Spears and Jackson have indicated they’re not holding anything against him and would like us to please stop talking about their five second non-issue, respectively, so the pretense that we’re somehow siding with them against him is faintly dishonest. Seems like if you really give a shit, you should maybe respect their

They're Team Abusive Mother Britney

The collective AV Club hate campaign against this dude is unprecedented.

This site’s constant, stupid editorializing about everything is obnoxious. The Last Jedi has a lot of problems—all three of the new ones did, though clearly Rise was the worst. At any rate it is not at all a perfect cinematic masterpiece.

The biggest issue I have with TLJ was that it didn’t actually seem to want to be a mainline film. It seemed more focused on subverting the franchise tropes only to circle back to them in the last 20 minutes so that there could actually be a followup. Meanwhile, Rey, Finn, and Poe are portrayed as screw-ups who

The problem was the writing. Not Daisy, not Adam, not Oscar, etc. The people who are supposed to know such things in fact didn’t know what story they wanted to tell or what story they were actually telling. The attempt to “correct course” from TLJ produced a ridiculous - and boring - final act. There really just ended

I don’t think anyone in the cast was the problem. The directors and scriptwriters though.... No one was on the same page. As much as people like TLJ, it seemed inclined to do its own thing rather than be the midpoint of a trilogy. RoS was two movies shoved into one and directed by a guy who is only good at starting

I’m enjoying the idea of the MAGA crowd being “forced” to root for a team from SF. 

It would be an understatement to say the “Fuck Your Feelings” MAGA crowd isn’t handling this like rational adults capable of controlling their emotions.

I would care more what Bowen Yang thinks if he was actually funny.

He’s no Buck Henry.

Everyone knows the airplane and Amelia are in the Delta Quadrant. 

I’ve never seen a “Barry Gibb Talk Show” skit and are they always so bad? Fallon couldn’t even reach a falsetto.

Now playing

I thought the Maury Povich sketch was funny/horrifying.

The cast is very good, but they have terrible material to work with.

Yup. Other than PDD and those Weekend Update characters, this was a total dud. I’ve never seen a “Barry Gibb Talk Show” skit and are they always so bad? Fallon couldn’t even reach a falsetto.

When only some of the jokes in the Weekend update are the best part for me this show should get an F rating.   So bad....

I need to stop staying up, hoping this show will be good when I can easily go to bed at a decent hour on a Saturday night, watch it the next day on Peacock, immediately realize it’s awful and then find something else within minutes.

I’m starting to think, and hear me out on this, that a 79-year-old producer might not be the best arbiter of what’s funny.
