The Cleveland Show cast was actually pretty diverse. Just not the main character. 

It seems to be way, way more common and accepted for different gender voice actors than different race actors. Also seems true for sketch comedy. Black/yellow/brownface is bad, drag is OK and can even be a joke on its own.

I want to know why people voicing characters of other races is a problem. I know that sounds trolling but I’m sincere.

The Apprentice tapes, even if they exist, will change nothing. Trump will declare them deep fakes, and everyone inclined to go along with his presidency will either openly agree or claim that they can’t be sure.

When the hell are those N-Word tapes from The Apprentice going to get leaked??

Yup - they could do something like Amy struggling with whether to report one of her patrolmen to Holt, out of fear she’ll lose the support of her team...but ultimately deciding to do the right thing, with Holt coming down with the Wrath of God.

Hitchcock and Sully may look incompetent to the casual viewer but it’s been established in previous episodes that they worked hard to get to the position they are now.

When they get CSI, NCIS, Law & Order and the myriad other Dick Wolf spawns (gods that name) to stop producing abusive cop porn, there’s more ground to stand on than a low hanging fruit produced by a staff that actually seems to care (donations to bail fund, statements from actors/producers/writers) about the issues…

Sorry, just laughing over the idea that a sitcom like Friends should have referenced September 11th.

But...why? Unless the next season of Brooklyn Nine Nine had taken a very strange turn and involved the characters choking some black guy to death making a joke out of it, but I don’t really see that being the case. To be honest the idea that B99 needs to do anything other than come to an end because it’s well past its…

I think it’s less about fetishizing the folksy blue-collar folks and more a cynical exhaustion with the rest of the world and the more powerful that more or less run it (banks/corporations/tech bros/the GOP/the Dems, basically substitute whatever you feel is ruining the country here) and dreaming that surely, surelysom…

I am a boring-ass East Coast liberal. Politically, I am indistinguishable from someone’s aunt upstate who’s an amateur beekeeper and still has a John Kerry bumper sticker on her minivan. But even I find this movie embarrassing.

You know that there are people who aren’t conservatives (me, for instance) who feel that we’re over-correcting and don’t agree with erasure, right?

Cereal as an ice cream topping was a revelation. I haven’t partaken of it too much since I discovered that trick, but it really is the best thing to liven up any ice cream that doesn’t already have mix ins...

I have two friends whose daughters both lied about their age to try to get close to celebrities, one was 16 and one was 17, and in both cases, the girls were the pursuer once they got their foot in the door. One never get close enough to her intended target and the other had her purse searched by one of the…

I know you said films, but I gotta say the idealism of The West Wing is nigh-unwatchable these days. 

Wag the Dog is a precursor to Veep as fodder for a certain type of patronizing DC type who would try to shock people with something along the lines of “Of course you don’t realize this, but things like this happen all the time.”

I saw it when it opened and did not seem exaggerated even then.

Please. If he loses and lives to 2024, he’ll try to Cleveland it. If he loses and dies, fucking Junior runs.

I’m thinking of the TV series ‘Scandal’ the story of a Republican president who wants to do the right thing while in office. Yeh, right, sure. Jerry Ford was a good forty six years ago.
