And occasionally shaking his head and muttering "Very sad." The first time everyone pauses, thinking he's going to contribute to the discussion, but when they realize he's referring to Rosie O'Donnell they ignore him and continue grownup talk.

One of the more hilarious defenses of that tweet going around is "He's just being a good dad!" Trump's standing up to the company bullying his daughter, not literally tweeting evidence to be used against him in future conflicts of interest lawsuits.

Chuck Schumer pointed out that no one spoke up when Ted Cruz called him a liar.

Is he being demoted, though? My understanding is that his position as House Communications Director was always intended to be temporary.

Haven't seen too many people say that about Game of Thrones, but I agree completely. The first season genuinely felt like something new and fresh, and was compelling from beginning to end. Then it slowly devolved into a misanthropic, overly-scattered mess with occasional spots of brilliance. I still miss Ned Stark.

It's not worth seeking out, but I was definitely impressed by the American pilot at the time. Then it became gradually clear that show's idea of exploring grief consisted primarily of repeated scenes of characters staring glumly out windows, and it started throwing red herrings at the audience like it knew it was…

I've always thought Arrow took a more thoughtful approach to super heroics than it's often given credit for. Also, despite how goofy it can sometimes be, I think the characters are more well-rounded and the relationships much better developed than they ever were Daredevil, which to my eyes only had one compelling…

In my opinion, it was the writing that became the show's biggest weak spot, but I agree with you that the direction was stronger in those first two episodes. The fight choreography in particular took a nosedive. Not sure if they blew their budget on the hallway scene or what, but for whatever reason the choreography…

Daredevil had an excellent pilot and really solid second episode, then became dull as dirt after Drew Goddard left.

The first episode of this show was terrible. I remember because it's the only one I watched.

Yes, that was me, actually! I forget how it came up last time, but I think I described it almost exactly the way I did here. Written and directed by Jon Kasdan, son of Lawrence.

She's been in two movies that I like a lot. The First Time is sort of a teen Before Sunrise, and is a pretty charming little romance flick. The second is Ask Me Anything, which is a dark drama about a young girl trying to find herself and the various men who take advantage of her uncertainty. Ask Me Anything is…

Ha, I had to retake gym, as well! Luckily, I did not have a vindictive gym teacher, and the only thing we had to do was walk lazily around the track for an hour or so. If regular gym had been like that, I wouldn't have skipped nearly as often.

I thought season 2 was nearly as strong as season 1. The only thing that occasionally caught me up was that the timeline seemed to grow a bit murky with all the flashbacks. Aside from that, I thought the characters and the writing were just as sharp and charming as ever.

Yeah, it could be something as simple as people have it on for background noise and occasionally look up at the attractive women. To be honest I feel a little guilty ripping on it, just because I've seen maybe seven minutes total. Big Bang Theory, on the other hand, I don't mind shitting on. Again, only seen a…

There's been some attempt to retire "actress" and make "actor" gender-neutral, from what I understand.

Racist bullshit is making a comeback right now. The bigger question for me is, who still finds that funny? The jokes seem to give up before they hit the punchlines.

I actually like "You're the Worst" a lot, but the amount of times I've seen adjectives like "wrenching" or "devastating" used to describe events that are "kind of sad" makes me think I'm watching a different show than everyone else. "Lovesick" (formally "Scrotal Recall") is a better, more honest show, IMO, that…

There's nothing wrong with the filibuster, in theory. Sometimes it's the only thing enabling the minority party to actually get a say in lawmaking. When it's abused, however, like it was against Obama like seventy fucking times, then yeah, it kind of defeats its own purpose.

Two and a half if you count summer school.
