Maybe it’s sort of like being a Log Cabin Republican. Which I also don’t get.

OMG, such an Oscar winning performance, like everytime a pretty actor makes the ultimate sacrifice and goes ugly for a role.

I’ve been told (but can’t really speak from expertise) that Spanish-speakers born and raised in New Mexico sound like they stepped out of a time warp with the way they speak. Further south the Spanish gets more modern (though nothing like what you’d hear in Spain) but supposedly the strain in NM is really old-timey.

I remember a teacher who came back from a summer study abroad program. They went to a country where English wasn’t commonly spoken and were assigned a translator. Communication worked best when they tried to speak with a British accent, especially a more upper class one. As absurd as it sounded, he found his John…

There used to be a billboard I would see regularly. I don’t remember all the details but the part that seared in my brain is a picture of a girl in her late teens, along with the words “Heroin kills” and “We miss you Haley!” There were more words, but the part that sticks with me is this girl and the idea that the…

This is probably a good point to mention that he BFF still looks good. I think he mostly does theatre now, which is too bad because we’re missing out.

It’s funny, in an interview the creator said that CBS kept pressuring to dumb it down, that his spin-off of a kids’ show was too smart for the CBS audience. They should try again in this post-30 Rock age of comedy.

That ABC Family series was a strong argument that she would take any job. It also is a strong argument that her fans will watch her in anything.

I think we need to talk about how Republicans keep saying that “practicing Christianity” means discriminating against gay people. Did they add that to services? Like before the communion, a gay person comes up and asks for equal rights and the whole congregation refuses? Then they go up and consume Jesus’ body?

This is why we need Joe Biden to be part of the campaign. Can we find a role for him other than candidate? Can he just have a podium at every debate where he gets to comment when he feels like it?

Doubt is a CBS show with Tony Phelan and Joan River listed as its creators. Rhimes isn’t producing it. Which is too bad because ABC could probably charge extra if they had Laverne Cox in a Shonda Rhimes show.

No. If Scandal has a crossover it must be a Doctor Who crossover where the Doctor takes Mellie back in time so she can kill Fitz’s dad before Fitz is conveived. It just solves so many of Scandal’s problems.

I found the other one! I remember in the early days of Breaking Bad there were a bunch of articles that felt the need to express the different tones of BB and MiM by saying that there probably wasn’t a lot of crossover between Cranston’s last two shows. I’d be yelling “Cranston’s the entire reason we watched Breaking…

Jenji Kohan is a much better showrunner imo with really good original shows (Weeds, OITNB)

I remember asking this as a kid, I’m so glad I had the kind of teacher who would explain that even if some slave owners weren’t extreme black hat characters, that didn’t make it any less of a black mark on our history.

Oprah cancelled an interview with them after investigating a tip about Josh’s abuse. You’d think a network would have a few more resources before it greenlights a show than Oprah does about a single episode.

What are you talking about? Do you think something like Fox and Friends can be created by normal humans? Clearly there’s a hellmouth on set so that the cast and crew can commute to work easily.

Unless you’ve worked a shift of strenuous labor, a whole chipotle burrito is too much for a meal.

There are plenty of people who can rant about the dangers of Sharia law and about those baby-kiling liberal abortionists. Also, people who will warn LGBT people that they underestimate how much Muslims hate queer people, so they should vote Republican.

Remember the freakout in 2008 when a report warned that right wing terrorist groups might try to recruit veterans and make use of their training? Fox News screamed that Obama (who wasn’t yet in power when the report was commissioned) was calling the troops terrorists and opporessing Christianity. They backed off…
