Close out those apps: It's Love Week at The A.V. Club
There's no need to swipe right, we're bringing the love (and rejection) directly to you.

Kendrick Lamar delivered one of the finest displays of hate at Super Bowl LIX last night, but it’s now time for our annual celebration of love (and lust and rejection). That’s right, it’s Love Week at The A.V. Club, which we’re kicking off with a closer look at Ben Stiller’s history as a romantic lead. We’ll also have an AVQ&A on the couples that shouldn’t have lasted, an Inventory dedicated to the most crushing rejections in video games, plus features on horniness in games and movie soundtracks, as well as the patron saint of middle-aged singletons. With your help, we’ve revived 11 Questions so you can look for the first new installment—featuring Heart Eyes and Suze star Michaela Watkins—on Thursday. Finally, on Valentine’s Day proper, we’ll also launch a new miniseries from LaToya Ferguson on one of her favorite topics: the will-they/won’t-they. All of this and a playlist of our favorite love songs—who needs unsustainably sourced flowers or a hastily purchased box of chocolates?
