the Saved by the Bell reboot works because the stars are the new kids, not the original crew.  They give Slater et. al. enough to do for old people like me to get some nostalgia, but the show isn’t about them.  This show seems to still be completely about Punky.

I agree...I think for reboots like this you have to either make an attempt to update it and try to make it something a modern adult would watch (like The Conners) or just straight up aim it at children and have the children as lead characters like the Boy Meets World reboot. You can’t just rehash the same plots as the…

Who is this for? The youngest people who would have watched Punky Brewster when it originally aired are in their early 40s now, and the average super fan of the show is probably in their mid-to-late 40s. That does not strike me as a demographic that is going to subscribe to a new streaming service solely to indulge in…

I’ve read that this leaves his collegues scratching their heads. Obviously, Oz is in it for the money, but I read once that collegues didn’t just wholesale believe he was a grifter and that he had conviction in the junk he pushes.

The sad part about Dr. Oz is that he apparently is quite a good cardiothoracic surgeon.

Oh that’s a tough call. The “Alfie” video ended up being kind of sweet in the end and also the tune is incredibly catchy. The Olsen track is just a slaughterhouse.

The sad part about Dr. Oz is that he apparently is quite a good cardiothoracic surgeon. But I guess there's only so much you can discuss about pacemakers on a TV series.

I feel that way every time I realize (yet again) that Paul Thomas Anderson, Paul WS Anderson, and Wes Anderson, and are not the same person.

You really like dancing around whether or not you think Polanski raped a child or not. There aren't shades of gray in child rape, you fucking sicko

Except what you consider the inability to process more than one variable the rest of us clearly see as cutting away the bullshit. If people are ignoring your rambling nonsense. it’s not because they misunderstand your genius, it’s because it’s they see through it’s rambling irrelevance.

I notice that you still haven’t presented your thesis. You tell us all that there are many variables that we need to consider? Ok. Having considered them, what is your conclusion? What does “giving a damn about the child” mean to you?

I disagree. My comment was clear and to the point whereas yours including a lot of prevaricating verbiage with no clear thesis or theme. 

Looks like a lot of words that have nothing to do with whether Polanski is guilty of raping a child.

Lumping Polanski with Allen seems foolish. Allen’s situation is murky and hard to judge. But are you seriously arguing there is any question Polanski’s conduct was criminal rape of a child?

“The Farrow camp most certainly has its issues, like your family, like mine.”

I just want a sequel to Mario Sunshine. I actually find it very relaxing because of the resort setting and vacation vibe. It will never happen, though.

“Bill, you keep saying that. Are you just looking for an excuse to use heroine? You don’t need my permission. You’re a movie star. That’s your excuse.”

I like to imagine that this was just a thing that Bill Paxton used to throw out there all the time.

I am shocked, SHOCKED! to learn that James Cameron is capable of writing horrible, clumsy dialogue.
