Congress should already be negotiating more stimulus checks, extended unemployment increases, and eviction protections. That’s the consequence of partying. Americans will never care about this, so it’s going to last years. My guess is that we’re less than halfway through.

I’m in a niche band that performs at small festival events in our area, and we’re looking at the hopeful chance to perform for the first time since... 2019?

My internal reaction upon hearing he had been rushed to the hospital made it clear to me just how unprepared I am to live in an Odenkirkless world. The amount of shock alongside the heartbreak was like Chadwick Boseman all over again. Some people just seem like they’ll always be around.

So glad Bob’s on the mend, and…

That’s awesome. I’m sure that Bob appreciates David’s support while the former is in the hospital. David sure did when the tables were turned.

I cannot think of many sitcoms that don’t run into the issue of the main characters being terrible human beings. Even if things start out normal and relatable enough, a couple seasons in everyone becomes horrifyingly distorted. The fourth season of “Community” when Dan Harmon was gone was (sometimes rightfully)…

There’s a huge difference between the guy you think playfully pantsed a priest to cheer you up and the guy who loses all your money then lies about it, gets you fired for your job, makes you beg for the car keys, and calls the police on you, that will never allow you to get your own way to have your needs and desires…

That little peek into Sam’s life was illuminating. It served as an interesting mirror to Allison’s situation and would explain why he thought their trysts were more than just casual sex. He needs emotional fulfillment just as much as Allison does, and Jenn and her purse string-clutching parents aren’t providing it,…

I mean, dude literally harrassed her boss to get her fired and called the cops on her when she took the car because her autonomy feels threatening. The entire previous episode establishes how controlling he is over the little stuff.

I mean, in the end that’s part of the issue with sitcoms in general: The men are these overgrown children causing all sorts of outlandish trouble making life for the family hell. But then there are these moments sprinkled in that makes the audience go “Aww, they really do love each other!” That’s calculated sitcom…

I still haven’t seen how he’s earned the description Allison paints him as, enough to the point of murder.

I agree that I don’t want to see Patty and Allison having a romantic relationship. As the reviewer said, they both need a friend more than anything else; and I worry that romance might undermine the Bechdel-test-in-a-sitcom work that it’s doing.

Oh yeah, give it a watch if you are fond of whimsy and Barry Sonnenfeld’s visual style. It might just make your summer better.

Can I just say how fantastic the posters were for 90s Disney films?  Beauty and the Beast, Lion King and Hunchback have such good posters.  I like a lot of modern Disney animated films but posters?  Nope. 

Mrs Potts, Lumiere, Cogsworth, such great supporting characters are becoming something of a lost art for Disney.

Paddington Bear will do the trick. Even the children's books lifted me up back in the day. 

I just watched The Rescuers movies with my daughter, and holy shit does that opening sequence of Down Under ever hold up. 

Good Place, My Name is Earl, Raising Hope

I’m a huge fan of Beauty and the Beast, the Disney animated feature. I always just feel better after watching it.
