Sundance: “So next up is a documentary about the dangers of hyper-valuation in Silicon Valley...”

Matt Lucas does almost none of the comedy/chat/game shows that most other British comedians do (I think he’s done QI, but not sure about much else), so it’s rare to see him be funny off the cuff.

This doesn’t seem to be the most extravagently talented group, but I’m fine with that. The show seems more relatable and comforting to me when I can at least imagine producing something resembling what they’re making. The seasons where people have been nigh on professional can leave me a little cold.

Rainbows for the NHS is very much “a thing” in the UK at the moment, so not much of a stretch.

Everyone had the option to bring family so long as they stayed quarantined. For some there is no way they could be away from their kids that long or afford several weeks of around the clock child care.

There was a particular Dinosaur Jr. sweater that he wore last year that I would love but it was so expensive. Plus of course he is a waif and fashion houses hate fat people.

He said “Eating is cheating...” C’mon man!  What are you doing at a baking show, head over to the Pottery judging instead!? Maybe he has allergies though...

I’ve been doing “Name that designer” since Noel started.   The amount of money that’s on his back every series is a trip, considering that most non-fashion people will think it’s stuff that was thrown together as a joke. 

I guess it’s important that Noel remain healthy, but I really like knowing what someone who isn’t an experienced or professional baker thinks of the bakes. :-)

I think the best surprise about Matt Lucas is that he’s more acidic than I would have guessed, not having seen a lot of his projects maybe I would know that but the fact that he’s willing to be a bit mean and also take the piss from Noel keeps people on their toes. Rowan and Linda have barely made a single thing…

I liked the signature and technical challenges this week but I’m really over the challenges where they have to build stuff out of biscuits. To be fair before this season, I watched a lot of the specials with celebrities and there seemed to be a lot of making structures out of gingerbread on there.

Maybe it’s the sharp contrast to the outside world but this show is really back to hitting the sweet spot for me. Aside from exhausting, straight from central casting Rowan, the whole group is adorable this year and I’m rooting for them all.

well, i watched it and it was painful and uncomfortable and brought back a lot of the anxieties of being an 11-year-old girl.

yeh, i tend to watch movies before i criticize them. i’m weird like that.

....you haven’t watched the movie, have you?

No, but false accusation of exploitation of children is totally a partisan issue.

The Party led by the guy who bragged about walking into a dressing room full of nude teenage pageants is somehow very concerned about this film.

Ted Cruz, who’s opposed to this weird gross french movie but is totally ok with stumping for the guy who ran Miss Teen USA and bragged about being able to barge into the dressing room whenever he wanted.

Wasn’t terribly interested in this film until I heard Ted Cruz was against it.

Dear AVClub- why do I constantly have to x-out you guys imploring me to subscribe to your damn newsletter when I’ve already subscribed to it just so I wouldn’t keep getting the ads telling me to sign up??
