It really is great. Looking forward to her new album this summer.

Full Force Galesburg is my favorite of their 90s albums and prob in my top 5 overall.

The last half of this season dragged terribly and seemed to repeat character beats over and over (Lito's coming out should have been like 2-3 episodes tops…..not stretched out over 2 whole seasons. It was just not interesting or well written enough to warrant that. And if I have to listen to another hamfisted,…

This describes every film that Haynes has ever made: "I’ve had trouble shaking the feeling, in the few hours since the credits rolled, that it’s more of an exercise than a movie—a lovingly crafted flashback pastiche whose emotional core remains oddly theoretical."

Yeah, impulse control is a huge thing with autism. Anything with executive functioning is an issue.

It really didn't work for Boardwalk. It was jarring and odd and basically just seemed like what it was: the producers getting tired of the show and deciding they wanted to wrap it up abruptly.

I've always suspected the Deadwood movie, if it happens, would be narrowly focused on a few characters, with most of the larger cast relegated to the background. I don't see how they could possibly wrap things up, while covering all the characters, in just 2-3 hours. The best thing would be if they just pick 2 or 3…

Yeah, the show's politics are really grating on me this season. I'm a gay liberal, so you'd think I'd be more sympathetic. It's just that the show's treatment of politics is so hamfisted and 1 dimensional. I may agree with the message, but it's dealt with in such an uninteresting fashion that it gets boring. It…

Starwipe was funny, but I always forgot it existed.

Anyone hear yet if there will be another season? MST3K isn't really binge TV for me in the way of some other Netflix shows, but I've been greatly enjoying watching like 2 episodes per week, in 45 min chunks, before I go to bed.

They are an odd band in that I love them, despite every single song of theirs (since Boxer, anyway) sounding the exact same.

Season 1 was odd. It starts out so awkwardly and takes so long to get started, but those last 4 episodes……unlike anything on TV ever.

Eh, I find their relationship so cutesy as to be unrealistic. No one acts like that for long in a relationship, and if they do, they are annoying to be around.

It's a BBC tradition that Sense8 adopted for some reason (tons of British shows have Christmas specials). They usually have nothing to do with Christmas other than, perhaps, Christmas being in the background. That was true of the Sense8 special as well.

I was shocked to find out he's only 47. He looks 60 in that photo.

Birbiglia's "funny for NPR," which translates to "not funny at all" outside of contexts where Garrison Keiller, David Sedaris, Paula Poundstone, and cheeky puns don't constitute "laugh every 30 seconds" levels of hilarity.

Prior has lots of stuff that didn't age well. In fact, comedy in general doesn't age terribly well. I actually think it's the personal stuff that tends to age better, though. The autobiographical stories and the like.

This show is the best looking TV show I've ever seen, by far. The best shows tend to have a well directed episode, or scene or two, but tend to revert to just mediocre functionality in most cases. Every scene of this series feels fussed over and constructed, though. It's like watching a 10 hour film directed by…

See "She's Gotta Have it" and get back to me.

It seems to provoke extreme reactions, but I've watched the whole thing twice in the last year. To me it's the third best comedy released this decade, behind only "Broad City" and "Rick and Morty."
