This episode Rebecca compared Nathaniel to a sequoia. The season 1 wedding episode Bloom talks about a deleted scene where Rebecca and Heather compared Greg to a palm tree on a windy beach (Bloom says its official show canon the Greg had a long but very bent dick). I don’t think poor Nathaniel quite realizes that in…

Viewers forget how often Rebecca has shown signs of ‘recovery’ only to backslide. Is seems to happen once every 4 episodes. “Oh, she’s finally stopped lying to herself! Oh, she had a Dreamghost intervention! Oh, she’s dumped Josh and is into Greg now! Oh, Rabbi Sheri talked sense into her!” This episode showed that…

I loved the detail that Rebecca had filled in Paula’s dad on the details of her wanking-off on the couch while sexting. Grossly inappropriate Rebecca is fun Rebecca

Well, the resignation will stand until January 5th, at least.

David Hull was made a series regular but his character was stalled for a full year in the ‘old man’s boy toy’ role. Now that they’ve busted out of that straightjacket maybe they will give him a better story line. Bloom speaks of a sexy duet/dance between White Josh and Nathaniel.

The weird bonding between Rebecca and Paula’s awful dad is a hint that Rebecca really does love her mother after all, except that she also hates her. The behavior that we the audience loath about Naomi is actually right in Rebecca’s wheelhouse! If it weren’t for those ‘mom’ issues the pair would be great buddies…

What ‘editorial viewpoint’? I can’t imagine what you’re talking about. Unless you thing that mocking low IQ fools for conducting tiki torch marches under the Nazi flag is a ‘corporate editorial viewpoint’. No, that’s just the viewpoint anyone who is sane. 

Another site recently quipped that this show was a nostalgic fantasy about benevolent authoritarian rule. At their heart monarchies are criminal enterprises. The English monarchs looted and enslaved India, they did their best to loot America, they committed atrocities of the worst sort in Asia and Africa.

Maybe as a solution Batman ought to brand Zack Snyder’s face then throw him into prison and let nature take its course. Superhero movies as crypto-fascist wank fantasies doesn’t really do it for me.

Maybe this has all gone too far when this, of all things, is considered a story. Have you not seen the TV series ‘Riverdale’? Betty, Veronica and Cheryl are the show’s unapologetic take on ‘hot 16 year old cheerleaders’. Before that it was ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ and ‘Smallville’  taking a turn at ‘hot 16 year old…

Nothing honors the nation’s war dead quite like a ‘commemorative Tweet’.

I’m reminded of a quote attributed to Mark Twain, something along the lines of the best method for becoming a happy person is to be born that way. Reading type A personalities instructing us on how to be (fill in the blank) often feels like a golden retriever giving instructions to a cat on how to be the ideal pet.

To quote Mia Farrow in a film whose name I can’t recall, “Who is Pearl Harbor?”

What’s that saying? If men were the ones who got pregnant abortions would be available at mall vending machines.

I’m not getting the reference to ‘diet-Scorsese’.

Seriously, to keep sane I’ve been surviving on Korean TV series these days (thank God for the internet). First, it lets me escape from the nihilist hellscape that is the US for awhile ( is Walking Dead meant to be a documentary?), plus I’ve seen poop jokes on Korean TV on par with the best of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

Greg helped me understand how, in the real world, alcoholics always seemed to have a girlfriend.

A small reminder, Anderson is recently back from a trip to fck Russia/Trump stooge Julian Assange. And she’s being interviewed up right wing suck-up M. Kelly. Anderson one dry hump away from turning into Wendi Deng who reportedly did both Vlad Putin and Rupert Murdoch.

I gave up on Tarantino’s “sadist kitsch” act a long time ago.

An esoteric little niche comedy getting two seasons sounds pretty successful to me. Not everything on TV can run eleven seasons like MASH. ‘Peak TV’ not only means a high volume of content but also a high turnover of product.
