You probably had the bland white version of cauliflower: blanched with no salt. The rest of the cuisine world knows how to treat cauliflower better.

*after the last dab* “So, Jordan, what exactly did you do on Conan’s show at TBS?”

R.E.M. now stands for Really Elderly Men.

Until the Eye Of Sauron AV focuses on JK Rowling once more, for now we are stuck with updates of Shane Gillis’ every move whenever he dares to actually attempt to advance his career.

Unless they manage to get Jordan Schlansky on. (On one hand, I don’t know what that would look like without Conan bouncing off him at high speed. On the other, I can’t think of anything better than Jordan expounding for several minutes on the culinary characteristics of chili peppers and the technical aspects of the…

While I’m not sure there’s another comedian who so accurately embodies “failing upwards” there are way worse people to get worked up over. 

I want to see Bill Hader and John Mulaney’s James L. Brooks samurai movie, “But What If You’re Wrong?”

Confusing to see “it never made it to the main stage, much less to air” in this post, when the whole point of SNL dress rehearsal is that it is on the main stage, then they cut the 2-3 sketches that tank the most (or succeed the least) before the live show goes to air. It’s also the clearly articulated premise of this…

I don’t like or support Shane Gillis, for the same reasons as hinted at here, and I still think this article is absolutely embarrassing. I would truly guess this was an amateur Tumblr post if it were stripped of context & formatting. 

Nope. He said some asshole things, got fired for it, adjusted his comedy a bit, and now he’s really successful. He admits why he got fired and pretty much makes fun of everyone, including right wingers. I haven’t seen his full specials, just various clips, but he kind of reminds of Dane Cook or Daniel Tosh. Not the…

They’re a bunch of pearl-clutching dorks upset that Shane Gillis, who they thought they successfully cancelled, is now bigger and more successful than any of these failed writers or their favorite bland comedians.

Did Shane Gillis run over the AV Club’s dog or something? This is just pathetic.

It’s hard for me to believe that “frat bros” aren’t a huge demographic for a show in which they ask people questions as they eat progressively hotter chicken wings.

Dunno why everyone’s so keen to see Grande do it. She’s just gonna grab all Sean’s wings, lick them, and then put them back his plate.

Grandpa is still cool see

This is a silly take. His comedic voice is almost as much a part of the show’s DNA as Larry David’s. They needed each other to make that show what it was. Curb is amazing, but Larry alone is way too acerbic to have gotten to be that successful—and Curb is Larry AFTER Seinfeld (the show), having learned lessons from…

Also there are things so absurd that are now reality that were just jokes when the show was on the air.

The rapid rise of Chappell Roan, of Ice Spice, of a hundred other popular talents who appeared out of nowhere and may or may not be industry plants but we’ll probably never know.

It really is kind of amazing how Seinfeld thinks that PC wokeness has killed television comedy when Veep and Curb, shows featuring his former collaborators, both had some of the most non-PC, un-woke content and just recently left the air each after long, critically acclaimed and commercially successful runs. What the…

There’s so much of Trump’s...tenure...as POTUS that is Ianuccian, but perhaps the best bit was the cherry on top of the whole shebang: Four Seasons Total Landscaping.
