I visited there a couple years ago, as a stop on a little tour of New England, and found the whole thing weird, there was a very weak Halloween parade and we took a terrible tour of "places where witch things happened but have since been torn down so now it's some other building."

Yeah, I really felt like I took it much more sanely this time…season 2 fell on a weekend where I worked Saturday and so I remember just being zombie trying to pack them away late in to the night. This time it was a couple Friday, a few more Saturday with a break and then a few more, and then the rest on Sunday. It was…

Thanks for explaining it because I was wondering since I don't know anything about recording digital or otherwise!

See, I think Caesar isn't 100% garbage, I really like how he's portrayed as clearly unhinged and a criminal but still willing to take care of a bunch of kids, some that aren't even his, while usually a man like him would be portrayed as a deadbeat who totally abandons his kids. He clearly doesn't know anything about…

I think it was a little bit of both…disappointment that it was just more of the same for her and nothing greater but also a certain happiness that it's an environment she's very comfortable and knowledgeable about (letting her feel superior to the other sewing newbies.) I think it's an even better scene in that it…

Manson: The Life and Times of Charles Manson by Jeff Guin.

I'm pretty sure that's the case, so everyone was quite aware it was just a suburb not Hickville, just thought the name was funny is all.

It really is perfect in that 30 Rock had run out of story to tell but I cannot get enough of their brand of humor, so the fact that they could just inject that directly into a new show (not on a network, so even better and freer) was just the best!

I liked Dong (because the actor is cute and he did seem like a good mate for Kimmie since they were both kind of sheltered and innocent for their age) but they would definitely need to rework the charterer so he is more than a neutered hardworking Asian good at math with a "funny" name. I think they tried to make it…

I found him a little annoying and hammy for much of his part but I did find his continued shooting of heroin pretty funny.

I am a little bit of a Manson freak so of course I read Helter Skelter but it's too long and dry to be considered the classic that it is, it's just too bogged down in the legal maneuvering (which is understandable considering the author.) Good True Crime is more focused on the crime itself and the motivations of the…

I think what Dan meant is that if you start seeing someone while you're still married (be it cheating or in an open scenario) it's common to idealize that new person because they lack the baggage of your everyday life and responsibilities and while they may be a better match for you, it's worth taking a step back and…

I don't think it was trying to say much but I'm sure the "men = dogs" was supposed to cross your mind, as they were doing a typical "dog" by being entertained by strippers but the dog bride upended that and it turned out it was just being absurd, which I think made it funnier.

I think Max had moments of being likable (giving the other queens pep talks) but in taking her persona so seriously, it made it seem like she was taking herself too seriously, and that's one of the worse offenses, I think, in terms of being likable (or a successful reality show character, which is kind of it's own…

I read somewhere she identifies as genderqueer which is great, it's the perfect time for someone who is not just playing with the aestetic (which Raja did/does) but is also willing to be a representative/advocate, which she has said she plans to do. I said "in a cool way" because, in my personal opinion, sometimes not…

I don't even think the shade was the problem, people love plenty of shady queens, but just that she let the seems show in her really trying to play the game and the more that started to show (especially in Untucked) the more Violet's refusal to play the game and reflected positively on her, making her more likable by…

I would argue they meant if her shade was funnier. She could clearly do comedy.

I think there is something so painfully "theater kid" about it that those of us who find theater kids exhausting have a negative reaction. Obviously, lots of drag queens have theater backgrounds but Max was wearing that shit on her sleeve (I dislike Jinkx for the same reason!)

I would say, that for me at least, there is humor is the way Alaska talks, but you're right it's just as put-on. Max didn't mine any humor from her accent or the old timey persona and while that's fine, it did make it quite easy for them to edit her as a self important stick in the mud.

Yeah, Tyra wasn't a fashion queen, she was more like a pageant queen (although I'm not sure she did the pageant circuit.) She had a very narrow, traditional (albeit beautiful) drag style. Also, did Tyra excel at design? I actually rewatched that season recently but can't remember. But Violet definitely can design, and…
