I saw a Steve Carell Newswire, and I got excited for a second, but the title said nothing about Dan in Real Life. Then I saw it wasn't even written by O'Neal. Then I saw she even mentioned Dan in Real Life, as if to twist the knife even further. It seems O'Neal is just taking the day off, though, so I don't think the

I've been doing a lot of bread lately too, almost all no-knead bread. It really is amazing that something so easy gives such amazing results.

No kidding. Sorting by oldest, I see that there's over a hundred comments missing (based on how many times I click on load more comments).

To be fair, all he said was that he wouldn't consider it cheating, but he's not WISH's wife. She likely has a different definition of cheating, which I think was what Dan was implying even if he didn't say it in so many words.

I wouldn't like it if he was doing something like that without my knowledge. But if he had a non-penetrative fetish I wasn't comfortable with doing myself, I'd probably be okay giving permission to seek it elsewhere.

Yeah, I wanted to yell at the TV for Carol to say, "so, could you clarify what you mean by that, just to be sure you're not going to do something stupid?"

Did anyone actually think Lizzie's line of "I know what I have to do now" could possibly mean anything good? When I heard that, I knew something bad was coming (even though I didn't know exactly what it was). I thought it was terribly cliched.

The AV Club

How does he smell?

I think she purposefully tries to style herself badly, because that's just part of her persona. Her hair and her clothes make her seem much less attractive than she is, which gets people talking about her and her show, which is what she wants.

I didn't get that impression from the review at all. He was just acknowledging that there was a "small but vocal minority" of people hoping she'd fail (which is absolutely true), and that this episode could be controversial. He himself even goes on to criticize her performance by saying "multi-character sketch comedy

What do you get out of it though? Seriously, I'm really wondering. I really don't like Two and a Half Men, and I think it's a shame it gets such high ratings, but I don't watch the show, then go on the internet constantly insulting the people involved. I just ignore it and accept that there is an audience for it, and

I think the writing has gotten better lately. The last few years under Seth the writing was extremely lazy with a ridiculous over-reliance on one-joke recurring bits and unimaginative current events sketches. Now they seem to be trying new things, which can be a bit hit-or-miss, but is a vast improvement.

Does someone force you to sit in front of the TV and watch Girls week in and week out?

As far as I know, almost nobody is really sincerely calling her the voice of a generation. Her character on the show called herself that, and it was used in a lot of promos, so it stuck in everybody's minds and people still use the phrase to criticize her.

Yeah, I don't know about Colin. His delivery is just not very good. Cecily seems to be improving at selling the jokes. I loved her really horrible Italian accent because she just went for it. I would have been fine with her as the sole anchor, but if they're going to do co-anchors, they need to find a way to make it

I think this review is pretty much spot on. The sketches were a little hit or miss, and Dunham did fine. She didn't show much range, but she was pretty good in most of the sketches. I kept waiting for a punchline to the jewelry/mra sketch, but it just kind of ended. Definitely the weakest sketch of the night. The

If they keep bringing him back at that rate, I'm sure I'll get tired of him. But it made sense for him to be there the day before the Oscars, and on his second appearance he even joked about how he came back again so quickly.

Oh yeah, that was a bit odd. He seemed to focus on race a little too much.

Yeah, I thought the 12 Years a Slave sketch was really funny. Other than that, I agree with the reviewer on pretty much everything else. Which is an improvement in the reviews, because I almost never agreed with Sims on anything.
