For what it's worth, Vince said on the BCS podcast back in season 1 that he literally had a PA create a supercut of every single scene with Saul across the entirety of Breaking Bad that the writers room reviewed repeatedly to mine for details both big and small when breaking out the show originally.

"I have learned to ignore the grades and just evaluate the contents of
the review, but it still bugs that they've destroyed the utility of
their grading scale for no reason."

I live in the US, and I honestly have no idea what you're talking about. I've never heard anyone distinguish between Kraft singles and American cheese in a general sense. In fact, Kraft singles are the first thing that come to mind when I think "American cheese".

"Cheese food" (strictly speaking, "pasteurized processed cheese food") doesn't mean it's not cheese, it just means that there's emulsifiers, milk or cream, other spices, and a few other minor elements added alongside (and the law spells out exactly what those minor elements can be), that it has a certain moisture…

At one point it was good; James Kraft invented the original form as essentially a version of cheddar that was processed to have a smoother, more even melt in cooking without separation. But industrialization pushed speed over quality like they always do, and now you've got the bland vaguely cheese-ish plastic that is…

If all the drill did was make you pronounce "Reese's" wrong, you're a lucky fellow.

You've never heard someone say "Ree-sees Pee-sees" for the name of that, I see.

Denise is basically just a fictionalized version of Lena Waithe, though, and Waithe based the entire coming out conversation on the conversation she actually had with her mother. That's how it actually happened to her in real life.

Oh haha, I'm sorry; now I feel a little bad. No offense intended, I hope it didn't come across that way!

Haha, wow. Thanks, I'd missed that one. What a weird reaction to Mega Man.

Wait what's this you're implying about a darker Mega Man reboot? Did I miss an announcement or something?

I'm not necessarily objecting to your sentiment. I'm just saying wouldn't something like "Master of No Laughs" flow better? "None Laughs" makes no sense. :P

The title isn't supposed to be an "Only In New York!" thing. The title's because it was based on "Paris, je t'aime", a French film that was the same concept as this episode but in Paris.

I don't think it was. The episode was based on the movie "Paris, je t'aime" which was essentially exactly the same as this episode but in Paris; "Paris, I Love You" in English.

"None Laughs"?

Yep, he is.

On one hand, you're right, this is utterly unprofessional in every related field to go through this sort of indirect, distant analysis.

Apparently, it's because of diplomatic pressure from Ecuador.

They dropped Rabin recently and cut My Year of Flops because it wasn't getting enough traffic, so I'd imagine so.

If that was from an RPG book, shouldn't the book itself have answered that?
