Imagine Max Greenfield saying "SUNY New Paltz" with some kind of hand gesture. Gold.

Wet Hot. Inside Out. Possibly Blades of Glory if that's your bag.
This is how I felt about The Little Hours, and how I feel about Netflix's Love and a lot of these similar movies (Sisters). It's soft comedy - comedic actors either improvising raunchy or taking a light-dramatic tone. I want 21 Jump Streets and The Other Guys, even. Quotable. Worthy of laughter, AUDIBLE, OUT-LOUD…
It's hard for me to motivate myself to listen to a June-less episode. Really hard.
I would donate whatever those three wanted for them to do an episode on I Hate Valentine's Day, a movie where one character opens a scene by walking into a restaurant and proclaiming "I want to have sex with you!" verbatim. One of the most confounding cinematic experiences of my life. Maybe the most.
Hey! Sleeping With Other People is fantastic!
I love Sterling Mallory Archer's middle name so much I sometimes use it to admonish people who do not have a middle name.
How did you feel about the Sound of Music? I'd say the crisis of faith really only hits that level. The show is irreverent but if you can deal with holy people questioning the existence of a god in tragedy you'll be fine. It's such a humanist show, I absolutely recommend it.
Wait until the end of the final episode. I may have thrown my laptop. SO SO SO good.
The first half didn't do much for me. The second half is some of the best television I've seen in the last 5 years.
I've seen the whole show, and I think religion was handled REALLY well. You see the conservative clergy types that give Catholicism a bad name and then several characters who question and doubt their faith and some who leave some constructs of faith behind but wholeheartedly embrace others. I think it's the most…
ABSOLUTELY evocative of the Cornetto trilogy. That was my first comparison.
I watched the British version and the American president is a character developed outside of the video clips, so it's likely not to have converted.
As much as I love the show, it also brought me DOWN. (I've seen the entire thing). They completely acknowledge the tragedy of it, which makes for some beautiful late-season drama. Jenna Fischer KILLS it.
I ripped all of the episodes from British TV and wound up staying up until 2am to finish. WHAT. A SHOW. Can't recommend the last 5 episodes enough. This is my, albeit early, pick of the year. Just adored the way everything came together.
I'm more excited for Alicia to kiss Jason just so I have the visual of Bearded JDM smooching a pale brunette than for them to have a romance. Last season, we had a botched Finn romance (which actually worked well to illuminate Alicia's bungled priorities and should have been treated as more of a dull, but noticed,…
They definitely need a writer-director, and can possibly make it interesting by getting an excellent writer who has limited directorial experience. That would create dramatic stakes for Greenlight and also allowing us to learn alongside a director-in-the-making. Jason kept telling us he WAS a director and we learned…
I've been getting that same vibe!! I'm glad I'm not alone. However, I am of course totally comparing the two and there's no question that D'Onofrio fucking crushed almost every actor in the drama game, where Vaughn's seems forgettable already. Michael Shannon might have been a better choice here.
I think they may do what I thought might happen for Bianca last year - that she was eliminated so they can bring her back for All Stars and get two seasons of a likable, funny queen that people rallied around after getting the undeserved boot. We'll see her again, without question.
Oh, JESUS CHRIST, Carell?!?! Yes. YES.
