The appeal of Tower was that they would stock obscure, hard-to-find things that no one else did. The Internet also serves this purpose, with or without Tower. While I’ve missed the brand, this feels redundant.

THE NEW NETFLIX:
If you don’t like rom-coms,
sucks to be you

Bah. It’s old enough that they could get it on Switch if they tried.

I can’t see Don Knotts making decisions this evil, though...

It’s never been defined where it takes place. The setting is a parody of the Coney Island area.

It actually says “The 12th DATE Of Christmas.” I’m guessing the more popular way to say it was already taken.

Friggin’ Mary. After the one-two punch of this and American Pie, Hollywood comedies squarely focused on ultra-raunchy poop and jizz jokes for what felt like an eternity. If I’m grossed out, I’m not laughing.

I remember Howie Mandel making a similar joke, “Seeing Ryan’s Privates,” in a promo for his talk show and I instantly hated the show. It only lasted one season.

There wasn’t. it’s the same school. I think someone just didn’t remember the Looniversity, thought it was new, and assumed it was a college, and that misinformation just spread around.

That’s what you call “having a Barsanti moment.”

It was intentional; Kelley’s thinking was that no one would take moralistic superheroes (in the Superman mold) seriously anymore and that Diana had to be more of an antihero to work with a modern audience. We’re talking 2000s modern, here.

Here’s what’s really going on: a “success” for The CW would be considered a failure on any other network. The standards are lower, so the shows last longer.

An IGN writer seemed to think it was because all the monkeys were Black, and....I never got that out of it. I think if that’s what you’re seeing there, you are probably racist yourself.

The anti-Semite thing has never been proven. Anti-union, definitely. Misogynist, maybe (the old company had a club only men could join).

I disagree....we need at least five Aubreys.

There was not enough Xan on that show. Not nearly enough.

The easy answer is “because most royalty stories are escapist fantasy and you’re not supposed to think about it, just get lost in it.” Remember: this is also a world where monarchies work.

If there’s anybody out there who doesn’t hate Angela Anaconda with a passion, I hate yet to meet them.

I seem to be the only one on the Internet who has actually seen the episode. I dare anyone here to try to make it through that one -- the Jimmy Rebel character utters some of the most racist sentences I’ve ever heard in my life. In song. And it was banned well before this — it only aired once.

I remember when Polley was Ramona.
