" But like Star Trek Beyond before it, Iron Fist seems to think there’s something eminently relatable in the idea of almost accidentally achieving all of your dreams and then feeling dissatisfied and bored by your success. And perhaps for some people that is a relatable problem. But I’d wager that for most people,…

I'm not saying he's on their level, but I don't think you have to be. It just illustrates that the discussion of a racial slur is a perfectly cromulent well of comedy.

If he wants to be able to refer to the word in a comedy bit, I don't think that makes him a bigot. I've seen a decent handful of strong comedic bits centering around the use of the word, and none of them had the lesson of "black people suck".

Honestly, I kind of see it. There's a lot of comedy that can be drawn out of the word- Blazing Saddles, Atlanta, Louis CK, Chris Rock, Dan Harmon, South Park, it's fertile territory. Obviously you shouldn't scream racial slurs at people to demean them, but it is a little odd that people are expected to swap the…

Honestly, does he think that tweet will make Spencer stop liking the song? I just saw Cabaret the other week, and I don't think anyone who saw it would be surprised by the statement that the songwriters were pro-homosexuals and anti-Nazi.

Story by is solid, and quality is irrelevant. If your kid is having a ballet recital, you go, regardless of whether or not it's actually a visual spectacle, it's just an obligation.

I'd say it probably helps you to play a Jewish character if you are yourself Jewish, but I don't think it's essential.

I figured Forrest would just get attached to Deyonce and devolve into an Old Woman Who Swallowed A Fly situation.

Really? I also thought of King, but for me it was more Randall Flagg, like when he resurrected a man by hopping over his corpse.

I've been terrified of her since last week. The hand on the shoulder? She's threatening.

Don't forget Black Mirror.

I don't know. I didn't believe it was him until now, but after this episode I'm 80% sure it's him.

I believe you mean "this show is killing the guest star department".

Doesn't Meritt have a hearing issue that prevents him from playing loudly?

If I had to put my money on any of them living the longest it would be Bowie, but in all honesty all of them took such stupendous quantities of drugs that it's not like Iggy Pop living the longest is absurd.

I mean, what's the metric for who gets to chat with god? Jonah was a real dick.

I like Jesus Christ Superstar, although it's left ambiguous whether Jesus is actually a deity or just a crazy person fomenting revolution.

Bill definitely had some pre-existing issues, but without Dee and Frank I doubt he would have plummeted quite so rapidly.

That's so many gumballs. How many do you usually get for that much? One?

To be fair, I really don't think Maureen Ponderosa was destroyed the the Gang. You could make a case for plenty of characters, from Bill Ponderosa to the Lawyer, but Maureen's particular craziness seems to just kind of exist on its own.
