About to start MY LADY JANE, and I haven't been this excited to watch a show with a wild premise like this (complimentary) in a very long time.

A writer/producer who was present at the creation of Lost writes for Vanity Fair about why the drama hit so big when it debuted 20 years ago—and why we probably can’t go back. Thank you

Aegon is a shortsighted idiot and probably wanted to show off for his friends by kicking his brother when he was "down," but why would you taunt your weirdo younger brother when he's already a kinslayer and commands the biggest dragon in the world?! www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/aem...

The book is THE STARS TOO FONDLY, and it's a sapphic sci-fi romance set on a spaceship after a ragtag group of friends accidentally steal said spaceship while trying to untangle the 20-year-old mystery behind its missing crew bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

Reading a book where several characters watch WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING. The protagonist, who isn't a rom-com fan, notes, "The only redeeming factor so far was the sight of a young Sandra Bullock in an oversized sweater." Haven't seen it, but I looked up the sweater. Totally redeeming

(Yes, even the "Jack gets a tattoo" episode because, at the least, it helped bolster Lindelof and Cuse's argument that LOST should end.)

LOST is by no means a perfect show—see Mo Ryan's vital reporting on its toxic culture—but it's deeply influential (and it was the show that made me want to write about TV). Even the "pointless" episodes offered *something* to examine on a rewatch. www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/20...

I've not read the graphic novel version of THE HEDGE KNIGHT (published in 2013), but it would be hilarious if GRRM, running out of name ideas, took a celebrity portmanteau and ran with it. He's gotten several names from his love of football/the New York Giants, so it's not out of the question!

We might not hate Criston so much if Fabien Frankel wasn’t so good at playing him. And who definitely didn't deserve the amount of harassment being sent his way from people who conflated actor and performance www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/hou...

If I had a nickel for every time I watched Charlie Barnett play a character who muses on theories amid a greater mystery in a Leslye Headland TV show, I'd have two nickels—which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice
