Well, they did do a little celebrity bashing. I don't know how familiar American viewers are with Boris Johnson, but if you're not, the British Foreign Secretary guy that they call… he's a real person, who actually has that job, and does look like that. The only thing they didn't really nail was the voice, but I can…
The Simpsons started going downhill with the Frank Grimes episode. Homer is the heart of the show in its golden years, and that episode basically turned him into an arsehole purely so that someone could "observe" that he's always been like that… which he hadn't, until that point. He'd acted irresponsibly in the…
The irony is that libertarians (which the alt-right generally claim to be) generally frown on people not taking personal responsibility. Surely that would extend to anyone who turns into a towering arsehole purely because the lefties hurt their feelings?
I might be way off the mark here, but I'm pretty sure the girls-dumping-the-boys thing is a riff on Lysistrata, an play by Aristophanes in which - in effect - men's wives go on strike for some political end.
If he was a schemer, I'd say yes. But he's clearly winging it.
Worse than Lice Capades?
'Member the Munchkins? 'Member the Munchkin that hung himself though?
The point about PC Principal "creating" Mr Garrison is - imo - a bit wide of the mark.
While it was nice to see Boris Johnson rendered visually as a South Park character, I'm a bit disappointed that they played him as a generic comedy British guy. He's soooooo much more awful than that. The only thing I can think is that, because they needed to get some coherent expository dialogue out of him, they…
OK, the first rule of South Park is, anything Mr Garrison says/does is not the "right" thing.
If we don't see Rhett Snow again I will be mildly disappointed.
They "did" Bernie Maidoff, I guess that kind of counts.
The "regular cast" was pretty much everyone who'd been in the show's regular cast before, even if they were only in a few episodes - Lady Gaga wasn't in many, Evan Peters was in three, I think?
Yeah, about that: I understand that the actor who played Cricket was a guest on Spirit Chasers, but… he seemed to think that he had the same kind of psychic abilities as Cricket? I thought that was weird.
I mean, I guess I can see the argument in the same way that I can see why Star Trek fans hate "Shades of Grey" more than "Sub Rosa", or why X-Files fans prefer "FPS" over "Teso Dos Bichos". In some shows, being bad in interesting ways is unfortunate, but being slightly less bad but dull is inexcusable.
That is kind of a weird thing that I never quite understood. It's hard to imagine Shelby and Matt claiming that that thing was a nice powdered-wig-wearing dandy gay, because why on Earth would they?
Based on a few previous tropes (mainly in Coven - KNOTTY PINE?!), I assume AHS takes the Pratchett-esque view that your afterlife is some combination of what you expect and what think you deserve. Obviously it's twisted a bit for the sake of horror, but hey.
… see, I haven't actually watched Hotel. I'm now thinking that, if I just don't watch it, Queenie is fine.
I'm going to assume that he and Dominic hooked up. Hooks were probably involved, anyway.
