This is mind-boggling. I guarantee you that no-one with power gives enough of a fuck about Brand to frame him for anything. He’s actually less relevant to public life than ever before, thanks to his alt-right grifter reinvention.

“Elon Musk also weighed in, posting “I support Russell Brand. That man is not evil.””

Fuck, that’s the harshest roast yet.

41st best comedian Stewart Leethought Brand was a wrong ‘un ...turns out he was right.

This is a strange argument. Apatow’s responsible for finding funny people to be in his movies, and for making sure those people behave professionally during the movies. Brand is very funny in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and none of the allegations here concern any conduct during the filming of an Apatow movie. I don’t…

Not only “if she says NO, it means NO”, but if she hasn’t said yes, or isn’t in a state to understand yes or no, then the status is NO.

I’m starting to think he doesn’t really want us to take his wife. Even though he said please. 

DC really has not learned from the MCU trailers has it? I think I just saw the whole plot from funny intro, to mid-film clash/downfall, to finale. When I went into Avengers: Endgame I had NO IDEA it was a heist movie, and I loved being surprised.

I’ll take this moment to plug Strike Force 5. It’s a podcast that the other late night hosts made, and all the ad revenue is going to their staffs. I don’t even watch late night shows since Craig Ferguson retired, but I’m enjoying it. It’s just four funny guys and Jimmy Fallon shooting the shit.

In the last strike, Letterman owned his show and agreed to the WGA demands, which allowed him to go back on the air. The other late night shows soon followed suit to compete.

Isn’t she, uh, quite unwell? There was the whole... butthole licking/boat purchasing thing recently. I think she needs help, not mockery.

I’d like to direct the commentariat to the way the members of the punk band Anti-Flag responded when their lead singer Justin Sane was accused in pretty much the same way Masterson was accused.

He’s always been a complete and utter knob. Right from the start. And listening to him now, on that new podcast with the 4 other late-night hosts, really drives home how truly talentless he is.

Most shite in Hollywood is not the fault of the writers. There’s a world of difference between having a good script and having a good finished product. Numerous other factors are in play; terrible studio notes, tight budgets, short schedules, actors , writers or directors falling short and of course various random…

How dare writers and work staff be paid enough to do more than eat scraps out of a dumpster. These unions are pure communism for working against the mega-wealthy, for sure.

The obese on welfare is compared immediately to those starving on the street. What better way to compare and contrast how the system is failing us than to show how it supplements those who don’t need more food to those who do need food.

The 3 or 4 lines about the “obese on welfare” undermine what you’re claiming the song is actually about. It would be dumb if he had only wasted one line on it.

“Still, it’s interesting to see Anthony reject the labels (and, presumably, some very lucrative offers and opportunities that accompany them), refusing to be a poster child for that particular set of beliefs.”

Friendly reminder that it isn’t “The Strike” that is killing shows, it is the corporate suits who refuse to negotiate in good faith with the unions who are killing shows.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if part of the reasoning for reneging on the planned second seasons is to attempt to sway public opinion. “We really want to provide you with the shows you love, honestly, but these unreasonable writers and actors are making it impossible with their ridiculous demands. Blame them, not…

“I was only coming onto Breaking Bad as far as I knew for that one episode, but there’s no accounting for taste, and the fans took a fancy to me,” he said.
