Who cares about the Magicians this much that made it worth chopping these interviews into clips and then posting multiple “articles” every day for days on end? I’m usually of the opinion that if an article doesn’t seem interesting, just don’t click on it. But with the Kinja layout these damn Clips articles help,…

Because McLevy doesn’t like bright colors or something?

Way to go Mrs. Maisel! I didn’t see a lot of buzz for it, and am glad to see it grab some awards.

I’d usually read the first couple puns, chuckle, then collapse the threat.

I’m going with 1) read more books (I binge read on vacation but don’t take the time for much of the rest of the year) and 2) not click on any AV Club article with the Trump administration in the headline unless it actually relates to pop culture. I already get my news from news sites, so those AV Club articles are…

The seal is for marksmanship, and the gorilla is for sand racing.

With few exceptions, the only people I see who mourn “scheduled” television are pop culture writers. I get that it makes your jobs harder because you have to binge write, and that it probably hurts business because you have a flurry of articles when the season drops rather than being able to spread them out over…

I was well into my 30s before I realized that George Thorogood and the Delaware Destoryers was functionally a Bo Diddley cover band. Still enjoy it, but now also enjoy Bo Diddley.

That’s what drives me crazy on the free speech discussions. Everybody wants to be able to shut down Nazis because, hey, they’re Nazis. But they never seem to realize that those same arguments will be used by Trump against anti-Trump protesters. And they don’t even have to wait until someone they disagree with is in…

The Variety article that Rife links to says that the California Supreme Court said “ladies nights” violate CA’s anti-discrimination law back in 1985, and that the attorney is boasting about the number of cases like this that he has had.

If Rife hadn’t brought up Austin, I’d agree with you that the info is interesting but not necessary. But Rife did bring up Austin as an example of whining, and linked to one of her prior articles from early in the dispute in which the mayor brushed off the complaint of discrimination, saying it was just a “private…

You keep bringing up the Wonder Woman screening without disclosing how it actually concluded. Two official complaints were made to Austin’s Equal Employment/Fair Housing Office, and Alamo Draft House admitted that its advertising violated Austin’s antidiscrimination laws. It settled one of the complaints in part by…

It’s possible for Fieri to be a decent guy and for his shtick to suck. Two things, people!

In conclusion, Flavortown is a land of contrasts.

Agreed, but it’ll also be like car nip for lazy historians, just like it is for lazy journalists. It’s a cherry picker’s paradise.

Say what you will about the continued viability of this feature, but the photo of a team of pointy hatted orphans being forced to haul their own Christmas tree did make me chuckle.

Saying the 2016 election “spoke” for whites (huge numbers of whom didn’t vote for Trump) is as useless as saying it spoke for America as a whole. Because Trump won the election then all Americans must love Trump, right? Or because Clinton won the popular vote America spoke and we are all Democrats now, right? The…

“negates the creepiness with a simple gender swap.”

Goddamnit. I must have been distracted by his cheetahs.

I don’t think it was supposed to be sexy. “Too gynecological” was how Benecio Del Toro’s character described it.
