We need a word for the phenomenon of only learning of a show's existence when it's canceled and thinking it sounds really good

[The A.V. Club @TheAVClub]

Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson's Cold War-era spy show has been canceled after just a single season.

"man cave" sounds like a 90s leather bar

She's so cute and likable I wish it were a better movie. I'm still going to see it but this does not sound good

[Variety @Variety]

#Supergirl is a “super-horrendous” comic book movie “with the worst script I can remember,” reads Variety’s review from @OwenGleiberman.

James Gunn said he wasn’t going into production on any movie until the script was rock-solid. For that was the overriding problem with the superhero overkill era: the films had lousy scripts, which served as grids for layering visual effects.

Gunn was right to want to take the comic-book genre back to the basics of well-structured screenwriting. So what has he done in his second DC outing? He’s given us a comic-book movie with the worst script I can remember.

I needed to read this today https://t.co/lYYafc0jf0

[Traces of Texas @TracesofTexas]

Traces of Texas reader Robert Ramos kindly shared this photo of a bus that hit the famed Broken Spoke in Austin and told this great story. Says Robert: "Years ago I was dating a woman who worked for KVET in Austin. One night Bob Cole and Sammy Allred hosted a party for KVET employees. The place was filled up and everybody had a great time. We had just left when, somehow, Sammy's tour bus ended up crashing into the Broken Spoke. I can speculate as to how this may have happened but I won't. Earlier that night, in talking to Sammy, he told us that the tour bus had been owned by Ray Price at one time. The bus hit the building with such force that they had to leave it there for a few days so they could rebuild the wall because the bus was actually keeping it from collapsing. I didn't know anything about it until a few days later when a friend sent me this photo. Good times!"

I told y'all it was a good story. Thank you, Robert. I love tidbits like this!

They’ve arrested more people for touching the peeling paint at the Reflecting Pool than they’ve arrested from the Epstein files.

Just finished Hacks. It started strong, improved as it went, stayed great for 5 seasons (in 6 years!) and stuck the landing. What a show.

they should turn this into a movie

@joerussotweets Journalism 101 - if the headline asks a yes or no question, it's a no (otherwise they'd just state it as fact)

I only have one story on there but it's a brand new genre I think I invented - the oral history mystery. Let the bidding war begin! https://t.co/80yTfyA37F

Remembering the brilliant Marjane Satrapi, the extraordinary artist and filmmaker behind Persepolis.

Through this deeply personal and powerful film, she gave audiences a story of identity, freedom, exile and resistance that continues to resonate across the world.
