Speaking of people thinking of the "sure thing":

Remember the lady that quit on air to open a cannabis club?

Charlo Greene - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

How it started:

How is it going:

In November 2014, the Alaska Public Offices Commission served Greene with a subpoena, alleging that she had violated campaign finance disclosure laws regarding Alaska Measure 2 (2014), a measure that would legalize recreational marijuana use in Alaska. Greene objected to the subpoena, saying that the funds raised in her Indiegogo campaign were to be used toward worldwide marijuana advocacy and were not specifically earmarked for Ballot Measure 2.[15] The commission rejected the subpoena, noting that while Greene's organization did not appear to violate campaign disclosure laws, she must still comply with the ongoing investigation.[16]

In January 2015, Greene and the Alaska Cannabis Club were evicted from a building they had been renting, a former Kodiak Bar and Grill location in Anchorage, for failing to obtain insurance in a timely manner.[17]

Greene's cannabis club was raided in June 2016 by local police.[18] She was subsequently arrested and charged with several counts of misconduct involving a controlled substance.[4][19] In 2018 she pled guilty to one count, a felony, and was sentenced with a $10,000 fine but no jail time.[20]

Hollywood movie finally being made about Robert Smalls - Explore Beaufort SC

'Steal Away' is bound to be a very good movie, because few life stories tell as well as the life story of Robert Smalls.

Smalls also purchased his former owner’s house, and he was generous to the economically devastated family.

He took care of Mrs. McKee until the day she passed away, right there in the house.

Jesus Christ himself wouldn't be that generous.

I will not listen to any article that claims there is anything that was ever on TV that was better than The Wire.

They got the right version of The Office though. And the US version of the office got way better when Michael Scott left.

You've been comeds'ed.

A lot of those shows are listed to play to an audience - I like Succession but 10th is very generous, Mad Men was interesting but holy fuck was it overrated, I really enjoyed The Americans but the way they'd have you believe it those two were responsible for 5% of all deaths in the United States during the Reagan years, Atlanta is nowhere near as clever or enjoyable as its fans think it is, HOW IN THE FUCK IS CHERNOBYL AT 15 AND BAND OF BROTHERS AT 36?!

I really liked The Leftovers but I don't know if I'd say it's a top ten. Really unique though.

Better Call Saul > Breaking Bad.

The Thick of It should be 50 places ahead of Veep.

I disagree but I will say that Arrested Development should be higher than both (it's higher than US Office).

Guess I deserved it for being in a hurry to get to a meeting.

My job is interfering with my life.

I can't watch The Office after Carell left, probably should stop after the Jim-Pam wedding. I loved the original and it was so much better than I expected.

I loved Arrested Development for the Fox network years but the Netflix seasons are rough. I am halfway through the 4th season recut, and it is better but its exhausting. I havent seen the 5th yet. Which is sad because I was such a fan of the first 3 seasons.

Nailed on all points. A lot of the high-ranked shows had cliffs they went off though (Wire season 5, GOT season 6, La Brea...). Didn't harm them but seemed to harm others.

Essentially all those shows.....
