Old Nerd Joel @blindbeholder.bsky.social · 26/07/2026The hate definitely predated the ending, so I'd say more the former than the latter (although both are valid). But it also ended in 2014, in the middle of GamerGate, so it definitely got swept up by all those bad actors. 000

Old Nerd Joel @blindbeholder.bsky.social · 22/05/2026The only cinematic story worth telling from this made-for-TV ass show, which was literally just "Star Wars does Gunsmoke", would have been reuniting Grogu and Dyn on the big screen after a few years apart. Putting that into the Boba Fett show (?!??!) was mindbogglingly shortsighted.static.klipy.comStar Wars Boba Fett AppearanceALT: Star Wars Boba Fett Appearance 021
Old Nerd Joel @blindbeholder.bsky.social · 10/05/2026So odd, since Supernatural season 5 absolutsly felt like a final season (which was the intention at that time). I actually think Stranger Things' problem was it felt TOO much like a "final" season. It was a finale's worth of story stretched over 10 hours. 010

Old Nerd Joel @blindbeholder.bsky.social · 28/10/2025The creators of those shows were often astonished by how much they'd managed to put the audience in their characters' corner. Walter White poisons a child, and people were still ride or die. 000
Old Nerd Joel @blindbeholder.bsky.social · 28/10/2025Nearly all of prestige TV's antiheroes rely on this cognitive bias. Walter White, Tony Soprano, Don Draper, Vic Mackey, FUCKING DEXTER. Those shows are often intensely focused on that character's biased POV, which creates understanding, which breeds empathy...for some genuinely heinous dudes. 120
