I feel like Macavity's crimes are also fun to transpose into the Purge universe. Importing produce without declaring it to Customs! Donation to political campaigns beyond SEC limits! Sending unsolicited commercial email and not including a physical mailing address and a clear unsubscribe link!

I don't think anyone ended up starting a Club, but user DirtyOldTown has been making FanFare posts for several Indian movies recently and tagging them indiancinema and/or bollywood, and got some interesting answers from this "Around the World via Streaming" Ask question.

I made a FanFare post about the full season but people who want to do an episode-by-episode series of recap posts should feel free!

There is an episode that is a musical -- that is, has songs in it.

A friend who loves "Lexx" cajoled me into watching that episode.

I will not be participating in this FanFare watch-through, but I wish you all good spirits and the best of fun.

Soraya Roberts writes about Nanette in The Baffler -- I'm pondering this, not sure whether I agree.

Positioning herself as a post-comedy revolutionary crashing a male-dominated industry, Gadsby elides the long, complicated history of standup comedy.... Nanette does not defy, it inherits. It is a Trojan horse, a gesture towards challenge, which never actually delivers.

Whoops, meant to post that in the main FanFare thread.

I forgot to check FanFare Talk before posting and I put up a post for Episode 5 just because that happened to be the episode I'd seen before thinking "I should put up a FanFare post about this".

I would totally be interested in a post covering the whole season. fiercekitten I am totally happy to defer to you to do the honors. I've now seen the final episode so I'd definitely be interested in sharing thoughts about it with others.
