SNL summed it up with Chris Rock: "You were trying to replace a charaismatic black guy in his 40s with an establishment white woman in her 70s."

I loved the post-election episode of Black-Ish taking on so many of the issues. One of the best being Wanda Sykes' character asking a white woman co-worker "you had the chance to elect the FIRST EVER female President and 53 percent of you went for the pussy-grabber. Why did you sisters not come out for Hillary?"

My thoughts match Velocirapstar most of the time. I just think important to showcase what the right thinks quite often as too many on the left vastly underestimate the weight they carry.

Actually she's getting press now but not in a good way as she's fighting breast cancer. Doing posts of herself going bald and chemo but still fighting, changes your view of her majorly.

All on Netflix now if you want to try….

And somehow the right-wing sites will blame Obama for it.

Fine, fine…just hoping not a repeat of when I was warning folks at places (like AV Club) on the last weekend before the election of Trump winning and was dismissed as a "Russian troll."

Again, Trump and Brexit proved how we can no longer count on human rational thinking.

Let's not forget, France is one nation that can always point to about six different periods to rank as "the worst time in our nation's history."

Hey, one more shooting by a Muslim and she's in.

Um, didn't Trump forever destroy the absolute certainty of "so and so will NEVER win?"

Best bit is the revival of the old gag of Charming bringing up Snow dating Whale and she yells "we were cursed!"

Not sure of that. I remember Hopper saying much of it was overblown and they even made peace for a bit but realized a feud was "better for business."

Here's the video of the actual Bette Davis Roast:

"You're sitting there with a margarita at 11 o'clock!"

On the pilot scenes, great tale that in 1983, Davis played the role of Laura Trent in the TV series of Hotel and they pushed it big complete with the "MISS Bette Davis" credit. But she had to bow out for health so for the rest of the show, her spot was filled by Anne Baxter. As it turned out, Davis outlived Baxter by

Kidman vs Lange vs Sarandon, wow…..

Also loved the guy at the bookstore when she said "they're buying the book to mock me" and he goes "be happy, they're usually not buying at all" as if it's helpful.

Another sign of the changing times: Joan's agent openly warning her Trog is crap with very little money, bluntly letting her know how her star has fallen but of course, she just has to try it.

That was what makes it so fascinating, how damn alike they really were and shared the same conflicts, struggles and battles yet their respective pride and egos couldn't let them see it.
