I think the greatest tragedy of modern life is that the best encapsulation of the vulnerability of a utopian society to a single bad actor is the Ricky Gervais movie "The Invention of Lying."

got banned for life from the TaleSpin forums for suggesting that Baloo in TaleSpin is NOT the same bear as Baloo in The Jungle Book. People were screaming at me to shut the fuck up even though I provided EVIDENCE

I think Slate forgot to put a colon in between these two headlines.

If life, as Ralph Waldo Emerson contends, "consists in what a man thinks of all day," then I guess this is my life.

It couldn't be that easy

The thing about the WHCD is, do you have any idea how nice it is not to go to something? And to have the excuse that you're doing it on principle? My god, take the win.

imagine Tracy Morgan saying "it's not what it looks like! Dr. Epstein is my optometrist." If this is your kind of joke, you gotta watch Reggie Dinkins

The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins is nakedly an excuse for the 30 Rock team to make jokes about whatever they want to at lightning speed, and I mean that as an unreserved recommendation. Second season, please!

You don't really want this. So much of TV is changed and discovered in the process. No master plan survives 13 eps of production. Your actors' abilities and chemistry opens up story paths you never imagined. Other ideas sink like a lead balloon. Master plans are overrated.

RIP Sam Kieth

Sweet, dreams!

Yes, Megan Thee Stallion is on The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins tonight. But also, Craig Robinson is on The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins tonight. And, in addition, Heidi Gardner is on The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins tonight.

"Flash enters the speed force" wins!

There’s nothing more obnoxious than when people celebrate being an asshole or “just saying what everyone’s thinking” Yeah, dude, most people have edgy thoughts, and learn to keep them inside. It’s called control. What you’re doing is like being really proud of constantly shitting yourself.

My friend (& doppelgänger) Daniel Radcliffe and the great Bobby Moynihan are currently starring in the very funny NBC series “The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins” - which I would enjoy even if it DIDN’T include gratuitous Weird Al references.

If I ran a porn store, I'd put posters in all the booths that said "You don't have to be crazy to jerk here... but it helps!" 'Cause you've gotta laugh, y'know.

I don't know why they need to make short AI films about the American Revolution when the perfect one was created 18 years ago www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbRo...

It was in the trailer, so I can post one of my favorite stupid BG jokes from the show. Watch the first episode this Sunday after the Rams/Bears game on NBC!

New York millionaires: threatening to flee the city since 2009

If you're looking for some food banks to donate to, we vetted a ton all over the country back in 2020, in conjunction with our marble league sponsorship, a sentence that I swear made sense in context. Anyway -- there are links to 17 of them in this thread. (And apologies for linking to... y'know.)

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

One of the joys of making television is having to do writers rooms on location in places like an abandoned Sunday school classroom in Yonkers.

This is great. Mike is doing something no one else is doing in comedy and it's pretty wonderful.

I had a fun time pulling an all-nighter with Jesse Eisenberg and Meredith Scardino while they magically speed-wrote a musical: www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
