Thanks to the fact that cord cutting is almost completely as expensive as cable these days, I canceled my Apple TV+ subscription after Ted Lasso ended. I thought for a second that I would have FOMO over For All Mankind’s next season, but based on this review, I don’t think I have much to worry about.

UNPOSSIBLE

Even the storyline I suggested would give me anxiety because I’m constantly afraid that some fucking whackadoodle Moms for Liberty type is going to assault my wife for having the Diary of Anne Frank available for sixth-graders.

The only problem is that most, if not all, of the actresses he mentions in the song are dead. Not exactly the vibe you are looking for when courting a new, younger audience.

Give True Lies its due - it’s not only a great popcorn flick (problematic anti-Arab sentiments notwithstanding), it’s also the first and last time anyone or anything has been able to honestly generate the word sequence “a hilarious Tom Arnold.”

I love this show, not just because my wife is an elementary school librarian. I would not want to see a school shooting episode because I live with the fear of that every day anyway.

There can be no improvement over the original conceit of MAN IN SUIT, IMO. Compared to MAN IN SUIT destroying obvious model cities on a tiny soundstage, everything else is just window dressing.

I always loved how his relationship with Joseph and Nancy developed and how devoted he was to them. That’s what makes KOTH so great, because it never sticks with stereotype - only pokes fun at it gently to show off humanity.

That’s because Emmerich et al. were trying to make “Jurassic Park but bigger.” So basically Gojira went from being man-in-suit to SKYSCRAPER-SIZED VELOCIRAPTOR. It was just an embarrassing exercise in penis envy (I still remember the ads for it before it opened... just terrible).

IIRC there was a mention in Johnny Hardwick’s obit about him having recorded several episodes’ worth of material for the reboot.

(Kids) Defying Gravity

There is simply no logic whatsoever to that choice. It’s like Lucas said to himself, “What if this droid had a COMPUTER VIRUS?” and laughed so hard that his turkey neck flipped up and slapped him in the forehead.

Finally, my dream of a gritty Star Scouts miniseries is coming to fruition!

No, don’t leave - this is an important question, because one of them is sadder than the other. (Full disclosure: to me, the idea of a droid having a chronic cough is one of the stupidest ideas Lucas ever had, and this is the guy who came up with Jar-Jar.)

True, but maybe Tom was just interested in a new (if not newer) model.

Capitalist.

Well, Rebecca Ferguson IS getting older and, after all, she was only 21 years younger than Tom Cruise... Xenu demanded it!

Having seen what the AV Club has become over the past few years, I’d have to answer, sadly, “Yes, really.”

I don’t damn David Hyde Pierce at all because turning Niles into a punchline would be both a travesty of justice and also one of the most Kelsey Grammer moves in history.

This entire family is just so fricking exhausting.
