Wow. I largely hated most of the stuff Laura put out for these challenges, but this is sublime. This collection is put together very thoughtfully. It looks modern and incredibly on trend. I love all the black/bronze combinations.

If we've learned anything from the 50-odd episodes so far, it's either:

Jeong is a funny man with no sense of control or modulation over what makes him funny. Sometimes with the right material he can make it fantastic, but he has no natural ability for tonal variation. And that's not just in regards to his volume. All of his great Chang speechs from S1 (the "El Tigre" intro, the "I cannot…

Nah, I hate Matt Damon too. It's irrational; just something about him rubs me the wrong way. But he was fantastic in "The Talented Mr. Ripley."

Yeah, Stan and Roger are probably his best two characters. One is the funniest and the other is the most fully realized.

Wrst thing about that character is that the writers of "Modern Family" thought it would be a good addition to their show.

This makes me think I need to watch it again. I remember wishing that the concept escalated a little bit more. As it stands it's kind of episodic.

Just wondering - is there really a cult for this movie? It became a pretty mainstream reference (as acknowledged in the article), but I don't actually know anyone who's gone to see it or the sequel, myself included. Is there a devoted group that genuinely loved this movie? It feels like a psuedo cult film; it's the…

What? Stakes means something is "at stake," (duh) meaning if the conflict within the episode or arc is not addressed, than something will change. Any show without a reset button, any show where there is the real possibility of the status quo being inturrupted, is naturally imbued with stakes because that's what…

On the one, reasonable hand, NO. NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

I was actually thinking about this the other day in how it relates to fiction - namely, the "coming of age" tale or the archetypal hero's journey.

"Warm… and mandatory."

All we have to do is isolate the ones wearing hats because of Coldplay… the rest is easy.

I know plenty of hipsters and even they would not waste 100 bucks to ride a horse with no saddle in the back of a dive like that shitty diner. They'd go there to watch old episodes of the original "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" on VHS and drink crappy beer, but not go horseback riding.

Probably (read: definitely) overthinking here, but my mind went immediately to Pratt, which is in hipster Brooklyn and has illustration as a major. Most art schools do. It's a three or four year degree.

tl;dr: Tuesdays are a really boring night in my household.

Never thought I'd write this much on "Last Man Standing," but… it's a VanDerTrend.

Liked because it came up naturally.
