It's really not David O. Russell's fault, but the list of people who can still, in good conscience, heart Huckabees is dwindling at an alarming rate.

Remember the ending of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? Trump must feel, for the past four months or so, like he just jumped out into that freeze frame. Only no fucking bullets have hit him yet. But they have to. There are so goddamned many. So he's just hanging there, a fat, charisma-free addition to that classic

Goddamnit, I got this far without having to read John Popper's Wikipedia page. I thought I was home free.

"When the Levee Breaks" is good, chimed in the inevitable 40-year-old Zeppelin defender.

Where it goes from here: On Monday morning, Pickle shows up on Fox and Friends, looking like a young Ronnie Howard in his overalls and talking the way 70+-year-old southerners and heartlanders wish kids still talked. Swimming holes are mentioned, as is, possibly, froggin'. He delivers some choice, folksy, "kids say

Least believable part: "You seem nice." Not even Trump's strongest supporters think he seems nice. The only reason to like him is because he's a big loud asshole bully. Poor Pickle's home life must look like something out of a Rob Zombie movie if he thinks this shitbag "seems nice."

Holy shit, can you imagine the nightmare of Pickle's Trump-themed birthday party? I'm sure it was a multicultural gathering that looked like America.

This was all about Beck Bennett. I hope they continue to embrace the weird — this cast is just made for it, especially Bennett, Mooney, and McKinnon, but also some of the new people. Mikey Day is winning me over.

Is that an Alan Thicke nod? If so, then bless you.

My pants are packed with joyous farce, but I chalk that up to lentils and a positive attitude.

Hopefully this will be the beginning of a lasting peace between Schumer and the people of Tampa…a kind of TamPax, if you will…

You know, part of me is starting to doubt whether this fellow would make a very good President at all.

Well. this is certainly something tailor-made for the current state of internet race, gender, sexuality, and misogyny discussion. Bound to be just spiffing.

Yeah, the ambiguity is potentially maddening, but thematically appropriate in that so much of the show is about how little the actual fact of guilt often matters. I was wrestling with the question of why Chandra ends up being punished for the kiss and not the drugs, and realized that almost every punishment in the

I was so disappointed that he went out so quick. I thought The Knick earned him a little more love.

"Normally to catch these luminaries back to back to back, you would have to completely misuse your cable package." That line sent me back to check the byline, and I felt thrilled and vindicated to see it was O'Neal.

Wait a minute — an intelligent discussion in which thoughtful people disagree but give due consideration and respect to each others' perspectives? Does this thread count as internet?

I think he's reinvented himself as a latter-day Bob Seger for people who find Bob Seger too high-brow and avant-garde.

On a lighter note, I once had a student named Joe Mangina. I stared at the roll on the first day for a solid minute before going wit the Italian pronunciation.

Wow. I thought this was numbingly stupid even before I found out this guy hadn't even seen the film. He's sure as hell getting a lot of attention, though, isn't he?
