I’m still digging this show. It’s not the best thing ever, but the humour and emotion really speak to me in a way few things don’t. This may be an unpopular opinion, but it’s really refreshing to have a show tackle mental health in a way that acknowledges just how messy it can be. Is it realistic? God no, but I laugh…

“Was he hot?”

wet-ass poopy

Yup. I’m fucking despondent when I don’t get my extra biscuit. If I got no biscuits? Well, heaven help us all.

Liz is right. I’d be mad about missing the chicken, but absolutely cannot be held accountable for whatever I’d do over missing biscuits.

I haven’t seen the movie yet and of course thought “wait, this is a non-fiction biopic?”, and a search brought me to her website. My next though was “wow, did they nail the casting ‘cause Kate Blanchett looks exactly like... wait a gosh-darn minute now!”

Hopefully, decades from now our progeny will be confused and…

I really appreciate the Bernstein family having a sense of humor about it and playing along.

I wonder sometimes if there’s just one Extremely Divorced Guy on here with lots of accounts, or if AV Club is just the new hot hangout for bitter divorcees. 

Well, thank god we have you to save us from the scourge of women oppressing us all with their filthy lies.

on the other hand “balloon animals” McGillicuddy you can certainly look up on your work computer*

Technically, it’s only a zombie if it comes from the Zombie region of France. Otherwise it’s just a sparkling revenant.

Sexual intimacy between Harper and Ethan was the least of their issues. These are two numbingly boring people with no interests in the world around them or each other. They’re on a vacation and they express no excitement or even interest in seeing anything, trying out any new cuisine, or investigating any history in…

You forget, Albie already advocated for his Dad well before the transaction was even agreed to. Mike White had that covered in his storyline and was made crystal clear at the breakfast table scene.

Agreed. There’s some social media pining to bring back Harper next season, but enough sneering is enough sneering. After all those episodes White just punted with a nonsensical table scene and toast. All the cheating, lying scheming after Ethan’s money - just gone, like WTF did we just watch? 

The sound design of that CLANG of her head hitting the boat railing was masterful.

I finally figured out why Jack has been so unsettling for me. It’s because he’s giving me Michale Pitt in Funny Games vibes. Portia, there are ride share apps in Sicily. Get out!

Not an “A” IMO. The acting and directing, maybe. They’re pretty great. It’s generally entertaining. But the writing? The plots are too thin (and probably just too many) and reliant on this tropey “don’t tell them an obvious thing so illogical chaos can happen”. I get that it is some kind of Italianate narrative…

I haven’t seen evidence of her good heart. (She treated Albie badly,stole pills from her boss, thought it was funny to dine and dash, whines incessantly; need I go on?)  And her outfits are horrible. 

I’m guessing I’ll be in for a lot of abuse for saying this, but I didn’t find Jennifer Coolidge’s hot man candy very hot.

I thought it was horrible too but we might be the only ones
