Cynthia Nixon is finally addressing the Che of it all.
During an interview with Variety, Nixon admitted that her “And Just Like That” onscreen love interest Che Diaz was a “controversial character” for the Max series. Actor Sara Ramirez, who uses they/them pronouns, portrayed stand-up comic Che for two seasons on the “Sex and the City” revival show; Ramirez parted ways with the show in February 2024 ahead of production on Season 3.
“They created such an amazing character — such a controversial character, but such an amazing character,” Nixon said of Ramirez. “I think they felt, and Michael Patrick [King] felt, that that character had run its course. They came in and shook everything up, and then the arc was completed.”

Nixon, whose quarter-century portrayal of beloved character Miranda Hobbs, added, “I do feel like our show always works best when people are dating.”
Prior to Max’s announcement, Ramirez previously hinted they were no longer part of the show due to their support of Palestine.
Ramirez took to Instagram on January 16, 2024, to call out a “duplicitous” Hollywood; their post referred to Che as a “performative” character they once “played.” Their exit from “And Just Like That” was made official in February.
“Our industry is so duplicitous. While they give awards away, casting directors and agents are making blacklists of actors and workers who post anything in support of Palestinians in Gaza to ensure they will not work again,” Ramirez wrote. “While they lift up some of their own clients who have spoken up against this genocide, they are firing and letting others who have smaller platforms go.”
They continued, “While they award ‘LGBTQ orgs,’ they are silent on those orgs’ ties to weapons manufacturers who are currently supporting the Israel military as it commits genocide on Palestinian lives that include LGBTQIA2S+ lives.”
The “Grey’s Anatomy” alum added, “I get it. Awards are shiny and people need to pay their rent or feel special and powerful. Meanwhile we are beyond the 100 day mark on this ‘war’ that has been acknowledged by many, including the ICC, as a genocide. It’s wild how performative so many in Hollywood are. Even more performative than the last character I played.”
They shared in a P.S. addition, “Don’t let the tabloids distract you from what’s happening in Gaza. Really nice try, though.”
In a separate post, Ramirez voiced their gratitude for those who have supported them “in healing and getting free,” especially when it comes to understanding “the layers of conditioning, socialization, and trauma.” Nixon has also voiced support for Palestine amid the Israel-Hamas war.
Welcome to another edition of Five Things I Liked (Or Didn’t Like) This Week. I’m not sure that Zach Lowe, the progenitor of this format and an incredible NBA writer, ever thought that it would get spun off into baseball. I’m certain that he didn’t think it would get spun off into baseball by someone who likes both popups and bunts an unhealthy amount. But here we are. Speaking of which, I know what you’re thinking: What does Ben think about the two catcher’s interference infield flies from this week? I thought they were more annoying than amusing, and that’s not what we’re about here at Five Things. So let’s talk about a far more delightful popup, plus some infield hits, pretty pitches, and exciting series.
1. A Schwarbloop Kyle Schwarber hits majestic home runs. Sometimes they hang in the air for an improbable length of time. Sometimes they get out of the park before you can blink. Not only is there a name for them – Schwarbombs – but Wawa even makes a drink named after them. You can’t get any more Philadelphia than that.
Schwarber hit one of those magnificent bombs he’s known for on Monday. Boy, did that thing take off:
But whatever. That’s boring! He hits a lot of homers. I want to talk about his single that went farther upward than it did forward and ended up behind home plate:
That’s a colossal blast of a short popup. The afternoon sun in San Francisco is merciless, too, which explains how the fielders looked like this:
That ball might as well have been invisible, for all the luck Patrick Bailey and Erik Miller had in finding it. It only narrowly avoided clocking Miller on its way down. Matt Chapman was theoretically in charge, but he wasn’t really. He just got less blinded than the other two and tried to make the best of a bad situation.
Amazingly, the gusting wind took command and turned the ball back in toward home plate. By the time it hit the ground, with three Giants helplessly converging around it, the momentum had turned squarely toward foul territory:
Through his legs! That’s truly remarkable. Schwarber hit the ball way up in the air and out in front of home plate, and he and the wind combined to roll it right back over the plate after touching down fair:
I can understand how this is theoretically possible. Almost all of the force Schwarber imparted into the ball was directed straight up, so the forward velocity of the ball was quickly killed by the wind, and then the wind started pushing it backward on that plane. By the time it hit the ground, it was headed backward.
That’s the mathematical explanation, but let me put it this way: You could play a baseball-themed version of HORSE all day and never hit that shot. “High pop, land it 15 feet fair, curl it back foul behind home plate, through the catcher’s legs.” It’s the baseball equivalent of bouncing one off the floor, off the backboard, and then off the rim and in.
Should it have been a hit? Eh, probably not. It doesn’t look like Bailey touched it before it rolled foul, though I’m hardly certain:
But it’s not reviewable, and to be honest with you, I didn’t want it to be reviewed. That should count as a hit on degree of difficulty alone. It’s the least likely thing I saw all week, maybe all year.
2. The Counsell Bowl
The Cubs and Brewers had already played in Chicago this year, but the first meeting in Milwaukee was circled on everyone’s calendar. Craig Counsell managed the Brewers for nine years and oversaw their ascent to a perennial playoff contender and one of the best-run franchises in baseball. Then he left, for a division rival no less.
The team played a tribute video before the first game of the series, but fans booed Counsell anyway. I don’t blame them; give it a few years, and I’m sure the good memories will overwhelm the sting of betrayal, but seeing your guy in their colors for the first time is always going to engender some boos.
That aside, this series had everything, and I’m excited for this rivalry, already a hotly contested one, to become one of the best in baseball for the next few years. These games were tense. Justin Steele and Robert Gasser pitched to a scoreless tie on Monday, and when Gasser flagged, the Brewer ’pen picked him up, like it did for so many years under Counsell. The Cubs relievers… yeah, they did not do that. Mark Leiter Jr. and Hayden Wesneski came in and gave up two walks and three hits, including a back-breaking Willy Adames home run, to turn a close game into a laugher.
Adames was nearly the hero again the next day, when he broke through against yet another high-leverage Cubs reliever, Héctor Neris, with two outs in the bottom of the ninth. His game-tying single rendered Ben Brown’s seven no-hit innings irrelevant and briefly put the Brewers back in the driver’s seat.
The Cubs bullpen has been awful this year; their relievers have a 4.48 ERA, and their closer has as many walks as strikeouts. But their starters keep putting them in a position to win, and on Tuesday, the offense came through with a five-run outburst in the 10th. There were high tensions, assistant pitching coach ejections (Neris had a controversial balk that put a runner in scoring position for Adames), and big defensive plays.
After coming up empty against Steele and Brown, the Brewers offense exploded for seven runs against Cubs ace Shota Imanaga on Wednesday. Adames, as he always seems to be, was in the middle of it. The Milwaukee crowd went wild. The Brewers closed out the series yesterday by taking down Chicago’s bullpen yet again; after the Cubs rallied to tie the game 4-4 in the eighth, Luke Little and Tyson Miller combined to yield two runs and the game. Miller, who relieved Little with two outs and Christian Yelich on third, promptly surrendered the decisive blast, a two-run Gary Sánchez home run.
It’s tough to imagine that every series these two teams play this year will be so electric. Counsell’s first return to Milwaukee was always going to be an event, and the teams being in first and second place at the time added to it. Three of the four games were tied late, and the other featured one of the most exciting pitchers in the game getting tattooed by the home team. This is 2000s-era Yankees/Red Sox stuff, two good teams whose fans don’t like each other, with Counsell’s defection upping the stakes for Milwaukee, a city that often feels big-brothered by nearby Chicago. The two teams play only six more times this year, and hearing that, I find myself longing for the 19-games-vs.-each-divisional-opponent schedule to come back so we can see more games like these.
3. Brilliant Baserunning
One item wasn’t enough to capture that magnificent series. Cubs rookie Luis Vazquez has batted only once in the majors, and he struck out on four pitches and three swings at breaking balls in the dirt. He’s organizational depth the team hopes not to have to use, and in fact they’ve already sent him back to the minors. In Tuesday’s game, however, he showed off the kind of baseball IQ that you can’t teach.
Guys like Vazquez don’t normally get into high-leverage games, but catcher Miguel Amaya was the designated runner for Chicago in the top of the 10th, and that sounds like a job for Vazquez.
First things first: I hope Megill is OK. He seems set to avoid an IL stint and only has a bruise to show for it. But it was surely a nasty bruise. Tauchman hit that ball hard and right into Megill’s forearm. He immediately recoiled in pain; there was no way he was fielding it:
Poor William Contreras was in a bind. He couldn’t go out and get the ball, obviously; you can’t run 50-ish feet in catcher’s gear, pick up a ball, change directions, and make it back home faster than a speedy runner already rounding third. The math just doesn’t work. Abandon home plate, and the run scores. All Contreras could do was point and hope that Vazquez didn’t realize the predicament:
Vazquez realized it. He was coasting until he got to third, keeping his eye on the play and doing his job by getting a base closer to scoring. Then he did the math and hit the jets:
Every single Brewers fielder was caught between obligations. The corner infielders had runners headed for their bases; they were more or less rooted to the spot when they saw the ball hit Megill, because if he recovered to field it, they needed to be in position to receive a throw. Adames headed to second in case the line drive got through, then stayed there because someone needed to stop Tauchman from getting a free base. Brice Turang had started the play a step in front of the outfield grass, so he surely wasn’t part of any plan for who should field a ball at the pitcher’s mound.
Perhaps someone missed an assignment; maybe Turang should have crashed for second while Adames charged the mound or something like that. Maybe Owen Miller should have abandoned first base as soon as he saw Megill hopping off, giving up on recording an out to secure the baseball. But none of those plays made much sense in the moment. Instead, everyone just pointed:
The logic is simple: If the ball hits the pitcher and then squirts away toward a fielder, it’s now that fielder’s responsibility, with either the pitcher or another fielder replacing them. But Megill was in no position to replace anyone, and the only fielder the ball was even remotely near was Contreras, who also happened to have the least abandonable base. The Brewers simply had no good plays.
With a less alert runner (or base coach), it might not have mattered. Miller actually gave up on Tauchman fairly quickly and went for the ball. But Vazquez put the pieces together more quickly and realized he could score. So he did. A slower initial break might have left him out of position to score. A more conservative base coach might have screamed at him to stop. A more aggressive defense might have limited the damage to runners on first and third. But none of that happened, and Vazquez capitalized.
This play ended up mattering far more because it knocked Megill out of the game than because Vazquez scored. As I mentioned up above, the Cubs scored five runs in the inning. Any number of hits and walks would have driven a runner in from third. But that doesn’t change the brilliance of the play. Taking every risk-free base the other team gives you is a key part of baserunning, and this was an incredible, albeit unorthodox, example of what it looks like at its best.
4. GrayRod’s Right/Right Changeup
I’m a simple man. I like the finer pleasures in life. A nice hot coffee in the morning, a nice cold lemonade in the afternoon, a nice dinner in the evening, and right-on-right changeups thrown with impeccable command:
Oh my goodness, these are fun. Grayson Rodriguez has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to pitch quality, but his changeup is probably his best. He uses it most frequently against lefties, nearly a third of the time, and that’s just good pitching strategy. He has a nasty slider, somewhere between gyro and sweeper, that righties struggle to deal with. He shelves that against lefties, of course, but he’s largely fastball/slider to righties.
That’s how changeups get used across all of baseball. It’s a shape thing, basically; slow pitches that break toward righties don’t work well if they aren’t located well, so pitchers opt for better options instead. But if you have a cambio as good as Rodriguez’s, it would be a waste to completely give it up just because of pesky platoon issues.
He doesn’t break it out often, but when he does, it’s frequently a thing of beauty. That pitch to Vaughn Grissom looked hittable right until it took a sharp turn downward. In-breaking movement? Sure, maybe, but that doesn’t matter when the batter swings over it by a foot.
It’s a great tool for dealing with hitters who cover his fastball and aren’t biting on the slider. Julio Rodríguez has been heating up, but he was no match for this diving change:
That pitch is a great out pitch, and that’s the way that Rodriguez most frequently gets righties with the changeup. But his command with it is good enough that he can back-door it for a strike too:
Sometimes, he can tuck it in the zone with enough action to miss a bat anyway:
This is never going to be more than an occasional mix-in. The fastball/slider combo is just too good, and he even has a plus curveball for a down-breaking option if the slider isn’t working. But what an option to have! Rodriguez looks like he’s fulfilling the promise he showed as a prospect, and these changeup punctuation marks are a big part of it.
5. Death-Defying Bunts
Major leaguers have attempted nine bunts in two-strike counts this year. They’ve gone predictably poorly. Four have ended in foul bunt strikeouts. One ended with a swinging bunt strikeout, and yes, it’s as embarrassing as it sounds:
Another one ended in absolute madness:
There’s a ton to unpack on that play, like whether it made sense for Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to play the ball fair and try for the out at home. But that’s not why I’m writing about this today, so let’s keep going. Another two two-strike bunts have turned into successful sacrifices. The ninth? Well, that one happened on Wednesday, and that’s why I’m writing this item:
Was that a good plan? I actually think it was. Michael Siani had already bunted a ball foul earlier in this at-bat, when he was trying to advance Masyn Winn to second. The Reds were so worried about Winn that they called a pitchout, even. But Winn tried to steal second on 1-1 and got caught. That left Siani in a 1-2 hole, and the defense moved back accordingly. Jeimer Candelario had been playing outrageously close at the start of the at-bat:
That’s a pretty unfriendly defensive alignment, and Siani’s foul bunt was pushed down the first base line. But with no runner on and two strikes, Candelario moved from crashing to playing where the shortstop normally lines up:
You’re just not gonna get a better defensive alignment to attack with a bunt than that. The whole expanse of grass by third base is open for the taking! A ball anywhere in that general vicinity is probably going to land. And not to put too fine of a point on it, but Siani is a bad hitter. He has a 61 wRC+ this year, with a pile of strikeouts and few extra-base hits or walks. He was in a 1-2 hole. This movie usually doesn’t end well for the batter.
The question, then, is whether Siani could keep the ball fair. He really didn’t need to do anything more than that against this gaping-void style of defense:
If you think that a fair bunt will result in a hit half the time, the numbers actually support his decision. He’s laid down 16 bunts this year; 10 have been fair and six have been foul. In the majors, he has a .244 OBP after a 1-2 count; five out of 16 works out to .313. More broadly, he has a career .248 OBP overall, and we project him for a .293 mark the rest of the way. This is the kind of chance you can’t pass up if you’re a good bunter getting played passively. By the same token, the Reds were too casual with their defense here. I’m not sure how many outs they pick up in the long run with the near-overshift they deployed, but it can’t be enough to offset the fact that they’re letting a poor hitter in a bad count bunt his way on. It’s one thing to shift against a terrifying slugger, and a different thing entirely to shift against the major league leader in sacrifice bunts.
Is Siani the long-term solution for the Cardinals in center? Probably not. He’s a brilliant defender, but the guy really can’t hit major league pitching. I hope I’m wrong, though, because he’s a blast to watch both in the field and on the basepaths. More well-considered bunts like this one will certainly help.
The hit anime series My Hero Academia is reaching its most climactic moments, meaning that the major conflicts tied to the villain All For One will be faced head-on by Deku and his allies. As the major villain, All For One — AFO for short — has become more integrated into each episode, but sadly, his important role has fallen flat. Not every villain is meant to be exactly the same, but compared to another similar character, AFO missed some critically important details.
As his role in the story grows, it becomes clear that All For One isn't the most effective villain. Similar in villainous approach and style, the character Orochimaru, from Naruto, is the best example of what AFO should have been all along. Issues of poor character development and shortsighted use of specific details are why All For One is a weak part of My Hero Academia's narrative.

All For One is believed to be immortal -- but is there any truth to this? And if there is, how did he manage to accomplish such a feat?
What All For One Should Have Been
Breaking All For One and his role down into general terms, he is the main antagonist of My Hero Academia, which naturally comes with some specific traits for him to follow. As the main antagonist, All For One needs to have the most impact on the characters and the narrative. Major villainous antagonists are the source of the story's major conflicts, which contrasts with the heroic protagonist, who is the source of the major resolutions.
This role of a major villain also means that he is meant to pose the most daunting challenge for the protagonist. The main antagonist role is central to the story from beginning to end, which is why that impact needs consistent build-up and development. This doesn't mean that all major villains need to have everything revealed about them but to make the point that this is the biggest obstacle for the hero, the narrative needs to enforce that idea in various ways.
The impact of a heinous villain can be felt through development of side characters or scenarios. If a villain uses manipulation — a common vile tactic — then the point should be made of how damaging that manipulation is to other characters. If a villain uses political power as a strength, then the impact on society needs to be shown. This could be done through larger associations or community-impacting events. In the same way that the main hero needs to be developed, the main villain needs that same treatment, otherwise they are presented as flat and fail to uphold their important role.
Going back to AFO as a focus, MHA appears to have been going for a manipulative criminal mastermind who gains power from the people he controls. This point is made across the series in very direct ways and is especially clear when it comes to his mentorship of Tomura. The issue with his character is that he isn't given enough development to show what kind of villain he is.
A Lack of Screentime And Motivation Is Why All For One Is Superficial
Through the first two seasons, All For One's character is one of the anime's greatest mysteries. This mysterious nature of his character is interesting and keeps the audience wondering what he will do next, since his protégé, Tomura Shigaraki, is still growing as a villain and hasn't fully fit into the role of main villain. Keeping AFO a secret is a great way to gradually build him up as a villain, leading up to his reveal in season three. Viewers finally receive more substance about the villain's character when he fights against All Might.
All For One is given some background and tension with his relationship with the symbol of peace. When pitted against each other in the Third Season, the two have clear tension in their antagonistic relationship and provide one of the franchise's greatest battle. This is when AFO's development reaches its highest peak as a villain. Moving forward, he falls into the background again and continues to leave the planning up to Tomura.
While All For One's villain mentorship of Tomura perfectly mirrors All Might's heroic tutelage of Deku, the difference is that All Might is shown to take action and have a direct impact. Despite AFO idling in the background for most of the anime, he repeatedly states how he has everything under control and his plans are always working out. Granted, the idea of a villain who is always one step ahead is thrilling to watch; however, the way it's depicted in MHA makes no sense.
All For One is stated to have strength in connections, which would mean that he is charismatic or naturally knows how to influence others. His Quirk can steal and grant others' Quirks, and while there are a few characters throughout the anime who have been impacted by this, it isn't shown as his greatest asset in manipulation. Few scenes show AFO's connections and relationships, so while his manipulation is understood as absolute, the skill is never developed on screen. He just appears to have his way without making much effort; this is also a common anime issue of telling and not showing the viewer, which results in bland, surface-level storytelling.
All For One was also meant to be a villain who had a critical impact on society. He is essentially the King of the underworld, having enormous sway over the network of villains — but that is never shown. It's also an issue of the underside of society being overshadowed by the hero's society and only a few villains being given development. While there is a national and global network and societal system for the heroes, the side of the villains is depicted to have nothing. Even while there are groups like the Shie Hassaikai, and the Paranormal Liberations Front, they are barely, if at all, tied to a larger society and have no connections whatsoever to AFO — who is meant to be so well-known among villains.
There is also the issue of All For One's lackluster motivation for his actions. While Deku has an affinity for heroism, AFO is briefly depicted as having an affinity for evil. His great dream is to become the Evil Overlord of the world, which is fine as a starting point. Without relying on sympathy or trauma, a villain's personality traits and body language can say a lot about their motivation. As a quick example, Jujutsu Kaisen's Sukuna has limited background, but everything in his body language, speech patterns, and reactions to other characters shows that his arrogance and desire to be above others are tied to his motivation. All For One doesn't have these details since all he does is sit idly and grin.
Showing more of All For One's character and direct impact would have gone a long way in developing him as a villain. He is meant to be this overwhelming figure and force of power, but that is rarely depicted throughout the series. To emphasize, this does not mean a full background needs to be given. What is needed for any major villain is enough screentime to characterize them as an evil threat.

All For One and Orochimaru both seek vessels in which to place their immortal legacies.
For the first part of Naruto, the main antagonist is the character Orochimaru. Like many major villains, he is first introduced with an air of mystery and horror, being labeled as a threat. The reason why he earns the role of an impactful main villain is because of how carefully he is developed.
Orochimaru's Name Strikes Fear For A Reason
Throughout the Naruto franchise, the majority of villains are given sympathy. The approach to Orochimaru's character isn't that far off, but the villain himself is far from sympathetic. In his background, Orochimaru was born in Konoha village and recognized immediately for his natural genius. During a time of war, the Third Hokage relied on his talents in ninjutsu in the hopes that he would bring a time of peace; unfortunately he ignored the darker side of Orochimaru's character.
Orochimaru is one of many whose parents died when he was just a boy, but in place of emotional grief, his mind is naturally inclined to lead him to scientific thought, which is a strong part of his genius. His villainy is revealed as an adult when he is caught performing experiments on human beings of all ages. Orochimaru's genius led him to think of life as an endless source of experiments. Devoid of emotion, he ignores ethics and has no sympathy for others.
The story's narrative is inherently about human potential: Should people be more realistic and strong or should they be more idealistic and compassionate? With this concept in mind, Orochimaru serves as the perfect antagonist. He doesn't believe in friendships or love like the protagonist does, nor does he think that nature can change with effort. His main goal might not be the most straightforward, but fits perfectly with his character. Essentially working as a mad scientist of sorts, Orochimaru's main goal is to discover the most powerful jutsu, which is a huge fascination for him. Knowing fully well that he won't live long enough to reach his goal, he continues to break the rules of ethics and figures out how to keep himself alive using human sacrifices.
Orochimaru Uses The Same Tactics As All For One But Puts Them To Use
Beyond narrative and character, Orochimaru repeatedly proves how he has an impact with physical strength. During the Chuunin Exam, while his character was still a bit of a mystery, Orochimaru's fight scenes showed that he has skills of speed, diversion, and power, as well as overwhelming jutsu. As the series progresses and the battles become more intense, Orochimaru shows that he has more up his sleeve and is strong enough to hold his own against almost any opponent. In particular, his fight against Naruto in his four-tails form is regarded as one of the best fights.
As a villain, Orochimaru uses manipulation of his connections to make him stronger. While there are some characters shown to be simply afraid of being killed by Orochimaru, there is far more loyalty in his associations. Like in My Hero Academia, Naruto also depicts a society that has a hidden underbelly that threatens peace. For one thing, Naruto actually shows the circumstances and motivations of these side villains and hidden societies. Orochimaru takes advantage of these groups' needs and uses them to gain loyal soldiers who will die for him at any given moment.
This exploitation is shown throughout the anime and builds up his impactful role. He is not only strong on his own or has heinous qualities; the series shows how Orochimaru earns the loyalty that gives him the support he needs to be one of the most impactful villains. His experiments are depicted as a tool that inspires his followers that anything is possible. The reason why Orochimaru works as a manipulative villain is because he is given as much characterization and screentime as he needs to fulfill the role.
My Hero Academia's All For One and Naruto's Orochimaru are similar as main villains who use manipulation as their greatest asset. They also leave a critical mark on the underbelly of their respective societies. Orochimaru is more successful and impactful in his role because the viewer understands his character and motivation and, in practice, it's truly heinous. All For One, on the other hand, is a one-dimensional villain because he is barely given any development. Despite being in one of the most significant roles, AFO is forced into the background and rarely shown how he finds his version of success.
