I watched every episode of this show, yet I don't remember who half these people are.

Pope-a Don't Preach

The minimum age for AARP membership isn't 65, but 50(!) That's why they just put Brad Pitt on the cover of their magazine.

FRENCH FRIES: Remember, potatoes are a vegetable too!

I have a question: If a dude found a woman he worked with lying outside an apartment, so drunk that she was nearly unconscious, and he kissed her on the lips because he thought she was attractive, and she started yelling because she didn't know what was going on, would that be funny?

Is this really a good idea for a show? If the genders were reversed, it would sound something like this:

Porter also says that tippers in general "are typically male."

If tipping is about "sex and power," maybe that's partly because men are the ones doing it.

This could be a funny idea...

If you play this song backward, you can hear him saying, "Jesus also had a wacky best friend named Larry, and wait till you read about all the wacky misadventures he got into!"

At least that looks like Washington, unlike the weird photo-illustration on the cover of

It can't be worse than the "Devious Maids" show I've been seeing billboards for.

There are serious conditions that botox is used for, and it sounds as if this might be a safer alternative for some of them.

I don't think she's saying she literally paid her friend to lose weight, but that she offered to fund any weight-loss efforts her friend wanted to try. That's a big difference.

The show doesn't completely lack diversity. They've featured a snide, egotistical gay man, a sexually aggressive Middle Easterner, a hot-headed Irishman, and the maternal grandfather was a wealthy Jewish businessman. (Okay, so maybe they're not so good at avoiding the stereotypes....)

If she's anything like the cleaning service Yelp recommended for me recently, she'll show up late, look around your apartment disapprovingly, spend 20 minutes on the phone with her "manager," sigh loudly, then dust you lightly and ineffectively for an hour before grabbing her money and leaving.

To me, that looks most like Brenda Strong, who played Elaine's frenemy Sue Ellen Mischke.

I agree that she's both a cool character and gorgeous. But it's still a cliche that every female computer genius has to be a model-beautiful actress in sensible hair and glasses.

Isn't the whole point of acting to inhabit another person?

It's no coincidence that the golden age of the movie femme fatale was around the '40s and '50s — when smart female characters had few legitimate paths to power, so they used their sexuality to take advantage of men who actually earned money and did things. But times have changed since then, right? From Boyle's…
