I feel like in the discussions of Trump’s misogyny there hasn’t been enough discussion about his consistent disgust at the effects of pregnancy on the body. I remember him saying Melania’s breasts were monsters. This is in addition to that lawyer who he called disgusting when she needed to take a breast pump break and…

I feel like critics have mostly given up on anything that has a procedural structure, especially in genre shows. There is a kind of mega narrative that certain procedural from the 80s and 90s that had some serialized content pushed the medium forward and now it’s all about the longer story arc. (Alan Sepinwal wrote a…

He’s really defensive, enthusiatic about the show. He got upset at a columnist who used Full House as an example of tv shows giving her an unrealistic view of life. Bob Sagat and Dan Coulier have both appeareed on his current sitcom, Gandfathered. (Sagat did twice, once as a cameo, once as Stamos’s character’s…

I started watching Babylon 5 when I realized The X-Files had lost the plot of their myth-arc and wanted to see proof that long term storytelling could be done without completely loosing it. I will always be grateful for it.

Wow, everything is not he table and it’s ridiculous. Thank you kindly.

Thnk you kindly.

I don’t get ther reference. Please explain the dinasour?

My take away is that by annoying his competitors until they give up he won.

I quit after the season whe Ali was back and Ezra was suspected of being A. It had a season finale that recapped basically the entire series and summed up how I was more interested in the earlier stories and the replacement ones just didn’t have that grab.

I don’t actually watch the show, but in reading the responses to Ani’s story I find myself troubled. I know that a lot of her story falls into cliches but there are psychological truths in it and they do follow some real world recorded patterns. It’s like by trying to demand better roles for women, we the commentators…

A quick correction: That year Denzel Washington won an Oscar for Training Day, so he was playing a cop. He earlier won one for Glory in which he played a slave turned Union Soldier. I do agree with your comparison.

I’m so enraged that we’ve been reduced to this constant need to be sorry and ashamed over a necessary legal medical procedure.

My mistake, I haven’t seen it in years. Still it’s an interesting counter to the Loretta Young story.

The Godfather also begins with a description of a date rape. Thats why at the whole “I believed in America” speech turns into.

I’ve often seen that scene refered to as a rape. I have no idea what Margaret Mitchell or David O Selznick or anyone else making the film thought. (I think it only doesn’t look like agape in the parodies/homages.) It’s one of the many disturbing aspects of the film.

Reading the full article what has seemed like a really weird Hollywood affair all made a terrible sense. I feel so bad for Loretta and Judy, may they both Rest in Peace.

Carrie Brownstein identifies as bi, but I’ve mostly heard of her with other women.

Yes, CA demands that the property be evenly divided after 10 years. I remember when Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman broke up he tried to say their separation was earlier than the anniversary so to avoid it. The prenup speculation probably has some truth to it.

I never watched the episode but I remember it came out around the time Sarah Palin first had a national stage. She complained that it was mocking Down’s Syndrome. The DS a voice actress basically told Palin to fuck off.

Maggie Sawyer was made Commissioner at the end of Batman Eternal. I’m most interested in if she has a role in this story going forward.
