Not for a while, or maybe never. It's one of them Amazon Prime Exclusive dealies.

"Ridiculous! Apply yourself!"

Yeah, fair enough. If you look back at season 1 of Breaking Bad, you could make the same complaint: every character except Walt was one-dimensional, because the season was basically a study of Walt. But I wouldn't have called season 1 of Breaking Bad the best show ever, either. It depends what you're looking for in

I agree. This show is pretty great, but if you step back an inch or two you can see it's not as perfect as some are saying. Alan Sepinwall just wrote in his review of this week's episode that every character other than Cohle and Hart is a caricature, and I can't really disagree. The female characters I find especially

Yes. It is better than Lost. Takes a few episodes to get into, but yes.

Oh man, I'd pay good money to read Tina's True Detective fan fiction. Or to hear Linda say "alright!" after one of Rust's nihilisitic speeches.

"So the discrimination is occurring upstream with the decisions who will
get directing jobs and what films will get distributed. You can't
really blame the Academy or Cannes."

I see your point, but if there were 5 green jellybeans in your jar, you'd still expect the green jellybeans to be randomly picked around 5% of the time, not once ever (and that one time the green jellybean has to share the jellybean award with a red one, so it's kind of half a win). Obviously the film-world sexism

Uhh pretty sure there's plenty of rape in the TV and in the movies. There's a whole Law & Order about it.

On a more positive note, tomorrow's Galentine's Day. I'm sure there's a dudely equivalent. Malentine's Day?

Is this a thing now? I've been getting this shit since I was 12.

That's not what it says in George Washington's bible!

It's absurd how much that sort of thing bothers me. "Ugh, The Americans looks stupid!" (goes to watch Grey's Anatomy) "Why would anyone watch Hannibal? So dumb!" (runs to watch True Blood) "I saw one episode from the first season of Parks & Rec. How could anyone watch that shit?" (watches every single episode of Two

Yes, Ricky, you must trust and listen to Scrawler. She won that Commie, so it's, like, a rule.

Apologies in advance for the cursing and dark philosophizing, but I can't help myself. I just watched last night's True Detective. McConaugHEY!

I like the saying, "I'm not shocked, I'm contemptuous." Contempt for everyone!

I thought most people accepted incest nowadays.*

These people do bomb abortion clinics and kill abortion providers. Not as often as suicide bombers suicide-bomb things, but more often than you'd think.

Hey, they're only lashing out because they're so oppressed! It's the last acceptable prejudice!

Way I see it, if someone's unstable/douchey enough to think telling a five-year-old to kill herself is a great idea, might be unstable/douchey enough to go through with a death threat. People be violent.
