I think it depends. A lot of comedy shows on streaming I think would benefit from being shorter and tighter instead of “Well, there’s no commercials, let’s run over 30 minutes because we can.”

With Kenan’s sitcom having just been cancelled, I guess he has no reason to leave yet.

My Monopoly Hot Take: If your show or movie doesn’t have enough recognizable locations to fill a Monopoly board, don’t bother making one. Like I’ve seen ones where the properties are the characters themselves or the Friends one has famous episodes instead of places. It virtually ruins the point of the game.

I’d rather have more of that April Fools Australian version.

At this rate, will there even be a Netflix for season 5 to transpire on?

Yes, but they’re presenting that as a TV Show, which it was. It also looks like they’re ignoring the fact that Chip and Dale were popular characters even before that show happened.

(Can we stop with these one-word titles?)

Why does the grunting sound like water going down a drain?

Damn, it feels like yesterday season 3 happened.  Can’t wait!

Huh, I’m surprised American Auto squeaked through while Kenan and Mr. Mayor got the axe.

I expected them to be very Cheaper By The Dozen wacky/slapstick-y, but was surprised by how grounded the first one was (save for the scene where Steve Martin tries to get back an envelope). The second one dialed up the silliness, IIRC, not much but still noticeable (like Steve Martin trying to stop a wrecking ball…

I watched Great News when it was on!

I forgot this was a thing several times over the last year.

I think maybe the first episode or two are free for their original programming; you have to have a paid account to view the whole thing.

Glad to hear it’s good! “New York Lonely Boy” is the best song of 2021.

It’s based on a Funny or Die video, so you’re not far off.

He’s also fine in the play One Man, Two Guv’nors, mostly because he’s supposed to be an obnoxious fool.

And nothing of value was lost.

Aren’t the main characters in Wicked supposed to be like college-age or something? I don’t think we need another Dear Evan Hansen on our hands where the OG leads are playing characters they are now far too old to portray.

I usually skip the majority of the “Broadway Melody” sequence when I rewatch this, except for the beautiful dance between Gene, Cyd and the big flowy scarf; the rest is just so long and has virtually nothing to do with the rest of the film, which is otherwise perfect.
