Even more than the many written tributes this past week, the memorial reinforced to me how much I didn't know about Mr. Ebert.  More to the point, I quite underestimated the extent of his non-television work. Kevin is spot on about the production, but I had the impression that the streaming was

I believe it was actually The Good Wife that inspired a conversation about stuntcasting on a recent Sepinwall/Feinberg podcast that was pretty interesting. My memory is that the definition that they circled around that I found myself agreeing with is roughly that it counts as stunt casting if it i
