Reno 911 and Embellishment and a Half are back! Program: Reno 911’s brand-new season on Quibi.
Look, we’ve all got Quibi jokes, they screwed up in a lot of methods:.
” Quick bite” is not how any self-respecting human would refer to a brief video.
They obstructed the capability to cast to a television, even after everybody was quarantined and required to see things in their home with their liked ones to prevent reality.
They did not use me a program.
However it would be a shame to toss the infant out with the stupid, silly bathwater. Because the brand-new season of Reno 911! does not miss a beat. It is the best reboot of a show I have actually seen. The entire gang’s back! We’ve got all our old friends from Dangle, Junior, and Jones to the later season characters like Kimball and Declan. Yes, the actors are older, but it’s not like Jailed Development, where that’s disconcerting and distracting.
The program is so great. The voice and humor are the exact same as they were in2003 The reboot picks up on the original’s storylines and offers nostalgic information, like Trudy’s executed serial killer other half and Dangle never ever being able to leave his bike ignored. And there’s new stuff too! They manage to incorporate our modern ACAB reality and keep their signature aggressive-incompetance humor throughout.
I have not seen all of the episodes because I’m enjoying it. That’s how great it is. During a pandemic, I’m not binging it.
Book: Solutions and Other Problems by Allie Brosh.
Allie Brosh’s 2009 web comic/blog Hyperbole and a Half spun off into a book, and has now spun off into Brosh’s 2nd book Solutions and Other Problems.
Brosh is an incredible artist and I think her work needs to be in museums. Okay, yes, there is a sort of stick-figure-esque quality to a few of it– but that’s where the beauty lies! She’s so good at communicating feeling with expression and posture, or the method an arm is scribbled, she doesn’t require her subjects to be more than vibrant stick figures. She can draw human feeling onto a circle or a roundish rectangular shape or whatever she desires. She can make non lifelike illustrations come to life.
This book does get into some heavy subjects. I haven’t gotten to that part yet, but I rely on Brosh to take me there. She’s so amusing and empathetic and seems to comprehend the way my particular brain works– I can manage heavy topics if I am protected and periodically sidetracked.
