Phrasing aside, I like how it's one letter away from Lando while also echoing Lando's problems with pronouncing Han.

That's a good way to describe him. I've compared him to Quark in the past. Will try to get away with anything and everything, but also can admit when the jig is up and doesn't really take it personally.

I just meant under normal conditions. I like Hannah, but she's in the running for worst Survivor liar ever (which you'd remember better than I as to the other candidates)

Absolutely agree. As a younger,week-to-week viewer, I could see being invested in Jim and Pam, but I was alarmed at the number of grown people responding to me saying I didn't Jim and Pam's courtship by answering "but f*** Jim, that guy sucked." No, show integrity and character for *yourself* and break up with him…

I just watched Crashing on Netflix and preferred it to Fleabag. Not great but worth watching.

I was reading some Mad Men stuff I had saved up and one critic (I think it was a former AV Clubber, honestly don't recall who) had Treme as a top 5 show of all-time.

The other replies covered the good ones and prob remember specifics better than I do. The last 5 or so seasons have seen an uptick in tribal blindsides (and votes that flip literally at tribal) as an evolution in the game (which is covered in the show, with the idea of "alliances" shifting to "voting blocs" that are…

Is she a good liar? That's the fly in her ointment from this episode, as not being able to convince Zeke she was still on his side caused Zeke to target her.

There was just a lot going on there, so I wasn't catching every comment.

Yeah, I didn't get why Adam wouldn't just go to Will (Jay had immunity), "Hannah is not going home. I am not flipping. Do you care enough about Zeke to go home?"

I'm pleasantly surprised by this season, but if you think this is one of the best, you've got some fantastic binge-watch catching up to do. You're in for some treats.

I get the sense Ken and Jay aren't threats to win (also projecting since neither gets much confessional time, at least not now that Jay's not a power player anymore). I'm hoping Ken threw the immunity David won to keep the bullseye off, but I get the sense that running an immunity gauntlet is the only way he can build…

Fantastic and thrilling double episode but it'd be hard to ever top:
1. Russell going theatrical DGAF and giving the idol to Parvati
2. Triple idol (even if they screwed it up, it was great fun)

As rough as Rebels can be, that trade is totally worth it. I think Detours might have been a disaster (if nothing else, because Family Guy and Robot Chicken already mined the franchise for jokes).

Clone Wars ties are what made it good, so no surprise it took a big step back when those threads were mostly removed.

Odd timing to read your comment on kids shows and lessons, as I was just reading the Uproxx oral history of Hey Arnold, I know there's still a couple gems (Steven Universe, pardon the gem pun), but feels like kids shows used to be much more skilled at making those types of episodes.

I thought it was a decent harmless-witty-banter cable show (it was also before I aware of the volume of really good shows)

I gave the podcast another shot this week with the Best Of and it's just not for me.

I saw some Fairly Legal years back and it was still a little strange post-POI

She's also dressed/makeup-ed a little different to appear Latin vs her actual heritage.
