okay so like. i've talked about this before but as someone who is a recovering alcoholic it's so interesting to me to see how the media portrays alcoholics. when we think about sunny they show the not great sides of alcoholism. there's a whole episode where they literally go through withdraws. with sunny, it's clear to the viewers that the main characters are problematic and damaged individuals and that their coping mechanisms are not healthy. but in other shows i see people like dodging that. specifically i think about ted lasso and ted's heavy drinking and relying on drinking to cope with his stress and sadness. there's a little bit of "oh this is not great" in the one scene where he snaps at nate while he's drunk but otherwise? they just avoid the topic in general. and same in mythic quest with david's drinking. like he says in an episode that he needed a whole bottle of wine and some xanax to sleep. but they just move on from it completely.
i don't know where i was going with this but it's just something i think about from time to time.

nobody wants to see sex in tv shows they want to see two people who obviously want to have sex be so goddamn weird about the fact that sex isn’t happening.

This might be too specific to have broad appeal, but I do what I do in the name of science, not wealth or fame.

Sitcom episodes might take YOU 20 minutes to watch, but they take ME 40 minutes because I need to pause them every time there's a second hand embarrassment moment (and then the scene gets to live rent free in my head for the rest of my life)
