Wicked: For Good has pretty much the same pros and cons as the first, and a bizarrely cynical ending that undermines its simple moral message of friendship over bigotry. Full review here:

Everyone else seems to have all these fantastic dreams about flying or smooching a sweetie. Meanwhile I'm over here having dreams where I'm like, explaining to some barely interested acquaintance from high school why I like Frosted Mini-Wheats

I like to imagine there’s another ass-only coffin for the mourners who didn’t buy the premium tix
I'm sorry, but this may be the funniest Facebook AI slop I have ever seen. Bury me sideways in my coffin, brother. Let my dog see

Dunno where I wish Colbert will go from here. A Daily Show slot’d have a “moving back into Dad’s basement” feel. He doesn’t seem to like doing his old Report character, but I do hope he finds some similarly unhinged energy for what comes next.
“Dorky lib Dad” vibes were stale from the jump imo

I've been banging this drum for years now, I know, but Zohran's Big Night is a clear illustration of the power of giving people a vision of the future that boldly contradicts the rhetoric of Republican fearmongers. Not just "disagrees on policies," but actively paints a different image of the world.
