I like Michael Imperoli (I know late-state The Office was bad, but his one guest appearance as Sensei Billy was pretty great.), but holy moly would I avoid a show that starred Rappaport AND Ed Burns.

Even back during its run when all my friends raved about it and told me I needed to check it out, I always thought “A bunch of douchey bros get to live out the douchey bro wish fulfillment life? I think I’ll pass.”

Whatever you think of Baldwin personally, I contend that there’s no better example of a star at the height of his star power than him in Hunt for Red October.

As someone who grew up around the wicked bahd Mass accent and had parents with the inscrutable Down East Maine accent, I still was not prepared when I met my first PA native in college and he announced he was going to go do the warsh.

Unfortunately true, for me. I really, really loved this show and the end run took so much out of it for me.

...said the internet commenter...

Best pilot ever, IMO.

Not even being hyperbolic, I have never had a show I loved as much as Game of Thrones and was so disappointed in how it ended. I normally regularly rewatch my favorite shows from time to time, but the last season left such a bad taste that I haven’t done that with GoT.

I read this quickly as <em>Star War’s Republic High</em>, which...really doesn’t change the meaning at all it seems like?

Q: Which face is more punchable?

The timing certainly checks out for that; ROTK was 2003, so all those guys were still riding that wave...

What the what? The cousin one is the exact same letter to Danny Lavery in Dear Prudence this week in Slate.

Bride and Prejudice’s Indira Varma

Think kid in high school production of Guys and Dolls reciting their lines from memory...

100%. She certainly looked the part, which is great, but let’s be honest- we’re not talking about Meryl Streep here...

I’m biased because of my retroactive dislike of Burt Reynolds, but man is he an ass in that.

The Canary Trap!

I think cooking steak past medium/medium rare (depending on the cut) is the exception to the rule that everyone is entitled to their opinions/tastes. It should be illegal.

I feel like I have been living a lie. I even have a special “cast iron skillet-only” sponge I keep under the sink!

Hell, if Luke had been less on the ball, they would have blown it up with him on it.
