    The estate likely had to sign off on this. So blame them too

    Oh yeah they did. Effusively.

    It’s hard to imagine selling my dead husband out like this, but maybe the money helped.

    I appreciate USA Today’s description:

    It's skin-crawling. It's inappropriate. It's disrespectful. As the young people say, it's "giving the ick."

    Remember folks: If you're still paying for Netflix, you're directly paying them for terrible decisions like this!

    The point of both the South Korean drama and the beloved children’s book is that forcing human beings — particularly, in the latter case, children! — into lethal competition over scarce resources is, to be blunt, very bad.

    ...that's the point of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? Did we read the same book?

    I was curious.

    I lasted about two minutes.

    AI Gene Wilder is horrible.

    I watched through part of the finding of the golden tickets and just couldn't take it anymore. Too cringe.

    Eww.
