Oh, yeah I just looked and his son Larry was one of the producers. John Landis directed it, and it has interviews with some great comedians (e.g. Bob Newhart, Chris Rock, Sarah Silveman, Date Attell, Robin Williams), but also others in showbiz, like actors and directors (Sidney Poitier, Robert DeNiro, Martin Scorsese,…

I can't recommend enough the HBO documentary Mr. Warmth: The Don Rickles Project, an excellent—and revealing—tribute to the man.

I was thinking the same thing. She mentions April, Tom, and even Jerry, but Ron's name is conspicuously absent.

That’s Archer: Dreamland at its essence: a chance for one of TV’s more outrageous comedies to indulge in its penchant for old-school tropes while doing something naughty with them. If it feels at times like the show is having more fun just riffing on the setting and era of its latest narrative gambit than it is…

Iirc the most salient thing about his SNL tenure was the number of times he killed a sketch by breaking into laughter. He did it so many times that some people started to wonder out loud if he was faking it/doing it deliberately.

Eh. I think it's fine. For me some of the funnier impersonations on SNL have been the ones where they don't bother trying to replicate the subject's appearance and mannerisms at all, and instead just go for absurdity (Chevy Chase's Gerald Ford impersonation comes to mind) or they do go for some semblance of the…

Agreed. I thought he was a much more interesting character when he was more-or-less reformed.

Robots. Unless you're that traitor, Tiger-Bot Hesh.

Yeah. Iron Man is the first comic book character that I know of to wear a metal suit to enhance the wearer's physical strength, add weapons, etc., so if anything it seems like Radix and countless other titles are riffs on that core concept, which is itself a riff on knights, etc., wearing armor. The design of Iron…

I love all of their stuff. I'd be hard-pressed to have to rank them.

He should also apologize for looking so much like Sylvester Stallone in the header image that I clicked on this expecting to find a much more interesting premise.

If I hadn't, I'm sure she'd find a dozen different opportunities to shoehorn in plugs for it.

Fey and her various co-writers have been punching both up and down going back to 30 Rock, which made fun of a whole bunch of European cultures (e.g. the English, the Irish, the French, Germans, Italians), as well as people of color, the LGBTQ community, the working poor, etc. To me she's not doing anything any…

Where are Lisa, Bart, and Barry White when you need them?

I used to make those the one year in high school when I worked at a Pizza Hut Delivery store.

They double-downed on it, however, when they revisited the stories in Classic X-Men, the run that had additional vignettes added after the reprints original stories. I think it was the first issues where they added a bit about the scene where he creeps up on her and Angel, I believe, flies in to "rescue" her.

And he more or less harassed Jean with his over-the-top… advances, let's say, when he first joined the team.

Couldn't the prince have been the same age before the transformation as he is afterwards, and part of the witch's curse is that he doesn't age—like he's condemned to remain a beast for all eternity unless he can get someone to fall in love with him?

I was a Sanders supporter who volunteered—and trained others to volunteer—for Clinton once she won the nomination. I spent Election Day driving my students and others to the polls. Having said all of that, she was a deeply flawed candidate running a deeply flawed campaign for this political climate, and she and the…

Hopefully the lead in a not-so-distant-future MCU film version of Squirrel Girl.
