not sure how the whole story would be treated by an international authority..esp in terms of their prejudices and fixed perception of the capabilities of people here..plus how honest would they be regarding where the blame laid given their interest in the geo political situation here

speaking of international relations..since the past 3-4 days, there has been a barrage of articles on the situation here wrt India-china-pakistan and US's take on it..

started with this

http://www.hindustantimes.com/india/china-coordinating-with-pakistan-to-block-india-s-entry-into-nsg/story-wrwpjWezo4ciijvdjx2iRO.html

then came these news

US's sort of duplicitous stand

sorry for so many links but the kind of covergae india -china issue is getting right now is huge

china has been kind of openly opposing india, like how they opposed the banning of JEM cheif Masood. our response to that has been severely lacking

NE india is turning out to be as big as problem boundry area as J& K, more so coz of China's strength and the infiltartion of leftist ideology in that area..many of the naxalalites getting help from China

Show line-up was announced by networks & I don't see Jessica's show mentioned in there. So, she might continue with Suits. Lucifer is renewed for s2, so maybe Shiela Sazs might not be available for Suits. 12 Monkeys is renewed for s2, so Katrina B. won't have a prominent role. I believe Billions, which has Daniel H. as a regular is also renewed for s2.

Politics wise, Trump was in the news again for not releasing his tax returns. He just knows how to stay in news. Here are some segments -

CNN - https://youtu.be/CABkXOgkKgs

Stephen Colbert - https://youtu.be/6VG1fmNprGg &https://youtu.be/npiaKngB8K0

Trevor Noah - https://youtu.be/jcP-rG0M-cQ

Have been watching Dahleez but not taking to it yet. So, I tried to watch some old episodes but still not liking it. Read somewhere that it is ending soon now. A scheming MIL is almost like HA's previous show, B, where his mom used to untiringly plot against her son-DIL break-up. How abt the one u started to watch? Any good?

hmm..the show is winding up

krishnadasi was going good till now..but i think they are sticking to the book and the tamil version where there is forced hate marriage (due to MU despite the leads being in love)..will see how they treat it, but i dont have too much hopes..so another one down the drain..the acting continues to be top notcxh though

Edit - Spoiler Alert for Suits - https://www.instagram.com/p/BFU1ZDTBGfw/

MIKE..dressed casually or just prep shot?

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/wire-actor-wendell-pierce-arrested-894313

he claimed he was implacted by somone one..didnt know celebs get arrested easily there?

Did not know this was also part of Cannes - http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/review/psycho-raman-raman-raghav-20-894381

did u watch the trailer..its seesm like a really dark film but the acting esp NAwazuddin in the last scene with split second change in expression seems to have done an amazing job

JO on DT - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0r9GVHdk3M and the Queen - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVXjFwU11JE

Edit again - should I be hopeful? Seems like Scottie from Suits is in Timeless, a new show, so she won't be available much for Suits - https://youtu.be/4glJzvUunOE

If u recognize another lady from HoC, that is Sakina Jaffrey, daughter of Madhur & S. Jaffrey.

i hope scottie is busy..i want to see development in Donaa and HArvey relation whchever way they decide to take it..but their situation needs to be addressed properly and given as much or more screen time than rachel's drama ( who am i kidding..with the pregnancy story line..fat chance of that happening)

which brings me to a point..,the EPs/Creatives are active on social media..are aware of which character is connection and which is not..why would they still focus on someone who isnt clicking with audience..i am not saying that they need to change the storyline to pander fans but atleast cater to their liking in general?

No, did not make it to the movies past weekend and highly doubtful about the next one.


Not casting TS as a Tibetian iv came after the trailer was released, hence the furore before, which might have prompted that iv. Not seeing anything further in the media.

Aah..then its valid..if they thought it was a Tibetan character played by a white

With all the criticism going around, ABC might have considered it wise to get an actual Asian actor for Quantico. Apart from focusing on diversity (they have 1 or 2 shows with Chinese (???) actors), they also realize the built-in huge Indian audience they get from casting a known face from that part of the world. On the flip side, such controversies will also limit opportunities coz unless a role requires an Asian character, they won't cast Indian characters.

It's a double edged sword isn't it. I mean on one hand hey will get the ethnic characters but will probably not be case for the role which wouldn't require them but we're still cast for

ABC is totally promoting PC and it has a lot to do with showing multicultural representation...win win for both

Btw read something abt ABC TV upfront..what is it exactly

And apparently ABC is ranked 3 in all channels..who are the top two

Btw I think DP will benefit from this too..they will tryand hire more and more people from other races

JO worked with Jon Stewart before HBO offered him a talk show. JS is a very big name here. Myers was the head writer of Saturday Night Live (SNL), another hugely famous show here. Both are extremely talented.
SM weighs in on fake publicist issue - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGPzCTiHghA

I saw that one..it doesn't fail to surprise me as to how many stunts DT can pull amd yet not be completely written off..does it reflect the real mentality of native American males?? That they are ok with the bullshit he spews againsts diff races and women? Or it is that they are ready to ignore this in hope of what he brings to them..chance to be in the driver seat in their own country (which in their opinion os being flooded by immigrants..but then America is a land of immigrants..remove them and the country would probably collapsed..

Ur take?

I had read about Kejriwal ?ing Modi's degree but didn't connect the two. Reminds me of the birth certificate controversy of Obama when he became the president.

Why..what had happened..kejriwal is doing things to say in news and deflect attention from other issies

Shekhar K - The omnibus section seems to be about short romance stories set in Germany.

Aah ok

Mumbai Terror movie - will afford a different perspective for sure and I am sure someone in India will showcase another perspective.

True..

Thx for all the articles on China-India-Pakistan issues. Will read them in a bit. For some inexplicable reason, India's response appears severely lacking always coz never gets reported in media or what?

The response is def lacking..i can Understand the geopolitical difficulties..and the religious implications...we are stronger than the neighbour on the west but not as strong as the one on East..china sees India as a threat and hence allies with pakistan for their benefit..US would never interfere openly coz of their interest in Pakistan..so we are sort of left alone in this matter..add to that the different religions and ideologies in India..communists in far east states of India probably feel more at home with Chinese ideologies whereas the ones up north resonate with Pak thanks to religion

Having said that I firmly believe a strict stand is required asap

As for it beimg reported in media there..i think it's curated according to the what they deem important or want the people to know

Speaking of which..did this get reported?

http://www.punemirror.in/news/world/Obama-fights-to-save-450-mn-aid-for-Pak/articleshow/52315098.cms

If you hear of a good show, let me know. In the meantime will stick to KRPKAB only.


Suits - My guess is that Mike must be dressed casually for that scene but since Harvey was there too, I assume it is together 😃
As long as there is enuf evidence, don't see why WP should not be arrested. But he was released on bond.
I agree it is high time they start focusing on H-D. They did say s6 will have more humor and will be light compared to s5.


Have not seen RR 2.0 trailer yet...will watch it one of these days.
