not a fan of norah's interviewing, "wHaT dO yOu ThInK oF tHiS LoCaL aMeRiCaN tHiNg?" and her vigorous for-the-cameras head nodding as he answers, once she gets more into the policies and vatican stuff he has sway over it got more interesting/substantive but such a nothing interview otherwise
Salma Hayek's line readings were i m p e c c a b l e
loved Dawn, what a character w/o sucking all the oxygen out of the room
bring her back for battle of the duds!
the physical comedy of that lady blocking the door and her husband simply pushing aside the other French door to get past her
usually annoyed by 2 celebrities gushing over each other in shows but playful interplay between Jon & Illana was great
bring Finley back for battle of the duds!
a Louis Vuitton colostomy bag
the native dude and the burrito is the single funniest thing this show has done
Freak-a-leek :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy:
the fox teeth reveal is the greatest sight gag on this show
casting John Cho as the go-to actor that played all the Asian roles is chef's kiss casting
"Are you a chameleon on a stop sign 'cause you just got red"
"I have a Home Alone knob for xyz" is a new obscure phrase I will be dropping into casual conversations to my friends' confusion and my indifference to their confusion
wickie being set off by being introduced third :rofl:
defeating the mind-meld unit of a creature was a bit deus ex machina for me but still looking forward to (hopefully?) season 2
fun interplay b/t desi & mike, the sum is much better than the individual parts (as hosts), not the BEST chemistry—even if they've been long-time coworkers—but enough there to work
i've grown increasingly annoyed by scott pelley's questioning, i WoNdEr ....
4 too many Robert Downey Jrs at the end, felt way too gimmicky
Elle is the worst/most stereotypically awful/annoying representation of millennial/gen z/zillennial
the children of PTSD-soldiers story was so sad
"It's accountability within the system that we have established..." is one hell of a PR-sanitized answer
a taste test! love these head-to-heads having props and tricky questions like a taste test!!
the european and japanese geopolitics are a bit dense that i have to work to keep up with it all but dang this is really shaping up nicely, big GoT s1 feels
Season 2: Chekhov's inter-dimensional void
most expensive lookin' first episode i've seen in some time
robert downey jr is distracting in the worst way possible
Bruno cracking up in the background while Conan calls Santiago a psychopath in 50 different ways
Curb is so good at casting 1-ep guest star unknowns, disney princess, country club waitress in the last episode, Georgia hotel bellboy in ep2
very difficult topic to cover but cecilia vega's done a good job imo of covering the border/migration issue throughout her stories. definitely a big issue of how to absorb the influx of migrants and fund all the costs associated w/ it even if they don't end up getting residency but some of the tactics used to deter seem simultaneously heavy-handed and ultimately ineffective
"You can't keep calling in bomb threats to get out of things, this isn't school anymore!"
"Whats the use of doing the right thing if you don't get rewarded for it?! It's bullshit!"
"You got cucked so hard you turned into a cat. It's a tale as old as time"
i know it's the point of her character but tracey ullmans character is SOOOO annoying
