Yesterday distinctively felt like August from the beginning of the day and all throughout the night. When it gets hot like this at around a time it’s not supposed to, I try to keep the ceiling fan on and steer clear of air conditioning. Only it’s been so bad that I’ve needed both.
Anything to...
None of the posts here are even gaining any traction, so as a “joke” it’s just slinging leftover pasta at the wall and watching as it slowly foddles down.
All by yourself.
Pretty decent run tonight.
And they technically still premiered the second season anyway. I’m interested to know the budget of the puppet show as they only went by few select favorites.
The forums didn’t exist back when last year’s stunt went down (thank the purge), but you can check out the “thread” on the unofficial temp which was just my dry reaction to what was shown. From there, you can even watch last year’s event as of me typing this right now.
[as] April Fools 2023...
And to be fair, Fry would still be the most compelling and layered character during the show’s prime, especially comedy wise. Although I do certainly miss the early characterization for both.
Some shows just value having the resident punching bag.
I think they took a liking to Hermes being...
You talking-baby-drug-dealer’d a landmark show from the 70s that many believe belongs in a museum of some kind. It’s really not your place to be angry at feedback.
I mean I can get being annoyed with hate-watching and parasocial trailer bashing. It’s just undoubtedly peculiar to be involved with an adult cartoon remake of Good Times and be super defensive about it instead of understanding.
I’d have to imagine the PlayStation 2 game only happened as it did because of the Matt Groening name.
Granted, FOX had countless game tie-ins, but Futurama got theirs right as it was already cancelled and dragged across the dirt by the network.
I thought it’d be nice to have another console...
Three different down-and-outs uniting together because their crazy world had nothing else planned for them.
It’s a beautiful glimmer of hope for the hopeless. Something about early prototype Bender being motivated to bend window bars, and to find his own purpose from that just made me feel...
I consider Space Pilot 3000 one of, if not, the strongest TV pilot there is. I think as awkward as season one may appear in general, that first episode got everything right.
That being said, I’ve got a warm spot for A Flight to Remember and Hell is Other Robots. Episodes like those definitely...
Pix taken by yours truly.

I don’t feel like pasting the little foreword I wrote for the Hulu thread. Or thinking about Hulu. Nonetheless, the show’s very valuable to me still, and am glad to have caught it when I did.
[Lifeguard Meg]
Hmm.
Well, it ultimately became uninteresting the second the real motive was to have an awkward “Peter and Meg touch mouths” plot.
And then you got Brian & Stewie’s coffee shop thing being relentlessly boring from start to finish. They really had to drag in Principal Shepherd...
Unoriginal answer, but Powerhouse and City. Checkerboard bleeds into that as well.
Powerhouse had a good grip on what made Cartoon Network its own experience. City was one where even when I was older and not watching religiously, there was just no denying how everything was packaged together...
I was talking more along the lines of taking a Celine Dion song and adding in transitioning audio about the Towers being hit. Because everyone took that seriously.
And some radio stations were either weird about how they covered the tragedy or later dodged from it altogether to attend to their...
You’d be surprised, radio stations got the most of it. Some very ridiculous edits and needless studio plugging for something non related, because commercial waits for no one. Some even called out NY vendors for wanting to profit off T shirts before the rubble was even anywhere close to being...
I completely agree that the doc was grossly unprofessional and plastic at some parts. It just was, I wish the series was produced by people not wanting to make a pop culture podcast.
But of course I’m going to let the real life pain involved be the main takeaway.
I’m done with Grimsburg as of now. I only gave HouseBroken one watch because of one Sunday it was on, and it didn’t surprise me how much it wasn’t for me at all.
AD is just generally disappointing for my tastes. Sit Down, Shut Up was one I kinda wanted to succeed and that’s as dead as 2009 disco.
The parent name deserves equal scrutiny so I see that as an irrelevant outcome.
It could happen, sure. It doesn’t solve the problem or magically erase what’s been there for 30 years. Disbanding the name itself would be a tremendous blow for them that they could spin into being “for a better...
^ I remember having this on the corner of my mind sometime after “Family Guy Video Game!” came out.
ATHF Zombie Ninja Pro-Am failing as hard as it did probably deterred Adult Swim from trying a Robot Chicken or Boondocks console game. RC would be complicated, but during the height of...
Hey not for nothing, but if there’s a story on the news that’s related to, oh I dunno... RAPE, and young adults are brave enough to come out with their stories; I just think mayyyybeeee it’s not all that smart to go “harrumph! I knew about this the entire time but said or did nothing! Why’s...
[Take This Job and Love It]
Not bad for another anthology episode.
The last one that was this decent was Mike Henry’s last gig as Cleveland, and I’ll say the Lethal Weapon segment from this episode has Zahir doing an exceptionally better job than usual.
The espionage parody was appealing as...
I just think people below the age of 30 and 25 should do a better job not typing like tipsy sorority half-wits when responding to rape.
“Omggggggggg he took her innocence?????? He diddddd that??????? Let me post a low res image of Spongebob crying to go along with this, because that’s also...
Much of the public opinion elsewhere has just been so stunted and emotionally immature that I simply can’t help but pick away at it.
Shouldn’t be seeing so many cartoon gifs and puppy dog faces in response to a negligent mother letting her 15 year old kid be attacked by a sodomite.
I’ve seen a...
I have access to the doc and am preparing myself to stop flip-flopping and actually give everything a watch.
I’m really hoping *mostly* everything’s handled properly and it’s not 172 minutes of trauma presented like popcorn fodder. I can’t relish the can of worms this will be on myself when I’m...
[Teacher’s Heavy Pet]
First time Lois’ had a gig at James Woods/Adam West High since, well... 4 years ago?
Technically it’s the third time if you bother counting “Prick Up Your Ears.”
Last time it was only done to spark up a forgettable plot between Lois and Connie. The latter went right...
