I liked South Park’s take on him, a rare inclusion of the person himself too. It’s part of how a younger gen (or even just a few years difference) has arrived to the gaming/internet/social net combination and the idea of entertainment mutated out from that. He’s just logical, someone would be doing it, I’m really…

Prior to obtaining his U.S. citizenship in August 2006, FIGUEREDO submitted documentation explaining his mental disability that falsely stated that he had severe dementia.

But with 3 years, it would be precisely those three gents who could pull it together to eloquently send their Top Gear era off in a deserving way — BBC apparently doesn’t think of the viewership and treats the show like some time slot to fill, rather than the phenomena it became.

“Good enough for Britney”…. this is the same period (well, by 2004) she marries Federline and all that.

In fact, having seen Atkinson on TG, and as he does fit to the TG template (also races I believe, or at the least collects cars) I would love to see him seriously take it on. It would mean committing to a new character as it were, but I think he'd be honest about it and certainly great fun on the road trips.

Aesthetically and functionally, just love the Le Baron ratio of window to body metal. The fact that the view is open and encompassing really enhanced the driving experience of these older era models. Not to mention, no headrests, etc.

Yes, I've tried to also watch past years, especially the road trips. Despite I like his erudite command of language and making even stats sound deep, I'm totally not the target audience for Clarkson's dated UK-to-world vision, and it does chafe in different ethical ways to hear "slope" in there on an otherwise…

He really serves a purpose, in being the curmudgeon there in the pack of three. The other two do use that to make fun of it, as in fact, is the nature of the chemistry. It was stupid for him to take a punch at a co-worker, and it crosses a legal line which corporations - not to mention State affiliated companies -…

I watch Top Gear and love different aspects of it, I've mentioned it before here in comments. But I would say the way Clarkson describes them, the "dinosaurs" could just as easily be certain autos and the companies that manufacture them, and by extension, Top Gear's modus operandi, the generally upfront commentary and…

Oh I'm with you for a needed refresher, at least for parts of it. I wouldn't want to touch the road trip specials though. I get nervous about breaking up the Top Gear balance, because as much as I loved May alone in his Toy Stories series, sometimes it's also too much May-ness (and his same set of friends) and that's…

There is a certain chemistry with May and Clarkson. They both carry that old school sense of educated UK presenters (regardless of Clarksons puerile wit at times, that seems even to match the old part of old school) both having that UK Top Gear combination of seeming almost erudite (May obviously more so, making it…

If there is one interesting aspect to this Uma makeup story - at least one that I took away - it's that she suddenly appeared to be a contender for the role of Joni Mitchell, should such a film ever be made.

From what I understand of colleagues I know from there, because Lebanon is very officially still at war with Israel, their citizens - especially who are public or semi-public figures - don't reject from "hate" but from fear of very real official recrimination. This is a country where a citizen definitely does not want…

I think the comparison to My Little Pony is interesting if only to recall what the female re-developer, Lauren Faust, was known to bring to the success, especially regarding female characters. Oh, and then she was gone after two seasons:

I think Miss Flower's original face (excluding the altered lips) had more natural animation and expression, something behind the eyes. The surgery trades a degree of that away for a sculpted expression, much more oriented to a certain fixed point of views that please, perhaps what happens when we get used to images…

Well, it would be perplexing being as she says a "born again Episcopalian" which, given the "born again" I think implies the very conservative side of that faith's contentious split into two camps. One side welcomes, the other... not so much.

Weinstein did not attend Cannes Film Festival, but instead was visiting Syrian refugee camps in Jordan... What?

Yes how true: January Jones. But let's add, produce the movie for Lifetime where it belongs.

There are a few points overlapping in this post that I think doesn't make it easier to address one of them without getting snagged in the rest. But I can imagine the stress the author feels, because I don't see how there anything to expect anymore from airlines or airline passengers, the "social contract" we believe…

Yes, that photo recalled for me the creepy second act of their weird relationship. It just makes the mother look even more suspect in the overall story.
