Since people keep throwing lengths of time around: the 60-D Senate lasted from July 7 2009 (Al Franken seated) to Feb 4 2010 (Scott Brown wins election in MA).  So 7 months, including end-of-year holidays and all.

let’s be real: if obama tried to set abortion rights in stone, january 6th would have happened in 2010.

If you wanna go back and play the “We shoulda...” game...

It is a shame Triumph is wasted doing bits on Colbert. He was a way better match on Conan.

It’s good to see Triumph is still getting work. 

Bernthal needs his own website for all his different show’s hair-styles.

Yup it’s the TV equivalent of the death of the mid budget movie. Everything’s prestige or trash, with very limited selections in between.

I haven’t seen AV covering We Own This City, but it’s good. It feels like The Wire season 6, with a surprising amount of The Wire cast back in different roles, like Marlo (Jamie Hector) as a cop.

To be honest, the Golden Age of TV is great and all, but I’m a little annoyed that everything is a super special limited event cinematic drama masterpiece these days. I know there’s still plenty dross out there too, but I miss something like the humble basic cable light drama—your Leverages, your Burn Notices, your…

they just don’t write (jokes) like that anymore

He lost

Of course it was never a competition. It was a publicity stunt straight from the start. Hence why more veteran game show hosts like Brooke Burns or Meredith Viera were never invited to be guest hosts. Hell, the fact that it was a “tryout” at all was all pure fan speculation. The show itself did not mention it…

How come no one’s suggested Greg Kihn?

I mean, okay. But at what point does “grooming” then mean nothing at all beyond just being manipulative?

I have no doubt this guy has an earned reputation for being a sleazeball, but a groomer? Literally all of the women in the breakout-series of accusations were 18 (or older? I think one was like 19?). Which, hate to break it to these women, means they were adults. There’s essays of stuff to say about his gross behavior…

Limiting an account to a physical location is only a problem if you think Netflix gives a shit about screwing over customers. Seeing as how we’re even talking about an anti-sharing crackdown in the first place, it seems pretty obvious just how much Netflix cares.

The first paragraph is the perfect encapsulation of Barsanti as a writer. In one paragraph, we veer wildly between:

That can cut two ways. Unearned, treacly nostalgia is obnoxious. But this movie pushed the right buttons, including the real-life health issues of Val Kilmer. Seeing the pictures of him from the first film juxtaposed with his current self wasn’t anything that could be artificially replicated. His exchanges with Cruise…

“..but if you’re one of these internet people who bases their entire personality on why the MCU is Bad, we hope you’re happy”

It definitely seems like they’re better than most countries in terms of ageism. I think of actors like Elizabeth McGovern and Gillian Anderson, who found renewed careers acting in the UK.
