  1. I met him while he was doing a concert tour and I can confirm his hug was all the good you imagine. He is so extremely charismatic in person that I have no problem believing how Saul is such a great spy.
  2. Did anyone else think that the Stoopid girls was a parody of Broad City? Sad MO - two NYC girls who started on YouTube acting like total morons, but in RL very articulate, educated and very aware of how to market themselves out of the internet into wider popular culture.
  3. My DVR also taped "Desserts" but I am exerting self-control so I can save it and just reflect on those amazing quick breads. I want to make and eat Tamal's goat cheese bread right now and put some cheese on the side for "research." And I love stinky cheese so I would eat Dorrett's Silton bread as well. Who am I kidding? I would eat every one of those breads. Does anyone have any good links for unusual quick breads?
  4. I also got the impression that Shay took off but Marc knew it but he seemed happy about the new direction of his life. And even though they kept talking about how they were in a crappy town, any place that has a real used bookstore run by MC Gainey and Ron Perlman is better than anywhere in LA. Plus - endless podcast potentials! I do appreciate when shows don't try to linger on past their due date but I will miss the show (even though this season was nowhere near the quality of 1-3). I
  5. I usually enjoyable bottle episodes if they are well done and clever and I would probably watch an 8 hour movie on most of the character's origin stories but this episode was so insane and I am obsessing about it! First - THAT kiss!!! Why do I feel uncomfortable because I thought it was so hot? Miss Vanessa Ives and Frankenstein's monster are swapping spit!! That blew my mind Also, how is Vanessa act out a scene from Secretary a form of treatment?
  6. Thank you ClareWalks - I will third/fourth all of your comments. I just watched the Alex/Geoff episode and while Geoff looked great at the end and his fitness motives were for health (his fiancee was so supportive and sweet), Alex the trainer was such a dick. When the people around you tell you they like you better when you stop doing your "life's work" and act like a fitness nazi and start eating actual food … maybe that says something about the kind of trainer you really are. I don't think he got the point that he was supposed to feel empathy for Geoff. All he cared about was his own fitness. Other shows have had more supportive trainers but I wanted to punch this guy through the tv. Seriously - who takes a client who has never exercised on a difficult boot camp course on the hot sand at the beach without the intention of making him puke while he stands over him and yells he should remember this moment every time he wants to shove something down his pie hole. (I'm paraphrasing - but that was the spirit of that exercise.)
  7. If you missed last season, it is streaming on Netflix right now. Some real characters which makes it a lot of fun and it has the same vibe of a competitors who are supportive who take on everything with a great sense of humor. So much for the stereotype of the British "stiff upper lip." I'd love to bake in a tent with any of these people. Not only does this show make me hungry, it inspires me to bake. Cannot say the same for any other cooking program. I was hoping Kimberly would win - I thought the poppy seed filling might push her to the top.
  8. I am loving this season and I am not ashamed to admit I get a little verkempt as each baker gets sent off, especially now. I am hoping Kimberly wins. I want to eat everything she bakes and I think she is the most ambitious with flavors. I watch lots of cooking shows and cooking competitions but none make me so hungry or want to cook or bake so much.
  9. Loving this show and not surprised, having been a huge fan of "Bored to Death." I see pieces of Ted Danson's character from that show in Walter's hedonism and Jonathan Ames knows how to keep us interested in supporting characters. It is so much fun to see Patrick Stewart's range of comedy. Last week's automated bathroom hijinks was over the top delicious - it helps that where I work everything is automated and nothing works. His bon vivant is doing a great job in wiping away any trace of a certain Star Fleet commander. More Timm Sharp please. Also, I feel the urge to buy some Angel perfume.
  10. I disagree with the naysayers. This is a new favorite and it has done what I thought was the impossible: make me find Natasha Leggero funny. I am also completely in love with the adorable Jason Ritter with or without his vagina hat.
  11. Why oh why can't I stop watching this show? I feel like it is a punishment for a crime I committed 23 cycles of my life ago. Having said that - I'll take any drama over the increasingly ridiculous photo shoots (which they barely show anymore) and shameless Tyrafication. And - If Nyle or Mame do not hook up and become the first double win, there is no justice.
  12. I'm just in this for the story of how Tyra gets the nose ring in the final catwalk. And to watch Mikey freak out when they cut his hair.
  13. Anyone looking to come out to their 16 year old girlfriend, family, friends … "I didn't know until I put on the Zoot Suit." Also … "Electro-City is SUCH a cruel place to live!!!!"
  14. My only complaint with Ben is that his shorts are nowhere near short enough. Watching Ben and McKinley fall in love is a wonderful prelude to hot tool house sex.
  15. But this is exactly why CYE is so great - that version of Larry acts out the fantasy of standing up to all the bullshit that most if not all of us has. He has said in many interviews that he loves playing the CYE Larry because it is so freeing to be so confrontational all the time. Louie, on the other hand, never has shown himself either in his show (unless it is a fantasy sequence) or even in his stand-up, that he wants to take on the assholes of the world. He would rather figure out their motives and find the humor in that or in his discomfort but he's not on a mission to right every annoying thing. LOVED Michael Rappaport but he did not age well. He was such a scrawny kid in Do the Right Thing.
  16. Oh man! Now I am obsessed with both Ilana and Adele's identical hair. They seemed pretty much into each other's hair as well. I agree that Adele's no weed policy was the deal breaker. Anyone who can find a G-spot with such precision should not be tossed away lightly. http://www.salon.com/2015/03/12/alia_shawkat_on_her_hot_broad_city_doppelganger_romance_it_was_one_of_the_best_makeout_scenes_that_i%u2019ve_had/ Here's Alia Shahkat on her BC appearance. Apparently when the real Abbi and lIana met, Abbi mistook Alia S. for her as well.
  17. Maybe it is related to my complete love of all thing Martin Short, but this was the episode that finally got me to truly fall in love with this show. The Carol Kane landlady character finally clicked and Tiddass was beyond amazing. LOVED the audition, LOVED his nemisis Corolanius, and especially LOVED his head shots. And I think they evened out the Kimmie character to show a little more dark humor.
  18. I did love Abbi's escalation of fantasies as she got higher: "I am with Elijah Wood ion a restaurant and we ONLY order desert … I am at an extravagant flea market with Mark Ruffallo buying used milk crates to line our office which we plan to use as a nursery but we ONLY tell certain people that!"
  19. I am so in love with this show - I cannot wait for Wednesday night. I am having a lot of fun checking out the YouTube Broad City episodes. And my love affair with Ilana's curly hair continues. Love how Ilana and Lincoln agree to disagree about cornochons. They are BOTH right! Val - just %u2026 wow. LOVE.
  20. I feel like I learn something from every episode. For example, now I know the importance of artisan ass dildos. Last week it was smore weed shake awesome-ness. Not only do I covet Ilana's gorgeous curly hair, I want ALL her dance moves. That girl is flexible beyond words. Ilana and her mom's trip to Chinatown made me nostalgic for the days when you could just go to the Lower East Side or even a random sidewalk and openly buy any kind of fake you wanted. I still have a Louis Vuitton clutch and a Dooney & Burke briefcase bought on Delancy street - no blindfold or trip down the sewer required.
  21. Am I ignorant for not knowing that each of these cards have an elaborate backstory? I do realize that different royals are in different positions in different suits but I wasn't aware that each could have such relevance reaching back to the David vs. Goliath story. Maybe these contestants should have been more concerned with studying up on the definition of WHIMSY yet again. (Didn't Laura win a whimsy challenge or at least come in the top three? She should know better.) And personally, I think they should have taken the Queen of Hearts out of play altogether.
  22. I also find this show to be the much needed antidote to GIRLS. It's the same premise basically except it is funny, clever, ridiculously absurdist and you don't have to be in TV version Brooklyn to know or be an "Abbi" and "Illana." Having said that, where the hell can I get the recipe for that amazing samores flavored weed-shake? That looked very well-thought out and dee-lious.
  23. Loved the Archer show with Chris Parnell, Aisha Tyler and Judy Greer but would swap any of those for H. Jon Benjamin. Or do a Bob's Burgers with Benjamin, Kristen Schaal and Eugene Mirman.
