Yeah, he really should have bolted long ago. I get that Daya buys into the fantasy because that keeps her going in prison, but Bennett gets to go home at night. You'd think at some point just the idea of being with a woman who can go on dates and be intimate and have a conversation longer than like 30 seconds would…

It was such a heartbreaking detail how she kept sinking her fake-drug profits into clothes rather than saving (did they mention she originally wanted to buy a car?). To me, that showed that even though she THINKS she's destined for greatness, there's a definite ceiling and a small-time way of thinking to her…

Kind of hoping/fearing that it's going to turn into a "Chekov's broken glass" situation later in the season.

My opinion on Suzanne has definitely been backsliding since the whole Vee storyline. Sure, there's more to her than most people see, but my memories of that vulnerability are fading and I'm rapidly losing sympathy the more the show tips her back into "unstable psycho" territory.

After watching this episode, I wonder now if the test was used like it was on the show—to make applicants think there's a system when there really isn't. In other words, these employers could discriminate against anybody they want, and if anybody questions them, just pin it on the test.

I talked about this in another thread, but I'm more curious about how SERIOUS of a crime it is. I'm sure it's illegal to sell fake drugs, but what do you think her sentence would be? Short enough, I'm guessing, that she should either be pretty close to the beginning or pretty close to the end of it.

I sure couldn't have guessed that. I buy her as a 20-year-old, but you also could have told me she was 35 and I'd buy that too.

When I was in high school, I had to take a test like that to work at (of all places) Toys 'R' Us. It had some pretty straightforward True or False questions like: "I know how to count above ten" and "I think it is okay to steal from work," but also a few head-scratchers like "Sometimes I feel angry." I wound up…

I just realized I'm confusing Rebel Wilson with Rainn Wilson in my head

Yeah, I was in college at the time and Jenny McCarthy basically took over the title of "hottest girl in the world" from Cindy Crawford as far as I was concerned. Watching those clips now, I'm SHOCKED at how many of the female contestants are just dressed like regular people—jeans, sweatshirts, polos—rather than 100%…

Oh, boy.

The thing that's killing off DVDs, in my house at least, is an abundance of choices. I used to buy movies that I really liked and I'd actually watch them multiple times, but now between streaming services and the internet in general, I have brand new (to me) entertainment available whenever I want it. I almost never…

The key was to buy all your contractually-obligated albums immediately, then cancel your membership as soon as they arrived. I used to join every couple years and never stayed in longer than a few months at a time and never gave them a cent more than I was required to. The one exception to that is the time my sister…

I built up a jazz collection the same way. It wasn't really worth it for me to go to the record store and take a chance on a Charley Parker album at full-price just because I'd heard his name, but with Columbia House, I could grab a bunch of Sonny Rollins or Cannonball Adderley or whoever for cheap just to discover…

I thought it was Tito Puente, kind of for the same reason you suspected Santa's Little Helper. Since he wasn't a regular, the show could just toss Puente in jail and forget about him.

I didn't have the dough!

I love these high-concept, short-run shows. I think it was clear from the beginning that Andy Barker, P.I. would never last as an open-ended network show, but if it was made now, it'd be perfect for a Netflix original series or something. Do six or twelve episodes with a self-contained arc, then end it. If it does…

I still occasionally use Dave's line from that one: "Who are you, Martha Stewart?"

I started watching Dave regularly once he moved to CBS, but goddamn the NBC show was so cool and mysterious. I'm not sure if it was my age (I was in high school when he switched networks), or the low budget, or the time we lived in, but when I would manage to stay up and catch an episode of "Late Night," 12:30 am felt…

If we're picking our favorite clips, here's mine (from the NBC days): https://www.youtube.com/wat…
