I liked Parks and Recreation overall, but April and Tom (and Jean Ralphio) are super unlikable. They're horrible caricatures and nobody in real life would be able to stand/work with them. It rubbed me the wrong way when the show is trying to say "Hey, they're actually good people" when the evidence shows that they're the absolute worst.

If you want to be real sad he talks about his wife's death and the aftermath in his latest comedy special.

It's so totally bogus. I killed his wife so I could marry my current one. What? Drunken bets are a hell of a thing.

HorseRenoir posted:Watching Star Trek Discovery to see how it compares to The Orville and man is this show such a tedious drag. I'm three episodes in and I think I count the moments any character has smiled or had any mood other than contempt/annoyance on one hand The first two episodes (the pilot) are hot trash and really should have been scrapped because it rapidly picks up after that.

As someone said before the show should have started with episode 3 as the pilot. The information in the first 2 episodes could have been told in flashbacks as the season progress or in a flashback episode. That said despite the missteps I thought Discovery was good (but not as good as something like The Expanse), and I will continue watching when it comes back. nate fisher fucked around with this message at 17:19 on Dec 11, 2017 |

Nothing has crushed me as a fan as much as listening to Patton talk about the loss of his wife. And then the league of shitheels started trashing him when he and Meredith got together. loving hell, Patton is the best and everyone loves him.

Oh wow. That's creepy even for the internet. I don't know if me being surprised by it is a good thing that I'm not too far gone into the void or just another step into the hole. I look forward to watching him be a magical unicorn imaginary friend for a drunk psychopath.

zoux posted:I heard his Netflix special was really good but I'm just not into the "exploring grief" genre these days. It is good. There's plenty of non-wife stuff - you could watch all the Trump stuff at the beginning and then turn off when he starts talking about his wife. I guess Oswalt getting remarried so early is sorta weird, but hell, none of us know poo poo about the situation, and the dude has earned massive amounts of goodwill.

When’s the wife stuff start? I’m actually the opposite; not interested in his (or anyone’s) Trump routine, definitely want to see him talk about his wife. ...which is its own kind of creepy, but hey, at least I’m not mad about him not wallowing in a pit of despair for 20 years.

It's fairly common for widowers to remarry pretty quickly after their wife's death. It's a recognised pattern, so if it's weird, it's a weird social phenomenon, not weird just for Patton.

I remember seeing a lot of people claiming Oswalt killed his wife long before he got remarried. I think it was happening within days of the announcement that she died. It's also the same people that talk about 9/11 inside jobs and crisis actors.

The Trump stuff is the loving worst part of the special. Either watch it for his wife stuff or don't watch it at all, because holy poo poo is his Trump material loving bad Like jesus christ is his Trump stuff the loving pits. ed: Just to be clear, his material on his wife is the focus of the special, and all of it is loving incredible, it just happens to be the final 45 minutes of a 60 minute special that opens with 15 minutes of the coldest of takes on how much Trump sucks. Watch the whole thing, but unless you want to watch a widower speak very frankly (and humanely) about his dead wife don't watch the special.

Oswalt's "pee pee doo doo he is a bad president" segments about Bush were consistently the weakest material on his old albums and I somehow you t he's going to do better about someone even more beyond parody and run into the ground. Though it might be better than that awful crusade against "fake nerds" he went on during the Obama years, I guess.

Patton's new wife also tragically lost her husband. Their shared grief helped them through the pain.

Or the part where they have to explain why their door now says "murderer!" to a police officer. That said, perhaps we just have different tastes in comedy; I didn't find season 1 very funny at all.

^^^^ you’re a lil behind. eps 7&8 aired last night. I’ve seen 9 but not 10 (they’re both already on iTunes but only 9 has been ripped). It was real good. I think my main issue with this season was them splitting the main cast for storylines that weren’t really especially good, deep, or interesting (especially Chantal + Mark Duplass).

This season of Will & Grace has been very good and barely missed a beat from the old ones (premiere notwithstanding), so a nomination earned imo.
