From your lips to the old Democrat guard’s ear. I fear we’re stuck with Biden until he literally keels over.

That went worse than I even considered, and I’m a pretty negative guy.
He was the best part of the episode.
Doesn’t even have to be family. At my company, for lower level positions, we have an informal default that if someone else on staff refers you, you automatically get a phone interview. Whether that results in a second round interview and the job is another matter, but there are definitely candidates we might have…
Oh I’m with you. Being a nepo baby gets you in the door, sure, but you still have to do the work, or you wind up a joke like Tori Spelling.
In that header image, Zac Efron looks older than Nicole Kidman.
Why is he weird? Because he happens to be talented and proven that he’s more than his family connections? Because again, sort of the point.
We come to this streamer, because we’re bored. We come to Netflix to scroll, to ignore, to get background noise. Because we need that, all of us. That indescribable feeling we get when we “Skip Intro,” and we go somewhere we’ve been 472,000 times before, like another binge through “Kimmy Schmidt.”
Ah. The return of the Gentleman’s F. Welcome back, old friend.
What is funny about all this is that it ignores the fact that it’s quite common for people to go into the “family” business. Sure some people have ambition to not do what their parents do but for many it just makes sense to do the same job.
Not to mention people seem to think nepotism is just a Hollywood thing. People get jobs because of who their relatives are all the time. I would wager more then 50% of jobs world wide come less from your skills and more from who you know.
And how many times do we have to tell AV Club writers that there's always MONEY IN THE BANANA STAND?!
But getting the interview is most of the game in Hollywood. And if getting the interview isn’t a big deal, then the nepo babies should do just fine without their parent pulling strings to get them auditions.
It’s always assumed that women attained their position through something other than talent or hard work. They got the job because they are pretty. They slept their way to the job. Daddy bought it for them. It isn’t surprising that they get tarred with the Nepo Baby brush more often as well.
Pretty sure you mean “the daughter of A Talking Cat!?! star Eric Roberts.”
To be fair, even if a genius did write a story people would crap on it...as even the most genius plan would either come off too simple cause alot of plans just are and they work...or too complex and people wouldnt get it or say it’s contrived and trash. Especially in today’s super cynical critical everyone’s a A level…
To be fair, why is everyone on the show’s case about subtlety. When it took people this long to notice they are satiring stuff or that not everyone guessed the ending to i see dead people. It’s okay to use the trope and not be some Avant Gard take on it. I’d at least wait to see what their cooking till we label the…
Homelander can’t see through zinc. It’s not a stretch to understand that he wouldn’t be able to pinpoint Hughie in the ducts. Keep up, AV Club. Jesus, y’all have one job. ONE JOB!
How is it unbelievable she didn’t pop the heads of the sheep? It seems like she usually has to stand still and concentrate on the target to use her power and there were 4 or so flying sheep zipping around the sky, so if she stops to blow up one the other 3 would have just torn her to shreds.
Bull, not a buffalo. It was a bull. MM explicitly *said* it was a bull.
