Even if he does the standard politician thing of having the younger assistants and aides give him names of “hip” artists to seem relevant I feel like Obama would actually listen to his playlist and learn who they were.

Say what you want about the sequels, but I remember walking out of the The Last Jedi and hearing some 30ish guy behind me whine, “Whatever, the prequels were much better.”

I know that’s your opinion, but your opinion is just wrong. The prequels are not better than anything. I literally cannot sit through “Revenge of…

Reasonable people can disagree about politics but Trump is different. It is one thing for someone to be misguided into voting for for a vanilla Republican like John Mccain or Mitt Romney, but Trump is and was plainly incompetant, unqualified, and openly corrupt. There is no reason to vote for him unless his cruelty…

Who we vote for indicates who we are as people. 

Counterpoint: Trump voters don’t deserve love, and that’s true for every last one of them.

I agree she shouldn’t stop seeing him (see my comment above).

who wants them on even ground?

Fully agreed, the lack of Compound V in The Boys themselves has made for some awful writing, and some real dumb, lucky moments. The lack of V has made, as pointed out in the article, a lot of lucky moments, too many, The Boys seem wildly incompetent. Even without V their plans usually fail, they have no real way of…

I think giving them powers takes the air out of the premise. By the same token, it’s clear they’ve exhausted the current repertoire of tactics The Boys can use against the Supes (blackmail, hiding, running, and more blackmail), so they ended S2 by having them link up with Mallory. So we’ll see!

The end of S2 included a subplot with stabilised V being nearly authorised for use in the military/law enforcement, then quickly being backtracked. However we know there was a shipment on the way to the CIA, and we know The Boys have been officially hired by the CIA as an anti-supe task force. It seems pretty cut and…

Totally agree. It seems as if the author thought the twist was “turns out those people were bad and you shouldn’t sympathize with them.” That’s very much the opposite of what they were going for.

I don’t comment here any more, but if I did I would entirely agree with this assessment. Shut Up And Dance is absolutely fucking amazing. It is absolutely not misery for the lolz, and it’s this level of criticism that’s the primary reason I’m not here any more.

Shut Up and Dance was fucking excellent. Nothing more to add.

Incorrect. This was a complete surprise out of nowhere. A+.

Which is weird, since it’s one of the rare sequels that manages to be better than the first movie.

$4,500 to fund a one-note joke game with a shelf life of the same three minutes it takes to play? Sign me up! Or can I just stroll on down to Spencer’s Gifts and buy it alongside all the penis-shaped pasta for bachelorette parties and blatantly misogynist t-shirt selections?

I honestly can't picture any of the Belcher kids ultimately being happy running the restaurant, Louise least of all. She'll go work for Fischoeder and end up owning the town. Zeke will end up taking over Bob's Burgers.

Hey everyone, it’s the Commissioner of True Comedy, here in our humble comment thread! Quick, someone get out the fancy cookies!

People focus too much on the Simpsons’ decline these days, but it’s pretty impressive how that was show was able to stay so creative and influential for eight or nine years. What other shows besides the Simpsons and Bob’s Burgers have been as consistent for that long?
