So you're a Top. Gotcha.
Was there ever any doubt?
Look, I just couldn’t remember Ciri from Triss.

Okay, gramps. Did you take your meds today?

Fuck you, Pose, for making me cry - and over one of the characters I liked the least!
How dare you, madame. Seriously.

Although not quite as intelligent and witty as Teen Titans Go! or Unikitty, Cartoon Network's The Powerpuff Girls is a solid series.

Alright, I know I'm late to the party on this one, but holy crap, The Expanse is good. It grabbed me right from the pilot, which is really, really rare.
-
@Lisse24 - The books are equally good; there's only one left (the ninth book) and then the series is done, and I have very mixed feelings about that. It will be nice to see the last remaining plot threads pulled together, but it will also be sad to know there's no more Expanse books coming.
The first book (and first season of the show) is based off of online RP.

Stranger Things Season 3 is a revitalization of the franchise, and definitely worth binge-watching.

@Ganymede I enjoyed season 3 almost as much as I did season 1. I didn't care much for season 2 but they more than made up for that with this season.
-
I've heard this a lot, and I just don't agree.
I think Season 2 wasn't as good as the others, yes, but it wasn't terrible. That they had Paul Reiser in it made the entire thing deliciously meta. It certainly didn't turn me off the franchise, even if I will concede it suffered a little from the 'holy fuck this is popular let's make another season without adequate planning' syndrome.
But Season 3 is definitely super awesome, and highly recommended.
-
Well, I never said it was terrible. I said I didn't care much for it. I just didn't find most of it that interesting though I obviously found it interesting enough to finish. When it was finished, however, I was just hoping that season 3 would be better and closer in quality to season 1. I do agree that Paul Reiser was really good in it though.

Good god was S3 fantastic. I blew through all the episodes and got to the last one and was like "waitaminute that's it?!"Bring on S4!

Does a franchise a scant 2 years old need "revitalized"?
Also, is it true that Netflix is thinking about removing all the smoking from season 3?

I don't know, but if they do then you would remove half of the scenes.
Seriously, folks, it's the fucking 80s, so you might as well object to their clothes.

Yes, Netflix has vowed to not depict smoking in its shows geared towards younger audiences.
I don't know, but if they do then you would remove half of the scenes.
This only applies to new projects moving forward. Most smoking occurs just casually in the background, so the impact to the story itself should be negligible.
