It doesn't have to be that though. See: Amy Jellicoe.

You're right, women comedians should only ever talk about how great men are, not make jokes about themselves or their own gender. Yeesh, this line about Sarah Silverman is so goddamn tired.
And I agree with the latter complaint - that's an oversight. But the hyperbole is what gets me - it's not really white-washing if the roles are occupied by actors of Mexican, Cuban and Nigerian descent, are they? Groff and Bartlett's roles absolutely could have been played by Asian men, I'll grant. But it's more of a…
Yeah. And if social media is any indication - which, y'know, it might or might not be - it had a BIG fanbase in Latin America.
I think Myles McNutt noted that on Twitter. As long as Andrew Haigh could get a nomination for Direction, I'm fine with it.
Crazy that Enlightened has been #1 three years running.
I particularly enjoy the screaming that it was "white-washing" when it had two main cast members of colour, as well as at least two recurring in Frank in S1 and Malik in S2 (also Owen), and as though the show weren't so obviously aware and reflexive about Patrick's evident privilege. (People love to talk about…
Hey, it was watched by something like 1 million people every week incl. DVR and VOD and stuff. That's half of The Mindy Project's live audience, so it could be worse.
Yeah, he has his show about First Fleet arrivals in Australia which has no Indigenous Australians on it to fall back on. (Fuck that show.)
A masterpiece full-stop! The only out-and-out one of this TV decade, I'd argue.

I don't think I could do an open relationship at this stage, but at the same time, i suspect that some of the time the desire for one is something that has to be fostered in a relationship, discussed, attempted, discussed again. It could very well be something I want one day. But I'm single and I struggle to find guys…
Make sure you email them and tell them that you did that. It might be a lie to say you subscribed specifically for Looking but hey, can't hurt.
Maybe you should try only opening your relationship when you're together for a while and see if that works better?
I missed Lake Bell on this show so much, but I miss Erinn Hayes even more. Also Megan Mullally's physical comedy.
I'd say 2 > 3 > 1 > 4 > 5, personally.
May I call you Jiggly?
The group (note the deliberate misspelling).
Possibly too expensive. I mean, they can't even afford to put Untucked on the air anymore (supposedly) so I can't imagine Spice Girls songs would be all that cheap.
True, but they also have to weigh that against the looks they actually brought to the competition in preparation for any given week. They don't exactly have a full wardrobe at their disposal.
