Sleaze begets sleaze,and a person like Becky Steenhoek cannot be the one good person in the gang of locker-room-talking rejects from the Girls Gone Wild production crew. She can sue, but I have no idea if she will win.

We didn’t have boring conformity; the population on Disqus had gotten to a point to where the screaming fits had stopped and you could get away with the Sgt. Hulka line “Lighten up, Francis” if it seemed to be going over the top. And I predate the move to Disqus, so I remember how it was gimmick commenters, people…

And now, another list of awful titles for the film:

....Then there are complete non-players that get screen time in spite of the fact that they contribute either nothing or a historically unimportant footnote: A near-homeless Hawaiian guy is barely aware there’s an election even happening....

Nope, he winds up like many of the characters in the film, i.e., having little pieces of lead being placed inside their bodies.

After surviving the Kinjafication, is this comment section going to devolve into a pale copy of that hypersensitive Bard College dorm, the A.V. Club After Dark (aka “the AVoCaDo”)?

I saw the original House of Cards, it does not end well for Francis Ewan Urquhart. I don’t want to give it away, but I will describe it in four words: The Godfather, part II.

(Forgot to add that the deliberate semi-clunkiness of the smartphones and the clothing design [the lapel-on-lapel thing with the suit jackets] works wonderfully to add to the alienating effect.)

It’s tough to believe all of Sargus 4 operates on a mostly functional system of voluntary self-governance enabled by technology that’s only been ubiquitous here for about a decade.

Seth MacFarlane (or his writing crew) knew stuff, knew he (and they) would be sued into oblivion if he said things openly, so he turned it into gags on his TV shows and his occasional times hosting awards shows, knowing that a lot of it was “inside baseball” and would fly over most of the audiences’ heads.

Deathfarts?

.....but they’re trying to live up to Univision’s low-low standards!

We will call it “The Crapture.”

This show is slipping away, further and further into a vanilla blandness and it’s getting harder to give a damn about it (not that it was easy in the middle of the first season.)

Dark, man.

.....“totally incompetent, clearly senile, racist, and possibly illiterate president”....

There is no “next season”, this is it for Star Wars: Rebels Who Aren’t Trying to Take Abraham Lincoln Down.

Could be a TV show: The Mis-Adventures of an Assgrabbing ex-President.

After.

He seems to have harassed anyone who was famous and female and under the age of forty working in Hollywood for about twenty-five years, more or less. Why they just didn’t all buy handguns and shoot him en masse when he walked up to get an Oscar one year is beyond me.
