Whenever I see her name, I always think she played Punky Brewster back in the day.

One is a sandwich, and the other is what happens when they change a rule, but allow some people to continue to operate under the old rule, like back in the 80's when my brother got to buy beer at 19 because he had his birthday before they raised the limit to 21.

You know, I don't know if any of the film & TV, live-action Jimmys have had freckles. The older brother from Back to the Future certainly didn't, and looking at photos neither did the Smallville version or the George Reeves version.

Look, all TV shows come from ancient stories that were told thousands of years ago, died, and were buried deep beneath the earth. There are a limited number of story fields out there. Once The Epic of Gilgamesh has been pumped dry, Beowulf will be next. Before you know it, there are fewer and fewer story derricks…

SOA eventually lost me when it got to the point that I just hated every single one of the characters. It wasn't just that they were all completely awful people, but they were stupid, blundering, and tonally inconsistent.

Personally, I prefer Ewok with a sweet Carolina sauce, but many people swear the mesquite of a Texas barbecue brings out the underlying flavors.

So what Svengali-like power did Anne Wu have over Shane to get him to commit a rape (apparently) against his will? When he's dying he confesses that he just wanted to steal the book, but that "they made him" commit the rape. I figured this must have been someone who had the power to seriously mess him up - kill his…

We really need a show about Mayor Bobo. Just have Pernell & his remaining family die in an off-screen accident prior to season 2.

They are especially good with BBQ sauce

I am going to treat Flesh and bone as a belated sequel to the film Flashdance. Because Flashdance needs a sequel, and this is probably the last time a plucky working-class girl from Pittsburgh is going to realize her dream as a ballerina.

The trouble is that the people who categorized GenX were just lazy slackers who didn't bother doing a good job of painting millions of people with a broad brush

Whether Elba is the right "fit" for Bond is an open question. What is silly is the assumption that there is one particular "type" that can play the part. Americans usually describe this as "he must be white and Scottish, or white and English" as if these are the same thing. Never mind that Pierce Brosnan is a damned…

Nic Cage is named after Luke Cage, you know. Really. Nicholas Coppola is a huge nerd and took his screen name from Power Man (and named his son Kal-El).

I dunno. I think Idris Elba may be "too street" to play a brutal African Commandant.

When I first glanced at the photo for Hotel Transylvania 2, I thought Dracula was holding up the severed head of a child. For that brief moment, I really wanted to see that movie.

So, the obvious answer is that Mr. Jones is not a particular person, but rather a symbol of all the people who didn't understand what was happening with Dylan & his generation - "the establishment", for lack of a better term.

Ah, but Ben Stiller is the most powerful man in Hollywood. He is the secret leader of the Hollywood Cabal; the power behind the throne, if you will. And he is just setting Coogan up, letting him think everything is okay, until the moment he least expects and then: revenge.

I thought it was solid and for the most part a good way to wrap things up. I appreciate that they were able to give the story closure.

I have to agree. I liked the movie a lot, although it has been years since I saw it. I found the series to be off-putting and uncomfortable. I know that the actors being decades older than the characters they were portraying is part of the joke, but it just made the whole thing seem sad. Middle-aged people pretending…

I haven't actually seen this episode, so reading the review I was wondering whether "claims" was a misspelling or if there was some kind of really esoteric clams/claims joke in the actual show.
