If Rogue One was dour I'll certainly take dour over this Doctor Who Christmas special, which was overly silly and ridiculous even by Doctor Who standards.

Yeah, he was annoying at times on his original season but I didn't think he was, like, a supervillain or anything.

They do look alike! And act alike! And they both sure are great too.

It was such a cute moment when she was congratulating him as a good improv partner. "And you were all like I'm a dark web man!" hahahaha

This is a dumb comment. They obviously understand the mechanics of sex, and demonstrated them. The point was that, as happens in couples that have sub-optimal sex lives, due to either depression or meds or stress or some weird hang up or lack of compatibility this is the only way he can get sufficiently aroused to…

He was trying to get hard so he could fuck her, but it took him a comically long time to get hard and a comically short time to come. Yes, the point was that their sex life was shitty.

The point was she's actually a good actress and was fucking with him to show him how his fuckery felt to other people. My guess is the ophthalmologist was probably the real story bud Elliot's probably so self-absorbed he never really listened when she talked about her dad so he doesn't absolutely know for sure.

I just finished this on December 23rd, 2016 and having just watched the finale I had the same thought. Initially I thought it would be best as a one season/one-off oddity, and I thought that's the direction the show was going, but then why did they end things with what in essence was a huge cliffhanger. Is Keith dead?…

“Cheap Thrills” was actually good, even the Sean Paul version.

I kind of know what you mean. It is a very broad impression. However, with Trump, I think he's someone who's actually very difficult to do an impression of because he himself is such an outlandish caricature that he's almost impossible to parody. I think Baldwin's approach is probably the best way to do it. Keep it…

His body looked strange, like people look when they've lost a lot of weight due to illness or because of lap band surgery. He was still fat in the middle but his limbs were super thin. I think that's why people think he looked strange.

Yeah the sketch walked a thin line and I think ultimately failed. The joke was supposed to be how absurd it was to even make a robot that's essentially an office helper and give it a sexual orientation that it talks about a lot. But ultimately, it's just another SNL sketch which takes a situation and throws gayness at…

I disagree. He goes for a positive vibe obviously, especially compared to most contemporary rappers, but if you actually listen to what he's rapping and singing about it's far from clean or G rated. The first song he did has a prominent line about being addicted to "xans" (xanax) for example.

That was great! But if I remember I think most people didn't like it.

I disagree with much of your assessment of the episode as a whole but your description of "Through Donald's Eyes" is perfect, an all-time great sketch.

I like those acts as well but I'd agree mostly with Dennis's underwhelmed impression. Shawn Mendes, whoever the hell was on this week. There's been a lot of underwhelming young white pop.

Right but I think weekly recapping requires a different approach than reviewing a television series as a whole for example, as used to actually be done in the old days. Anyone who's making time to watch a show, particularly an HBO hour-long drama (meaning it's a full hour not 44 minutes) obviously is invested in the…

No, it wasn't meant to be ambiguous. She meant because he had empathy for the hosts and wasn't a ruthless amoral ultra-hedonistic asshole like every other human she'd encountered in her existence.

But this isn't conceived of in any way as a remake or even reboot. It has roughly the same relationship to the 1973 movie that the Sci-Fi Channel Battlestar Galactica had to the late 70s TV series. It just took the raw materials and made something totally different with them.

Yeah I really hope they get a different recapper than Wack Handlin' for Season Two. There is precedent. In the ancient times they finally took Rabin off of 30 Rock when his insane hatred of the latter seasons became too much to bear. Aside from the fact that Wack Handlin's writing is terrible, he doesn't like the…
