That movie was when I learned that when people say a movie they just saw is “cute,” it’s code for “bad.”

Yeah, there’s been a couple instances of her basically saying “you’re barking up the wrong tree” to guys, but they’ve definitely played it very under-the-radar. I kind of assumed they’re keeping that in their back pocket for a future story arc.

The real kicker will be when they inevitably have a pregnancy plotline with a “who’s the father?” cliffhanger next season.

Yeah, I don’t really understand the high value she (and the other switchboard operators) place on being “in the show,” it’s not the major leagues, it’s just a service industry job.

Yeah, I think her storming out of the venue after getting pulled off stage was just frustration boiling over that she wasn’t past such things after her appearance on the telethon.

For sure it was better, and actually had jokes. I’m just saying she’s not especially any better at it than any of the other cast members.

I disagree that Cecily Strong is a good singer. Remember that super warbly and awkward rendition of “To Sir, With Love” she did for Obama? I think she’s a good-to-great sketch performer but she’s not a good singer. I wish they’d stop letting her just do weaksauce karaoke and call it a sketch.

It’s crazy that Pete Davidson has now played Grandpa Joe more than once on SNL.

Yeah, they were including The Hobbit movies (which yes, should’ve been just one movie), I was just being pedantic.

In what universe are there “dozens” of Lord of the Rings movies?

I don’t think they hate Poe so much as they hate that he gets slapped and told to stand down in LAST JEDI for doing things that Han Solo and Luke do routinely in the other movies.

The other awesome thing is that Bill Murray ended up voicing Garfield in those live-action movies from ~2005, thus completing the Bill Murray/Lorenzo Music circle.

The problem, from my standpoint, is that this means they’ll also pull everything they own via subsidiaries and child companies and stuff from every other streaming platform.

If recent history is any guide, it’ll end up being a revival where it’s basically the same except Frasier is now an ardent Trump supporter reflecting Grammer’s real life political views, and there’s some new strawman idiot liberal characters for him to dunk on.

I believe that was actually a promotional poster for season 3, they did a series with Rebecca inserted into a bunch of different “prestige cable drama” posters — there was a Mad Man one, and a few others IIRC. The Breaking Bad one had a “Crazy Bad,” tagline, the Mad Men one said “Crazy Mad,” etc.

Yeah, this reminds me of Norm Macdonald’s favorite joke from his time on Weekend Update (about Julia Roberts and Lyle Lovett).

Yeah, it’s not that they couldn’t make the show because it would be offensive, it’s that they would either have to make Michael Scott a heel again (and undo the super-sentimental send-off they gave him in the original show), or else they could keep him as a fundamentally decent guy who has a happy home life and that…

The cool thing about Chuck-E-Cheese was that every game only takes 1 token (unlike most arcades), so you just have to forget about winning a crappy prize with the tickets and get the most bang for your token by optimizing for the funnest games rather than the most tickets.

That’s what I thought. The interior looked so similar to the waiting room we’ve seen in BrBa that I wasn’t sure if this was supposed to be another “Saul” brick falling into place or not. At any rate I’m guessing that’s going to be the final place he actually picks this season as he keeps going to cheaper and cheaper…

Did anybody catch if the last scene between Kim and Jimmy took place at Saul Goodman’s office from Breaking Bad? I thought the interior looked like it, but the exterior looked different, but I couldn’t tell if they were just shooting it from different angles or if it was a different strip mall.
