No, and I guess this is a pretty good answer to my "why?" I didn't realize that (looking at past reviews also) the overwhelming majority of these are, in fact, wide releases.

**sighs** I know.
So AV Club has been covering this new wave of evangelical cinema pretty reliably throughout the past few years, and my question is why?
Well lucky for them I'm still too lazy to cook it at home.
I want to know how much of Nancy Grace's annual income comes from playing an incorrect version of herself in crime dramas.
I could vibe on that theory. I guess I'm still having trouble guaging how many peripheral plots and conflicts will develop in Rikers as opposed to that being a pit stop on the road to the mystery's resolution.
Naz in this episode (and throughout) has reminded me a lot of Damien Echols from the Paradise Lost docs in that he keeps seeming to refuse these offered lifelines and keeps subjecting himself to further persecution based on this naive assumption that the adults of the criminal justice system are responsible…
Yeah, I feel like the "ten days" line from the shelter worker was the chekov's gun of dialog so far on account of how obvious it seemed.
Not sure if this will get noticed three weeks after air, but is there a conceivable world that Naz isn't substantially more covered in blood after a crime of that brutality?
I agree that the Sheriff Root scene with the seraphim seemed like an action that felt a little underdeveloped in the moment, but did anyone else sort of feel like he was he was living out a fantasy involving his wife (also a narrative point completely underdeveloped at this point)?
I think there's a lot to what they allude to toward the end of the article—that they are collectively using the conservatorship to avoid her testifying in large, legitimate lawsuits against her.
FWIW, that joke popped up in their Times profile a couple weeks back. It's a helluva line, but I was a little bummed to hear it on the podcast and recognize it as an on-demand bit.
The WOW episode is the definition of topical. It's been their bread and butter for seasons.
I know Cartman can be an exception to the rule, but I prefer South Park when the adult population goes crazy in spite of the kids and not because of them. Still not sure how I feel about this episode…
Question: Do most of you go to comedy sets hoping to hear bits you're already familiar with? Depending on the performer and proximity to their latest recording, sure, there may be some overlap. But comedy seems to be the one medium that I really hope to only hear new material. Why shout out a request for something to…
Do the recaps run through an editor before they get put up? I can totally get a single writer not super privy to the reference. But if it even ran through two people at the AV Club, I would expect at least one to recognize that this lede is broken.
I've wondered if Phipps and co. had to fight at all for the comments section on The Dissolve.
So that must mean being told that I'm rich will make me rich!
Something that has kind of stuck out to me this season at times is how the show's fate during its best seasons seemed to keep the quality from just washing over you in the same way it normally can during a more successful show's heyday. In hindsight, prospects of cancellation for "Parks" always made each wonderful…
I think you can present those same apprehensions to any artist's debut success. I'm kind of wondering why Channel Orange warrants more cautious praise than something like say Arcade Fire's Funeral.
