Missy Elliott is a national treasure.

I remember her hosting a primetime special for kids in which she said that masturbation is okay and perfectly normal, but just be sure to finish your homework first. Changed my life. And improved my grades!

Will this Batman series be brave enough to portray Two-Face accurately? By which I mean with drool dripping from his open cheek and all his speech sounding like argle-argle-argle.

Don’t see this movie! If you see this dark and gritty Santa movie, then you’ll just encourage Dwayne Johnson to make a dark and gritty Easter Bunny movie, and then a ... I don’t know ... fucking dark and gritty Arbor Day movie. It’s a slippery slope...

High school French finally comes in useful!

I enjoyed this article, and I would like to see more like it in the future. I applaud the AVClub for trying something new! The only downer was seeing all the grumpypants complaints about the article, but that’s totally my fault for clicking “See all comments”.

Ashton Kutcher sounds like an excited puppy stumbling around happily looking for his toy.

I loved it and I’m glad it’s getting a second season!

I just finished watching the entire run of the original Doctor Who. (I refuse to binge watch so it took a looooong time.) Ian Chesterton really was one of the best companions the Doctor had. I’m sorry to see him go, but I’m glad we had him as long as we did.

I’m guessing he is referring to the original Doctor Who pilot, which was not aired in 1963 because it was reshot. But I’m not sure.

Just commenting as a record that this article was reposted again in late May 2024. Cheers!

I couldn’t bring myself to use “journalist”.

It looks fine. The only difference now is that bloggers feel compelled to spend 500 words commenting on a trailer.

I always have trouble with the swimming pools/Rhode Islands conversion.

Just finished it. I loved it! A batshit crazy ending for a batshit crazy show. Every minute was fun. At one time or another I loved or hated every character. Such a wild show.

I’m looking forward to Oscar Isaac reprising his “Do you talk, do I talk” scene with Moses.

If there were good cops, then the good cops would stop the bad cops. No cops are stopping the bad cops, therefore there are no good cops.
