Aw, come on, that’s just mean! (See my other comment about having a soft spot for the Culkins.)

I have a not-so-secret “rooting for the Culkin kids” (they’re all grown now, of course). Their father was a notorious stage parent and the industry being such a meat grinder, I’m glad they seem to be ok and have genuine talent. Of all the misplaced things to care about...

LOL! I’m always rooting for Macauley Culkin.  I love him I can’t help it.

Cheated. Sabotaged his sobriety. Emotionally abused him. Cost him work. Mocked Michael Jackson. Gave him a marriage ultimatum. Led him on about getting married. Joined a competing satirical Velvet Underground tribute bound and sniped all the potential Pizza Underground mitzvah and wedding jobs. Greeted him only by…

“You might be asking yourself, “Why would Weezer, a band I stopped caring about over a decade ago, cover Toto’s “Africa,” the 1982 rawk song about cultural appropriation?” You’d be right to—and if you’re not, maybe you should? “ - Maria Sherman 

I’m going to assume that it’s because the original uses what most of us recognize as African rhythms in the background. The song itself is a word salad that sounds romantic with that rhythm section that has you nodding your head along to it.

How is “Africa” cultural appropriation? Because the storyteller happens to be there in the song? And please don’t attack me internet just want to know.

Thanks! I’ve seen the abbreviation used for both, it’s an easy mix-up.

Well yeah, Ivanka and Jared are......well you see.....hmmmm......they both.....oh how to put this delicately.....they’re Jewish.

I went to see Mel Tormé perform because Harry’s love for the Velvet Fog had rubbed off on me, and it was a great show, so thanks for that, Harry.

Having not seen the show in nearly 30 years, I’d be afraid to go back to Night Court now, for fear it wouldn’t hold up to my memory....because I remember it being one of the funniest off-beat comedies of my childhood.

Waaaay back when I was a littledigititis, I learned about compassion for people with mental illness from Night Court. Honestly the only other show I can think of from that era which displayed a knowing, compassionate appreciation for people who had to live with mental illness might’ve been M*A*S*H, but even then it…

Off-topic, but that old bit inspired my favorite thing in John Hodgman’s book The Areas of My Expertise, from a chapter on jokes that aren’t funny:

I live in Asheville and work a couple doors down from his magic shop that was never open. Legend has it he once bought an acoustic guitar from a busker for a couple of hundred bucks and then smashed it.

This hit me a lot harder than I thought it might.

I loved Night Court when I was a kid, and have caught some reruns as an adult. It holds up. He is the beating heart of that show. Bull, Dan, Ros, Christine, Mack, and others were great characters, but Harry Anderson grounded it, with his own sharp humor. Harry, Mel Torme, and corny magic tricks. 65 is far too young. I…

30 years ago he’d be singing the praises of The Cosby Show, so let’s all take this moment to realize the person and the show are two different entities. I’m getting tired of The Taint Game.

Better Call Saul writer Gordon Smith: "There’s a strain of thinking in our current TV culture that, in my opinion, prioritizes so-called ‘existential threats’ too much. Not knowing if any given character will live or die is supposedly the highest compliment one can give to a show. To me, this privileges surprise and…

His behavior alone after he pushes Jimmy away screams "I'M IN DENIAL ABOUT HOW MUCH I NEED MY BROTHER" and my heart still hurts thinking about it.
