Isn’t LMoE programmed up against the actual Designated Survivor?

Don’t have a picture because I was simply walking to take out my trash, and not as high profile as some. But remarkable for the setting. I live in a quiet, but decidely downscale, neighborhood. One one corner of the block is a bar. And what must be the bar owner’s automobile, I came face to face with a Bentley Flying…

The Halperin-less The Circus.

Depends on what you define as ‘acting.’ I’m a big fan of many many many of the movies he’s in, but in the past 25-30 years, it has become abundantly clear that he has little facility for creating things on his own. Maybe its the social anxiety of live performance, versus the insulation of a movie set, maybe it’s the…

Shootin is fer showoffs.

This episode carried the Mulaney stamp of a standup/writer. The bits hit harder because the details were sweated over. All the little asides and meta-comments made even the blandest pitches pop.

The way Claudia’s cultural propaganda worked on Elizabeth, even when pointedly aimed at Paige, is such a depressing character note.

Oh I get it. . . . You mean like when someone drinks too much, . . . or snorts cocaine, . . .or bets the house on the ponies . . .

Seehorn worked with Cummings on Whitney. I assumed that the shelter worker bit was just the two of them getting on the phone and saying ‘hey, wanna drop by and be on Roseanne’s show?’

Bears, Beets, Battlestar Galactica

I chuckled, . . . was I supposed to chuckle?

Just the Chiefs’ fortune that this superstar has done exactly ONE thing of note in his career thus far

Or, apparently, the origin of Honky. 

Knowing the eventual developments of BB may add some to the impact of the story of how we got there, but the story itself is more than capable of standing on its own. There are small sly references that BB viewers will appreciate, and some of the signposts pointing to the future have a gravity for those who know what…
