The revelation that KJ is related to the Baker family is meant to be a big one, but having the truth come from the discovery of a revenge plot masterminded by KJ's briefly appearing grandfather only hurts the narrative. KJ's grandfather had been referenced a few times previously as a bad father who had a negative impact on Cassius while he was growing up, but had never appeared on screen until All American deemed it time to show that KJ's grandfather was Billy Baker's half-brother.

All American has devoted so much of Amina's arc to striving to uphold the positive aspects of her mother as Coop and Preach struggle to determine just when or how much of the truth about Monique's death to tell Amina as she has grown older and is asking questions. However, in "Just a Friend," the series undermines all of the emotional tethers to the storyline by having Amina discover the truth about her mother off-screen and then having her describe her findings to Coop.

When it comes to buying a Mother's Day gift, sometimes, it comes down to how well you know your mother. Flowers may be nice to look at, but without a green thumb, they will wilt, leaving the customer out of money and the mother out of a present. Buying a collectible item could be unique and different, but eventually, the question will rear its head of how long she will actually enjoy the present and how long it takes it to join storage space in a closet to never be seen again.

LeBron James started his career as a professional basketball player in 2003, starting his iconic career with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The White Lotus has lost all of its intrigue, excitement, and personality, as season three's most exciting feature is the cinematography of Thailand. Every season is beautiful to look at, but this time, not even the landscape is enough to make up for the lack of personality in any of the characters. It certainly does not help that every storyline presented is dull, as nothing pushes the overall narrative forward.

Shauna Shipman has grown worse in both timelines, and it is one of the best parts of season three. It was inevitable that Shauna and Melissa's relationship would come to a particularly brutal end, but Shauna's willingness to take it as far as pulling out the gun is strongly suggestive of how far gone her humanity is. Meanwhile, in the adult timeline, Shauna has no problems with forcing Melissa to eat part of her own flesh following ripping into Melissa's arm with her teeth.
