Fun new tradition:

If you’re in a bar and “Margaritaville” comes on, smash every glass you can get your hands on until it stops playing.

The series or the movie? If the series, Jacob Anderson’s performance is stellar.

I promise, I'm not paid to support any movie, but I am going to go out of my way to support this one. It was fun, it was different, it had some important themes, and I totally dug it:
