“If Ethan Hawke views the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the modern-day Western, what does he consider the modern-day Western to be?”

I also think it hasn’t been stated enough: Jaida blocked Jinkx after episode 3 and helped The Vivienne win the lipsync in episode 4, and Jinkx still gave her a bonus star last week. That’s some impressive work, staying in someone’s good graces while actively working against them.

Who, exactly, runs the CW, and why are they so into Archie and Jughead and the gang? I remember those comics as being relatively niche. How did a superfan become a network exec?

This would only be of interest if Courtney Stodden appears as a plaintiff charging Tiegen herself with harassment.

I agree. But it’s useful that you can circumvent it by winning in back-to-back weeks, and it’s useful that Jinkx is so well rounded that she’s a threat for the win virtually every week.

Is “now we’re worse than exes, we’re friends” a direct line from the Jane Austen, or is this a....loosely historically accurate bit of cinema?

Yeah, I certainly thought so, but the article refers to Lorne Michaels as her former SNL boss, so I wondered if one of them left SNL and it didn’t trickle out yet?

“Strong’s form Saturday Night Live boss Lorne Michaels....”

Agreed, but the only thing we know for certain is nothing about this seems positive for the 18-year old: either an unhinged violent person is legitimately safer than their parents, or they have been groomed and brainwashed.

Yeah, but considering Greenwald’s relevance to the story would’ve been 5 years ago, that’d make Giamatti 5 years too old. And Greenwald’s.....well preserved, I guess?

This is the kind of method acting I can get behind.

This reminds me of Susan Sarandon’s soap opera actress character in that episode of ‘Friends’ who said her lawyers told her she couldn’t slap fans anymore.

“Early reports indicate Hamm will play a sadistic Midwestern crime boss who gets off on dragging his victims around his hideout by their testicles using the claw end of a hammer.”

Which makes the decision to make a podcast dedicated to recapping the show that has pigeonholed them a....curious one.

This is the 3rd week in a row where I felt Raja should’ve been a winner. Sigh.

Before calling my local movie theater, I would insist he whip it out and start jerking off for me. And make eye contact the whole time.

Maybe we should rephrase it to the past tense of “they both were talented”, because clearly time or wealth or something has dulled the talent.

She’s about 5 years late.

Which is funny, because I thought he had already left.
