Stop! Stop! I can only withstand so much toxic masculinity!

For a long time, the idea was that Frasier and Niles were going to run a black-box theater, like how they bought that restaurant and brought it back to life,” Cristalli told Vulture. “But it’s hard for Frasier and Niles to run the theater when you don’t have Niles, so we had to step back from that.

Martin Scorsese’s Opinion on Marvel Films Remains Unchanged, Vigil Continues

An AV Club newswire is disingenuous? To drive clicks? Well, I never! Next you’ll be telling me that their copyediting is shoddy.

Remember when Giuliani was...well, he was always an asshole, but remember when he wasn't literally a wizened, ichor-dripping hobgoblin?

I thought Pierce (the character) was great, I thought Chase’s performance as Pierce was great, and I think the show suffered a bit after Chase left (though not nearly as much as after Glover and Brown left), but I don’t blame the rest of the cast and Dan Harmon in the slightest for being glad to be rid of him.

Oh, those are AI-generated, so they’re labor-free!

“Mediocre” has always been an insult, numbnuts. 

“Actually I have a picture for reference if want to see it.”

I mean, “ugly sneakers” just seems gratuitous.

Ah, somehow missed the second paragraph of your initial comment! Yeah, the show made a couple of half-hearted stabs at giving Troi a professional life, but for the most part it was just “I sense the angry alien is angry.”

I’m glad that they at least more or less instantly went back to being friends and colleagues. Almost as if it were all some sort of sweeps week stunt...

Oh, CBS has been keeping the multicam home fires burning--The Neighborhood, Bob Hearts Abishola--for a long time now, and apparently the Night Court revival was a big hit for NBC. 

I mean, describing what Troi does as “feeling things in space” isn’t entirely unfair given her typical role in episodes, but it’s clear she at least has a psychology degree. I’m pretty sure there’s an episode or two where she’s returning to the ship after having presented a paper at a conference or some such. Crusher…

“Jason said he wanted me fired,” the notes from Heard’s therapist say of Jason Momoa. She further accuses the star of being drunk and late to set, and even “Dressing like Johnny. Has all the rings too.”

Yep! But I guess he shared similar thoughts in a different outlet, so now we get to talk about it again?

What I find interesting is my ability to tolerate laugh tracks with classic sitcoms—I Love Lucy and M*A*S*H and Cheers and Frasier are all still perfectly watchable—but contemporary multicams just come across as unbearably awkward. I keep wanting to compare it to filming a contemporary film in black and white, except…

Nu-Frasier is even more properly a spinoff. Same character but new setting and new cast? Spinoff.
