    - He looked better than the past couple. -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 06:55 2
      - Yeah. He's getting faster. From my very limited experience I will say that the sunrise does wonders for your energy level. -- nm* - Dano Oct 19, 06:56 1
        
        That video of Harvey just chilling when he finished. Just incredible. -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 06:58

Being the Ricardos trailer (in horrible Twitter aspect ratio) -- (link) - LMS Oct 19, 06:38 8
- Definitely giving it a watch and I hope Kidman and Bardem do a great job. -- nm - Krusty Oct 19, 06:44 1
  - I'm still laughing about the posts from months ago about Kidman's 'stunning transformation' into Lucille Ball and it was just...Nicole Kidman. - ty97 Oct 19, 06:49
- This isn't a great trailer, and why is it all exposition.... - ty97 Oct 19, 06:42 5
  - It's a fantastic trailer and tells you what you need to know. - spamlet Oct 19, 06:45 3
    - It tells you things, this is true! - ty97 Oct 19, 06:47 2
      - Kid, your face looks meh. -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 06:48 1
        
        also true! -- nm - ty97 Oct 19, 06:49
  - heh. That made me think the West Wing should be on the list of shows below but I guess since it premiered in '99 it isn't "21st century"? -- nm - oblique Oct 19, 06:43
Got a problem with zebras? Throw more zebras at it! -- (link) - Reagen Oct 19, 06:37 3
- not needle snakes? -- nm - Beaker Oct 19, 06:40
- "Zebras are bastards." -- CGP Grey -- nm - Full Size Candy Baron Oct 19, 06:38

- THIS IS FINE -- nm - ty97 Oct 19, 06:30
And Chris keeps going... stumbles out to start Lap 74. I'm totally team Chris now. -- nm - Dano Oct 19, 06:01 6
- Team Mori! I thought Chris was done when he limped in with a minute left on 68. -- nm - mafic Oct 19, 06:50
- Harvey is the only one who looks like he still has a lot left in him. -- nm - Dano Oct 19, 06:02 4
  - Hrvey just ran by on the trail camera and he looks like it's his first loop. -- nm - Dano Oct 19, 06:12
  - That's because he's been secretly swapping places with his twin! -- nm - Full Size Candy Baron Oct 19, 06:07
  - And I did look back. The person who only did 2 loops wasn't an injury. She took a wrong turn on the trail and didn't make it back in time for lap 3. -- nm - Dano Oct 19, 06:06 1
    - Oh that stinks. -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 06:09
Whoa. Fighting words. -- (link) - Mop Oct 19, 05:23 1
- If I saw the trailer unlabeled, I would guess DCEU rather than MCU. Justice League Junior Varsity. -- nm - Max Oct 19, 05:31

  - Does anyone actually care what that guy "thinks"? -- nm - ore-o Oct 25, 16:00
- According to the Wall St. Journal the FDA should approve both the Moderna booster and mixing of boosters this week. Might want to wait if you're - Krusty Oct 19, 05:29
- From what I’ve seen it’s only J&J but I’m not sure the Moderna booster has even been approved yet. - spamlet Oct 19, 05:23 6
  - Approved last week. -- nm - Spawn Oct 19, 05:43 5
    - Moderna hasn't been approved yet, just Pfizer so far. A panel approved it but the FDA hasn't yet. -- nm - Krusty Oct 19, 05:48 4
      - and this is the problem. should I just do it now? -- nm - amanda jeans Oct 19, 05:57 3
        
        Since you want to mix I would wait out the week and see if they approve it. It's expected to be approved this week. - Krusty Oct 19, 06:11 2
        
        I work in non profit finance. I barely leave the office. but thanks. -- nm - amanda jeans Oct 19, 06:14 1

Chris Roberts does not look good. -- nm - Dano Oct 19, 04:56 6
- He just finished the latest. Still not looking good but getting faster -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 05:55 1
  - All 3 back out for 74. Chris made it to the start line with about 10 seconds to spare -- nm* - spamlet Oct 19, 06:01
- Not at all. But he finished this yard! - spamlet Oct 19, 04:56 3
  - LOL, comments saying he looked better than last time. -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 04:57 2
    - He went back out! -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 05:01 1
      - I was not expecting that. The way he looked and having hit 72 hours/300 miles I thought he would call it a three days. -- nm - Dano Oct 19, 05:02

    - I was just coming to post about the six minute miles. -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 04:49 2
      - It's insane that they can, but the strategy is to run the night road loops fast so you can get a solid 10-15 minute nap. -- nm - Dano Oct 19, 04:53 1

  - I was surprised how much I had watched/am watching. -- nm - spamlet Oct 19, 06:46
  - What do you watch?!? Why do you hate TV? ;-) -- nm* - Krusty Oct 19, 06:19 1
    - Apparently a lot of bad TV :) -- nm - oblique Oct 19, 06:40

  - The lack of Ms. Maisel on this list is a travesty -- nm - oblique Oct 19, 06:41
- With The Wire #1 I was thinking this would be a solid list but that ended quickly when I see a show called "I May Destroy You" is 6th. - Krusty Oct 19, 05:40 3
  - 30 Rock should be near the top of this list, imo. Band of Brothers is too low and no Bob's Burgers. I'm done with this list! *closes tab angrily* -- nm - Krusty Oct 19, 05:45 2
