Salutations everyone,
Some random entertainment thoughts.
I watched Clean Slate, the Amazon Prime vehicle starring Laverne Cox and George Wallace. I really enjoyed it. So many glimpses into Black life. Yes, it contained moments of people not accepting Desiree’s (Laverne Cox’s) chosen identity, it also gave us the problem with allies who want to “ride on your behalf” while not taking the person on behalf of whom they are advocating, which is its own form of erasure. I hope the show gets renewed because it really is a good time.
Paradise, the Hulu show starring Sterling K. Brown, is one to watch as well. Each episode succeeds in upping the stakes, and leaves you coming back for more.
Another show I would like to shout out is Found (starring Veronica from Shameless, and yes, she is fine as fuck, and Zack from. Saved by the Bell) on NBC. It is winding down its second season and I am hopeful for a third. That show is my jam.
Karen, are you still watching Ghosts?
I will be joining you guys for the live show via streaming.
P.S. Thanks for the movie reviews. Rod, you really need to do one where both Karen and Justin join you. That would be a platinum level moment.
I forgot to say, “I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you Rod.”
Rooting for you Rod on your possible projects!
