Why the hell weren't the boys in dresses?! The girls looked adorable in their tuxes, but I was totally expecting them to go full defiance and I was a bit bummed. And who was that guy, anyway? Why wasn't he signing? Was that another reminder that Carlton's been taken over by hearing students? I loved the entire prom

I was actually happy when Regina called her out on her attraction to bad boys

…oh. So I did read it right, then. Well, that's going to end really awkwardly for Libby, isn't it.

I totally misread that scene at first — I thought he was actually her older brother or some other family member, but Libby just weirdly assumed he was her boyfriend (because…young black girls are hypersexual, she thinks? Sort of fits into the whole "should we look at their data separately" thing). Then when Coral

Oh, bless you for using that picture. "I'LL MAKE YOUR ASS SENSE." Now I think about it, I'd rather have a spinoff with Britta and Shirley as wacky roommates or something.

what makes it all unbearable is to face that Regina is the one who took Angelo away from her in the first place.

Seriously! She should be onto yacht-stealing by now, eh? Eh??

She also sometimes signs in scene with just Regina — is that meant to be like a passive-aggressive thing? I can't really tell.

I honestly laughed out loud at "why is everyone such a drag?!" and "Miss Summers can SUCK IT," because that's what passes for wild teen behavior on ABC Family. I am 1000% over Juvenile Daphliquent, and dismissing Travis' protests that he had a girlfriend was a new low, but I can't pretend I didn't sort of enjoy her

I read that "good lord" in Sheldon Cooper's voice, just so you know.

!!!! I love him so much that I actually paused Beyoncé to read this with my full attention, which is the biggest compliment I think I could ever give anyone. I thought he was wonderful in Calvary; it's one of those performance that looks totally effortless, but when you think about it and then read stuff like this you

If I may quote Retta's Twitter, aka the only Twitter that matters: "'These hoes ain't loyal.' Um, probably because you call them hoes."

I'm sorry, is Daphne not still dating Campbell?! We haven't seen him in a while now, but that's what I thought…or did they break up because of that thing where she got the job over him? See, this is why the endless-string-of-love-interests thing is annoying as hell. I certainly get why she'd be all the more angry

I thought it was more that he was her coach (at least in the past) and it would've been inappropriate because of his authority position rather than just an age thing. But the math does seem off.

I honestly chuckled every single time he muttered "Gust Avrakotos." That should've been the whole movie.

WOW. A lot to unravel here. Jerky behavior due to male machismo/insecurity [it's basically the same issue] is the thing for which I have the least patience in the whole wide world, and this was such a great deconstruction of it in so many ways. Personally I find Bill sympathetic and always have, though he of course

That was beyond chilling. If he doesn't submit this as his Emmy episode then he is just one crazy Welshman.

I still can't really believe this is actually happening in real life. And I am beyond horrified to see my beloved Danny Elfman's name there. I blame Tim Burton, somehow.

Honestly the book/show in general is sort of a paradox to me as far as the tone goes. IMO the show is way more wry and satirical about Piper's character and the clueless things she says and does (i.e., her explaining Robert Frost while the other girls just glare); the book is sort of entirely unironic. The way I

I thought that "I have a girl in my room" selfie was going an entirely different way, though, and I am grateful that it didn't.
