I’m familiar with Matt Drudge, but I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a picture of him, so I never really had a conception of what he looks like.  When I saw the photo above I thought Billy Eichner was playing R. Crumb, pre-mustache.

Hasn’t been the same since they stopped putting cocaine in it.

I agree it’s spinning its wheels a bit in the second season, but there have been some great episodes. On the one hand I didn’t like the Coach Beard episode because it seemed to halt the forward momentum, but on the other hand I liked it a lot because I’m a fan of those “one crazy night” movies like After Hours, which…

They definitely throw some red herrings and unexpected turns to try to defy your expectations. Like that time when Rebecca was trying to psych herself up and tell Ted the truth, and her ex-husband shows up, flaunting his new, now expecting, wife, and he was just being a resounding, hurtful, prick. I was sure,…

Nate is becoming a bit of a monster with his ego, but I don’t see that becoming a major problem; it’ll be sorted out once Nate is made to see that he’s being a knob. I just don’t want them to make any of the characters who’ve been redeemed (like Rebecca) do a 180 back into antagonistic behavior. I like these…

I’m happy Brett Goldstein won. I just got AppleTV+ about ten days ago, so I’ve been binging Ted Lasso. I hadn’t seen the show before, but based on photos I didn’t expect to like Goldstein at all because he just projects an aura of being intimidating and kind of a prick. Of course, I start watching, and Roy Kent…

I assume you’re joking, like Norm Macdonald saying he was shocked when he saw the “History of Comedy” documentary and the episode entitled “The Funnier Sex” wasn’t about men.

Bridemaids was a great 100-minute comedy. Unfortunately it was 125 minutes.

People get upset when comfortable, long-established institutions have to change, even if they didn’t really give a fuck about them on a day-to-day basis.

Because the 1920s called, they wanted their glasses back.

I still say he looks like a mashup of Michael Fassbender and Woody from Toy Story.

You fly back to school now, little Starling. [Whispers] Fly, fly, fly.  Fly, fly, fly.  Fly, fly, fly.

He’s no Scorsese, but he’s done some fine directorial work.  He’s a workman like Don Siegel or Walter Hill, not an artiste.  A story I heard somewhere was where he was directing a scene (I think in Bronco Billy) where a car is overheating and steam is billowing out from under the hood.  They had dry ice, and the first…

One of the first “spit out my drink” moments I remember from Norm was when he was hosting Weekend Update, and one of the news bits was that Michael Jackson had checked into Cedars-Sinai hospital for some mysterious illness or procedure, and while he was there he decorated his room with posters of young Shirley Temple.…

He is talented, very talented.  He also sucks.  The two aren’t mutually exclusive.  Talent is overrated, taste is king.

Never confuse talent or musical ability with sounding good. There’s tons of highly talented people who make shit music.

Fuckin’-A.

I feel like Michael Showalter should have had the title role based on his Miss Patty Pancakes performance.

I wasn’t raised in a super-religious household (mom was Methodist, dad didn’t go to church), but my mom watched the PTL Club. I would usually see it in the mornings before school. I was an independent thinker at a young age, and I recognized Jim and Tammy Faye were grifters, but Jim Bakker could straight-up preach. …

Definitely feels like less by-the-numbers than Falcon and the Winter Soldier turned out to be.
