My favorite place in VT has a huge old cemetery going back to the 1800s. The causes of death are on all the tombstones and they range from the tragic to the darkly funny.

Ken is Mormon. That should explain everything.

I was just about to mention his Henry V, which I’m not seeing mentioned in his generous obituaries tonight.  God, I LOVED his work.

The series refuses to give any easy answers about the morality of Joel’s last act in season one

Well I've never enjoyed any of Cinemax's original programming, so I can't imagine I'd like Fuck Beef very much, either.

I personally prefer the performances of Sheryl Lee Ralph and Lisa Ann Walter on Abbott  Elementary as the wise--but not cynical--veteran teachers. Janelle James is very funny though and that is a sneaky layered part

This is why these categories are awful and why comedies never get best picture -- because you have to decide a movie is on one side of the line or the other. No doubt, though, MD is a sometimes comic, dark melodrama. Within the same scene it’s campy and deeply harrowing. How do you slot that? And that’s where these…

As an ICU nurse, no matter what the circumstances, if you make them go in, not of their own accord, but force them “straight into rehab”? IT NEVER WORKS. Even if they do go on their own with the best of intentions, even if they have detox’d in the hospital and you get them into a good program, even if they swear they…

Today on at AVClub: An actress accuses Jews of genocide and the commenterarati instantly defend her. A hack comedian tells a hack joke and everyone says he deserves the heat.

He’s a professional gambler to his core and super serious about this stuff, and wouldn’t miss the chance to give himself any edge.

That sounds reasonable on its face, but when the phenomenon is Holzhauer dominating the all-time daily leader board, it doesn’t hold up. He’s only getting to that point by finding the Daily Doubles, betting big on them, and getting them right.

I’ve had it for 19 (!) years with no breaks in my subscription and I’m about ready to call it quits.

nope. so much L and G and B--none of which has anything to do with T. Totally different things which the T have co-opted and now are trying to destroy. 

It was offensive, in the right way. The line ‘when it’s black it’s a gang, and when it’s italians, it’s the mob, and when it’s jews, it’s a coincidence’ is brilliant in it’s structure. That’s not saying you have to agree OR be offended. But he couches it in counterexamples that puts the critic in the position of…

SNL sucks now. OF COURSE the dave chapelle episode was the best one, because hes a great comedian. His mindless, woke critics can go eat a dick.

SNL sucks, but Chapelle will always be top-shelf entertainment.

If you hate the man because of the accusations made against him just say so. Don’t lie though and act like the disgust oozing from your article is directed towards his films. Cuz if it’s Matt Schimkowitz, Movie Critic vs the films of Woody Allen, Woody wins. Every time.

Annie Hall was his 10th movie. After that, he made Manhattan, Hannah and Her Sisters, Crimes and Misdemeanors, Manhattan Murder Mystery, Bullets Over Broadway, Vicky Christina Barcelona, Midnight in Paris, and Blue Jasmine.

And music? Editing?

Yeah, maybe when The Walking Dead! The Musical opens at the Winter Garden Theater, Rob Bricken will start doing recaps.
