"Magic" by Pilot. I'm sorry.

I agree that it was Villasenor's night, been the impressions and her pretty much single-handedly saving the sticky buns sketch. I also agree that the last 20 minutes were a mess.

Obviously I was just giving an opinion, I wasn't really trying to speak from any godlike authority. Don't listen to me, anyway. I'm still waiting for Altman's "Nashville" to win.

The award is for "best performance by an actor in a leading role". It is not for " most wonderful human being".

Moonlight was probably the fourth best nominated picture, after Manchester By the Sea, Hell or High Water, Hidden Figures, and (maybe) La La land. I totally get that it speaks to a segment of the audience that has been sadly ignored in the past, but, let's face it, it was not the best picture.

"Where the hell is Luke?" you ask, in an already overloaded episode.

It was alluded to up top, but I just have to say it here: 24 is just not as much fun in the Trump era. Let's face it . We know he was probably watching the show, because there were references to Trump watching the Super Bowl for some Super Bowl party. We also know that Trump has an issue distinguishing fiction from…

After writing the above comments, I looked the film up here and was very happy to see that in in-depth review of the entire saga was published here just a few months ago. Great going!

I would have liked to have seen Jan Troell's "The Emigrants/The New Land" films here. They seem to have been forgotten and are relatively hard to find, especially the second film.

About the only thing in this film that I appreciated and that made me smile and temporarily forget its lacklusterness was when the film finally - FINALLY broke into the old Elmer Bernstein theme.

You know, I totally get that I am in the minority here, but I really liked "Crash." I absolutely get the criticisms of it - yeah, it's a white person's view of racism, it lacks realism, etc. - but it struck me on a very basic level and I appreciated it. I do agree (I usually don't) with the best picture/director split…

Interestingly enough, where I thought you might have overrated the previous episode, I think you underrated this one. The honest moments here were better than the show has provided in weeks, in spite of a few slipups. Maybe it bent over backwards a bit to include too many subplots, but I would call it a solid episode…

Although I wasn't as enamored of this episode as you were, I think the season has been an improvement over the last one. The biggest disappointment has been that Sarah Hyland hasn't been given the opportunity to really act that she was given last season, when her character was allowed to mature.

It was a September morning, 1975, during my first week of college. I was driving north on Chicago's Lake Shore Drive, the lake sparkling on my right, the Chicago skyscrapers glinting on my left. My future was ahead; I was working toward escaping from my run-of-the-mill South Side neighborhood. I was half-listening to…

I have a pretty good crap detector but it's either temporarily out of order or I'm just ignoring it and enjoying the ride. Two episodes in (I tend to go slowly; I'm not a binge watcher) and I'm getting into it. It's obviously without the depth of a "The Night Of" or "Fargo" (either one) but it's a cool little…

A couple of glitches in the episode, but overall very good. (You can say that about most of Richard Price's writing.)

They are stupid, unrealistic, poorly directed and acted but a lot of fun: the mid-Sixties Beach movies, beginning with "Beach Party" and ending with "How to Stuff a Wild Bikini," the worst of the bunch. They catch the goofy idealism and fun that we used to believe summers were made for. When I think of summer, a part…

Remember that last comment. It may be surprisingly appropriate.

I have often argued, to little avail, that "Easy Rider" is equally critical of its own generation (and I was part of that generation). Thanks for seeing it as well. By the way, and this is clearly my own opinion, I feel Penn's "Alice's Restaurant" captures the era a little better.
