TV 20 - Sorry no fancy title

I think this latest episode of severance is quickly moving into my top episodes of all time

Not sure I can watch it too many times

But like The Constant or International Assassin, this is one I’ll remember by name

You know she's like 60 years old?

They say Asian women don't always age well. Not in her case.

"They" are idiots. I can hardly ever guess the age of women around here because they're almost always much older than they look.
 
What does Shane Gillis have on Lorne Michaels? It has to be something good because that’s the only way I think he could ever get a hosting gig. I actually fast forwarded through the monologue. I’ve never done that. I made it through Weekend Update and then I stopped.

It's easy to pad out one's routine when it's 50% pauses for shocked reactions to your edginess that never actually came. The Shelby Foote / Ken Burns thing was actually very good, it just took him half the monologue to get around to actually doing something.

Am I the only person who liked his monologue?

He was playing the audience, getting them up to the line of discomfort, like Kaufman or Norm. He isn't as good but they were giants. He is trying to do something unsafe and I like the attempt.

This. I have never heard anybody say Asian women don't age well. I haven't a whiff of yellow fever but JFC in their 40s they look 20.

The exact opposite of redheads, sadly.
 
I cannot believe I’m saying this

Love is blind Minneapolis is so goddamn embarrassing. Where did they find these guys??? Only one of them seems like a decent human.

These women pressing them on where they stand on gay rights, abortion and the guys stumbling and saying uhhhhhh

Don’t fuck these conservative assholes

I’m tempted to start hanging out downtown until I run to Dave

It's pretty horrible.
 
Severance continues to deliver the goods and has miraculously managed to avoid getting stale without also becoming trite, instead it was unsettling, moving and heartbreaking. At this point I do not think that

^Is my spoiler visible to anyone else?

Also we finally get to see serious screen time for Dichen Lachman who is absolutely my new favorite crush.

I just assume that Gillis

a) Knows someone influential on the writing staff.
b) Lorne Michaels feels bad about Gillis being rightfully cancelled and kicked off the cast.
c) Some NBC executive is demanding more generic white guy comedy (“he drinks beer!
That’s funny!”).

Gillis is hugely respected amongst his peers, has been blowing up on the circuit ever since SNL fired him including selling out arenas in record time for a comedian, is one of the most popular podcast guests in the industry, and S1 of his show Tires was a huge hit. Who knows about his long-term shelf-life but you guys are definitely in the minority at the moment.
 
Got caught up with Love is Blind going into the Friday weddings. Spoilers:

All the women are 8s, intelligent, and mature. All the men are 3s, stupid, and childish.

The goofball couple are great.

The chick with the fierce eyebrows can do better than that child but if she can stand it I can.

The dude who Hamletted the pre-nup is an inert putz and I have no idea what she sees in him.

Jesus fuck, Molly, cover them up!

I was all set at the bar for Madison to ignite from jealousy -- they built it up so much -- then pfft.

Minneapolis looks like if you picked up Scottsdale and dropped in it Manitoba.[/SPOILER]
 
Wedding episode. Spoilers:

Monica and Joey: I was SHOCKED party girl shot down the goofball. That was my first truly surprising Love is Blind wedding choice. I sincerely thought they belonged together. He wasn't my choice but I am not her. My assumption is they were both on the show as entree into the Netflix Nick Leshay Fuckshow Universe, they each established themselves as "good guys," and they will live off that for years on different shows, occasionally criss-crossing to revive a "will they or won't they" tension as America's Sweethearts. Meh, it's an angle; good luck to them.

Sara and Ben: I was so proud of her for kicking Bible Boy to the curb. Ben was enraging not because he was infected with his parents' superstitions but because he was utterly inert and incapable of critical thought. "Your church is in favor of feeding children into farm equipment, what do you think?" "Well gosh I guess I just never really thought about it before. But I'm tolerant if we have different beliefs. Would you be willing to come to service every once in a while? Don't be intolerant." Yeah, no, fuck you.

Virginia and Devin: Did not care. Was not surprised.

Taylor and Daniel: Daniel was just a piece of shit in general and she dodged a bullet.

To sum up, the men were all losers and the women were all amazing. This was the Simpsons Season.

Oh, and in the lead-in Nick Leshay looks like his face has been lacquered.
