"Seinfeld but with nice people" is my new favorite descriptor for this show. I don't even care how accurate it is. I like it.

First base!
Lou?
I had to pause the episode to wipe my tears after "gentle loverrrrrrrrr!" Lamorne Morris should win a Pulitzer. (I was gonna say Emmy, but he deserves better.)
Tom Hardy won me over with his 2005 kitten rescue, as told by the man himself to MySpace. http://aclutteredmind.tumbl…
He better pray he don't find it.
The fact that two people made this joke at the same time is why I come to the AV Club. Jolly well done, keep at it.
Here's my pitch: this song features a shout-out to the local grocery store where I go to buy bread!
You scared me with that Robert Osborne mention, and I had to look up his age. 84! Damn. I haven't watched TCM in years—cord-cutting and whatnot—but it's so easy & nostalgically comforting to call up his voice in my mind. (Also his routine—walk towards camera, stop, hand gestures!) I was so excited when he popped up on …
I wouldn't call either Amanda Seyfried or Rachel McAdams' careers sad. And Lacey Chaubert having found a niche that gives her steady work seems like a relatively positive outcome. And…I don't know what to say about Lindsay Lohan. But you seem to have unreasonably high standards for success here!
Ugh, I'm with you on not finding the extremely common lovable asshole archetype appealing. I always feel like I'm watching Casablanca wrong because I can't imagine why any woman would go for douchey Humphrey Bogart over a caring, dashing leader of La Resistance.
It is, but it's definitely not a landlocked one.
???? You know that the Boxers were largely young uneducated peasant farmers, right? And that it wasn't so much an organized rebellion as a general confused uprising? And…honestly, I have no idea where you got any of this.
Well, China might want to argue that the US is four years out in our reckoning of WWII, given that they were invaded by Japan back in 1937. I think it's reasonable for nations to commemorate the years they were involved in a given war on a memorial, though obviously textbooks should go into more detail.
Also known as the "let me remind you about the vast majority of minutes my son spent not raping women" defense.
Hell, you could argue that Canada STILL hasn't gained full independence, given that the Queen is still officially its monarch, appears on all the money, ceremonially appoints the Prime Minister…
Let me put it in AV Clubese for you: points = upvotes.
No, I'm in the states. We have, like, McDonald's. And Wendy's. We had a Krispy Kreme for like a year before the recession.
I live in a place that has none of those, nor any Waffle Houses. I'm starting to panic.
I immediately thought of Brooklyn too. That teal sweater she wears on the beach? Divine.
