Might be hard to get Pondy now that he’s a family man on Young Sheldon...

She’s supposed to be early 70s, right? That’s a little young to get regular Alzheimer’s, and someone with early-onset Alzheimer’s doesn’t live 10-ish years. Plus, it seems like she’s having fairly serious problems already. Feels a bit like the writers have put themselves in a corner (especially with next week’s…

I think NBC knew it was their worst new show... they barely gave it any promotion over the summer, and what promos they did have didn’t show any actual clips from the pilot.

I think the entire review could have just been “I do not like Michael Rapoport and I feel he should not have been invited to guest on the show.”

That’s two harsh Utica burns in two seasons!

Poor Cynthia Garrett... she hosted a late-night talk show for several months, and doesn’t even have a Wikipedia page...

Nobody said it?!? Well, I’ll say it: Lindsay must have drunk a loooooooot of urine...

If you notice, Lily never appeared on screen with anyone else. That suggests to me that the actress (or her parents) didn’t really want her involved with this episode. So what Kyle is hoping for maybe couldn’t be done.

Does Kristen Wiig make bad choices, or does she have bad luck? By my count, this is her 5th movie that looked good on paper but isn’t very good on film (Walter Mitty, Zoolander 2, Masterminds, Downsizing are the others). She’s not the star of any of them, but you can’t say she’s great in any of them, either.

I quite liked Everybody Wants Some. I may be the only one who did.

I never did figure out what the hell Mallory was in space, or what her character was a reference to.

I’m not a fan. Found them to be spicy just for the sake of being spicy, and the type of spicy where you wonder if the heat is covering up for something else.

Also, we see how the Sea Captain lost his leg!

Other than more Underworld or Resident Evil sequels, what else does Screen Gems have worth bringing back? Is anybody clamoring for Wedding Ringer 2?

Four episodes in, and I am deeply confused by Malory. Is the whole “electromagnetic entity occasionally becomes corporeal” from some scifi thing that’s not on my radar? Why does she still drink? Could a swirling ball of energy even process alcohol?

Agreed. I absolutely despise the “gotta get my kid into a fancy preschool” sitcom plotline, because it’s such an only-in-LA thing, and I think sitcom writers don’t realize that. Kind of like how every sitcom features the phrase “hard pass” now... that’s an LA thing from pitch meetings, it’s not something random people …

One correction (and in this case, imdb is wrong, which is where I’m sure Gwen got it): Jim Henegan, Jr. didn’t write any screenplays. Jim, Sr., Gwen’s ex-husband, worked as a screenwriter in the ‘50s and ‘60s after leaving the Hollywood Reporter (where, this episode alleges, Gwen ghost-wrote some of his stuff because…

The drink was a hologram! But it broke anyway.

And some scenes were shot in broad daylight, which made me wonder: what time does the sun set in San Diego? Are these people there all day? Does the Janitor have a serious problem?

I just couldn’t get over the outdoor bar concept. Where do they go to the bathroom? They make it pretty clear that Abby doesn’t let people in her house. How did they hook water up out there in the backyard? Seriously, why haven’t the police shut this down yet?
