"Cartoonishly evil" is a pretty good summation of why Ramsay and the Boltons never really worked as villains like the Lannisters did, at least up to this point in the books. For example, the show just recently skipped over one of Roose's most notorious/excessive lines, "Don't make me regret the day I raped your mother"

i mean, in the GRRM version, ramsay's wife gets fucked by a dog, and he makes theon eat her out. it's a bit character though so everything's A-OK!

You don't really know why
But you want to justify
Murdering a woman execution-style in her Benedict Canyon house

Mac likes Charlie (his childhood best friend) more than Frank, and I think that's represented in how many storylines they share. There's a lot of classic Mac/Charlie pairings, but other than the sweatshop episode in season 3 I can't think of a single Mac/Frank storyline.

amerie - one thing

from seasons 1-3, it was always root against mac & frank & dennis, root for dee and charlie. season 4 the paradigm stays the same except for frank, who becomes neutral as his character shifts from actually manipulative rich old man (i'm thinking specifically of the episode where he makes charlie's mom his 'bangmaid')

andrew luck is biggest nerd of nfl history, so even if the colts beat my patriots then i would still feel privileged to witness a nerd-on-nerd superbowl

girls would be a straight comedy if it cut out the increasingly contrived adam and hannah romance. dunham needs to realize that it's not ever going to be the " heartbreaking romance of a generation" and go back to it being the legitimately funny, somewhat unique dynamic it was in season 1 (i have hope that s4 will

the obvious peak of this series is the one where they read martin starr's spec script (which may be the series finale, i don't really remember)

this did surprise me because i confused andy dick for andy daly. now that i know the truth, this does not surprise me. good day, folks

malcolm in the middle, which was about as accurate representation of my life at that time as there could be

the internet, and, you know, people who aren't scumbags and are capable of being critical of the world around them

controversial(?) opinion alert: gina gershon was better than matthew mcconaughey in that movie

are you rosario dawson's bra?

i filmed these scenes a long time ago
a real long time ago
i filmed these scenes in 2012

oh, fargo also, but has a second season of that even been confirmed yet?

at this point, they need it to keep their brand as a "prestige" network afloat. they can't just rest on The Americans/Louie forever, and the response to tyrant and the strain have both been pretty uniformly negative (maybe less so to the latter but it's genre fiction so it's taken less seriously, unfortunately)

need for speed was alright tho! at least it was nice to see honest-to-god practical effects in a big budget action film, especially a car chase movie where part of the spectacle comes from the real-life risk involved

i'm a bit younger than all y'all, so my high school experience was a pretty close reflection of the school in 21 jump street, ie. the popular kids also cared a lot about academics and their futures, so our class president also was someone who, if not deserved it, at least had a good chance of caring about the position

Obama?
