I’d just follow some emotionally stunted, overly violent a$$hole around and narrate his life. Gotta be a better living than what I make now.03 Jan 2025 02:07 +0000at://did:plc:olxlfzigb5ecdruluucg2jod/app.bsky.feed.post/3lesizrxdyk2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/thatnerddave.bsky.social/post/3lenna665sk2hDeborah Joy Levine doesn’t get enough credit for developing the 90s Superman show and running it during season 1. When she left, the show declined in quality immediately. She nailed Lois Lane. The Kents? Gold. Daily Planet cast? Near perfect. Despite the cheese and romance focus, it’s Superman.01 Jan 2025 03:39 +0000at://did:plc:olxlfzigb5ecdruluucg2jod/app.bsky.feed.post/3lenna665sk2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/thatnerddave.bsky.social/post/3lembahs6is2hWrote until 2 am last night.
