Watching #HappyEndings on #HULU. Moments of wit and cuteness, but mostly stereotypical characters—almost caricatures. The domineering female, the dumb blonde female, the token Black guy, the comedic gay guy, the optimistic loser and Dave, the mediocre entrepreneur. NOT Friends.
The BBC series #TheSplit is excellence in storytelling, character development, showcasing women’s points of view, as well as family dynamics. Adult themes with mature use of language. But: these adults are not putting the needs of their children first. Harsh reality of it.
#TheGilmoreGirls series and I go back to its launching, when I watched each episode with my daughter. I just gotta say- Rory should have stayed with and chosen Logan as her partner. The only man in the bunch, and the only adult who could lead and be socially adept.
Again, to be clear. Oklahoma is not a Southern state. It was not part of the civil war, and was comprised of two territories until it became a state in 1907. NE Oklahoma is very much lower Midwest in culture. Western Oklahoma blends the Great Plains and SW US culture. #Oklahoma
A glimpse in to Southern culture through extraordinary and descriptive short stories: Ford County Stories by John Grisham. I highly recommend! #JohnGrisham
I was just thinking about gender neutral bathrooms, with all the wild hoopla in the media. I have four gender neutral bathrooms in my house, built for a Dad and Mom, son and daughter, and guests. #genderneutralbathrooms
Finally figured out why younger generations say ‘on accident’ instead of ‘by accident’. Just heard a line from #LifeinPieces on #Hulu where they juxtaposed ‘on accident’ and ‘on purpose’. Btw it’s ’by accident’ .
Some day soon, there will no longer be any ‘middle’ children. No middle child angst. Just oldest and youngest, or only child, for families with children. The oldest will still be called bossy of course, and the youngest will still be spoiled of course…#birthorder
Anyone else noticing that generational social media posts now point to Gen X as the oldest ones? Boomers are rarely mentioned now. I feel unseen! #Boomers#GenX
When you’re perusing costume designs for movies from the 40s and 50s, and realize your wedding dress ( loaned to me by my mother-in-law in 1978) looks like Elizabeth Taylor’s wedding dress in #FatheroftheBride, designed by #HelenRose!
Ok, it’s official. Any series that features THE #JoeWalsh is the GOAT. Loving #BetterThings on #HULU! So real, poignant, and demonstrates the strength of women in the sandwich generation. Excellent writing and acting!
My 4-year-old granddaughter’s favorite song Golden just won an Oscar for best song, and her favorite movie KPop Demon Hunters won an Oscar for best animated film! She called it! #Golden#KPopDemonHunters
