Netflix originally tried to get the better programs in the Jayhawk Conference to do a season of LCU

Indy was actually Netflix's third or fourth choice. Schools like Butler, Garden City, and Hutchinson all turned down the show.

Would have been interesting to see a season or two from one of the more established programs in the conference. They didn't want to deal with the drama that the show brought though.

Am I the only one who absolutely hated the Laney season?

I think seasons 1-4 were great to watch, even when Indy imploded in season 4. The Laney season was the nail in the coffin of the show. I think it was by far the least interesting and entertaining. It almost seemed more like a documentary about the gentrification and problems of Oakland than about the football.

The season 4 Indy team collapse

It would have been during the 2018 football season I guess. I am going through that season again. My favorite season of Last Chance U as that team was so unlikeable that it was fun to see them lose.

Did the show hype the talent the team had up a little more than what they realistically were. Or were they indeed that talented and it was just a total team collapse?

I know watching the season a big problem was how JB handled the quarterback situation. He couldn't decide on a QB and would often play multiple QB's in games.

Also I am sure they were running into a problem where players were only there because they wanted to be on TV as Last Chance U would have been well known by that point.





I think think it would be cool to start up another Junior College football series again now during the NIL and Transfer Portal era.

To show how much different recruiting is these days with how D1 schools are now plugging their holes through the transfer portal instead of Juco.

I'm sure many of the same types of players are still in Juco but the chances of moving up are even slimmer now than they were when Last Chance U was running.

Does anyone have the recipe for the pasta Meghan makes for Daniel in the first episode of her show?

It’s the one where she sautés the onion and garlic (or something?) and then adds pasta and already boiling water and then adds greens?

I’ve made it before and it’s amazing but I made it almost directly after watching the episode. I can’t remember the details of how to make it and I can’t access the show but want to make that dish in roughly 2-3 hours 😬

Please help!

Seriously, trying to keep up with Robert Durst’s mess feels like decoding ancient hieroglyphics while blindfolded.

Traveling in Africa for Documentary

Sorry if this shouldn't be in this sub, but I'm planning on traveling (mainly backpacking) through Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and finally through South Africa to make a documentary on Rock Climbing in Africa. I have all of my gear ready to go, but I am unsure about traveling because my crew is very small. It would be great if we had a guide(s) to come with us on the way obviously to help with navigating but also for the safety aspect. I was wondering if anyone has done anything similar and has any advice.

Thanks all!
