I mean Hollywood is run by corporations that are largely run by Republicans, but sure...

idk I think she is speaking broadly about pay gap, her career just happens to be in Hollywood. Ultimately, liberal or republican, it’s capitalism that wants to keep the patriarchy intact. But I don’t doubt a lot of movie executives and producers are republican.

I’m not a republican, and you can thank republicans for that.

“Like driving electric cars to avoid fossil fuels, without realizing much of the electricity powering the cars still comes from fossil fuels”

How does it matter if the production company is an independent contractor? If they made the hire, they bear some responsibility.

“Liz Lemon said something along the lines of, I’m not a crazy liberal. I just think people should drive hybrid cars.”

This is exactly why I don’t invite you over any more.

But like a lot of shows that got unfairly pulled, they did Blackface literally for the joke that it was thoughtless and insensitive and wrong.   Its at least not as bad as Community having what may be its best episode pulled because of a Drow joke

“Calls Senate candidate J.D. Vance a “rich twat....I mean, I’m a rich twat, but I’m not running for office pretending that I’m not.””

Civil Litigators: “Hold our beers.”

“There are two people who didn’t do what they were supposed to do... I want everybody to know that those are the two people that are responsible for what happened.”

While I discussed the pearl clutching about the rating and other things on a previous article, I’m still convinced the rating is because the MPAA is an arbitrary, extremely flawed organization full of out of touch, bean counting prudes.

Hold on - let me go get a pen and paper. 

“It’s only a matter of time before California’s groundbreaking legislation spreads to the rest of the country.”

Anything you name ‘white delight’ is going to struggle today. That could be anythin from a KKK dating site to an inter-racial porn site.

The ‘most people don’t go to McDs for healthy options’ factor? 

She is a nurse, she has benefits. She could get help and she received help in the past and was committed. I am tired of excuses of stigma or not having health care. She was not a person who had no other choices or options. Save the hand wringing for people who are or were truly destitute.

I am shocked, shocked to discover it’s been on for 5 years now. 

I like it. It’s not a high concept show like The Good Place or Community, but it’s a perfectly good family sitcom with actors who are old pros.

It’s ABC’s fifth highest rated show and it gets a bigger share of the coveted 18-49 demographic than their third and fourth highest rated shows.
