It would immediately become necessary as part of the release promotion for any movie to send an actor or two to do an episode. Clips would dominate on TikTok or YouTube. Anyone at Disney who can't see that is incompetent, a coward, or a jackass.

The basic premise of the Muppet Show is already something that every actor, every musician, every host and content creator and public figure, would be beating down their door to take part in. It'd immediately become another SNL, or Late Night. Even in a country w/o many universally watched shows.

We've got a Muslim man running the most multicultural city in the world and making space for all the people in it. That's what cultural victory over fundamentalism looks like, it's a shame that there's a part of the population that couldn't identify a cultural victory if it slapped them in the face.

If a restaurant shows me AI slop of their food, that means they do not take pride in the food they are making. And why would I want to eat there? Its not hard to take a picture of food you make. And heck, a lot of restaurants don't have pictures at all. Showing a fake example is the worst option.

[Benoit Blanc during a Reacher Christmas episode crossover] Listen, son, I myself am of the conviction that violence is the crude weapon of an incurious mind, but I will admit that my gigantic friend here makes the most convincing argument I've yet heard on the virtues of expediency through force.

In a business and a world with way too many terrible people, be an Andy Williams (or a Brodie Lee, or a Danny Havoc, among others). Be someone where everyone who's ever met you will share the most awesome and heartwarming stories about you when you leave this mortal coil.
