Her small size kills her in the Vegas finals. There's no way she can hit the mini-tramp with enough force to launch her up to the propeller, she just doesn't weigh enough.

Polite demons who would open a door for lady carrying too many parcels, but demons nonetheless!

Your mother's cheating on me.

He had it squirreled away in a shoe box.

They're not bitching about not being offered "primo" roles, they're bitching about constantly being offered the thug, gang member, and mammy roles. And that kind of problem has been talked about for a long time. Robert Townsend made Hollywood Shuffle in 1987.

I've enjoyed all the Ex-Heroes books except the last one, Ex-Isle. It felt a little rushed and perfunctory. Imagine my surprise when I got to the end to find a note from the author basically apologizing for the inadequacy of what I just read because he was more focused on writing The Fold.

I totally agree. I felt like with Murder House and Asylum they crammed at least half a season's worth of plot developments into nearly episode. They were ridiculous and messy, but they moved forward. Also, I actually cared about some of the characters.

I always appreciated how actions had consequences on this show. They all grew into a kind of family, but when they did shitty things to each other they didn't forget and they also didn't necessarily forgive.

I think a lot of pre-teen girls (and some boys, too) in the late 80s/early 90s also didn't understand that it was sexiest movie ever made, but they sure felt it.

Someone left the Fox News Channel on in the gym the other day and I was too lazy to turn it off. I must have heard the anchor say "The Islamic State savages" at least five times. All I could think was that they are very invested in having their audience hear "Islamic" and "savages" equated with each other over and

There are some derpy monster movies that traumatized me so hard as a child that I still won't watch them as an adult. The Gate is one of them.

I loved it when I was a kid, too, so I was excited when I found it on Netflix around last Halloween. It's very much a relic of its time. Maybe it's because I don't really have what I would consider "nostalgia" for tv shows and movies from my childhood, it didn't really bother me that it was a slow awkward pile of

My favorite thing about this season has been Nadiya's facial expressions. She has zero poker face. I've really loved watching her confidence grow. I wish a few more U.S. reality shows could just be about people trying their best to be the best and not trying their best to connive their way into a huge cash

I used to defend the tv show. Then I watched it again as an adult. I will be the first to say that it has aged terribly. And that I still find Peter Wingfield unbearably attractive.

I remember an interview Maddow did with Stewart (can't remember if he was on her show or the other way around) but she basically said to him, "I want to do exactly what you do," and he seemed genuinely alarmed. Like, "No no no, you're the NEWS and I'm a COMEDIAN. There's a big difference between what you do and what

I can't believe that I have no memory of this show. Did The Soup not cover it?

If you still haven't seen Grey Gardens, the whole film is on youtube, but you'll really only need to watch a few minutes minutes to get the genius of Armisen's and especially Hader's characterizations.

I've been seeing a lot of "The Irish had it much worse and they're not crying out for handouts now" memes going around lately. I wish it weren't the case, but I'm not strong enough to engage someone who holds those kinds of beliefs.

Anyone else get a flashback to that scene in Jessica Jones where Kilgrave's all "You ate in the best restaurants and lived in five-star hotels! How is that rape?" A well-fed and well-housed slave is still a slave. Considering people on that channel want their viewers to think that welfare and Medicaid are just ways

As much as I would like an American version and would definitely support it, part of the appeal for me is, well, the Britishness of the show - the accents, the different terms for foods and herbs and spices, etc. It's like a little window into a different culture and I find it very interesting.
