"Dana Carvey proves he still holds the impression-king crown."

I understand the argument but I don't think it applies here.

Considering the events in Dallas last night, it seems like a more careful and articulate headline could have been chosen. You know, because shootings of police literally occurred yesterday, and this headline is referring to shooting by police.

It's irrelevant if she's an awful person. It's not like anyone is arguing that because she has been sexually harassed at work, she is suddenly a great journalist.

The difference is that humor is a pleasant occasional side effect in Apples to Apples while it's the goal of the game in CAH.

The jokes (the red cards) in Red Flags seem painfully unfunny, the typical result of when someone who isn't funny tries to be funny.

It's true. Nothing that GJI publishes will ever sink as low as "Guy doing family guy impressions while singing uptown funk" http://www.avclub.com/artic…

I find most mash-ups to be pretty lazy and uninteresting, and I think that's pretty much the case here.

There was an issue not too long ago that had Lena Dunham providing a comedy article. It was something like "10 ways your boyfriend is like your cat." I was convinced it was an astute satire on buzzfeed style listicles, or SOMETHING, ANYTHING. But nope, it was just a dreadful comedy piece that the New Yorker published

GJI: This kid celebrates his Star Wars love with an imaginary light saber battle.

If the internet has taught me anything, it's that nothing is too stupid or trivial to be fake.

Usually overpowering fan hatred stems from big-market teams being an unstoppable juggernaut, and the Yankees haven't been that for a while now and certainly not since George Steinbrenner passed away. The last world series they

"When it comes to the New York Yankees, there are only two types of people; Yankees fans and people who hate the Yankees with the fire of a thousand burning suns."

They obviously do not, but in defense of this particular selection, the entire contest on which the premise is built around is done on social media online. But the standard for this incredibly lazy feature is so low that that's probably just a coincidence.

Adding Yakety Sax music to a chase scene is just behind adding fart noises to a dramatic scene in the category of extremely stale joke ideas.

The radiolab episode mentioned (debatable) was incredible and fascinating. A great example of how journalism can make a niche subject incredibly interesting and relevant.
My only major gripe is that the story is presented in a pretty one-sided fashion and I don't think the issue at the heart of the story is an open

I've tried to listen to Yo, Is This Racist? because it seemed like an interesting premise with a lot of comedic potential but the 2 episodes I've listened to were extraordinarily terrible IMO; pretty humorless and felt pretty lazy.

I feel like the AV club is missing the pretty important ending of the Fusion article:
