There’s a simple answer that explains everything; bad writing.
How strange that a guy who is a major salesman for his company is pointing out the good things his company is doing. You would think the head of FX would avoid the self-congratulation and just point out all the bad things his company is doing.
Oh, I think I get what you mean now. I thought you were calling black people who don’t like the n-word even when said by a black person “fucked” rather than describing the situation.
He’s not saying the issue is American audiences, he’s saying the issue is American creators. And he’s correct. Satire, outside of a few fringe outliers (and in other mediums, such as the Onion), in America is about clapter and not pushing things too much.
So then you didn’t really answer, because your solution is a made up scenario that puts an impossible onus on the offended.
I don’t think you did. Are you saying the Fugees are fucked because they don’t let black people ask them about their lyrics before they make their music, or that black people are fucked because they don’t ask the Fugees to alter their lyrics before they make their music?
Do you really think the average black person is going to get to ask Fugees what they do and don’t put in his lyrics?
So black people who find the word offensive even when a black person says it are just fucked?
You shouldn’t say it if you’re black, either.
This isn’t pop culture.
A) Norm Macdonald is one of the funniest people alive.
The one I wanted was the Tick. Season 2 was so good and more people need to see it.
Yeah, this is definitely my favourite film of the year (Farewell is close which is as beautiful and twee as this is sharp and satirical). It just does everything well.
I think it will have a decent multiplier. I saw it opening night, (which to be fair is going to attract the people most likely to love it) and the audience applauded when it finished and the people I walked out with were talking about going to see it again.
Dowd is exceedingly kind to this movie. It’s genuinely bad. A great idea, poorly executed.
So the ones from this stretch are going to be free after 6 months except the final 6, but they haven’t said if that means the new norm will be all future episodes will be stitcher only, or if it’s just a bonus for stitcher subscribers.
It’s weird that Vulture interviewed someone who wasn’t culturally relevant and didn’t have her work prominently used in a current critically and commercially successful movie.
“After all, the show’s fifth season ended on a note of its titular drunken equine asshole maybe finally coming to terms with the hard work of being a slightly better person”
I’d wager it’s more to do with how Netflix works now. New seasons of old shows don’t register in the consciousness as much as new content does unless it’s a major hit. Bojack was from before Netflix started their unofficial “two and out” policy, if it was released today, it never would have made it to season 3, union…
