"CCH Pounder on the toilet"
Always confused him with Anthony Kiedis. N/T.
Currently available on Pluto
"TLC would like to invite you to MILF Manor, which a legally distinct concept from MILF Island"
Appreciate the critical perspective.
What's the point of this remake?
Could have used a better title.
"That '90s Show" spinoff in the works.
Trailer looks pretty melodramatic

IDK. Teenage boys are quickly smitten & horny, old men aren't picky.
<blockquote>Very disappointing. Terrible Christmas message; actually the only thing Christmas about this movie was the fact they sold Christmas trees - they barely sold Christmas trees.</blockquote>
One could say something similar about A Charlie Brown Christmas, no?
Recently read the Shales/Miller book on SNL & it seems like the show breaks down neatly into 5 year "eras", with each one having a distinct vibe. Like you say, 70s was classic. Early 90s was something of a renaissance. Late 00s were defined by the digital shorts.
Book only goes up to about 2010 & it left me wondering how to define the past decade. Show has its ups/downs & there's no reason it can't go back up. But past few years have been rough.
Reviewers said "Anyone But You" was such a breath of fresh air because Hollywood isn't making many mid-budget movies. Big budget Disney movies & low budget straight-to-streaming are sucking up all the oxygen. So there aren't that many quality rom-coms being made. Same applies to slapstick stuff. I'll have to check it out.
He was written as a douche to make Pauley Shore seem likable. It's not that deep.
True. Though I will say that Hyde downplaying his race was accurate to his era just as Gwen flaunting it was to her era.
...as absentee fathers.
They're absolutely there to look pretty. Like it or not, it's how they monetize these events.
I thought the show was set in an exurb or college town. Not really "rural", as some in other threads have suggested.
The cast should be slightly more racially mixed than the original version. 70s had 2 minorities: Fez & Hyde. Hyde had a black dad despite looking white. New show has 3 in Ozzie, Gwen & Nikki. Net gain of 1. That seems about right.
Double standard? The women switched to biker shorts, not board shorts like the men.
Physical beauty is part of the draw for spectator sports. We accentuate it differently because we are different. Men wear tank tops because they show off the guns. Women wear form-fitting stuff because it accentuates the hips.
Crying about "misogyny" is an easy way to get attention from NBC.
