Does this seem any good? I am just not sure.

I'm basically tuning in to see to what degree Kerry Washington out-gorgeous-es every other breathing mortal on the red carpet.

Ugh at Jezebel thinking this is a good thing just because she is a woman she is vile and very right-wing, her comments on multi-culturalism showed how racist she is.

Good. Now loosen up the purse strings so Europe can recover from the recession; starvation economics never works.

I think there's a difference between a show lacking direction and elements within a show lacking "direction" (as KD is using it here). Seinfeld was airtight in its callbacks, airtight in connecting character assy-ness to something that character wants or that character's core understanding of the world. It all made

"My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. "

I think it's important we hold sitcoms up to the same standards as drama at least from a representation point of view, because they're watched far more by people who don't usually watch a lot of TV. Sitcoms have a huge influence on what we find funny and what we think is acceptable to laugh at, so the misogyny,

Uh, I majored in Gender & Women's Studies at a liberal arts women's college. EVERYTHING MUST BE CRITICALLY ANALYZED THROUGH THE LENS OF FEMINIST THEORY! AND THEN I NEED TO WRITE 6-8 PAGES ON IT!

It's like "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia." Those characters are terrible, terrible people, but the result is such hilarity.

Oh, pshaw. Mindy Lahiri is plenty likable. She's a flawed, funny, pain in the ass. Just like my wonderful, sweet, loving, dickhead, pain in the ass friends. And let's not ignore that this is Mindy Kaling's show. A non-lily white woman portraying a strong, funny female lead. Also, thank you for a weekly dose of Chris

I feel like almost every character on Mindy Project is jerky, with the exception of Morgan (good-hearted but a buffoon) and that mousy receptionist who doesn't get enough to do for me to learn her name. I also think Mindy is a funnier show than New Girl, because I think the cast is better all around. (At first I

It's both. Look at The Wire; that show was the best piece of entertainment/drama (TV or film) in the last decade, and it was snubbed routinely.

I guess my main take away is: people actually think New Girl is funny? I watched the first season and maybe some of the second, I'm not sure, but mostly for Schmidt. He was the only redeeming character. The whole, "Oh look at me, I'm so quirky and crafty and beautiful but can't get my shit together" schtick got old

That was actually in the show's mission statement: "no hugging, no learning."

Now playing

I'm not saying this is right, but before we get all western judgemental on them, the idea of sex as a requirement for soldiers is wholeheartedly espoused by western culture as well, too. This happens domestically, where you saw in WWI and WWII, for instance, there was a huge loosening of societal morals where young

SERIOUSLY! "Comfort women" aren't choosing their role and are thus being raped...we should call it what it is. I'm disappointed that a feminist publication is avoiding calling this out as rape.

I'm still wondering why Dr. Bailey has never been nominated. I love Greys unashamedly, and she is a great character. Maybe compared to everything else on tv, it's not the best, but it's still one of my fave shows.

It feels a little disingenuous to make a jab about media outlets and lurid headlines because they put "sex jihad" in them in an article that has "sex jihad" in its headline.

I was kind of hoping for some sort of "Lysistrata" scenario where the women of Tunisia were refusing to have sex until all jihadist hostilities ended.

Dear Penthouse Forum: I'd read these stories and never believed them until it happened to me! I'm a 23 years old jihadist, fighting for my rights (and Allah!). One night, I was cleaning my gun after evening prayers, when a black clad woman came into the corner of the bombed out building I had taken shelter in between
