I just wanted a chance to bring up the sale and purchase organically

Way to cross-promote Univision owned site synergy!

Said it before and I'll say it again: Predator 2 is fantastic. It's weird as hell, there's some seriously regressive racial elements and just a few too many flayed hookers but Glover is great in it and the world building is that perfect "Grimy Near Future Dystopia" that 90s movies often tried to present but too

Remember when Mr. Bean fought Sinn Fein? When 'Blue Peter' was airlifted into the Cyprus conflict? When the boys who wrote The Beano fought in the sands of Suez?

The cat allergy is like an evil O. Henry or twilight zone twist. Like if I were reading it in a story I'd say it's too cruel to be believable.

All I know is that it has made me legitimately excited for the Sonic movie.

I'm actually kind of worried about the future of the show now. Talking about the tv spinoff with such disdain, no "after dough" show, Wiger genuinely sounded broken. Now that we know the Spoonman is actively courting death with his cat allergies and apnea…. I only hope that the candle burning so bright can last a

Seeing how well Samantha Bee and John Oliver are doing really makes it obvious there were some serious screw ups on Comedy Central's end. Either one of those would have made an excellent replacement host while still maintaining the tone and bite of the show at its best.

That actually sent me looking for what the most "controversial" Broadway show actually was. Not counting off-Broadway productions like "The Death of Klinghoffer" or "Corpus Christi" it looks like the original staging of "Hair" or "Jesus Christ Superstar" attracted lots of genuine controversy when they were released

What? You mean Peter Parker killing Mary Jane through his radioactive semen wouldn't make for a good second act break?

He wanted to marry his Muddah and murder his Fadduh.

Hmm, and I guess the fact that it's still a good show, ahead of its time and ended relatively on top (notwithstanding Puerto Rican day parade). I just can't think of any comparable show still with that cultural cachet this long after it ended. No one is out there with "Everybody Loves Raymond 2000" or "Friends- but

What's with the Seinfeld resurgence the past few years? Constanza memes and macros, Modern Seinfeld, books about it, interviews, Twitter accounts, etc? Just a good show getting recognition on an anniversary?

Oh it's pretty clearly causal. Kid was a genius prodigy, enrolled at 16 into Harvard, subjected to intensive interrogations designed to eliminate all of the subject's ideals and beliefs through marked antagonism. He then spent the next thirty years trying to "explain himself" and reclaim his beliefs to the point that

I want to see these rock aliens making love dammit!

Jesus-

I wondered about that also, how are breeds of animal formed in the Bojackverse? The whole "Labrador peninsula" as the endemic source for that breed seems to posit that there was no Columbian exchange- unless there was also Beothuk genocide/ First Nations displacement that we weren't shown.

Would they be the equivalent of modern day homeless? Some sort of counterculture? Or maybe something closer to an uncontacted indigenous tribe? Who and what are these horsevolken and how do they function in this society?

Something about the concept of feral humanimals was a little distracting. Without having been shown an analogue to the wild horsepeople it took me out of the scene.

Funner fact: carisoprodol is the bomb and is available over the counter in Mexico.
