The author is very much aware that the nature of television has changed. That is the entire point of the article.

Yes, let’s not critically think and write about the media our children consume, let’s just let them blindly watch anything. Sounds like good parenting skills...

You’re not alone in this, Kevin.

The Sinking of the Essex is actually a fascinating bit of maritime history, if any one is interested. Terrifying, and full of wrong choices, but fascinating none the less.

Just going to throw out there that with the extreme amount of weight he cut for the role, you don’t want to see him with his shirt off.

Meanwhile at MSG, Messier is still talking at his retirement ceremony.

But the question and topic at hand is women being considered to host one of the many, many late night shows, and to that his answer is evasive bullshit. Not that it’s his question to answer anyway — obviously, he’s not the one making…

Ellen is a great TV host and hilarious, and I’m glad she’s on TV as a daytime host.

1) Not mutually exclusive. We both know the photos have been heavily retouched, so don’t pretend it was an inevitable coincidence the photographer couldn’t have possibly noticed before printing. They’ve made the MOC in this picture look so light that the first time I glanced at it, my thought was, “What about Trevor…
