Rant: Monthly Dee-Lights (3/23)

Debrastated

Aw, looks like the first season of Adult Swim’s delightfully deranged “short-form” sitcom Three Busy Debras was only six episodes long! To ease the pain of parting a little, the finale did feature a scene-stealing cameo by Sunita Mani, and … Continue reading

Darling Of The Deathlings

Flashes Of Finch [Updated!!!]
