Absolutely right! I’m usually annoyed with the audience on a weekly basis anyway (why do they always scream for Kate McKinnon? They KNOW she’s there!) but this one was anger-inducing for me. It made me appreciate even more how blissfully silent those quarantine episodes were.

It is true. That’s not even up for debate.

Yes it’s very complex how Israel brutally occupies the Palestinian territories and refuses to give them any vaccines which the PA and Hamas absolutely do not have the money or power or sovereignity to do themselves. It’s so complex being an oppressor. JFC do you need to go to your safe space when someone makes the…

Pete Davidson gets a lifetime pass in my book for his and John Mulaney’s review of The Mule:

They’re starting to have fun again.

I know SNL moves on from former ‘friends of the show’ all the time (just look at Rudy...), but after the years that they were basically the Timberlake Clubhouse, it was still a bit jarring when they let through that expert dig at him from Chloe’s Britney.

I’m sorry but holy balls, that musical guest... That absolute non-existant stage presence in the first clip aside, that was just mediocrity personified... I mean, sure, I’ve heard of the man and watched a few videos and honestly, if it came on the radio the three times a year I might tune in to a top40 station, I’d…

She really CAN play every kind of role, even if they were all a lie on this show, she played them so well. Pretty amazing. Is she gonna be this generation’s Tom Hanks? Came from more of a slapstick comedy beginning, sinking her teeth into more “serious” roles, will eventually get a pile of awards...

I love when they drop 2 or 3 episodes to kick it off, so I completely agree. It’s just better once it goes to weekly thereafter.

It’s a good thing mobile Kinja is a piece of shit that accidentally sent me to another article instead of replying to your original comment, which updated on the refresh. Since you offered a mea culpa, I won’t pile on, BUT IM WATCHING YOU

You’d have to think stretching episodes over 2 or 3 months would also keep subscribers who might be on the fence watching for... 2 or 3 months.

This show proves the Netflix model is terrible. Other streaming services tried it and many have moved away from it thankfully, after they realized that all it does is kill the conversation, hype, and buzz for a TV series.

I’m so interested in someone thinking that he was inscrutable on SC when I feel like he was ridiculously expressive, sometimes not so well (some of the broad comedy) but also pretty good (he’s a solid dramatic actor.) 

I think he has a few gears, but they are all Dan Levy to varying degrees and best served when Dan Levy is writing. I wonder if he restrained himself from being the writer, wanting instead to just be the performer and enjoy himself. He was fine. He’s funny. But when doing his own material, that’s when he’s brilliant.

Qanon is indeed a dangerous cult, and just like the Nazis they cloak themselves in the drapery of Christianity. In this case it’s more like the fever-swamp, tongue-speaking, demons-walk-among-us Christianity. As such, all of their wacky bullshit theories and predictions actually play out as tests of faith - you have…

I feel like while those people are annoying, they’re not nearly as big a threat as genuinely awful people in power using “cancel culture” as a bogeyman to deflect from their own hateful words and deeds.

The really unfortunate thing is that when Qanon people open their mouth they sound so utterly deranged that it’s difficult for most normal people to take them seriously as a threat without a lot of additional context, something our media is notoriously bad at providing.

So this is what made Cowboy Curtis snap and realize he was in the Matrix. 

Pee Wee’s Big, Loud, “HEARD ANY GOOD JOKES LATELY!?” at the MTV Movie awards should be lesson one in how a white man gets scandaled and comes back with humility and humor rather than becoming a humorless aggrieved prick.
