Maybe the first time I've ever seen an artistic depiction of the universal experience of looking up from game on little screen to watch show on large screen
At the risk of siding with Joe Rogan on anything, I did hear this from a comic, years ago. He said Robin would do your joke, walk offstage, apologize and pay you cash on the spot. Which in and of itself is a pretty good bit.
Joe Rogan accuses Robin Williams of stealing jokes from other comedians:
“I think (Robin) wanted to kill more than he wanted to be ethical at any cost. Part of that manic sort of style is this constant need to have a bit about anything that you’re talking about ever. Killing was
“Mad Max: Furiosa."
Anya and Chris are great, but what is even more blinding this time are these two.
These two new characters are too cool! The actors who played them are sure to be a breakout hit.
Furiosa's mother, Mary, is played by Charlee Fraser, who was also in "Anyone
Watching 12 Angry Men and imagining a Seinfeld where George reverses it, spitefully convincing 11 jurors to convict an innocent person because of a perceived slight
People get confused about Elaine being hot bc the show doesn't treat her like most sitcoms in the 90s treated hot girls. She's objectively beautiful but her character got the same types of stories that the guys got
grizzled detective: (lifting up sheet) female, 33. exotic dancer. the head is almost completely severed. tongue is bit through. no two ways about it, she went through hell before the end.
partner, a 9-year-old girl: (uncontrolled sobbing)
detective: ah christ... you knew her?
People want to think Shelley Duvall was showing pure actual fear in The Shining for the same reason they want to think every funny line in a comedy was improvised. We want to believe we're too smart to fall for good writing and acting.
Said it before but it's really weird to me that there are no other big cartoon camels. We've got loads of rabbits, cats, dogs... but the only famous camel was the cigarette camel. And they killed him. They fucking killed him.
It's the 31st anniversary of Twin Peaks Fire Walk With so I need everyone to know that the VHS appears not once, but twice in the background of Seinfeld
The reflexive, meta one-liners that used to come out of the mouths of bit-part bystanders now come from the protagonists. It was always more fun when the heroes weren't in on the joke.
Consensus seems to be that this is widely known, Robin owned up to it and was very cool about it and most comics didn't mind. Seems to be a minor sin if you're generally a cool person
She's not an airhead, isn't interested in settling down or being a killjoy. Never has a baby and is only interested in getting married as the setup to a punchline. Just wants to get laid, be petty and make money at a job she hates
one of my favorite tropes are when a male and female friend duo are just absolute dumbasses together.
not a ship, purely platonic, neither of them with even an ounce of romantic intent between each other...just completely stupid together. Two dummies. Silly billies, if you will
The Duolingo owl and the Hooters owl are brothers. One chose the path of knowledge. The other, the path of jumbo bazoingas, short shorts and chicken wings. An unbridgeable schism. A tale as old as time.

It does make it impossible to use the videos out of context and controls his image to an extent. You can't just re-upload his offhand riffs with his daughter to YouTube as serious commentary. This isn't director Martin Scorsese, this is goofy dad Marty. He's off the clock
Awesome scene in maestro where a car is playing R.E.M's end of the world as we know it and the audio gets slightly louder during the "Leo nard Bern stein " part. Brilliant move from director Bradley Cooper because the main character of the movie is named leonard bernstein
Dale Cooper pounds coffee and donuts all day every day so why did we never ONCE see him in the Twin Peaks Sheriff's bathroom stall fighting for his life
@SPLENDOR1999
I remember this from film school, every genre goes through a reflexive phase where the audience is so familiar with the tropes that the films have to wink at them a bit. It'll come back around
Telling myself this is what's happening instead of the very real possibility that the Vogue photog just didn't know how a Switch works and told her to look off camera
Not a Friends fan but it's funny that she and Michael Richards had the same frustration with big audience reactions interfering with their performances
Lisa Kudrow says she would often get angry at the audience during live filming of ‘Friends’:
“Because they were laughing for too long. It wasn’t that funny. It wasn’t an honest response and it irritated me.“
In a weird spiritual way, the fact that Billy Ray Cyrus was in Mulholland Drive makes the Larry David cameo on Hannah Montana a Seinpeaks moment. Much to think about
It doesn't get any more Seinpeaks than this: a copy of FWWM on VHS in the video store Elaine visits in the season 8 episode The Comeback. Thanks to Jonathan Strasheim for sending this screenshot.
I wouldn't say worst TV - the most grating moments of Twin Peaks S2 are still far more captivating than most network TV and Netflix Originals I've seen - but this dichotomy is essential to the love/hate attitude Peaks fans collectively have
The thing you have to understand is that Twin Peaks is the best show ever made and a solid 1/3 of it is some of the worst TV I’ve ever seen and yet both of these statements are somehow still true
@babytacomeat
Idk! I mean they only *occasionally* played up her sex appeal, and even when they did they made the point that it wasn't the norm. I think within the Seinfeld universe, Elaine as a character is supposed to be less attractive than JLD is in reality
what are posts that aren’t load-bearing anywhere but your personal lexicon. like the ones that weren’t really popular but are so enshrined in your mind that you just assume they got hundreds of thousands of likes
A key point missing in a lot of post debate analysis is that Trump’s claim about immigrants eating pets almost perfectly syncs up to the piano in the Peanuts theme song.
André 3000 has announced his long-awaited debut album, New Blue Sun, which will arrive on November 17th.
It's not a rap record, however; instead, it's an 87-minute collection of experimental music featuring André 3000 playing a variety of flutes.
"How'd the knockoff Wonka pop-up go?"
"Reviews are mixed. The customers took issue with my creative choices."
"What choices? You used AI."
