And Downey was the token conservative right? So ya, seems to support the idea that he thought the show was too conservative.

I'm assuming he was treated like the baby and he was coddled. Which may explain Chuck's almost resentment of Jimmy getting close to his level. I don't know just spitballing.

Throw in people who complain when people call them sexist.

Or a podcast network?

She's a woman, she's prone to that sort of erratic behavior. Sigh.

But what exactly are they saying? It seemed like a conservative attack on the system more than anything.

When Tina Fey is held up as a bastion of progressivism, is it not fair to point out when that perception does not line up with reality? People throw he term around without really understanding what it means, bringing a bit more understanding to the term isn't a bad thing.

But he's not a member of that minority. Asians aren't a monolithic entity.

Substitute sad for racist.

Or didn't need to be told at all. It's a hacky stupid joke that Seinfeld made 20 years ago.

Well it's very true. For all the talk about her being a progressive, her humor can be quite regressive and the politics equally conservative.

It's fine, but it oddly dates the series. For a show that's getting some comedic mileage out of all the things that have changed while Kimmy was imprisoned, you'd think they'd want a theme that wasn't tied to a fad that was popular years ago to underscore how much time has changed.

Could have been that once Krakowski came in board they wanted Jacqueline to be a full time character but didn't want to rewrite the pilot.

Cryer had bad enough judgement to be friends with the guy, he's not exactly a virtue of good judgement.

So everybody associated with that show are horrible human beings then? Good to know.

Except that the world they dropped us into was uninteresting and completely divorce from the comic. The move didn't exactly instill any faith on my part that the creators could handle more movies in that universe.

What if that foreign film does the exact same thing infinitely better? Dredd was very sterile in comparison.

You're not serious are you?

I don't see why people like Dredd if there's something called the Raid, a movie with an identical premise but executed it better in every single way.

Lisa was easy to tolerate, like ever?
