  • Dare I say it: but if NTTD goes straight to streaming, I know Babs is working the phones hard to get DC and CJF to do Bond 26. This is NOT the way DC would want to go out. Then again...maybe it is.

  • I never considered Craig's SF or SP suits as too tight. In fact, they look a little loose compared to what we've seen in men's fashion lately. Let's hope we never see Bond like this:
