I don’t know that I’ve ever felt more condescended and insultingly pandered to than I did while watching Secret Girlfriend.

Go on an ambitious enough crime spree and you can become the lead character on the longest-running program in TV history: Your Local News.

Anyone else remember a Comedy Central show called Secret Girlfriend that was shot from a first-person POV?

Unfortunately, Abby’s is not good.

“Lana Condor” is pretty bad-ass, even if it’s a stage name.

The line between disgraced, steroid-addled baseball player and Captain America is perilously thin. 

Most of the first season is pretty rough and boring (though the pilot is good), but it starts to turn around when the big revelations from Winter Soldier kick in. After that it turns into a pretty darn good show. More workmanlike good than inspired good, but you really grow to care for the characters and the show goes…

You know who actually did something like this? Agents of SHIELD, with its Life Model Decoy/Agents of Hydra plot. Mallory Jansen was frankly astonishing playing a character who got superpowers at the same time she began experiencing human emotions for the first time. 

I think one thing we’ve learned recently is that “Hey, that’s actually a clever idea” doesn’t automatically translate into a compelling movie.

He’s an internet rando with 86 Twitter followers, not some high-profile Hollywood director or cinematographer (to the extent any cinematographers are really “high-profile”). A thousand people don’t need to dunk on someone just because they can, especially when the big sin is mild hyperbole in praise of a TV show we’ve…

I’ve actually been surprised for a while that no one’s adapted the God of War games yet. 

Remember kids: never show earnest enthusiasm for anything.

With GoT going off the air and HBO losing Lena Headey’s work, it’s critical that Thandie Newton ensures the network continues to showcase the best damn eyebrow acting on television.

Aw, this is a damn shame. I always appreciated how Speechless was able to treat JJ sympathetically without falling into the disabled saint tropes - the show took care to show that JJ could be as selfish, petty and downright gross as any other teenage boy.

“And you thought Shlomo Ben Israel wouldn’t come through.”

“No, I said the name and costume were offensive, bordering on actionable.”

“According to our proprietary algorithm, you have decided to murder Kimmy, dismember her body and spread the parts across various New York City boroughs.

I live in Colorado, and I truly do love this place, but it’s pretty amusing how everyone here waxes poetic about how strange and unique Colorado politics are. The state’s really not that complicated - it’s a light-blue state, fairly competitive, with, like all light-blue states, a strong urban-rural divide.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall gets a few things really right, chief among them the casting. Jason Segel’s just a really fun, appealing actor, and while he’s not exactly a Hemsworth brother he’s not a bad-looking dude. It’s not hard to see why a beautiful woman would fall for him. 

I think the biggest issue with the “schlub gets the hot girl” trope isn’t so much the attractiveness differential - we’ve all seen couples in the real world where one person is much more physically attractive than the other. The problem is that most of these movies and shows don’t put in the work to make the…
