This is like when your shitty father is too busy at the track so your grandparents step in to make sure you’ve got clothes for school and food and shelter during a hurricane.

To be fair, while you may miss the Mackey conversations I strongly suspect you’ll still be attacked by the Rednecks for being a ‘cisgender boy’ just as if you were a ‘transgender girl’ (it’s the approach Parker and Stone usually take with their Redneck characters, as shown regarding races/racists in ‘With Apologies to…

And catholics, protestants, atheists, agnostics - everyone got a whack of the stick.

Any way you can fix a ‘What’s On Tonight’ logo over the header image each time? Like io9 do with their ‘Morning Spoilers’. This is a good category, I’d like to be able to more easily find it each day.

It’s that old story/joke/fable about the family in danger from flooding/fire/insert your crisis ignoring help from passers-by because they believe God will save them, and when they die and ask God why he didn’t save them he says he tried, he sent all those passers-by...

Is THAT what he said? I couldn’t make it out, it sounded like gibberish to me (because, well, why WOULD he say ‘cliffhanger’? The rest of the show - particularly the Terror - hasn’t been that meta).

There’s a similar story behind Kalpen Modi, or ‘Kal Penn’; he didn’t believe what he’d heard that anglicising his name would improve his chances, but he tried it on a whim and his auditions TRIPLED.

Hey, I’m on your side, but claiming the moral high ground like you do with ‘because I am a caring person who believes everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect’ isn’t going to get you into conversation with anyone who’s actually fallen for Trump’s BS.  

I agree... although actually I feel like it’s the kind of attitude BoJack would have the other way around. Maybe the episode would have been better if the initial roles were reversed, so BoJack was the one trying to reclaim the muffins. He could have more obviously been umming and ahhing about them, then got annoyed…

For the man behind Butterfield Direct and O News he has a strange attitude towards ‘parodies’.

I think it’s just a natural nervous response, they can’t help it. You know, like a spasm of some kind.

Yeah, he became pretty unbearable for me around season 3. He doesn’t get any better, but he does get less intrusive (he’s pretty much been relegated to the sidelines for the last few seasons, so he’s a lot easier to ignore).

It’s not a flag of the South though - it’s a flag of the Confederacy. Furthermore it is the BATTLE flag of the Confederacy. It is not representative of peace, it is representative of fighting to keep slaves.

Most of these aren’t revamps, they’re reboots or remakes. A better list would have been franchises that changed direction/setup during their run. An example would be Angel season 5; a slight change of cast with a massive change of setting, putting the team in charge of the law firm they’d been fighting against for…

I still think 'mistakes' is appropriate. People get led astray. They find themselves in new circumstances, and they change, they don't know how to handle it. We know very little about what went on, and it's all pretty much unverified outside one not-altogether-unbiased source. If he did do what she accuses, then it…

I always thought Joss was a great writer. And based on interviews and reports I thought he seemed like a considerate, compassionate guy. Nothing has yet dissuaded me from those opinions. Even if he's made mistakes both professionally and personally, who hasn't, who doesn't? If you thought he was perfect in either…

Right. Better not to laud positive ideals at all than to be a hypocrite.

Have a national 'Burn a Nazi' day. Like Guy Fawkes night, but you burn Hitler or Goering (you can vary it with others - I'm sure many would burn Trump - but you set Hitler as your baseline). Make it a nationwide recognition that Nazis are BAD, because some people clearly aren't getting the message.

They should just call it 'Obi Wan', that'll leave them open to make 'Obi Two' and 'Obi Three'.

This is probably going to be terrible, but it should still be entertaining, at least for a few episodes.
