Tina Turner's turn as 'The Acide Queen' in that film is genius.

The Boyfriend is actually a great little film and I really think Russell's idea to 'open it out' actually works.
The Boyfriend is an unjustly neglected gem - not even mentioned here.
Patricia O'Neal? Dead? My god, she'd let herself go by the end.
Yes, be satisfied with the mediocre.
It wasn't enough to bother posting.
Just what the series needed. A long, drawn-out skit on a series that was in vogue two years ago and which The Simpsons already parodied poorly.

Awful, just awful. The last scenes were so vomituously sentimental, I nearly choked up my own skull.
Roday always puts in a blazing performance but Dule Hill is his absolute equal. I love them both.
