Today's post was supposed to be shitty companies who use AI photos for their products who then ship you crap that doesn't match the image of what they sold you... but I just finished watching The Residence on Netflix, and cannot shut up about it.

I cannot fathom this series dropping out of my top five favorite shows of 2025. And I'm dying to see more of "The World's Greatest Detective," Cordelia Cupp, and hope we get a second season. And a third. And a tenth...

They apparently built the largest, most accurate set of The White House ever constructed, but it's more than that. They did some incredible doll-house shots that I found myself rewinding and re-watching again and again. These scenes are alive with people moving through it, and are incredible to behold...

And while I adore absolutely every last person in this phenomenal cast, the dynamic between Uzo Aduba and Randall Park is mind-blowing. How? How did they manage to figure this out when casting? And while I am profoundly sad that the amazing Andre Braugher died and had to be replaced in a major role, I have to say Giancarlo Esposito did such a remarkable job. Different than his usual characters. A beautiful performance really. I love, love, love this show.

WELL WORTH YOUR VALUABLE TIME! Thank you Shondaland for this exceptional show!
