There's merch now! It's impossible to find (under links and such, there's The AV Club Store), and if you didn't see the newswire about it, I don't know how you're supposed to know about it now, which defeats the purpose entirely, but still, there's merch!
Seriously, who rolls out merch and then hides the fucking shop?

There's a huge difference between the benefit of the doubt and carte blanche. Let's be clear, the only thing Osborne did wrong is answer a call from THR and agree to talk about a movie he made, then, while talking freely and not from a prepared statement, used words that could either be taken as dismissive of Chinese…

I'm not particularly sure what your point is. My point was simply that, with Trump taking office soon, perhaps 22-year-olds should stop thinking of things like a Hollywood Reporter Roundtable, the essence of asskissing, in hysterical "this is so white and blind and everything that's wrong with the world" terms. It's…

Any experience with TV On The Radio merch?

None of it makes any damned sense, this is just the first time I've heard that particular bit of fuckery. I keep thinking I'm immune to shock, and then I come across a tidbit like that. Can we unplug the internet and start over?

You know how sometimes you don't realize how much you love something until you see it again?
I love this show, and until watching this I really had no idea how much. This show, for me, is what Arrow/The Flash are for a lot of people. Occasionally a big shaggy mess, but totally worth it for when it all comes together…

This is annoying, but as usual is getting overblown by a few idiots on Twitter who have already forgotten that we have more important things to worry about.
Also, isn't it super clear from Osborne's phrasing that he and his team just didn't have the budget to go on a "research trip" to China, not that he feels Chinese…

We're not tough enough for a fort in the woods. We could maybe manage a hipster-styled speakeasy.

"that is, its belief in Pepe The Frog as the reincarnated Egyptian god Kek" What?
…Wait, what?

Don't a lot of scholars think that "virgin" is a mistranslation for "pure of heart"? Which is responsible for a whole lot of problems, come to think of it.

My house is out in the country, was built in the 1980s and flipped in 2003, and while the exterior has none of the McMansion flaws (it's a square country house with a lovely wraparound porch), the construction is terrible. It is, as you say, a frame and drywall; we just spent $2500 replacing the cheap siding after our…

That's Into the Gloss, right? I can't even go there to enjoy the stupidity anymore.
I've been a fashion-watcher for the last decade, and while it's all obviously subjective, he's a horrible designer: he makes the type of clothes the Kardashians think are klassy. Even worse, he's repetitive; a designed is supposed to…

Am I the only person who likes John Cena more than Dwayne Johnson? Johnson just seems so calculated to me. Every aspect of him down to that perfectly manscaped eyebrow seems like it went through five or six layers of his entourage.

Full disclosure, I tapped out after the first half of season one. I'm glad they featured the sister. I maintain it was jarring that they introduced a woman's rape by focusing on how much of a bummer it was for her male relative, especially in an overtly female-focused show.

I burst into tears about twenty minutes into Jessica Jones and stayed up until four in the morning finishing it. I'm fully capable of grasping some of the negatives of the show (the lesbians had a good payoff, but weren't worth all the time spent; Nuke is just kinda there), but the fact that this tough, smart woman is…

This is the same show that casually mentioned that the hero's sister went to bed with a psychotic murderer to prevent the hero from being tortured to death, never clarified if she lived through it or how she handled it, and never brought her up or introduced her as a character?
Literally, it was "my sister fucked this…

Oh, I'm not defending this fuckery in the slightest. It's as bewildering to me (and is in the same vein) as that Slenderman attempted homicide - you can find the website where a person made up, on the spot, the idea of the Slenderman, and posted an image in a photoshop contest. And yet a girl nearly died.
My point,…

The weird thing (ok, one of the weird things) is that a similar story turned out to be true in the UK; I think Scotland Yard is still unwinding Operation Yewtree. I wouldn't be surprised if the unyielding horror over that is one of the reasons the UK went anti-establishment this year, with the disclaimer that I'm not…

Counterpoint: he was sixteen. Reasonable doesn't exist.

Straight-up not watching it when you're about to make another season is mind-bogglingly immature and petty.
