Brockmire had some success, but I’ve never mentioned it to anyone who’s actually watched it. The comedy is outrageous, and the characters are awful, but you fall in love with them. It’s so good.

The Whitest Kids You Know - Great shortlived sketch comedy show.

As a few other have mentioned Mr Inbetween is the greatest show that America didn’t watch.

Season 1 is IMO one of the best single seasons of televion. Such a wild ride. Wolf’s character arc alone makes it worth watching.

I’ll second Mr. Inbetween.

Banshee, Hell on Wheels, and Preacher all started strong, but lost me over time.

I’m not sure what you mean by “joined” the government. I’m sure many are politically or ideologically aligned a lot of the current adminstration’s actions but aren’t actively participating in any acts of opression. I’m sure there are many people working in government that are “2A people”, and many more who would like to disarm the populate completely.

And you’re flat out wrong about them not being interested in protecting anyone. They are very interested in protecting themselves. That just doesn’t necessarily include the rest of us.

When they thought COVID lockdowns were a threat to their personal freedoms, they picked up their AR-15s and stormed on the statehouse in Michigan. And again… The police were disciplined, restrained, and de-escalatory in the face of an armed protest.

I don’t know why you think the founders couldn’t imagine abusing power in violation of the constitution. The same man who wrote “all men are created equal” said of slavery “we have the wolf by the ear, and we can neither hold him, nor safely let him go. Justice is in one scale, and self-preservation in the other.” They clearly documented their knowledge that their actions were unjust but opted for political expedience.

One of my primary takeaways from the BLM protests was The efficacy of open carry protest at Stone Mountain in Georgia.

In LA protesters are getting the shit beat out of them. In New York protesters get the shit beat out of them. But as soon as there’s 200 protesters with AR-15s suddenly it’s “can’t we all just get along”… Suddenly the cops are cool headed, rational, and preventing escalation at all costs.

It really sucks to say this, but the 2A people spent decades telling us we were throwing away a fundamentally important right that could protect us from tyranny. Lots of people scoffed at them and explained you can’t stand up to the government. Too many of us have forgotten that gun control was started in California under Governor Ronald Reagan to prevent the Black Panthers from armed protest.

The 2A people are still poised to protect themselves and their interests from government abuse, they’re just not going to protect YOU from tyranny. You have to do that bit yourself.

There is so much I like about this. I like that Clark doesn’t just look like Superman with glasses. It feels like they’re addressing the big questions of his “humanity” and focusing on his role as a protector not a fighter. This version of Jonathan Kent looks promising (I really hated the Man of Steel version) and I think without the Kents he doesn’t have the character that Superman requires. That’s what makes him human. It feels like a comic in all the right ways.

James Gunn’s credit is good with me too. Super, Guardians, Suicide Squad, Peace Maker, and Creature Commandos are all great IMO. He writes relationships so well.

“They’re putting litterboxes in the classrooms for the furry kids. My cousin’s rooommates’s mom works at XYZ school and she said they’re really doing that.” I’ve heard it from 3 different people.

At no point during this Rogan Experience fever dream wherein a child in a fursuit poops in a sand box in class did any of these people stop to think that maybe they are just gullible.
