They don’t even edit in English. Bilingual copy editing sure as hell isn’t in their budget.
I don’t know how accurate this is, but I recall reading somewhere that a lot of the god-awful humor in the first season was basically a smokescreen to get Fox to pick up the show — the network wouldn’t have been interested in “Seth MacFarlane does his own take on Star Trek,” so he sold them on “Seth MacFarlane scrapes…
OTOH, that season gave us the episode where Malloy was stuck in the past for 10 years and is so pissed at being left behind he hooks up with the iPhone girl from season 2 and doesn’t want to go back, so Ed says fine we’re going back another ten years and then your kid never exists. That alone was worth the entire…
Heather Locklear has a pretty big career. Melrose Place & Spin City were big shows in their heyday.
One of my everlasting 80's crushes. Caddyshack, Tron, and the CBS Indiana Jones ripoff show, Bring ‘Em Back Alive. I was always surprised that she didn’t have a bigger career being that she was stunning, intelligent, and had decent comedic timing but, when I think about it, none of the big-eyed, beautiful TV blondes…
This is a very thorough and thoughtful review. It also had me thinking that Brad Falchuk had somehow turned over a new leaf until I got halfway through and notes about aimlessness took over. At its worst, The Politician, Falchuk loses the concept altogether and for some reason makes his supposed-to-be-machiavellian…
I’m going to ignore the large majority of your question (mainly because I have no idea what the answer is, I’m not a comics person either) and focus on the most important part:
I am not a comic book guy so I ask with genuine curiosity . . . is it actually meaningful when a superhero is described as “one of the most powerful” in the universe?
No law says folks can’t really like their own movies.
Those weren’t even their shoes!
I don’t know what the big deal about Time’s Person of the Year is.
I won it in 2006.
Reading that made me laugh because it immediately reminded me of an extremely similar line from Broad City, spoken by Amy Sedaris’s weirdo real estate broker character:
from someone who can take or leave Swift, this is what happened: Kanye West took credit for making Swift famous and calling her a bitch and then saying she agreed to it because he’s an insane dummy. Kim Kardashian edited a call with Swift to fake that she consented to it. There was a music video with dolls made to…
I went to McDonald’s and the flurry machine was done. I felt cancelled.
I eagerly await Swift’s self-penned revision of that book, Taylor’s Version: Taylor’s Version.
She declares, “Make no mistake—my career was taken away from me.”
How is it even possible to victimize yourself when you have this much money?
“canceled within an inch of my life and sanity,”
Cancel culture is so severe that even Swift’s cancellation was cancelled.
