I haven't seen this but it sounds a helluvalot like Joe the King. Which was directed by Frank Whaley, best known for playing Brett in Pulp Fiction.

At first, I found the bad behaviour in this episode a little jarring. Like when the mother makes that comment about Adam being odd. etc. That line seemed extreme and not consistent with the caring loving mother she seemed to personify up to this point.

I miss Found Footage! That was AVClub's golden era.

I was waiting for Hannah to punch her cousin in the face when she snickered at the insults made about her father's appearance. But it wouldn't have been characteristic of Hannah to be offended by something like that. Loyalty to the father is only something that people in movies exhibit. Remember, this is the same girl…

I couldn't get into that movie. The therapy relationship between Hirsch and Hutton was uncomfortable for me. I don't remember specifics except the indoor smoking during sessions. I got the feeling that Hirsch was going to pull a 'Mr. Antolini' at any moment. Which would have been more interesting than the movie's…

The writing is so nuanced. I love how that line emphasizes her lack of medical knowledge - and therefore her dissimilarity with her cousin.

Is the "death of Grandma Flo" just a coded reference to the start of Mrs. Horwath's menopausal transition?

Lupita Nyong'o wins the Oscar.

Boosh?

When is Sarah Silverman going to make a sassy old granny comeback like Betty White?

I love this movie.

The was actually pretty funny. I laughed at John Madden.

That's why the Louis episode was so fantastic. I love how it oscillated between total greatness (the monologue and Lincoln) and joyous stupidity (the make-out). Some sketches combined both qualities (the horn blower guy). It felt like any moment it could all come crashing down.

Maybe by 'too safe' he was just referring to chances of causing pregnancy.

This scene from from True Detective is spectacular for its lack of obvious dummies.

Speaking of needing more oven time [ insert poo joke].
