The movie was just kinda meh for me, but I hated hated HATED the book! After Mitch turned informant he and his wife both became such arrogant, insufferable assholes that I was actually rooting for the Mafia to kill them both. I’m still amazed that Grisham launched a career with that book (a career that’s been…

I’ll only watch it if Che follows his Update pattern of chuckling to himself after every single joke he makes.

Slightly off-topic but has anyone else been lucky enough to have their own MST-style riff in a theatre?

In fairness, I think she was busy making a movie during the shooting of the reboot so they only had time to write her one scene. But yeah, she was great on GG— maybe it’s because all her lines were scripted, so she was more subdued and thus able to actually act and show emotions that made her likeable and empathetic.…

The only thing I didn’t like was how cold Tom’s wife came across— in her very first scene she’s emasculating him in front of their daughter and passive-aggressively complaining about housework, and later when he potentially injures himself by slamming into a concrete wall she isn’t even concerned and just rolls her…

You should read the book, it’s amazing.

Don’t forget they lost a very dear member of their family along the way...

Was anyone else bothered by the countdown timer in that game show sketch? It was supposed to be for “all day” so it started at 24:00:00, but then when it started counting down it suddenly went to 24:99:59... and then when the seconds got to 1 it suddenly said 24:88:59. How hard is it to make a countdown timer?

As someone who’s done a lot of introductions I can tell you that when you read the same names week after week you definitely fall into a rhythm, and you end up announcing them the exact same way every time whether you realize it or not. So yeah, I think he’s doing them live every week for sure, he’s just settled into…

Near as I can tell, the point is “Bringing meat onstage makes Kate and Aidy corpse.”

Yeah, when your director has no idea how to shoot sketches with more than five people, your director needs to be replaced. If this was the first time I would give him some slack (even if it was two badly-directed sketches in one show) but it’s been a constant problem this season, if not longer.

For me it was Police Academy 4. Also terrible, but of course 10-year-old me thought it was hysterical.

I’m not talking about “bitch” roles, but if you’re in comedy— particularly the broad slapsticky kind-- your character should be able to show some moments of self-deprecation and made to look foolish once in a while. Aidy Bryant also comes across as pretty affable but she has no problem being the butt of a joke.…

She works just enough to stay in the public eye and have people think she’s fabulous, apparently.

I’m not sure if the clip is online but my favorite ever “heart getting ripped apart on a game show moment” was on Deal Or No Deal where a very loud and screechy blonde was playing for a 2 million dollar briefcase. Her equally loud and screechy friends ended up convincing her to sell her case for something like 30…

You can’t possibly be suggesting that it’s a terrible idea to make a sequel to a beloved comedy THIRTY FRICKIN’ YEARS after the fact????? That idea is simply ludicrous!

The headline reminded me of one of the entries in that scary story contest that Jezebel runs every Halloween, where a couple of guys had been living in this woman’s walls for months and she thought it was a demon of some sort. Then I read the article and thought, “Oh... hmm.” Bit of a letdown.

That is so cool, I’ve always wanted to do that!!! Did you build a book into the shelf that you pull on to open the door too? Because I would totally do that.

Thanks to that Murder Shows song, I now realize what my life has been missing all these years: Chloe Fineman in a short wig, low-cut dress and thigh-high boots. Yowza.

Wait, really? That was the joke? I didn’t get that was supposed to be his last name at all. That whole sketch was just a disaster, including with the live audience-- you kept hearing them titter like they were expecting the joke to land any second, but it never does.
