"Edited according to network standards.” Oh, television, you're not fooling me again. I learned my lesson about that with Pants-Off Dance-Off.

I don't think it's a good omen that Terminus was the original name for Atlanta.

In that case, I can't blame her for cashing in on what sells. But that's all she's doing here.

Maybe I loved The Librarians so much because I am one. Some of the characters (especially the head librarian) are definitely cringe-inducing but also identifiable; I've known real-life variations on most of them. A show like that about librarians in this country would never get made. Anyway, I will have to give…

It is on Hulu. I haven't watched it yet, but I've seen The Librarians by the same creators (husband-and-wife team Wayne Hope and Robyn Butler), and it's hysterical.

Oh, I just got it …

I think that's how Hollywood sees her, too. More's the pity, as she's capable of better things. In the right roles, I could see her as a younger Kathy Bates.

I avoided Identity Thief because I thought it looked insufferable. This trailer looks even worse. And that's too bad because I really like Melissa McCarthy in the right role. (Mike and Molly is not a great show, but she's good in it; her character is smart, sweet, funny, and yes, sexy.) I guess I can't blame her…

Exactly my experience, too.

If you go by how Carl has aged (and it's impossible for me not to notice, having just watched first episodes again), it's moving in something close to real time.

If anyone ever asked me for an example of a high-concept movie, King Ralph is the first movie I'd think of.

For all its flaws, I love the American version, so I was at least intrigued to see that this has come to Hulu. This review makes them sound more similar than I was expecting.

This show does weddings better than any sitcom I've ever seen, so it shouldn't surprise me that they do farewells really well, too. Sweet and touching without being cloying or overly sentimental, and not sappy at all. Great job.

If "this is not a film for political junkies," I can't imagine who its audience would be.

I thought I was the only one who remembered Penn being on Miami Vice. Teller also was in a later episode (looking not so '80s-ish as Penn did); that was the first time I heard him speak.

Okay, now I'm worried. The only one of those I've ever heard of is Lil Bub.

It's still not enough to make me drink J&B, though.

My grandfather smoked unfiltered Camels. They had to be as bad as Chesterfields. But I've always been fascinated by the artwork on the pack.

Geraldine: "And the next night is 'The Moral Maze with Jim Trott.' What's your subject, Jim?"
Jim: "'Is sex with poodles always wrong?'"
Geraldine: "And you've found someone to speak on both sides of that argument?"
Owen: "He certainly has."

My first thought on reading this came to me in a Jim Trott voice: "No no no no no no … "
