Cue the endless bitching about "tired" and "unfunny" network sitcom concepts and characters who fit in stereotypes.

Praised. Many have been tainted.

I don't think Buffy was ever likable. Too whiny and self-obsessed. True that a young woman tasked with saving the world is allowed some angst, but watching the full seven seasons I never connected with Buffy in the way I did with Willow, Xander, even Cordelia.

Best soundtrack ever made, I'll give you that.

I love Chris Hardwick and the Nerdist in general, but Amber's interview was at the top of the list in quality. Sounds like a genuinely fun and cool woman. I think she did an episode of Table Top with Wil Wheaton on Geek and Sundry.

"Your shirt…" Damn that still gets me. Amber Benson gave Tara such strength and such fragility all at once. I wish we had been seeing Amber in so many other things in these intervening years.

Like the Last Dragon, or Conan the Barbarian.

Pretty sure that's "BBQ" under his fingers.

I've gotten the same impression in relationship to Seinfeld. I've never liked it. No empathy or heart, and that's something I need to connect to a show.

Friends has become a punching bag now because of it's definite 90s quality, over-whiteness and silly relationships. But I still love it. It's mostly nostalgia, of course, but there are so many quotable moments that it's hard to let go of.

Perhaps we need a graduating high school class to come together and defeat the big bad currently in charge of… oh I should stop there. No way students in high school would come together like this these days. Too many things on the internet and Snapchat to distract.

That same argument could be applied to "Once More With Feeling".

The Body is not on this list. Boo. In a series that plays with potentially scary monsters on a weekly basis, the most frightening episode to me is the honest, visceral portrayal of the loss of Joyce.

Maybe Tim Burton will have a M. Night Shyamalan resurgence.

Hmmmm, that title suggests that it's about our current federal administration.

Ebert was such a movie lover that he gave a lot of movies more positive ratings (bless his soul) when he peers lambasted him. That's what I loved about him. Not much of the pretension showed through. He could see quality in most flicks, even if they were just the dumb, popcorn-munching variety.

Sadly, each time I heard the name "The Master", I was expecting Anthony Ainley and his rubbing beard to come onto the screen.

It was painful to watch her this morning. She makes Kellyanne look well-informed and competent.

And now for the 2017 Macy's Day Parade, David Letterman as Santa!

It won't happen. The same argument could have been made about not giving him media attention after the pu**y-grabbing video (and even before that), but the media bought in because he was good for business. Everyone wants to see the next unhinged he tweets.
