- Dangerous Men (2005) This movie was a clear attempt at a manufactured cult hit In the wake of the success of The Room. John Rad (whoever that is) had footage from a shitty film he tried to make in the 80s. it was quite bad and Rad presumably ran out of money and gave up. 1/x
- The GOP is an insane party with unpopular ideas. You need to be or act like an insane person with unpopular ideas in order to win R primaries. Many of these candidates lose swing states. This is the reason Dems are even close in and sometimes hold the Senate despite the structural disadvantages.

- Unoriginal concept is not in and of itself a problem. There are tons of medical dramas and The Pitts brings a fresh spin in it with great characters. But! It’s a love letter to medical staff. Doing anything like that for police will be, well...inapt?
- Dozens of replies and QTs and I don’t see a single person pointing out that none of these people are “JK Rowling’s team.”
