Looks like he moved around some, but that’s probably where it’s coming from, especially if Joe Mande isn’t on staff.

The showrunner Lee Sung Jin moved from Seoul to Minnesota in 6th grade.

Seven fucking quarters and no TJ Shannon. What the fuck, Finch?

The Week That Was - April 13, 2026 Finished up two of the top series on TV and saw a lot of new movies, including Project Hail Mary

Sorry that this is a week late, but I watched a ton of stuff over the past two weeks, including something in theaters now and a bunch of new releases on streaming.

That was the formula for basically every single show on AMC for the 2010s.

250 - You Gotta Have a Hot Pile (SVU S14E3 Twenty-Five Acts) Anna Chlumsky, Roger Bart — Munch My Benson The Munchies chose an SVU in which we're introduced to everyone's fave ADA, Raphael Barba. Rollins, Munch, and Amaro start a book club about the hottest new chic-bondage-lit sensation, Twenty-Five Act...

The Munchies chose to have us meet Barba for the first time, and in Barba's first case on #SVU, he goads the perp into choking him on the stand. It's a hell of an entrance, that'll make you fall in love with Raúl Esparza all over again.

Delightful. We’ve recorded a pair of @unkindrewindpod.bsky.social for our upcoming season with him too!

I’m going to manifest the end of manifestation.

The US reportedly waited to strike the bridge in Iran a second time until rescue workers and others in the area gathered to help the wounded, which then killed at least eight people. Authorities in Iran are describing it as an act of terrorism.

The Week That Was - March 31, 2026 All-time classics of the traditional and cult varieties were rewatched this week alongside more Taylor Sheridan and some big films I'm less enthused by.

Sure, I watched yet another Taylor Sheridan show (which was different from his standard fare), but I also watched some bangers like Night of the Juggler and All the President's Men this week.

What if Carl from Shameless was a homicidal maniac in training? That's the question this episode of #SVU poses, and it's the one the Munchie Boys have to wrestle with here. They are also forced to wonder if waffles are the breakfast of choice for youngsters with an unquenchable bloodlust.

The Week That Was - March 24, 2026 This past week saw sports take up a lot more of my week than they normally do.

Went a little more in depth than I've been going on the stuff I watched last week, including SLOMW, some great foreign stuff that I'd been meaning to watch but hadn't yet, an underseen indie gem, and a truly irritating film from the divisive Gaspar Noé.

So this edit completely misses the guy stepping in front of Ritchson’s bike, causing Ritchson to go over the handle bars, then shoving Ritchson, who only then beat the guy’s ass.

They could rationalize it as a sunk cost to them in the short term with the chance to keep the show alive. Like the sponsors would clearly not want to be associated with her when it airs. This may actually let some people save face.

I wonder if it’s actually the Bachelorette producers getting a good look at the shit sandwich of a season in the can that they’ve got with TFP, scratching their heads knowing it would kill the show, and this is their ripcord to parachute out and just eat shit while hoping the scandal keeps interest?

And there’s controversy leading to money, and controversy leading to tossing an entire season in the can and tens of millions of dollars in an inferno in a dumpster. This was always a possibility.

Producers, however, could and should pay dearly. This was 100% avoidable.

They had three seasons of evidence that this was a terrible idea. Hell, the video is from when the pilot of SLOMW shot. Anyone with eyes knew this was going to be a complete disaster.

I’m glad the crew got paid.

Saw disaster coming from a mile away

I don’t know if #MomTok can survive this.

I’m not sure what her custody is like with the child in the video, but she got a slap on the wrist. And ABC canceled her Bachelorette season but nothing has happened yet with SLOMW, and this incident happened after the pilot was shot, so she had four more seasons at least on that show.

At least the crew already got paid.

And this shit was all pretty much known during season 1 of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives so ABC and The Bachelorette producers all should have known.

They used what has to be the biggest lead-in time slot of the year, the post-Oscars half hour, to launch the show.

And then canceled an entire season that’s in the can four days later.

Still SHOCKING ABC used its biggest lead-in of the year to launch a show they canceled four days later.

I mean this probably saves the show from itself.

Start making more noise about this.

It could soon be illegal to protest in Canada.
