Really, in this day and age 7.4 million viewers isn’t really that bad. That’s about twelve times the viewership of ‘Girls’ (not to knock ‘Girls’, I liked that series). Still, I recall the AVClub preview of the series was not exactly effusive in praise of it. I do feel sorry for the 3-400 people on the production staff…

Contracts run out, formerly hunky actors grow old. The origin 2002 teenage Spiderman is now 42 years old.

Most recently its come out that the ‘price of fame’ in Hollywood mostly involves people having to play ball with creepy sexual predators. Did Landis turn a blind eye to Jackson’s predation of little boys in order to keep the paychecks coming in?

By coincidence I recently heard a podcast savagely mocking aging pop stars who had started their career at 18 singing about their 16 year old girlfriend and who still pull out that same song when they’re 50+, making them sounds like creepy child predators. And BTW, let’s recall Brietbart is a nihilist Neonazi…

‘Libtard’? Let me say this with all sincerity, go fuck yourself Gomer.

His Access Hollywood claim is on par with candidate Trump last year claiming that Russia didn’t invade Ukraine. The statement is so patently idiotic, so demonstrably untrue that it passes beyond mere lying to ‘performance art’. Can you call it ‘lying’ if Trump randomly spouts absurd non-sequiturs that nobody on either…

Studios seem to get spooked if there’s not a ‘Big Name Star’ in the lead of a film. They’ll put out any dreck if the name Jennifer Lawrence or Johnny Depp is appended to it. Caplan and Peña are pretty big names these days but not ‘Big Names’ in capital letters.

I came here to ask how many here had their own ‘Sean Hannity’ relative at the family Thanksgiving dinner table yesterday. I think you’ve already covered that.

Its telling that of all their long history they’re now fixated on Dunkirk, of all historical events. That time they got kicked off the continent and feared for their survival. BREXIT, anyone? Modern day Britain is frightened. That’s why they did THIS film, as opposed to a history of the ‘troubles’ in Northern Ireland…

Darwininism at work often starts with the phrase “Hey, watch me do this!”

Just one series, just one episode you MUST watch for Thanksgiving.
Season 1 episode 106 of “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend”: “My first Thanksgiving with Josh”. On Netflix.

Dude, we’re talking about fancy home kitchen appliances, the definition of ‘buyer’s remorse’. Whether you’re talking espresso machines, crock pots, waffle griddles, pasta machines, standing mixers, ice cream makers, egg poachers or indoor turkey fryers, there eventually comes the day when you just want to throw the…

Trumpanzees are also supposedly ‘boycotting’ Jim Beam too. I’m sure that’s going well (eye roll). There was a major media survey some years ago that came to the conclusion that Fox News viewers are more malinformed than people who don’t pay attention to the news at all. If you start from a baseline of knowing nothing…

Aline Brosh McKenna recently referred to a kind of happy ending by the phrase “...plus the guy”. The goal is NOT the guy. The heroine has bigger fish to fry. But that being said, after everything important is ironed out we don’t want to leave heroine (X) leading an old maid’s life of meals-for-one forever.

But still... a taco cassarole.

Here’s a suggestion, take that phrase “oh-so-scary lady rage” and make it gender neutral: “oh-so-scary rage”. Yes, rage can indeed be scary. And I mean scary in an unironic, non-winking way.

Often there’s speculation about what’s next but people seem to be stunned silent by this episode. For the future, Scott Michael Foster has hinted on social media at a choreographed number with Bloom that required a full week(!) of rehearsal, plus mention of a duet with White Josh. So life does go on in Crazy…

It should be noted that those milkshakes were working. Rebecca’s anxiety was dropping, her suicidal thoughts were abating, her interest in the world was returning. Naomi was faced with a crisis situation with no good solution. She could either do what she did or she could find her daughter dead on the bathroom floor…

I joked that the Emmys would still be giving the best comedy award to ‘30 Rock’ if they could, despite the show being off the air for four years. Because so many people vote that it has devolved into nothing but a ‘name recognition’ contest.

Bloom telegraphed this punch years ago, right at the beginning. One of her earlier interviews during first season she said something along the lines of the show could go anywhere - they could have Rebecca commit suicide. Then she walked back the comment, joking that of course wouldn’t happen because the show would…
