Bonnie Bedelia really had a particular slot on lockdown in the eighties and nineties: "to some-degree-estranged wife of main character who's just domestic enough to represent safety and predictability, just strong and sympathetic enough to have agency, and just sexy enough to make him look like an idiot for fucking…

That was the first time I genuinely really, really liked the musical act on SNL in…good christ, it might even be a decade. They even sounded a bit like something that would've been on in the seventies. I will totally check out their stuff.
As someone who grew up on the Eagles, the Sixers, and the Phillies, I approve.
Normally, I chuckle at the nitpickers and overcriticizers over a show as chaotic and rompy Doctor Who, in all its incarnations - but any negativity this episode may collect is fully deserved. That was quite possibly the laziest, most poorly-motivated, cliche-ridden piece of flat hackwork I have ever seen in a DW…

Honestly, I love that whole cast. Great, great choices.
PUT. THAT. UKELELE. DOWN.

NBC's late-night bizarro, expect-anything-and-get-it music show Night Music, from the mid-to-late eighties. Though there was a focus on progressive and avant-garde jazz, the show had everything, from Sonny Rollins and Miles Davis to the Pixies and Bongwater to Conway Twitty and the Residents (that episode has to be…
My friend has that book! And it is a fantastically entertaining read.
I was inspired to look up Earthbound cart values…holy shit. Don't expect to drop less than 200 bucks. Anyway, look up "SNES emulator" and "SNES ROMs".
Was that from the eighties black-and-white boom, or the nineties self-publishing era? God, what good times to be an impressionable kid reading comics.
YouTube has the whole movie!
I saw the original short on Night Flight - a show that, because of its compilation nature, will probably never, ever be released in full in legit form.
WOW. This is what I get for not checking GOG regularly - I got spoiled for that big, triumphant SHODAN atop the homepage right now.
Stray Bullets is one of my favorite comics ever. It's a legitimate goddamn masterpiece of crime fiction, and it's a terrible shame that it isn't easily available (or even finished!). Even though I keep all the issues of my almost-complete run in the "I'm not lending it, you can only read this at my place" box, I get…
Where's our movie about young, anguished, ugly supernatural teens?

They've run the numbers, and "angsty passivity" has been consistently making a killing in the demo.
