Thumbs up for a fuckin' Cardenio joke, nice.

Me too, and maybe me too but who am I kidding I'll probably just google Lizzie Caplan's nude scenes and call it a day.

I wish she'd stop wearing those lumberjack costumes.

Are those rides still free?

Holy shit, you weren't kidding. Was that, like, her and Steven Colbert just sitting around like "What kind of crazy shit do you think we can talk ourselves into just because we're famous"?

Ladyballs is a great idea for a show.

Also not trying to be confrontational! (I'm just drawn that way!) I was super bummed; Dastardess and I were both sortof assuming that was

@avclub-96f15daceb6669363fbf7f762ed57703:disqus ugh, dude, don't start with the comedies. Much Ado actually is cool, but Comedy of Errors is sortof a pain in the ass.

What's weird is that everyone's instinctive response to "Who would you want protecting your town as law enforcement?" is to pick someone who'd be good at it. What for? I don't know what y'all's experience with cops is, but personally, who I want is someone who's pleasant but completely ineffective. Inspector Gadget

Nice job there!

Yeah, but that might be sortof an afterthought. In Henry V right before the big battle he goes and hangs out with some of the soldiers, which he can convincingly do thanks to his rowdy youth, but it's at least very dubious whether that was actually a plan all along.

I'm with Hiddleston on this one.

Oh my god, fucking second-tier nobles, wtf. I spent a whole summer reading along with Peter Saccio's Shakespeare's English Kings and trying to keep all that shit straight, and I totally failed and decided not to worry about that anymore.

BTW, I don't know why you'd want to read a whole book about why Shakespeare actually did write Shakespeare - sortof like choosing to read Jerry Coyne's Why Evolution is True, which is a very entertaining book but DUH. I really liked Will in the World for a Shakespeare book. Although it has mad spoilers for a lot of

@avclub-7e72b5fe1ad8fd5b388a5260ba7c07fe:disqus Haaaaaaa, wow, I didn't realize how hilarious it would be to imagine someone defending John Fletcher.

Liked for "literally in a theater now."

Um…Macbeth. Short and snappy.

Good idea.

Yaaaay!
