Recaps are a poor substitute for reviews. 

The problem was there was an 18 inch floating fortress in danger of being crushed by a dwarf!

Shut up, Lars. 

Killing a dog doesn’t make her evil. Michael kicked a dog into the sun on The Good Place and he’s the architect of Eleanor and Chidi’s heaven. That reminds me, I really need to finish watching season one.

He was shown to be fast enough to get to Berlin from NY in Civil War.

I feel like it’s due for an adaptation, it’s pretty timely given how much the book revolves around the concept of privilege: “They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together,…

The Crown’s approach to history is rather more like the way we tend to dramatize much older events where people are less likely to care about the particulars.  In this case, the idea of a regular Joe breaking into the palace and trying to talk about how things are in Britain is a neat jumping off point for dramatizing…

IMO a B+ is way generous for this episode. The show’s choice to glorify Fagan as the voice of the working class becomes much more problematic in light of the actual details of the situation. Per the NY Times story on the history behind this episode, Fagan “sat on the bed six feet from the Queen, told her he loved her…

Letterman had a series of philandering episodes and kept being a philanderer....I’m not exactly seeing the issue with him being 73...I’m pretty sure that qualifies him for an actual frail old man now.

The internet has made writers out of people who don’t have much to say or don’t know how to say it. “Lacking” is my pet peeve (lacking what?!), and I see it in freakin’ headlines.

A climactic encounter with another prominent Republican pushes further while still going more or less where the audience might expect, toward an incident that would constitute a front-page embarrassment five or 10 years ago.

On the off-chance his interview subjects would’ve actually known about countries...

Well, Ms. Evans is no longer with us and her estate filed the suit.

If it’s any solace, in the trailer I saw, the people of his Kazakhstan village are not happy with Borat.

I have a feeling you’d find a way to be annoyed if they were replacing him with an Icelandic voice actor as well.

I see no problem in pointing out the comically absurd discrepancy between “rich people” prison and “regular people” prison. It’s yet another indicator of how drastically removed from actual consequences the wealthy are.
What do I want? I want equal treatment under the law. I want the conditions of someone’s prison…

What is a calorie

I absolutely had a few eyebrow-raises reading the article. One, OK Computer was MASSIVE. “#1 single” is far from the metric. Up here, MuchMusic still played the living hell out of the video for Paranoid Android. The album was virtually inescapable and like you said in your initial bit, it was multi-platinum. That…

Hang on a sec.

So basically your theory is that you’re smart and everyone else is dumb.
