Plenty of streaming drama series have a solid opening theme, but they always give you the option to “skip intro” after the first episode.

Can’t say I’m surprised.  This is a show I knew existed, but was never interested in watching.  And I used to watch the original.

I honestly had to look it up just find a name I recognized. And I, for one, think that this whole thing could wrap up to a peaceful close if DJ Khaled would finally condemn Hamas.

Boy, was that a labored false equivalence.

They’re not just indiscriminately killing aid workers, they are deliberately targeting them. 

Their “Jewishness” is important because Glazer’s detractors have questioned his own “Jewishness”.

Dying Gazans Criticized for Not Using Last Words to Condemn Hamas

Because 1) If Teti or O’Neal or whoever had asked for readers to do that back during the site’s glory days to avoid being bought out by Univision in the first place, I would have gladly said yes, but not for this husk and disemboweled v…

By the way, the AV Club’s new overlords at Paste had some nice things to say about the AV Club’s comment section.
