Is there anyone or anything Jon Hamm does not have chemistry with?

Maybe it’s me, but I think it would have been far more interesting to see Stella refuse the offer from those asshole ad guys (is there any other type?) and tip the waitress the $20,000 just on principle.

This show seems to be superficially interested in the ways new media has impacted legacy, but seems to fail to understand those issues every step of the way.

It’s really hard to explain to kids these days what it was like being a teenager before the internet and cell phones.

Uh, you actually do have explicit permission to call him Al.

Is Idris Elba the black Gerard Butler or is Gerard Butler the white Idris Elba?

Is there as high profile an actor as Elba, whose CV is as awash with sub-mediocre, generic projects? He’s arguably one of the most famous actors on the planet, yet keeps starring in these things that are often at best, forgettable.

Yep, that’s what everyone used to call it when I lived there.

That’s a great description. And the only thing that made The White Lotus tolerable was its savage satirical streak. AJLT is still taking itself way too seriously and ‘The Effort of ‘trying not to offend anyone at all ever again!”’ should not feel so labored and...joyless.

When I lived in NY in the late 90s and worked as a fashion editor, everyone called it the Met Ball

Was there NOT a Hold Me Closer Tony Danza joke in there somewhere? Phoebe Buffett is rolling in her grave.

Are the writers so oblivious to what people are going thru these days that they think we’re interested in a bunch of self absorbed assholes?”

Nice to see that some things never change.  I am talking, of course, about Tony Danza’s haircut from 1976.

Is it just me or is watching 50 something people have sex and whine about their rich people problems about as boring as watching paint dry.

With this being a new show with a new name instead of Season 8 of Sex and the City, it should be able to stand on its own without reference to that former series, like you can watch Frasier without having watched Cheers. But the only reason to watch the adventures of Miranda, Carrie and Charlotte in And Just This Shit

Do we have a new winner for typos in a single paragraph?

I feel like Greg was a character who was sort of screwed by the writers because in the first 2 seasons he was a semi main character. Then as the writers fell in love with the siblings they sort of shafted Greg for more focus on the siblings. Compare Season 1 Greg to Season 4 Greg. Greg gets way more screen time in

I think it’s telling that, according to Hader, they wrote the first two seasons pretty much by the seat of their pants, while they had a lot more time during COVID to plan out the last two seasons. I think that’s part of the reason the first two were more intense and, strangely, made more sense to me overall— the

The British know the answer to this question.

Wow, I really enjoyed this season. It felt like an actual continuation of the original series, unlike, say, when Arrested Development came back. It’s disappointing that it was only 6 episodes, but I’d rather be left wanting more than see it wear out its welcome. Really hope to see it come back for more, especially
