I'm female and I loathe this film. Too many storylines and too little time to develop any of them in any meaningful way. Superficial claptrap. I'm a huge Richard Curtis fan, so it pains to me to be so negative towards one of his films but as the affection for this film seems to grow with every year, so too does my

He's one of the few celebrities I can't remember hearing a single negative thing about (well, since last night I learned he started dating some chick when she was 16 and he was thirty-two but other than that). He seems to have lived a rather low-key, non-dramatic, decidedly non-Lohan-esque life. That seems to be the

Fifty bucks says Walker gets the cover.

It's sad that two people died. However, if the cause of this was indeed excessive speed (which is reckless driving), then I am thankful only two people died. This isn't like someone's brakes cutting out, something beyond their control, that could have injured others; this was someone choosing to operate their car in

Yes, a buddy-cop film. RIP Gregory Hines.

Probably not WNTW. Their makeovers generally fell into distinct categories:

Excellent summation.

"Mystery Diners" and "Restaurant Stakeout" (also known as "Restaurant Fakeout") on Food Network are notoriously fake. As in, the only thing real about any of it is that there is a restaurant, but nearly everyone depicted is an actor. In the room where the cameras are being monitored, there's always head shots of the

Ain't that the truth. My last apartment was a first-floor unit in a garden-style complex. The lock on the sliding door to the patio didn't work. I brought it to the attention of the property manager who advised me to "jiggle" it a certain way. I'm like, "What the hell, why isn't the knee-jerk response to FIX IT?"

I think turning the show into a forum for bashing Cybill Shepherd and humiliating Maddie Hayes took away from whatever charm it had going for it in the beginning. And while clever, I thought the "Taming of the Shew" episode was just a highbrow cover for the misogyny of Glenn Gordon Caron and Bruce Willis towards

I tried to re-watch that recently and oof… it didn't age well.

"House of Cards," "To Play the King" and "The Final Cut" are all also available on YouTube.

In the past, I've googled "avclub [show name] [episode name]" to get directly to the recap I'm looking for, but today when I did that for "Girls," I ended up on a mixed "Gilmore Girls/Girls" page here.

At long last, a redesign that surpasses the shit-stain of awfulness that is Windows 8.

Really wish they'd go back to a manageable pool of chefs. I don't need each season to last four + months. They have eleven left now after how many episodes? The first season did just fine with twelve total contestants.

There may have been something in the Yoplait, given how many batshit crazy designers they had this season.

Top Chef often reads more like an hour-long advertisement than a piece of television—more than even Project Runway, which stays with the same advertisers throughout the years.

Wasn't that answered when they showed the actual eye-level outlets, replete with hideous wires hanging everywhere?

Yes!  I thought he was totally just reprising Dogberry.

I love me some LD but this was not one for the permanent collection.  I laughed maybe four or five times.
