Given that a Venn diagram of "occupants of a children's cancer ward" and "AV Clubbers" is not exactly going to have a lot of people in the middle, I'm going to say "not many".

On the other hand, Mortdecai.

I saw an episode of Rules of Engagement for the first time the other day.

Well, two robots, one of which was a Mormon.

The A.V. Club
You had me at "Maybe stay home"

Don't bother reading Catcher in the Rye. It is really, really shit.

In space, no-one can hear you be rude!

But Donald Trump's toupees are very difficult to come by.

I dunno, it's possible for it to both a) upset Gwyneth Paltrow and b) upset everyone else too.
