You can tell that the person who wrote this article is a child, because of course you saw Soul Man if you had Comedy Central in the ‘90s. It played constantly.

Is this where the “David Puddy is religious” storyline came from?

Probably the chat and cut. In college I missed seeing a sneak preview of “Mean Girls” that I had waited an hour in line for because some people chatted and cut.

Should there ever be one, Tom Lehrer has the theme song covered:

Hell’s Ironic Punishment Division should sort those writers out.

Why has there been total silence on the new season of Curb Your Enthusiasm? I thought it had already been filmed. The last season was two years ago. They clearly don’t need to wait for the strike to be resolved to announce a release date.

Follow the link. The Scorsese quote is not in response to a question about intermissions. He was not asked about intermissions in the interview. He’s defending the decision to make a 3.5 hour theatrical release, not complaining about the issue at hand, theaters putting in a pee break. I don’t know why the quote is incl…

If you read the original interview where AV Club pulled the quote from, you’ll see that Scorsese is not complaining about intermissions. Intermissions are never brought up. He is answering a question about whether Killers of the Flower Moon should have been released in theaters at all because of the length. The…

JFC. Hasan Minhaj’s prom story isn’t just a bit from a standup special. It’s included in a collection of stories entitled “All These Wonders: True Stories About Facing the Unknown,” published by the Moth, the non-profit that promotes true storytelling. Minhaj accepted an award from the Moth earlier this year. He knows…

I understand the distinction that FloggyBottom is making. Gene Wilder’s Wonka is “magical” in the sense that he’s so creative and brilliant at making candy that his products have properties that are inconceivable to everyone else in the industry. But he’s not a literal wizard. The fake Slugworth asks Charlie to steal a…

When did AV Club stop covering 30 for 30?

How about Cat Stevens' Moonshadow?

I finally found the right snack

Definitely not just an off-night for Echo and the Bunnymen. I saw them at the Black Cat in DC about five years ago and McCulloch was incoherent and sounded horrible.

I didn't follow the reviews for Season 1 so this might be an obvious and super-old observation, but it's funny that the logo of We Got Y'all is black kids in the palm of a big white hand.

Looking it up on IMDB it's a whole lotta gray silhouettes next to the main cast. I remember the friends being way better actors than the kids in the main family, so it's good to see her back.

It turns out Tiffany is played by the cute sister's quirky sidekick from the short-lived Nickelodeon sitcom My Brother And Me. I didn't think anybody from that show ever worked again.

I've seen a Muppet Christmas Carol so many times that I forget that Jacob Marley is just one ghost and not two ghosts in the form of Statler and Waldorf.
