I just want to thank you, this may be the most hilariously dumb argument I’ve seen since the Kinjapocalypse; way to step up for a fictional character though!

Precious? You’ve never been savagely beaten by a gang of Scandinavian fishermen, have you?

Considering how many AV Club writers have swapped depth for self-indulgent persnicketyness in their writing, I’d think you guys would be totally on board for this sort of thing.

I’d swear one of the sketches looked a lot like the photo of the mother from the unsolved case in ep 1, but I really, REALLY don’t want to go back and check.

Eh, I just chalk it up to the grand film and television tradition of supposedly regular people turning up for Halloween in suspiciously professional-grade costumes.

He’s got a bit of a weird streak going at this point, even DRL’s been in a Halloween show by now.

Disney’s handling of this show has been weird as hell from the start, and continues to this day: There’s no box set, but there is a line of companion books, including a really nice repro of Journal 3 Hirsch expanded himself after the show which also comes in a $150 ultra-luxe version with removable props and…

I’m surprised people had a problem going the distance, the whole thing is 110 minutes long, and GORGEOUS.

There’s also the possibility somebody “downtown” sees an opportunity to snap up some more real estate and lets him swing for it instead. It’s a David Simon show, so I’d go 50/50 either way.

This is getting into some deep comedy nerd shit, but the complete lack of emphasis between “common” and “bitch” was a stroke of genius.

That’s been my understanding, just dusting off the ol’ Banality of Evil trope. Personally I feel like inglorious Basterds already did a fine job covering the same ground, but we probably could use another It Can’t Happen Here given the moment we find ourselves in.

Every time I ask myself, “How can the Kinjapocalypse suck even more?”, and every time, they FIND A WAY.

Cool; not exactly a Benetton ad, but better.

Yeah, that first one’s rough, not terrible, but it’s mostly just table-setting. Thankfully things pick up next episode, right around the point the Statue of Liberty starts chain smoking and giving life advice.

There’s definitely a hint of FG there, but more like the early, good episodes, before McFarlane got bored and let the whole thing become a sad, repetitive shell of its former self. It takes a couple of episodes to set itself up, but I think Big Mouth actually squeezes a fair amount of wit and heart in between all the…

Ugh, phrasing.

Any description that lacks the word “skullfucking” isn’t doing the situation justice.

I do like who they’ve chosen for the most part, but it is a bit monochrome so far. Hopefully they’ll find some actors of color for the kids’ roles.

Who wouldn’t want a clock that looks like a glowing hemorrhoid pillow?

I dunno about “best”, but Fox is definitely in the top tier of Anderson’s movies for me, both because I really like it, and because it’s the moment he really stepped up his game in terms of learning to incorporate full blown action sequences. I find I’m thinking about that final speech a lot these days.
