SNL with Molly Whatever was great. The Please Don't Destroy video was one of the best they've done, and Update was perfection. I started out not wanting to like the hostess but she was solid in all her skits. Keenan and the ugly se-xy chick carry that cast.

I always liked her. I thought her two big skits that she did homage to last night were good.Originally posted by French Rage View Post**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.

Yeah, it is. Blah. The only time that character got a chuckle or two out of me was the time her Catholic school was playing b-ball against a Jewish school and she had a crush on the star from the Jewish team.Comment

I'm starting to see Rick and Morty being mentioned in the past tense. And casually, not just as a hot take.
Maybe it's dead, Jim. Personally I would not like to see it continue with another voice actor. Roiland is apparently absolute scum, but this is his art. Leave it as his.
The legacy of R&M should have this painful center of biting on tinfoil. It's actually the perfect elegy. Roiland really was Rick. There is no happy ending.Cornell University

Here is my reaction to the last episode of Succession All spoilers obviously:
The death was great writing as it violated every death trope we have been trained in for a hundred years of mass entertainment. No last words, no dramatic teetering on the edge, just the sudden almost comical hook from off stage.
The reactions by the children were perfect. These absolutely horrific people are still thrown into an overwhelming universal human experience. We watch them swaying in and out of their genuine human frailty and their monstrous lack of empathy and character. Every actor was excellent, but Roman's performance was for the ages.
The second great set of performances was the execs on the plane. Again, these are highly flawed people -- not (other than Tom) monsters like the Roys, but still their enablers -- yet their nonsense is blown away by the reality of the moment. For a brief time, their bullsh-t business pathologies are suspended in the recognition of a moment of reality, and they are people. Then the derp drips back in, as the present is annihilated by the future and their machinations and their hypocrisies.
This was one of the best episodes of tv I've ever seen. All that remains now is for the children to destroy each other and themselves, but even that seems like anticlimax.Last edited by Kepler; 04-12-2023, 10:34 AM.Cornell University

It is hard to write a 30 minute scene that is simultaneously comedic, heart wrenching, aggravating and cringeworthy, but the writers on Succession pulled it off.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.Comment
