Oh, it's not like I'm incapable of having The Talk about polyamory/nonmonogamy with someone (a far more fun discussion than the Trump Talk, regardless of how it goes).

Always? Not even close.

Lady Gaga's sketch about being old and forgotten, clinging to memories of her musical fame, is another recent outing which stayed with me more for its poignancy than its comedy.

Not that I necessarily disagree, but I think that last part is the point of such phrasing.

Weren't reviews of 2 Broke Girls stopped midseason?

No, it's quite a bit worse, unfortunately. At least Mistress of the Dark has that "Schlocky Eighties Comedy" vibe working in its favour, but Haunted Hills has no such benefit.

It's gratifying to see Benjamin and Jake Sisko included—I'm a writer and around the same age as Cirroc Lofton, so I grew up watching (and longing for) that positive father-son dynamic, and I was glad I had the chance to convey that to Avery Brooks when we met in person a few years ago.

Liked for excellent commenter-name synergy.

One of my few complaints about this episode was Jess's mispronunciation of Portuguese—she made the common mistake of assuming it should sound the same as Spanish.

No, these COPS are fighting crime in a future time.

"R-rated movie" and "watched primarily by kids" are far from mutually exclusive.

I still do this sort of thing—but to be fair, I also obsessively do it when I'm purchasing any media (books, magazines, movies, you name it).

Great Minds with Dan Harmon sounds a lot like a (short-lived) Canadian show I loved in the Nineties called Witness to Yesterday. The premise to that half-hour series was very similar—the host interviewing various historical figures, without explaining how that was possible—but the tone wasn't comedic.

I admire him for making a life for himself where he so clearly gets to do what he wants (Isn't that what most of us aspire to in our own lives?), without being fixated on someone else's idea of what the career escalator should look like.

If you feel that way, be glad you've never seen the actual live-action Clerks sitcom pilot.

I continue to be a fan of Kevin Smith and his work. The continuous bashing he gets on here is one of the few things I dislike about this site's commenter culture.

I was a huge fan of this series as a kid, which makes me so glad to see it covered in this column…

As I told someone else in another reply, the series definitely holds up as long as you have a tolerance for it looking like the low-budget Canadian series of the Eighties that it is.

As long as you can accept looking at the low production values with adult eyes, the underlying material definitely holds up.

Several of the villains were purely CGI characters, which were indeed 3D-modelled, but I still agree with the more expansive definitions of CGI mentioned above.
