Nope, nothing means vagina.

Yeah, honey/beeswax/pollen are bug-related stuff. So is shellac, and that can be found in food.

Oof, I disagree about FitzGerald. I did not think much of the character at all, but I don't know if it was the acting or the writing. I haven't seen her in anything else, so I don't have anything to compare it against. Just everything that came out of her mouth sounded like a pretentious AV Club commenter had spent an

One of the things that tickles me about Deadwood is how many of the actors' actual names would fit perfectly within the show: Molly Parker, Jim Beaver, Earl Brown, Kim Dickens, Dayton Callie, Anna Gunn, Garrett Dillahunt, Titus Welliver, Powers Boothe…

This was a really good interview; you should actually read it.

This is a really interesting point to discuss, and one I've wondered about too, vaguely, during my third or fourth run-throughs of the show.

Must be the WW2/Nazi sympathizing stuff. I imagine that might entail some "parental guidance," or at least a bit of context depending on the age of the kid. (Edit: also probably the death stuff.)

Billy was never going to push back. IT WAS HE who initiated the objectifying talk about Zucker. IT WAS HE who said "Your girl is hot as shit." No excuses, none whatsoever, for the Bushy.

"Stand Up and Shout" from Holy Diver by Dio is my go-to pre-job interview pump-up song. Thankfully, I haven't had to use it that way in a while.

I tear up every time I look at my Remains of the Day lunchbox.

I really liked Family Tree. It's not amazing, nor does it rank among Guest's best, but I thought it was good to great at times. Helps to have a healthy crush on Chris O'Dowd, I guess, but Nina Conti as his sister and Michael McKean as his father stole the show. But I'm also a sucker for ventriloquism comedy. Maybe I'm

Spike Jones

I was at this show!!!! It was fucking amazing.

I still haven't seen Jiro, but I've seen Chef's Table, and they must be very similar (same director, apparently). Everything about this was spot on. The only thing that bummed me out was the relative lack of Hader, but the rest of it was so good, I didn't mind. I hope we get a Hader-centric episode soon. The man is

I also could have sworn I saw Jason Segel and David Hyde Pierce? I thought I was crazy but now that you brought this up I'm not so sure.

Joke's on them, I guess, since I most often see that phrase used in reference to their presidential nominee.

Can we please agree to retire the phrase "dumpster fire"? Except when referring to a literal conflagration in a garbage receptacle?

To die for. Positively murderous.

It's really good in gravy! (pronounced like "grave-ay")

When Harry Met Sally is so good, even calling it the best romantic comedy ever feels like faint praise. And even though it was made almost 30 years ago, it doesn't feel dated, partially thanks, I think, to the time jumps. Plus, Bruno Kirby and Carrie Fisher, I mean come on.
