Paul Reubens has been cast as Mr. Vargas, a dapper, finicky ?muscle? who handles delicate situations in the criminal underworld, EW has learned exclusively. He?ll first appear in season two?s third episode, with the arc slated for at least two episodes. ?We?re forgoing the bow tie and the bicycle, and it?s going to be something totally different, and it?s gonna be awesome,? executive producer Jon Bokenkamp says. ?It can?t get strange enough for me. One of the most fun things is being able to write for actors who I?ve admired and think are interesting and try to play against expectations. I think this will be a fun one. I?d say he?s gonna shake things up a bit when he enters Red?s orbit.?

?It started with the character,? he says. ?We knew what he would feel like and sound like, and then as we started kicking around names, Paul?s name came up as, ?Well, that would be cool. That will never happen, but we might as well ask.'?

I tried really hard to like this show, but there's too many nagging problems with it. 

 

The feds have zero law enforcement skills and have never heard of backup.

Besides the main characters, some of the minor chars just don't seem to be written well.

It's violent for the sake of being violent.

It's filmed in NYC pretending to be DC, and it's way too obvious that it's NYC.

The production values are poor. I've seen scenes where they drive by the same block over and over and it's distracting.

Just watched the episode not that long ago, very good, and some big names in it btw.  Good start to season 2, next episode looks even better from the little preview at the end.

    • Given only Volume license customers and specific resellers can obtain the LTSC versions legitimately it seems likely that this has been tinkered with quite a lot!
    • Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Memory and chip shortages have led to significant price increases for electronics over the past year, and it seems that more hikes are on the way for upcoming smartphones and computers. Apple CEO Tim Cook has confirmed that the company is planning to increase the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cook confirmed the looming price hikes for Apple’s future products, adding that “Unfortunately, price increases are unavoidable.” He also said the company is doing its best to “mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we’ve been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable.” The Apple CEO also noted that the allocation of a large portion of memory chips to AI companies has contributed to shortages in the market, resulting in lower supply at a time when demand for devices remains high. “We definitely need memory pricing and supply to return to reasonable levels for consumer products. That’s the bottom line,” Cook said. Cook also added that Apple is ready to use its vast cash reserves to help boost supply in the market because additional production capacity is needed. While he declined to specify how Apple plans to do that, he said the company will not build its own memory and storage factories despite its financial resources and silicon expertise. Cook did not provide further details on the scale of the price increases or which Apple products would be affected, though iPads and Macs could see higher prices sooner than other products. Apple’s next product launch event is scheduled for September, when the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone. It remains unclear whether the upcoming iPhones will be affected by the price increases, but given the current memory shortage, higher prices seem increasingly likely. There is currently no clear timeline for the end of the memory shortage. Samsung, one of the world’s three largest memory chip manufacturers, recently said the shortage could persist for several more years.
    • Downloads does not equal actual usage, even less when the app is pre-installed in some Galaxy phones.
    • +1000 to this, don't understand why they added that margin around the top bar, even the close button is a PITA to click without aiming. Ofc, this is just preview and hopefully they will revert such odd UX decision before hitting final version.
    • so the people who bought this will get a refund?
