Dick Hardsqueeze!

I know you're joking but I'd like to put forth a theory— I'd argue that streaming killed the Golden Age. There's more options now, and arguably more great shows than there were during the golden age of TV, but the fragmentation of the market and the glut of shows designed for binge watching mean that the fan and

I'm so, so happy that Twin Peaks isn't coming back via a streaming service for that exact reason— can you imagine that show working at all without the mystery and community that the week-long wait creates?

You got a Danny Devito face-eating fetish too, huh?

That's a real loss. When Breaking Bad was ending, a local theater in town was screening the episodes while they aired, and a bunch of friends and I would go down every week. The best TV experience of my life was watching "Ozymandias" with a packed theater and my friends nearby, and the Netflix model removes that

That's even better knowing they had two years to fix it.

The best ruler the country had in likely its entire history was Gorbachev. Gorbachev, the man who presided over its collapse as a superpower, is the high point of their history.

It is courageously ugly and weird, much like Devito himself. I have a hard time calling it good but it really does commit to being the movie it wants to be, and I like Williams a lot in it.

Definitely don't be afraid to try prescription meds. I was too— I spent two years of brutal depression taking melatonin and valerian because I was worried that prescriptions would "change me." Getting an actual diagnosis and a Prozac regimen was part of a major turning point. I'm off it now— my life got much more

I know this comment is two weeks old, but I'm catching up on the series and wanted to thank you for a really astute point, both about Breaking Bad morality and D&D alignment.

Is he strong? Listen, chum.

Ryuji's half-Yosuke, half-Kanji. Which makes him pretty much exactly in the median of cool.

You've now made me realize that Mishima is just Japanese Milhouse. Thank you.

That's weird— Akechi is in this article, when he instead belongs in a garbage can.

I'm only at level 2 with him and I am convinced I'm going to have to dispose of a body within a week.

My bet? The movie was hastily rewritten to add more fun quips after pre-production, so it was too late to change the visual style.

The one upside of Jackson fever sweeping the nation is that it brings me one step closer to my dream of a historical biopic of old, bitter, murderous AJ played by Christopher Walken. God, I wish that movie were real and not something I made up while drunk.

The only thing more confusing than Thick as a Brick's subject matter is the fact that some people don't think it's the best Tull album.

Hey, Phil Collins did some great work post-Genesis. Like the drums on Peter Gabriel's third solo album.

Ugh, Seasons in the Sun. Second only to lung cancer as the worst Jacques-Brel-adjacent thing, if for no other reason than its complete apathetic shrug at even trying to do the original song justice.
