I saw a news clip a few years back. A teenager was asked who is the vice president of the United States. The kid gave a blank look then said "Osama Bin Laden?" And he wasn't kidding, he wasn't being ironic or messing around. That was literally the only name that he could retrieve rattling around in his empty head.

Sorry, I am just so sick of this frickin' redneck dystopia shit that's in half the entertainment we get these days. Alien genocides and heavy weapons is an indication that the writer knows fuck-all about telling real relatable stories about real relatable people in real relatable situations.

My assumption is she was sitting home watching the utterly horrendous X-Files reboot, then the utterly horrendous Gilmore Girls reboot, and she thought to herself "If they're willing to accept this level of shit maybe they'll accept me too!"

Stone has always been somewhat paranoid about the government but this is not the occasion to subscribe to the maxim 'The enemy of my enemy is my friend'. "Russian is a hostile foreign power. I'm also hostile to the government. Therefore we must be allies!" No, Oliver, no. That's not how the world operates.

These contestants, I'm pretty sure, are largely comprised of wannabe actors desperate for something - anything- to put on their resumes. They're being exploited. I recall one reality show host confided that whenever they referred to a contestant as being a 'waitress' she was usually really a stripper. And think of all

I recall Rodman's excuse last time for visiting Kim was "I drinks a lot."

It should be pointed out that 'Sherlock' was utter and complete garbage hidden under a glossy surface of high production values. Even the show's most die-hard fans had to come to that conclusion by the final episode. I shudder to think what they have in store for us with this. Probably GoT meets Dr Who with a bit of

I'm reminded of the classic SCTV series being told by the network they needed to include 'Canadian content' so they came up with two dumb guys in parkas drinking beers. Fast-forward 40 years, today 'conservative content' is interpreted as a dumb guy in a plaid shirt with a gun collection. Give him a John Deere cap and

CMT? Oh, I had to look it up. the country music channel.

You purposefully collect a bunch of people with impaired judgment skills together, have them run around half-dressed, and ply everyone with liquor. What could possibly go wrong? Their next reality show series: "Let's pound on this bomb with a hammer!"

Let's recall Megyn is Roger Ailes'… um… protégé (wink.nudge). So apparently she like's 'em fat and soulless.

'My Dad Wrote A Porno' pretty much saved my sanity around the end of last year, if you know what I mean. For awhile listening to the news was just out of the question.

Circa 1940 there was *zero* plastics in the environment. Now there's molecular plastics in the soil, in the water, in the fish, in the air, in our fatty tissues. Everywhere-everywhere-everywhere. Its subtly changing people. Plus every birth control pill or hormone treatment that gets taken every day mostly wind up

Is anyone else having trouble posting here? I just get the wheel spinning on my PC and had to come here on my device. Really annoying.

What was the name of that space opera movie where it was claimed 'love' can overcome physics? Anne Hathaway said it. Love apparently has all the properties of duct tape.

I did not see that Jane the Virgin move coming. And I also did not see CxGF moving back to wholesome 8pm again!

'Las Vegas' actually looks pretty funny. I'm not sure about full-season kind'a funny but hey, 'Last Man on Earth' was only funny for the first four episodes and look how long it lasted.

'Supergirl' comes to mind. Which brings up the point I was going to make. Much of CBS Studios' female-lead output winds up on the CW. Aline Brosh McKenna has been recently put under contract to develop new programming for them. I think she has two new shows in the planning stage. How many of will be women-fronted and

So its like "What if Forrest Gump was smart… and an asshole… from an early age".

Odd that Fallon would have inserted the word 'after' into that sentence. What the fuck was he supposed to have said after the fact? Maybe DURING the interview he should have asked "Lets discuss you openly calling for the assassination of supreme court justices."
