RIGHT??? WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT? THEY COULD HAVE LITERALLY BEEN LEARNING ANY OTHER SUBJECT AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LESS JARRING!

god, it is seriously the laziest storytelling ever when you set scenes in CALABRIA, ITALY and everyone is speaking English with stupid Italian accents. hire Italian-speaking actors or get your actors to learn a few phrases, ffs. we’re living in an era of TV where a few scenes containing subtitles isn’t going to faze…
if they don’t hook up why am i even WATCHING this show? 🤔
lol that all the cops have to do is run the plates of the stolen car and it’ll immediately ping the Customs database saying that the car crossed the border. then all the cops have to do is request the timestamped footage, where both the plates and all occupants will be visible. how is this show this dumb about such…
yeah, Casual is similar in its middling-ness, but for some reason i am nowhere nearly as annoyed by it. You’re The Worst is just superior in every way, in that the actors are all insanely good and the writing is top-tier. (oh, it’s also funny, something which Love and Casual are... decidedly not.)
people really need to stop encouraging Judd Apatow.
jfc...
it...doesn’t.
i mean, we’re still getting weekly coverage of shows like unREAL, which has a teeny-tiny niche cable audience and also went completely off the rails in S2, so honestly i have no idea what their metrics are telling them anymore.
again, for the what, third(?) time: i am not debating whether or not Claudette’s behavior was rude. personally, i thought she got a weak edit, but THAT IS 100% NOT THE ISSUE.
no, i’m not policing his tone, i’m saying that he did not apply the same critical framework to the white man that he used to discuss the women of color. hi, it’s called reading comprehension.
what the hell, why does AV Club refuse to cover women and POC-led shows? there are so many oversights in this category (The Mick, Speechless, Queen Sugar, Mozart in the Jungle, Survivor’s Remorse, One Day at a Time, Claws, Good Behavior, just to name a few...) that it’s really starting to feel like a targeted effort.
i know you think you’re winning this debate, but you’re really not.
i know what Randall’s comments referred to, i watched the season too. but the fact that he felt the need to specifically call out the 2 women of color for their “attitudes” yet did not extend the same critique to Joe Sasto (who openly mocked another contestant’s WINNING DISHES) is just a weak take, period. the ladies…
yep, sexism and racism are both still major factors in kitchens, as evidenced by the reviewer specifically calling out the 2 WoC chefs for their “bristling” attitudes, but saying nothing about how Joe Sasto was constantly making jerky, whiny remarks whenever he lost challenges. (ie: his need to snarkily rag on…
lmaoooo believe it or not, i was an intern on this show for a few months back in 2009. i even got to meet Laura Ling and Euna Lee (the two Current TV journalists who were imprisoned in North Korea) like 6 months after they returned home. 😂
‘sup, just here to loudly & passionately stan for Frances Ha, The Handmaiden and The Florida Project; three of the best films i’ve seen in the last 5 years. sucks that stories about complex women get less Oscar love, generally-speaking.
it will never not be weird to watch Shitty Jimmy play the role of a charming, not-at-all dickish professor. my brain just can’t adjust!
clearly the reason why Dallas is joining the country club is because it’s a (pseudo) organic setting for her to “coincidentally” run into and interact with Jackie, Robert, Diane, and Nick. (she’s also about to be an empty-nester, so her wanting to join a community of other well-to-do adults makes sense.)…
