Instantly forgettable, though, hey-o

It’s sizing up to be a 10-episode season with about 4 episodes worth of plot.

Nope, you’re not alone. She is not my favorite actress. I was OK with her in season 1 because her arc worked (thanks also in large part to Natasha Rothwell’s criminally under-rated work) because it had depth and resonance. But in season 2 her schtick wore very thin very quickly.

It also defies logic that Ethan would worry about adhering to bro-code with a guy he KNOWS is just after his money AND his wife has just confirmed to be a cheating philanderer. I’d have preferred they flipped the script here and had Ethan and Harper strengthen their somewhat awkward marriage by uniting and scheming to…

This big gap between Season One and Season Two of shows these days is killing me. But, of course, I’ll take it because Sherman’s Showcase is fucking hilarious with some good “inside” jokes.

While not in great number, that’s not exactly true.. A few spring to mind right away...

You are wrong about this. There were plenty of POC knocking about the royal courts of Medieval Europe, including that of England. They were commonly referred to as “Moors.” The most famous in England was probably Pedro de Negro, a Cavalryman and Musketeer who was in the court of Henry IIIV and his successors, but he…

At this point I think Jesus is wearing a neck brace from all the head shaking he does at the human race’s actions. This is pretty low on the chart of things we’ve done that’s petty and stupid.

One of my thoughts when I saw the trailer was ‘A movie length video game cutscene...big whoop’.

He should’ve won for Django. Don’t get me wrong, I love Christoph Waltz, but he didn’t bring anything new or terribly compelling to his role, while Jackson’s portrayal of Stephen was incredible and nuanced and full of such complicated history in the portrayal of an enslaved person in the chattel system who functions…

“Prince’s estate has been mired in questions and yes, controversy,”

Pratt Wife 2.0 looks at Chris the same way my sister’s dog looks at me when I have Beggin Strips in my hand.

Glad you listened to it so I don’t have to 

What a coincidence, the previous 76ers backup center is a terrible dad who proved that not all cape-wearers are heroes!

Me too. Not to get to into the internet weeds but the incest space baby is exactly the type of thing that reviewers (like Zack!) complained about because they figured it was just a random one off absurd/gross gag that would get no pay off. So I love the move of having it pay off big time so quickly

It’s not that Zack doesn’t get it, it’s that he’s openly, blatantly nostalgic for earlier seasons and the quote-endquote classic episodes. I said in the thread for last week’s episode that it feels like he’s getting burnt out on these reviews, and this week’s review just feels like that impression getting cemented.…

Yeah, I think this episode answered a question I’ve seen many places . . . why, in all the multiverses, do all the Ricks hang out with Mortys instead of Summers.
And yeah, this is why. Morty balances Rick, but Summer + Rick reinforces the worst of both. Summer’s hedonism acts as a Rick multiplier, and Rick’s…

The more I read these reviews, the more I’m convinced that they got someone who fundamentally doesn’t *get* the series to write them. Like, imagine if you got someone who *really* didn’t get Star Trek to write new Star Trek movies, or someone who thought they understood Star Wars but wildly didn’t to helm an entire…

Idk, I loved this episode. Loved the continuity with the incest baby of all things, loved the framing device, loved the divergence in how Morty and Summer differently take after Rick. Also given how beautiful and chiseled those Go-Tron transformations were, somebody on the animation team had to be happy like a pig in…

How many “Rick fucks something and Morty fucks something and Summer fucks something” episodes are we going to have?
