One of the finest shows of the last decade. I suspect appreciation for Reservation Dogs will only grow as the years pass.

No Malcolm in the Middle?! It was from 2000-2006. One of the best comedies IMO. 

I think this show is pretty well known around the AV Club at least. Plus it streams on every free service for my Roku. I love the theme by Johnny Flynn, nature porn, the low key, dry humor, the occasional light supernatural atmosphere and general nerding out. Toby Jones is fatastic as always. Plus, my understanding is…

For anybody looking for the tone of The Detectorists done in the style of The Office (UK), I wholeheartedly recommend This Country. It’s a little hard to (legally) find stateside once it dropped off of Hulu, but totally worth it if you can.

I’m just really not looking forward to the day a decade from now when Tom Breihan has to release a Stereogum Number Ones entry about this piece of shit. (Remember Tom and his awesome columns on this site back when it used to produce quality content? Ah, the good old days...)

Really the opening scene is all about Amanda Plummer screaming on top of that table, simply because it gave us the song "Scooby Snax" by Fun Lovin Criminals. 

Sad to see you go, and sad to see the condition of this once great site. Even though I tend to read your (and really any) reviews with a grain of salt, I always appreciated your strict adherence to reviewing a film as a film on its own merits, asking it to be best it could be and criticizing where it fell short. As…

Oh, no, I didn’t mean to ding you for being imprecise! I just know it’s not always clear from bylines and stuff what people’s jobs are, so I wanted to give some extra PROMO for any interested parties that Tasha actively shapes the film stuff at Polygon—a big part of why it’s solid, IMHO.

Tasha is an editor at Polygon, which means not only does she write some of her own stuff, she has her own stable of freelancers, which used to include AVC’s own Roxana Hadadi (who now has a staff job at Vulture!) and still includes folks like Noel Murray and, less excitingly, me.

Not only is it not weird, but I’m sure this movie would be improved by having JVN in every scene commenting on the action with no explanation.

Shit’s weird, man. I have a lot more to say but I shouldn’t. 

A couple of the OG AVC writers post on The Verge’s pop culture section articles sometimes, but the comments section there is a ghost town comparatively. 

Yeah, if I could get my pop culture fix somewhere else I would be out of here in a heartbeat. The way they’re treating the last few remaining writers who made the AV Club what it once was is appalling. The site is already a shell of its former self, and after this I can’t see how it can become anything but a rotting…

So shitty! I’ve been hanging out here a long time, and amidst all the upheaval of the past several years, Dowd has remained one of the reasons to keep coming back. What an underhanded, slimy way to treat - not just a valued and valuable employee - but just a human being generally. Fucking cretins.

@AA Dowd - if you and a bunch of current/former AVClub writers end up spinning off to your own new website, I would happily follow.

can we talk about this instead?

I had the thought years ago that someone should resurrect chat rooms, but instead of text there were digital avatars in a digital space where unexpected things happened (like an AI program that simulated conversation with Oscar Wilde).

That’s cool. And I’m totally not eyeing possible exits right now.

Sneed’s Feed & Seed (formerly Zuck’s)?

Oh, man, Terranigma.
