It was a grounded show like “Recess” or “Fillmore!” devoid of crazy plots, but relatable and earnest. Of course, being relatable and earnest doesn't guarantee a lack of notes, and for [Doug] Langdale, the worst note was being told an episode wasn't funny ‘So you should add something dumb to it — like a monkey’. “I thought it was the dumbest note I'd ever gotten,” the creator said. “And they thought it was the dumbest note they'd ever given, but they still wanted to do it.” But Langdale didn't just add a monkey, he turned that note into a whole joke, taking inspiration from the infamous note given to “The Brady Bunch” that forced them to add a kid to the aging cast. Langdale had worked with Robbie Rist, who played Cousin Oliver in “The Brady Bunch,” and decided to add a layer of meta commentary on the monkey note by hiring Rist to play the monkey. “[He] was just like, 'So do you literally just want me to go ooh, ooh, ahh, ahh?' And I was like, 'Yep.' 'And the whole joke is, because I did this thing when I was a kid?' And I was like, 'Yeah, sorry.'”

Lacey Tanner ✤ The Tradition
Oh, the loneliеst girl in town was bought for plenty a price, eell, they dress her up in golden crowns, his smile hides a lie
The buzz around Finnick Odair’s miraculous Hunger Games victory had barely begun to fade when twelve year old Lacey Tanner of District 8 shocked all of Panem by winning the 68th Games. The life of a victor was never easy, but for a child to grow up in the eyes and arms of the Capitol, right under the thumb of President Snow himself, was even more so. Lacey was fortunate that her fellow young, beloved victors; Cashmere, Gloss, and Finnick, took her under their wing, alongside the older and even more jaded victor, Haymitch Abernathy. For six years Lacey survived the constant scrutiny, keeping her head down and her chin up, forever the obedient Capitol Princess even as rebellion stirs around her. When Katniss Everdeen outmanoeuvres Snow in her own games, Lacey knows that the time for revolution is near — her only comfort is that she will be nineteen on the next reaping day, finally safe from the arena that forever haunts her nightmares. Or so she thought, until the 3rd Quarter Quell is announced.
Lacey knows. She knows that she’s returning to the games. District 8 only has two victors, and Cecelia has people who need her. Children. A family. Whereas Lacey? Her family is going into the arena with her, and there’s no guarantee that any of them will make it out.
She smiles back, but it’s a fact that her fear will eat her alive, well, she got the life that she wanted, but now all she does is cry

IICHLIWP : favourite lyrics
The Tradition - ask for forgiveness, never permission.
Bells in Santa Fe - all of this is temporary.
Easier than Lying - my heart is massive, but it's empty. a permanent part of me, that innocent artery is gasping for some real attention: some undivided hypertension.
Lilith - well, I'm perfection when it comes to first impressions.
Girl is a Gun - I feel lighter in the waistline, with no hands around me.
You asked for this - I'm tattered like these Levi jeans, punch- wasted on redundancy.
Darling - I'll kidnap all the stars, and I will keep them in your eyes.
1121 - I know the parts of myself that I've hated, and I can't tell which ones are mine and which I created.
Honey - all I can taste is the blood in my mouth, and the bitterness in goodbye.
Whispers - this is the glimmer of light that you're keeping alive when you tell yourself, "bet I could fuck him".
I am not a woman, I'm a god - I am now a martyr, I'm a problem
The lighthouse - I'm glad I met the devil, 'cause he showed me I was weak.
Ya' aburnee - wrap me in a wedding ring: you know I swear I'd give you anything.
Nightmare - I've pinched my skin in between my two fingers, and wished I could cut some parts off with some scissors.
People dissappear here - I hurt myself to make sure I exist, I pinch myself to make sure that I'm real.
