Occam's Razor answer: She gave him some.

No doubt. A TV married couple in their 30s with a house better at least be trying to start a family. That's the law.

Few things in life hurt more than a family member telling you what they really think of you.

That's your answer for everything…!

He's the Black Guy!

If you believe that, you clearly aren't a Blues fan. There are dozens of working Blues artists in Chicago alone.

This edition felt too slight to me. The better 30 for 30's take sports stories and put them in context of a larger world. There's not enough here for that. It would have been better as a short.

Mom Piggy-Back Thread:

Well, NBC's entertainment division sucks too, so at least they're consistent. If it wasn't for the NFL and the Olympics, there would be no reason to watch that network.

"Boy Band" is a thing. So there.

No one can successfully produce or host this show anymore. Failure is assumed from the start.

This series' best episodes usually involve interactions between Penny and Sheldon.

Wow, FX turned into a hard-core sex channel so gradually I didn't even notice.

I feel like Upstairs at Eric's (1982) by Yazoo (Yaz if you live in North America) never gets enough credit as one of the best synthpop albums from the era, definitely should be an essential. Alison Moyet's voice is just killer.

It was really something to see P&R recover from what was a truly god-awful first season to become one of the best sitcoms on the air. I think it'll become even more clear how great this show is with a few years' hindsight.

Hmmm. Not bad, but it is pretty derivative. When making these comparisons, the key thing to remember is New Order was never twee. They were as much a club/dance band as they were melancholic romantics. Bands that use NO as inspiration too often don't have that kind of energy.

Who hurt you, AV Club?

It doesn't explain the change in that character, though. It's the writers deciding to turn him into more of a caricature, playing up certain parts of him to get laughs. It's the same thinking that turned Bernadette into a sociopathic chipmunk.

How about an award for Best Production Company? Or at least best looking logo that appears at the start of the movie?

This sounds like something AV Club could totally run with. An annual alternative Oscars (the Melvins? the Steves?) voted on by staff and readers? I know I'd vote.
