I like Real Time and was a fan of Politically Incorrect. Do I agree with everything Bill Maher says? Hell no, but I think the author simply doesn't like him, and that is the core of the article. Nothing said here adds any nuance to the criticism already leveled at Bill Maher. Add to it, the author uses racism to

"…because the HBO audience would probably watch Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon play checkers for seven hours."

I listen to his podcast every once in a while, and dig him interviewing folks, but wasn't blown away by his recent stand up special. But you have to like the guy so I'll stick with it. I anticipate a lot of cameos so that could be either good or bad. I thought Artie Lange would be taller. I also hope I'm braver than

I'm convinced this is all just an elaborate prank/fuck you to Donald Trump. If I'm right? Well-done China!

Kinda reminds me of "RKO 281" with regard to the crap Orson Welles went through with "Citizen Kane."

I definitely enjoyed this open. It seems like Rick and Co. are back on track to give Negan his due. I gotta admit that the atmosphere is contagious. I'm hopeful that new alliances with the "boat people (?)," Hilltop and the Kingdom will be fruitful and gloriously violent.

So many people gone or nearly gone in this season and while I'm anxious to see Season 5, I know it will pale in comparison. Ragner, Aslaug, Sigurd, Helga, Torvi (I guess?) and one of my favorites, King Egbert. Linus Roache really deserves as high praise as Travis Fimmel. Egbert was a worthy adversary and they both

"What’s truly remarkable about the film, though, is the way it conceals a small-scale human weepie in the folds of a big-scale mystery, sneaking up on you with the force of its feeling."

I know Mickey Rooney is dead, but damned if Victoria Jackson isn't a dead ringer for him.

This popped up on Netflix and I was bored and high so I said wtf, expecting a "so bad it's good scenario," but I was unpleasantly surprised. It wasn't that bad. It was better than "Suicide Squad," which no amount of cannabis (nor Margot Robbie's ass) could save. I kinda saw it coming, but it was oddly satisfying that

But he has 10 gajillion dollars!

I know you don't get to do whatever you want and that it's probably a bad idea to get in fights with the guards.

So I learned today that a) Michael Rapaport has a podcast and that b) he's a Chris Brown fan, but c) not an Aziz Ansari fan.

I'm glad to see the community is on board with A-. I loved this episode and every episode this season has been riveting. I'm sad Ragnar is gone too, but he went out like Ragnar; on his own terms. Of course there's going to be a period of adjustment with the re-org, there always is. I'm psyched for the finale, and I'm

Dude can't even get billionaire right. Where are the exotic, endangered species snacks? Where are the snacks that come with their own Sherpa? Or does Lays make a truffle oil flavor delivered by an actual angel? Sheesh.

She looks like Skyler White, which automatically repulses me.

Stray Observations:

Oooo…I can't wait until it loses to "Moonlight" at the Oscars. The backlash will be delicious. FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!

Another douchebag I don't get. There are tons of pop artists out there who can dance and do what Chris Brown does without the "extracurriculars," but this guy still makes albums and fills concert halls. What's wrong with you people?

I don't get Piers Morgan at all. I mean, the few times I've seen his interviews I just get that he's a douchebag and not to my taste, but even so, I can usually understand why someone has appeal even if I don't personally like them. I don't see who would want to listen to this prick at all. Not right or left, liberal
