A-fucking-men. I HATED everything about this scene. This is the third time (perhaps more, I'm thinking of Marcy, DA, gangsters) they've pulled out the Foggy dresses someone down with a long monologue routine and it has gotten staler every time. Foggy is a character that is largely hit or miss with me depending on any…

I have to admit that I started laughing out loud at that orgasmic arm touch reaction. That whole scene did not work for me, but then, I've consistently been more interested in Karen when she's away from Foggy/Matt. I'm not really invested in this love story, but by the time they kissed it had become inevitable I guess.

Hardly. Claiming that a line of critique "comes off as a bit racist" is not accusing anyone of waving banners at a KKK rally, nor is it asserting that Oliver is an evil person. The comment literally just questioned the line of reasoning for the critique, which you are free to argue against. I know that to a lot of…

Your outrage at what was a thorough and, frankly, calm critique is ludicrous.

This list just made me miss Big Terrific all over again. With Hannibal having left the Knitting Factory some time ago, I'm down to 2 Dope Queens and Night Train as go-to comedy nights.

Given that Y Tu Mamá También is my favorite movie, I've always had a soft spot for Diego Luna, but also vastly preferred Gael Garcia Bernal. That above picture, though, it's really working for me.

I bet most of black America was laughing their asses off as loudly as I was, but beyond that, I don't think many other people know who Stacy Dash is. Let alone why exactly she is such a laughing-stock and embarrassment among many black people. I will always love BET for playing every video Stacy Dash ever appeared in…

Rock's claim that people in the 60s had "real shit" to worry about compared to today and that's why the subject of diversity has become more prominent is the exact make-the-white-audience-feel-more-comfortable crap that I was hoping he would avoid. All in all, it wasn't a bad hosting spot, and there were points where…

I caught Frosty by complete accident: Laid up and half visible on one of the shelves of my bureau with pots. He only visited once, but I happened to get a picture of him during his singular visit (weeks ago).

I was in the 9th Grade. Saw it in the theater at night on Halloween with a group of friends. Scared the living hell out of me. An older friend drove me home, and I arrived at my house around 10:30, thinking my mom and two sisters would be home. WRONG. They were STILL OUT at my Aunt's house having the time of their…

Every time I get to the end of the album, I hit repeat and listen to Fade three more times.

You can also get 3 months for free via Beyonce's Formation track. It ain't that hard.

Having just rewatched both series in the past year, Brotherhood is leagues ahead of the original in terms of story coherence and narrative building, and I loved the original when it first came out. Brotherhood feels cohesive in a way I always felt the original didn't towards the end (and the characters' motivations in…

The labeling of Bush as "Kasich" may have been a mistake, but it actually worked beautifully within the context of the sketch. It made me laugh at least, the idea that Jeb is such a white bread, no charisma nothing that the network couldn't even get his name right.

I'm still sore that Looking got cancelled this year after that fantastic second season.

The amount of times I've listened to Slumlord is borderline embarrassing. My love for that song knows no bounds.

Honestly, I think it has less to do with increased sensitivity and more to do with an increased feeling of comfort expressing discomfort or criticism with previously accepted behavior. Like, if you tell someone "I don't think it's okay for you to say that dude. It's not funny" then people might get defensive or argue…

The day that the phrase "play the race card" retires cannot come soon enough. No matter how eloquent or reasoned an argument is, the second that phrase gets whipped out it just casts everything that came before it in a lesser light. Spike Lee may be a curmudgeon and the question may have been one he couldn't answer A.…

Definitely. I found this episode so fantastic largely because it's delving into something I find fascinating. So often I hear men fretting over the idea that maybe there's someone better out there or that buckling themselves down to one person somehow becomes a prison that they have to navigate for the rest of their…

It is so rare that I see TV relationships that hit me just a little too squarely regarding my own past relationships, but this was definitely one of them: the fact that it's an interracial coupling (which leads to its own arguments and missed understandings), the arguments about space/boundary in apartments, the up…
