Thank you! I was hoping someone would :)

How many movies I’ve seen them in: about 45-50, I think

How I feel about their acting: Beyond incredible. The way he could be such a goofball but so suave at the same time - amazing. Truly has no equal in any era.

How I feel about them as a person: He was pretty messed up, but he had a traumatic life

My favorite role they played: I’m not sure if this means favorite character or favorite performance. If it’s favorite character, probably Noah Praetorious in People Will Talk. If it’s favorite performance, probably Roger Thornhill in North by Northwest

It’s the beginning of sweet cherry season (at least here in Washington state, but we had a really warm spring).

Washington state has a lot more cherries than we get in California, and probably a longer season. But it’s already been cherry season for at least 3 weeks in California. We were lucky and had TWO weeks of Bing cherries, but the ones I bought Saturday are almost definitely the last ones of the year. Other cherries are good, but Bing cherries are the best. 

Apparently they're doing a mix of "documentary" or vlog style videos and TV episode style, so I'm withholding my verdict until I see a few of each...

Oh that’s useful to know - definitely worth waiting to get a better picture of how this story is going to be told, then.

I'm interested in watching more episodes before I decide how I really feel. But I agree that it's hard to get a sense of the characters or where they might go with the story from the first ep. Seeing Alysson be the opposite of Jane was fun, though.

It is fun seeing Alysson play such a different character! There was never a moment when I looked at her and was confused that Jane was being out of character, because she so clearly wasn’t Jane.

Interesting. I don't care yet, but I'm curious enough--especially since some of the character names suggest Twelfth Night--to watch again. Also, I think we're hearing about the bride and groom but haven't met them, so there's a little mystery...

There are also cutouts of Luke Skywalker and Elijah Wood, a Tardis mug, Baby Groot figure, Donald Duck stuffed animals (in bookcase) and posters of the Breakfast Club, X-Men, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, the Cheetah Girls, and Star Trek.

Maybe One Shot or For Hero?

And the book (same title) is lovely too!

A fifth = a fifth of a gallon (because the U.S. tries to pretend the metric system doesn't exist). Freezies are called Otter Pops in the U.S. (at least where I live). Otter Pops is technically a brand name, but we even call generic versions that.

Ah, thank you, friend!  To be fair the term "twenty-sixer" refers to the number of ounces in the bottle (there being no easy nickname for 750mL).  But maybe are we using Imperial ounces instead of US ounces????  Idk, I have never been completely sure of the difference between these two things.  (In school we were taught "you need to know what these measurements are because Americans are backwards and have not accepted that metric is clearly the superior system for easy comprehension and scientific analysis" but not much more than that, so...)
