y'all know those types of shows like "Strictly Come Dancing" and "Dancing with the Stars"? there was also a singing version of it called "Just the Two of Us" that aired in the UK a long, long time ago.
well, these types of shows are still very popular in Croatia (and this part of Europe apparently) and our versions still airs 15 years later. we have "Ples sa zvijezdama" (dancing with the stars, literally) and "Zvijezde pjevaju" (literal translation is 'the stars are singing').
yesterday, an openly gay man won the 11th season of Zvijezde pjevaju and I just think that's neat-o! he won by both the audience and jury votes. what's even better is that his professional partner is an IRL friend of his so they share their victory with somebody they love.
So many people in my real life keep being like "omg I watched dts and I totally understand your obsession with f1!!" NO YOU DON'T 😭😭😭
I try not to be a snob in this way but it's like, I know these people have no intention to actually watch races so it's so *eye twitching* when I get told this. And it's like, yeah I myself got into f1 thru dts technically, but I watched a couple eps, then an actual race, and found the actual races way more interesting, and the rest is history. And I hate how it's like "I got so invested!!" ...yeah with the storyline Netflix is telling. Maybe I'm just an annoying purist, but 😭 I can't keep doing this bcs im not built for responding in a good way djkfkg. I guess for me, I don't understand how dts can be that enjoyable. I didn't really like it too much before I knew much about F1, and I don't like it now bcs I know TOO much about all the actual going-ons. I mean, like there's a reason why I force myself to watch full old races 😭
Okay sorry this is quite bratty of me 😭 I'm just a control freak who's like "stop getting into my hobby not in the way I want you to get into my hobby!!!!!" It's the same energy as people telling me they know wags before they know drivers names. I do not care unless you're interested in watching actual races 😭😭
yknow that time Jay became a rock star?? Yeah so anyways I want an AU where after the merge Jay decided he wanted to become a npop idol (ninjagan pop idol) and somehow roped Cole into it.
They are now famous anonymous pop singers. I leave the ensuing shenanigans to you.
how is it 2023 and people are still going "how does everyone know the choreography" at a musical episode that gives an in-universe explanation for all of this?
I just feel like… I spend way way way too much of my free time… trying to plot out how I would reorganize the plot of Fallen Order to have Cal and Merrin get together in the first game, without resorting to overused tropes or losing sight of the main story.
Accepting the fact that I couldn’t outdo the way their romance was portrayed in Survivor… and also that shoving them together in the first game turns the story into a little bit of a Disney movie…
Oh, and while we’re at it, let’s turn it into a musical.
Seriously.
I think it could work.
Im just saying, if I weren’t such a lousy songwriter, I would be unstoppable!
……
Guys I think I have way too much free time on my hands, please send help 👁️👄👁️
i feel a little melancholy because everything in the past 3 days since my birthday have been, like....... completely perfect. like. i wish the whole entire rest of my life could be like it is right now. where the only other people in the house are my mama and little sister, and none of us have any work or school, and were all spending all day long lazy and quiet and in our pajamas, and ordering takeout for dinner each night, everything just feeling slow and peaceful and GOOD. and theres leftover cake in the fridge and every time i look out the window its dark and snowing. and it makes me sad because this is how id like to spend the rest of my life if i got to choose. i wish things could be like they are right now, forever. but tomorrow everythings gonna go back to normal again. and that makes me feel a little sad, because i really love how things have been in the past 3 days
What do the assholes that run the streaming companies think their gods? I've seen this happen on Disney plus, Paramount plus, Netflix and I wouldn't be surprised if the rest follow suit. That's just deciding for no good reason to pull off series after series that are popular, that are well liked and are doing good in any kind of rating system that exists. They just killed them for no good fucking reason. I'm fucking tired of the shit with them and they think that were just gonna keep letting them do this bullshit again and again. Drop crap in the place of really good shows. Because that's what they did at least I've noticed on Paramount plus.
It's not because of the strikes so don't anybody even try to go there. They dropped off show like Star Trek Prodigy that has nothing to do with the strikes it's an animated series and a yank the whole first season and had it thrown off the platform and it's now looking for a new home. It's a Star Trek series everything Star Trek is on fucking Paramount plus so where the fuck is it supposed to go?!? Maybe I'll just go to fuck back the cable because streaming services seem to be worse than cable ever was! It's like we opened a Pandora with box of bullshit except now we're paying for each one of the goddamn channels now. If you're too young to understand this once upon a time there was a thing called cable and we'd have something like 60, 70, 80 a 100 plus channels. Each one of those channels would be like the Disney Channel, the Discovery Channel, the Netflix Channel and so on, but you wouldn't have to pay a premium price for each one of the fucking channels only like HBO. You'd pay one monthly fee and you get all the fucking channels. But now in 2023 we have streaming services, where one is like 6.99, here 14.99, there 9.99 there 12.99, there what have you. So we're now paying more than we ever would have paid for cable. We're still having to deal with commercials which use be one of reasons to get streaming services but not anymore!! We're pretty much getting fucked and not in anyway that's good and fun!!! Actually I want cable from like the 80s but with 200 channels, MTV that plays music videos, a world that never figured out or created reality tv, cartoons on Saturday mornings on all channels even ESPN mf!!! I want them to sit the fuck down and try just try to come up with shows like Designing Women, Golden Girls, Good Times, The Jeffersons, Mork and Mindy, original ideas people! Not the same old seen before or doing reboot of something again. Get rid of all the news channels while we're at it, unless their independent companies of the free press that their only job is to report the news and they're not under any obligation by any company to promote a certain viewpoint or political ideology we don't need them anymore. There now more dangerous then helpful.
Honestly think we could go harder with the horrifying symbolic depictions of Tatsumi angst and the perceived inner wrongness that’s constantly being repressed, but that’s just my two cents.
