Don't be (too) ashamed. What's the slop you're getting into this week? Games, movies, tv shows, etc.

I'll go first I suppose. I'm watching Burn Notice. I'm on season 3 episode 3. Some of the dialogue is so painful I'm embarrassed to watch it but then I power thru it and finally get to a high quality action scene. Former spy works w former girlfriend, his mom, and a fair weather friend to solve some problems in sunny Florida. It's completely believable and socially redeeming.

So let's hear it.

Just watched some clips and they try to shove the whole "trump/chuds loves russia" which is weird cuz i thought in the early season the culture in the boys is permanently stuck on 9/11 bush paranoia

That's mostly because the comics were written in the Bush era, as things have gone on and they've diverged more they've incorporated modern politics instead.

They had a point where they tortured a billionaire by giving his mo eyes to Elizabeth Warren
