of work needs to be done in the final five episodes. beyond that it is a real treat for people that like star wars well enough but are kind of tired of the house style and the jedi-centric world. its not a perfect show but its refreshing in tone and temperment and looks great.
havent been watching a lot of soccer lately but caught barcelonas champions league semifinal match yesterday. was first time i really watched yamal play. dont know if he will reach the heights of these two over the next 20 years but he is a fun player to watch and an obvious superstar in the making.

Anyone recall a 1980s NYC film of a skinny blond girl walking around the city for 90-120 minutes not saying a word, but encountering many strange real things in the city (like a rooster/cock fight on the Lower East side)?

just jumped in and the cringe factor is high, but I think that's the point.
watched the dylan biopic with my parents since i knew my mother was interested and someone had already bought it on amazon prime. thought it was pretty shit. if leaving you with the sense that he was a complete unknown then mission accomplished i guess. it was especially hokey to its credit or over expositional but i dont feel like i know any more about dylan than i did going in and the ride was not worth the price of admission.
