I understand feeling like HLTW is overplayed and souring on it, but there’s no way a list of Duran Duran’s best work could present itself seriously without having that song ranked, let alone not in the top 5.

How I’m reading this is that the movie’s turned out to be a respectful and sensitive telling of this piece of Osage history. It sounds like it’s imperfect, which really is a given with an Italian American director (albeit an amazing one) rather than an Osage director at the helm. The Osage quoted seem to have some…

*glances at runtime*

Amy Ryan also didn’t have a ton of screen time and wasn’t clearly a suspect until close to the end - other than those who were playing the classic Law & Order game of “the most famous person probably did it.”

This is quite literally the definition of fuck around and find out.  Idiots.  I commented about this happening 6 months ago on this very site.  These Idaho morons will soon be without a single OBGYN in their entire state and they’ll have to travel to the dreaded Blue State of Washington for all their female care. …

I’m pretty sure Cliff did the elevator push. The hankie Ben was holding, seen at the end of episode 7, had red blotches on it. One of the only things we know about Cliff is that his mother kisses him on the lips. He used the hankie to wipe the lipstick off.

Which of the Pickwick triplets did it?

Fuck these people.

Ah, good thing Melanie has her insurance policy (son) so she can continue to live her lifestyle. Barron’s a stupid name, BTW. 

I...huh. K.

Not even reading this hack list because I see you’ve included Grease 2

I’m not going to argue that Grease II is an overlooked gem or that it isn’t a large downgrade from the original, but it isn’t a bad film either. Certainly better than most of the others on the list. The whole secret identity “Cool Rider” subplot is a bit silly, but at least they tried something a little bit different…

I get what you’re trying to say, but you DO realize that’s exactly how most jobs work, right?

I put myself through college as a grocery checker, back in the day when we had a union and had to do stuff like memorize produce codes and had scanning time quotas and bonuses. I prefer self-checkout because I’m faster and more accurate and I actually pay attention when that buy 2/get 1 free promotion isn’t applied.

I like making the machine go “beep”.

I’m thinking Loretta is Ben’s mother, perhaps having given him up because she desperately wanted an acting career, or perhaps, more darkly, if a producer or someone took advantage of a young desperate actress.
At the table reading in the first episode Ben gets a “strong energy” from Loretta - perhaps somehow…

My theory after episode 3still holds!

“As much as I hate to say it, because I love him.... I think Howard is the killer, doing it to help his lover get the leading role. I mean, he’s very gung ho about helping the show succeed as Oliver assistant, but there’s a few other things so far, too. 1. Someone questioned why he…

Needs more Martin.

For the love of Christ! Fight in front of C-SPANs cameras!

As for “Push,” Thomas recognizes that it’s a song with some issues, saying that “the ‘90s was a time of manufactured angst” and that nobody “wanted to be a victim in a song,” so he ended up with these lyrics about “emotional manipulation” and how it’s “so much easier to find someone you can take advantage of than…
