Mandy knows best

Movie I know, I'm a little late to the party here, but this movie is alright... It wasn't life changing for me or anything. I'm also not the biggest Queen fan... I like their main stream stuff like Bohemian Rhapsody and Somebody to Love but I don't think I've ever just played even an album of theirs. I know the less popular funny songs too, like Bicycle and Fat Bottomed girls so I'm not totally lame. But this made me understand the pressure that Freddie Mercury was under and that it was mostly self induced. I wasn't really around when Queen was either. I was almost 3 when Freddie died so, not really big in the music scene yet. So I didn't know how "flamboyant" he was but everyone that has seen it says that Ramy Malik was spot on. Also, Ramy has that skinny boy thing going that makes it easy to make it look like he had aids. I read on Wikipedia that Sacha Baron Cohen was first hired to play Freddie, he couldn't have pulled it off the sam...

Netflix TV show Swedish and crazy! This is a story about a high school shooting, and a girl while they try to decide if she is directly involved or indirectly. It is based on a book with the same name. It is about a girl who becomes involved in a whirlwind romance with a boy from her school. I can't blame her for thinking that anyone from school is safe. I remember when I was in high school, I would date anyone. I didn't think about if they drank too much or were violent because I knew all of their friends and even a lot of time their siblings and families. It wasn't until I got out of school that I became hesitant to date guys that I didn't know. In high school, you think that you are safe or worse, invincible. You think you can handle anything that comes at you and that includes other people's problems. There are countless shows on TV that center around a group of friends or family that will literally do anything to "protect" each other. This touche...

KSL podcast Susan and Josh Powell were in love and married, then 1 day (on my 21 birthday) she was never seen again. They lived in West Valley Utah... I lived in West Valley Utah... The lead detective worked at my high school, while I was in High School! When Josh Powell first talked to the cops and they searched his car, he walked over to the mall where my first 2 jobs were to rent a car and drive 800 miles. I can't believe that I didn't follow the case when it happened! Oh also my dad worked at Home Depot then and totally helped Josh that December. Its so gross and crazy. Also the whole Powell family was totally involved, I have no doubt about that. The dad knew, the brothers knew, and the little sister suspected but never wanted to voice anything. Ok that is my opinion anyway. Also I don't think that they helped him plan it, I do think that his brother Michael was the first person he called after it was done and it wasn't long until Dad knew and then slowly peopl...

TV show 2 seasons and produced by Andy Samberg. Chris Delia and Nikki Glaser and a bunch of other comedians and stand-ups are on it too. Its kind of like a couple stand-up comedians came up with this concept and a bunch of their friends said ok we're in, we'll help. The concept was a slow burn show just about friends who can't date anybody else because they are always together, but they can't date each other because they I guess haven't thought about it. One of the jokes is that millennials  don't want enough sex. It only went 2 short seasons probably because it was supposed to be an ensemble show like Friends or Sex and the City, and they didn't really have a story line that they were chasing. It was exactly how I picture living in LA. Everybody is at different levels of success but everyone is tying to make their lives exactly how they want to live them without molding to what other people think they should be. I don't know the stars at all, even...

TV show Peyton List, Riley Smith, and Mekhi Phifer come together as cops in Queens trying to solve a serial killer case. The twist? Riley Smith and Peyton List are 20 years apart! Mekhi Phifer is around in both decades which is a nice way to tie it all together. I know this was also a movie...I haven't seen it but I should watch it because Mekhi's character is played by Captain Holt from Brooklyn 99 so you know it is an incredible movie. This show only went 1 season although I think it had potential to go more. I watched it in 2 days and stayed up until 4 am to watch it! I couldn't stop, I was obsessed! I thought the storyline was so good and the acting was actually pretty good too. None of these people are show carrying characters... Peyton and Riley are both super attractive people and they've been good in everything I've seen them in, but I think they might just be pretty people...  Also in my mind Mekhi is a huge name, but I only know him from 8 Mile and Div...
