I’d love to see her as the lead in something, but it seems especially wasteful to cast her and Keegan as the boring straight men (well, couple) in a musical. I imagine she’d be put to infinitely better use as an unhinged townsperson.

I am so glad someone over at Disney actually cast Richard E Grant and fucking used him. Of all the stupid terrible shit in Rise of Skywalker, the fact that Grant was cast as a nothing character was one of the worst. Meanwhile in less then 40 minutes on a TV show where they put him in a goofy ass costume, he manages to…
Did she serve them with ham?
I’m just gonna start posting on popular posts since nothing else works so...
They really never did get a handle on Schwimmer’s character, did they? “He’s a 25-year-old paleontologist? And his wife left him for a woman? And he’s kind of a neurotic sad sack? And he’s in love with Rachel? Man, you’d think that would be enough, wouldn’t you? And uh...ummm...I guess we could...give him a monkey?”
I mean I don’t see any downsides to this. Snyder can try and fail to make his own cinematic universe, his cult will praise every single frame, and we know for a fact that he’s not working on properties we actually care about. I’m taking that as a win and have no real interest in caring about what Snyder does any…
Before anyone thinks of doing this, please consider:
Read an interesting profile of Kilmer recently, can’t recall where, but a lot of it centered on an “art space” he’d created in LA. I have to admit I thought the throat cancer diagnosis kind of sent him off the rails (which would be understandable if true) but now I think the guy’s always had a kind of avant garde…
I see my offering has been accepted by the gods and the Bear shall rise again!
That’s a good point about showing the Kevin/sitcom world when she isn’t there. But I still think it’s the series’ way of showing how abusers have a different persona depending on who they are associating with and — to his father and his friend — he is THAT buffoonish guy that they all like and accept for some reason.…
This sounds horrid.
Before tonight’s episode I might have agreed with you. But after this episode, I truly think the “sitcom world” Kevin is 100% Allison’s psychological coping mechanism and that’s not the real Kevin at all. I could be wrong but I think the show is heading towards showing Kevin in Allison’s dramatic world and when that…
a man-child who’s well meaning but an idiot, and then a controlling terrorist of a husband who doesn’t care about his wife even though all the sitcom scenes we saw before didn’t suggest that he actively harmed her.
I feel like this would be a perfect opportunity for a July 4 themed trifle, which is similarly just assembling pre-made ingredients, for the most part. But if making for guests, it’s slightly fancier.
I mean, assuming that they are in fact gay and aren’t just incredibly religious, it does suck all kinds that those people in LW1 feel they have to live their lives hiding their true identities and it is good that someone in their family is willing to be supportive.
The woman simply made a mistake
It seems like so many people take Allison’s refusal to even consider just leaving as some frustrating problem with the show, when it feels like the entire point. It’s easier for her to imagine killing him than to tell him to go fuck himself. Kevin’s not a calculating mastermind plotting to control her. He’s a piece of…
Oh, I love the sitcom element. Among other things, it emphasizes how superficial Kevin’s life is in comparison to his wife’s, and it means he lives in a literal bubble, in which his incessant narcissism is being validated by everything around them (and seemingly by everyone falling into the pattern simply because…
I don’t know. There are a hundred reasons why people don’t leave failed relationships. Kids and money are the two main ones, but fear of failure, religion, wanting to “prove” something to someone (the amount of people I know who were raised by divorced parents sticking with bad relationships just to say they won’t…
Man, good thing the DOD left the Kent-Lane family completely defenseless even though they now know that an actual evil Kryptonian is flying around trying to make Superman join his ranks. It would’ve been super inconvenient for those writers if Morg-Zoh or whoever-the-fuck got krypto-gassed, shot, or stabbed, or…
