Either Trevor Noah or Seth Myers did a good bit on that Monday night.

I'm a junior level communications person. Shouldn't the DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS at the WHITE HOUSE realize that screenshots exist and these tweets are already in online articles?!

you know what? i definitely could have worded that more clearly! I actually meant that due to sexism, society conditions men to be more outwardly aggressive and event violent.

Even if women are physically violent with each other, it's males who are conditioned to be. I think that's a crappy reason not to sleep with a married person. It may be understandable but it's still not that healthy: it's not that person who caused the betrayal.

Being an adult and shrugging shoulders =/= not resulting to violence on who you were cheated with. The violence is such a socially conditioned male response.

"things got a little physical, as they usually do when you sleep with another man's wife" - is that always the case? Seriously, if I knew someone who was cheated on and reacted physically I'd hope they could find a more healthy way to express anger and hurt instead of a way guys are conditioned to.

I Honestly think it's the difference in the generations of the creators. Bloom is seriously a fav and i think she's a pretty un-problematic one at that.

he seemed like he was on the spectrum to me, too: but it didn't feel super stereotypical, though yes, a little broad.

Yeah, I would've like to have seen an episode of her getting kicked out before we see her getting the new job.

I liked the ending more than but agree on a lot of points. I still love the show despite its flaws but thought: "for how many seasons can they keep this up?" Once Kimmy and Crazy Ex's Becca learn to truly cope, the show will be over.

People have said (and I agree) that this and Jessica Jones are different sides of the same feminist-trauma coin.

I thought that was the point. It was a such a boring, typical dude name but Titus couldn't say it because it was Mikey's Boyfriend.

I thought it showed her taking on the persona of a dumb white lady sort of impacted her brain

So I just finished watching the series about a week ago on Netflix, and not only are these reviewes great, but this comments section is AMAZING. what a fun, pulpy, subtly subversive series with awesome viewers.

But I feel like the show takes what's iconic and flips it a bit to make it even a little subversive. Which is whyI like the suggestion of the triangle but not it really happening.

Hmm, I kind of see that. I'm sort of right between the experiences. Personality and age wise (30 y/o) I'm closer to Kimmy but have had a lot of the comforts of the college kids. And in the later episode someone refers to her as a millennial, so I just meant I don't think it's Fey knocking the entire generation.

Sure, but folks her age are millennials just as much as the college kids. It's a wide swath.

I thought the treatment with Mikey reflected some real growth.

No argument about the gentrification but the hero of the show is a millennial.

Is the Whitney reference a throwback to Kimmy's line in the pilot? "And you are gonna sing at the Grammys with Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson!"
