Good pick. Written by one of my favorite working critics Drew McWeeny, who until recently worked for HitFix, and before that was Moriarty on AICN back in the day.

Speaking as someone who spent a lot of childhood time swimming in public access lakes with rafts just outside of "the shallow area", that fucking segment will be with me always.

Cautiously optimistic for this one

Saw the Misfits show in Denver last summer. It was a lot of fun. Strange watching a bunch of middle aged people shouting along to "Die Die My Darling", or whatever, but good, goofy fun.

Spaghetti cat sits down, depressed, to eat yet another bowl of spaghetti. He knows that the spaghetti won't fill this hole in him where happiness and joy should be, but he doesn't know what else to do, and eating spaghetti has always been his way, so he might as well.

"I'm getting too old for this snikt."

You're right in that Hollywood has a tremendous ageism problem, and I'm not trying to add to that here, but this would be stretching things a bit. Per IMDB, Watson will turn 27 in April, so she'd have been 25/26 when filming. Probably also stretching things a bit. I'm assuming they're aging the characters up a bit…

I feel like the gig economy is unavoidable, at least as it pertains to Uber like services. The technology exists, and people are willing to serve as drivers, and I don't really know what we do to avoid that. And when it's cheaper and easier to get an Uber than it is a taxi (which - outside of major metro areas is…

"The Early Middle Aged Mermaid" just doesn't have quite the same ring.

Pretty sure I'd actually rather have President Borat. At least he has some excuses for being ragingly anti-semitic and sexist.

Here's the thing - I don't like to bag on Lohan, because substance abuse is a bitch, and there but for the grace of God go I, and all that jazz. But - let's say that her career had been going gonzo for the last decade, and that her personal life was a model of perfection. This would STILL be an odd thing for her to…

Finished up The Underground Railroad by Coulson and Moonglow by Chabon in the last couple of weeks. I liked Railroad quite a bit, but Moonglow ended up being a real highlight of recent reading for me. I wasn't entirely sure about the whole "semi-fictionalized memoir" thing to begin with, but it really won me…

It IS a bleak book, but it didn't bother me as much as it seems to bother most people. As a metaphor, I think it's kind of great. EVERY parent is raising their children in a world that is strange and can be seen as hostile in comparison to the world in which the parent grew up. EVERY parent is doing their best to…

Bird-law. Gotta be bird-law.

The anal retentive collector in me isn't bothered so much about the fact that there are no releases past season 20, but the fact that there's A GAP WITH SEASON 17 AND SEASON 20 BEING RELEASED BUT NO SEASON 18 OR 19 MAKES ME BLOOD-CRAZY.

Nice! Glad someone found it to be of use.

That sucks. Not a problem I have at a puny Banner sized 5' 7".

Mister? I got your velociraptor - I think she broke her leg on the way down. I think she needs to get to a vet real bad. Send me down a phone and we can work this out…

Absolutely - I'm kind of expecting Cap to die off in one of the Infinity Wars, so my secret hope is that in order to get one more Evans Cap movie out, they go that route.

I don't normally shill like this, but for any Lazarus fans who'd like to give some $ to a good cause (Planned Parenthood) and get a sweet t-shirt paying a bit of homage to Senator Warren in exchange, I submit to you this link:
