The best part of the 2nd Conan clip above is when Andy Richter describes Norm’s joke as like having someone take you on a 4-mile hike to show you a dog turd. Norm falls off the couch laughing and shakes Richter’s hand.
At face value good news, since I’m really enjoying this season so far. However, I do worry if this means the case won’t be fully resolved at the end of this season. Hopefully there’s some good resolution and it’s not just a cliff hanger. (Like how the Flight Attendant did a good job resolving season 1's arc while… Read more
She’s also a card-carrying member of the Gabrielle Union.

I really want Anderson to make a retro scifi-adjacent movie someday. Like Life Aquatic, but in a space station / spaceship / space colony of sorts. The 70's-style Alien-esque technology alone would be glorious.
Whoo boy. The misogyny in these comments. Nothing scares a dude more than a powerful woman getting her money.
...as COVID-19 cases rise due to that pesky and highly contagious delta variant self-centered idiots shunning a vaccine that protects them and those around them, dooming us to a perpetual game of Whack-a-Mole as their carelessness fuels the rise of more and more variants.
There’s an alternate timeline where all those stunts don’t fuck him up and where Philip Berk doesn’t grope him and I wonder, in that timeline, what his arc would have been. Read more
