The Children of Palomar by Gilbert Hernandez - Very strange, and guaranteed to rattle around in your brain for some time
Jewish Images in The Comics: A Visual History by Fredrik Strömberg
The Silence of Malka by Rubén Pellejero and Jorge Zentner - absolutely drop dead gorgeous paintings and warm, naturalistic characterization. Be prepared for a dramatic change in tone, though.
🏳️‍🌈 Spinning by Tillie Walden

Tumblr media
🏳️‍🌈 Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe
Everything is Flammable by Gabrielle Bell - An engaging glimpse into the artist’s life, and the lives of those around her, with simple but expressive drawings
Your Black Friend by Ben Passmore - A wacky style paired with concise writing. A very quick read.
🏳️‍🌈 This Woman’s Work by Julie Delporte - I love, love, love, LOVE the loose, explorative artwork in this book. I wish I could eat this book like a cake. And it features Tove Jansson! 
🏳️‍🌈 Lost Soul, Be at Peace by Maggie Thrash - The sincere writing made me unexpectedly cry. A+

Sabrina The Teenage Witch by Kelly Thompson and artists Veronica and Andy Fish - For some reason I’m obsessed with this cleanly drawn and fluffily written book. Its been a bit since I enjoyed a non-indie title this much. Fun and colorful in exactly the way the Netflix show failed to be.
🏳️‍🌈 The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman and artist Chris Riddell

'I Feel Bad' is an Artist's Catharsis
‘I Feel Bad’ is an Artist’s Catharsis
Orli Auslander didn’t intend to write a book. After realizing she felt guilty, or “bad” as she puts it, Auslander began to document all the times she felt this way with drawings. She quickly realized that she “felt bad” almost all the time. I Feel Bad: All Day. Every Day. About Everything. is a collection of poignant looks at thoughts that race through the minds of women all day long.
I Feel Bad:…

I spent today watch new shows!  Well, some of the new shows for NBC, ABC, CBS and two season premieres for Netflix shows I don’t watch.
I went to the Paley Center with lots of other TV fans and we all watched some (not all) of the fall pilots.
NBC had a comedy called I Feel Bad, based on the book “I Feel Bad: All Day. Every Day. About Everything" by Orli Auslander.  The TV show is about Emet, a working mom (video game artist), balancing life with her husband and three kids, her parents, her career and the desire to be perfect.  It had some laughs.  Saraya Blue plays Emet and I spent a good deal of time trying to remember where I knew her from - she’s the recurring doctor on NCIS: Los Angeles (Deeks shot, Renko shot, Granger poisoned).  Paul Adelstein (Prison Break, Scandal, Brooklyn Nine-Nine) is her husband, there are a bunch of straight from central casting video game nerds where she works.  The actor who plays Raj’s dad on Big Bang Theory is her dad.  I did not recognize the actress who plays her mom (Madhur Jaffrey).  I’m not a big sitcom fan but this feels very much like an NBC comedy and it should - Amy Poehler is one of the producers.  I think they are going to preview it next week (maybe after the America’s Got Talent finale).  
Manifest is NBC’s big Lost wannabe pilot.  People were laughing at it.  I laughed at it.  It wasn’t supposed to be funny.  NBC released the first ten minutes which aren’t really the first ten minutes - more like the first nine with minute 15 tacked on at the end.  It was part mystery, part family drama, part procedural (one character is a cop) and none of it really worked for me.  Melissa Roxburgh (Valor) is the female lead and I didn’t find her really believable. And to the folks making TV shows - Queens is a part of New York City - Manhattan, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Staten Island and Queens.  It is not “suburban Queens” and no New York City local news program would call it that.
New Amsterdam is NBC’s hospital show with The Blacklist’s Ryan Eggold is Dr. Max Goodwin, the new medical director of New Amsterdam, the country’s first and most famous public hospital.  New Amsterdam is actually Bellevue and they shot it there.  I recognize the place (I see it all the time).  The pilot is Dr. Goodwin’s first day at the hospital and it the the typical day in a hospital story you’d see on ER or any other medical show - a failed vent has a group of patients in with carbon monoxide posioning, a troubled teenage girl is back in the psych ward, a young man from Liberia may have ebola, a pregnant woman may lose her a child, a misdiagosed patient has a bad reaction to her meds, etc.  There is a bit of a surprising twist at the end.  It’s fine if you like hospital shows.  The acting is good with a surprisingly strong dramatic performance by Tyler Labine.  Freema Agyeman also appears as the hospital’s most famous doctor who spends more time on talk shows than in the facility.
ABC’s new comedy The Kids Are Alright is about the Cleary family - Mom, Dad and eight boys ranging in ages from a year old to 20 - in the early 1970′s California.  The focus is on the troubled times in the early 1970′s and difficulties for the family.  The narrator is the middle child Timmy who is looking to make himself stand out from his multiple siblings.  The one having the most fun is West Wing/In Plain Sight star Mary McCormick who is mom Peggy Cleary.  Not something I’d watch - I can say that about all the comedies - but it was fun.
The Rookie brings Nathan Fillion back to ABC.  Fillion plays a 40-something who has a life changing event and decides to follow his dream by becoming a member of the LAPD.  The pilot follows the first two days that Fillion and his fellow rookies work with their training officers.  Less jokey than Castle but this is basically Castle with a uniform in Los Angeles.  
A Million Little Things is sort of “The Big Chill” in 2018 Boston meets This is Us.  The sudden death of a a friend brings a group of people together for his funeral. Everyone’s lives seem to be going one way but really have other stories to tell.  There is a big cast Ron Livingston, James Roday (Psych), Grace Park (Hawaii Five-0), David Giuntoli (Grimm), Romany Malco (Weeds), Christina Marie Moses (The Originals) and they’re all good.  There seems to be an underlying mystery to the friend’s death. I’m sure that will be a long running mystery (if it is a long running show).
CBS had two comedies - The Neighborhood and Happy Together.  Both are easy to explain - “hilarity ensues!”.  In The Neighborhood, the Johnsons, a white family (Max Greenfield and Beth Behrs), move into an African-American neighborhood and hilarity ensues!  Cedric the Entertainer and Tichina Arnold (Martin) are the neighbors with two grown sons.  Cedric doesn’t like the new neighbors (and hilarity ensues!).  There are a few laughs.  Happy Together has Damon Wayans Jr. and Amber Stevens West (Criminal Minds/The Carmichael Show) as a happily married couple.  He’s an accountant for famous people, she’s an interior designer for restaurants.  One day, a pop-star client (played by a charming Felix Mallard), decides to crash with them after a nasty break-up. This is supposedly based on the life of executive producer Ben Winston, who is also the executive producer of The Late Late Show with James Corden.  Winston had Harry Styles live with him for a while.  It was cute, funny in a few places.  
Magnum P.I. is really Hawaii Five-1.  It is the same producers and the same jokey, action/adventure-y feel.  Some of the similar beats from the original series - Magnum is Naval Intelligence turned private eye.  Rick and TC are exactly the same from the original series though Rick seems a little more mobbed up here.  Robin Masters is no longer just a novelist, he is a novelist after being a journalist embedded with Magnum, Rick and TC in the war.  Higgins is a woman.  Hawaii looks beautiful.  The estate on the old show was actually just a nice sized house with a great ocean view.  This is an estate.  It is magnificent.   I don’t think it is going to hit some of the serious themes the original show did but it is perfectly entertaining if you like your cop/private eye shows jokey, action/adventure-y.  
The two Netflix shows were the season two premiere of Atypical and the season five premiere of BoJack Horseman.  I tried both shows but they weren’t for me when they came out but their premieres seemed solid.
So that’s how I spent my day.

One woman’s hilarious unfiltered take on the side effects of trying to have it all.
Note: inspired by Orli Auslander’s book of the same name
Cast (thus far)
Sarayu Blue (No Tomorrow) as Emet, a modern working mother who is in a constant battle between being a mom and still having some personal fulfillment. She works as a storyboard artist at a video game startup with a group of young guys, whom she often uses as sounding boards for her own personal issues. (Feb 26)
Paul Adelstein (Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce) as Emet’s husband David, who was raised as man’s man but is trying hard to be a modern and sensitive husband and father. He works at the customer complaints department of a major airline. He loves problems with concrete, simple solutions. (Feb 26)
Aisling Bea (The Fall) as Simone, Emet’s childhood friend. She is the encourager of all bad ideas and the female version of “The Most Interesting Man in the World.” (Mar 20)
Zach Cherry (Spider-Man Homecoming) as Norman, a lovable man-child and perhaps the most well adjusted of the guys who work in Emet’s office. (Mar 8)
James Buckley (The Inbetweeners) as Chewy, who works with Emet at Gameblast. Chewy isn’t the most articulate and refined, but he has played and beat just about every video game known to man. (Mar 9)
Johnny Pemberton (Son of Zorn) as Griff, who is very sweet but nervous. Extremely intelligent in facets except socially, which often means he is very blunt but totally unaware of his own bluntness. (Mar 15)

Produced by: Amy Poehler, Dave Becky, Aseem Batra & Julie Anne Robinson.

Paleyfest 2018: Multicultural Families in “I Feel Bad”
I Feel Bad had a special premiere last week on NBC, but the series officially starts on October 4th. The series is based on a book called I Feel Bad: All Day. Every Day. About Everything by Orli Auslander, and it tackles the many internal struggles that adults (but women especially) go through on a daily basis. We had the opportunity to chat with some of the cast and crew behind the comedy at…

How we’ve quite gotten to April I have no idea. This month has been super busy for me, I feel like I haven’t stopped. While this might not be my most detailed monthly post, it certainly is packed!
  Outfits
I’ve really gotten into putting outfits together this month, as well as finding some absolute steals on Ebay. It also helps with the slightly warmer weather and not having to hide under as thick a jumper I can find! L-R Jack Wills dress & Next boots, Next Dungarees, River Island Jumper & Doc Marten boots, Meela Loves London Dress and finally Lipsy jacket, Next boots & New Look Boots. For more OOTD, make sure to follow me on Instagram.
  Treats 
I have had a few lovely treats this month. A few trips to London have also meant trips to Lola’s at Waterloo, I made some homemade cookies for Red Nose Day at work & I made that post about pizza, read it here.
  Events 
I’ve been lucky enough to have some great evenings out this month firstly to see Russell Howard in a hilarious and thought-provoking show. Next up was a great evening out with Abbie with a lot of cocktails and finally a night with my Mum and Sister to see Olly Murs to end the month.
  Sunshine and new specs! 
  Books 
I’ve been in quite a reading slump this month and really struggling. I did manage to read a few though focusing on strong women including the compilation, Nasty Women, Orli Auslander’s ‘I Feel Bad’ and prosecutor Marcia Clarke’s Memoir ‘Without a Doubt’.
  My Little Ray of Sunshine 
As always Hamski is a favourite.
A little late but here's my March favourites! #blogger #favourite How we've quite gotten to April I have no idea. This month has been super busy for me, I feel like I haven't stopped.
