Nardole: please tell me that's hair gel.
the Doctor: hehe, that Cleopatra...

* the Doctor: RIVER!
River Song: oh. where's David Tennant? is David Tennant busy? can David Tennant come back?

* King Hydroflax: oh dahlin, i love when we make love.
River: yes dahlin, you give good head.
Hydroflax: you, surgeon, fix me now!
the Doctor: okay but i'm a proctologist.
the crowds on the screens cheer.
the Doctor: oh come on, those aren't real people, this is the youtube era, man!

* River: an archaeologist is just a thief who's patient.
the Doctor: i'm a proctologist. i'm the opposite. when you gotta go, you gotta go.
River: this stolen diamond is but a pittance as recompense for all of the blood on your, um, head.
Hydroflax: but dahlin, that diamond was to be your engagement ring.
River: how come you never got me a fat shiny rock like this?
the Doctor: diamonds bring back bad bad memories for me.

* River: hold this head in a bag. it's just like the time we went bowling together.
the Doctor: we never went bowling together.
River: you never take me anywhere! hello, Ramone, give mama some sugar.
River and Ramone kiss.
the Doctor: excuse me, buddy, i'm her husband.
Ramone: i know.
River and Ramone kiss again.
the Doctor: so that thing where you mush faces together, that's a thing? oh look, honey, you dropped your wallet. hey all of the other Doctor pics are here, even the War Doctor, but not me?!
River: this was during the time before you were announced. Steven Moffat was considering playing Twelve.
the Doctor: i've had enough of all you thirsty people. i'm going back to meditating with Bors. at least i know Bors isn't thirsty. we have water over there.

* Scratch: do you have the item?
River: do you have the money? and stop whispering, it reminds me of a library.
Scratch cuts open his head.
Scratch: OH SHIT! i cut vertical when i should have cut horizontal! help me get my fucking face back together!
River: you don't have to shout. this is a restaurant, not a Taylor Swift concert.
Scratch: lady don't screw me.
River: but this is a screwball comedy.
Hydroflax enters.
Scratch: ALL HAIL BAYMAX

* the Doctor: i realize that joke about the poor economy was in bad taste but it was better than the one i considered about Trump being America's first dictator.

* the Doctor: kid, you should build a restaurant here.
Alphonse: no money.
the Doctor: take this diamond.
Alphonse: so we're married now?

* at the restaurant a few years later...
River: how do i look?
the Doctor: your breasts are quite handsome.
River: lucky for you i'm a Smashing Pumpkins fan. is that a gift for me? omg i'm fangirling over here. what is it?! it's...it's...your sonic sunglasses? you damn regifter!
the Doctor: PLEASE let me unload them on you, i've been trying to get rid of those things for the longest but no one in the entire universe wants them.

* the Doctor and River stare eternally at the stardrenched Singing Towers of Darillium. the Towers sing their trademark song with their beautiful female operatic voices.
River: let us spend the remaining time we have together together forever.
the Doctor: yes, dear. i love you, sweetie. no one knows exactly what the song means but it has something to do with perseverance.
the first song ends and the second song starts. the second song is "Shake It Off" by Taylor Swift.
River: so, uh, see you around?
the Doctor: yep, bye bye.

* Mike: the internet has made the nerds the jocks of this brave new crappy society. time for me to go to school and hit the books with one of my patented devastating uppercuts.

* Yung: apparently the guy did ask for our help. this slip of paper proves it. poor pigeon that carried it was too fat to fit through the door.
Mike: not our fault. the words on the paper are faded. this guy used invisible ink.

* the team go to the froyo shop and the dry cleaners.
Marquess: we would make excellent stalkers.

Doctor Who "Hell Bent" Episode Discussion

learned:

* the Doctor: i don't remember what she looked like but she looked just like you. except she had an ass.

* the Doctor: why do you have a British accent and work at an American diner?

* Dalek: exterminate me! take me off life support!
Weeping Angel: look at me! don't turn away! nobody looks at me anymore! i'm a person, too!
Cyberman: it's me, Danny!

* Ohila: why is the Doctor doing this? why did he do that whole insane billions-of-years-recurring-nightmare thing? what did he tell you?

Tim and Eric's Bedtime Stories "Tornado" Episode Discussion

learned:

* plumber: son, stop spritzing glue.
Matt: i'm a growing boy. i need to. there's nothing shameful about it.
dad: son, can't you do something else?
Matt: well i could try rubber cement but man that's gonna be painful.

* i just found out Zagen means "saw"..........very interesting.......and thanks, Google Translate!

* mom: honey, everyone at the hospital is smothered in your seed.
Matt (red cheeks): moooooooom, you're embarrassing me.

* Zagen: this is serious, Matt.
Matt: like The Wire serious or Fringe serious?

* Matt: NO ANESTHESIA?!!!
Father Krang: how do you think Jesus felt with the nails and whatnot?
Matt: i'm Jewish!
Father Krang: don't worry, you'll be reprogrammed in no time.
Matt: i'm not gay!
Father Krang: this is an allegory.
Howie Mandel, in the ER reprising his role as a doctor, screams.

* Zagen: Matt, inside this bag are your balls.
Matt eats his balls.
Matt: i just discovered internet memes.

* Matt: why are you fondling my balls, Father?
Father Krang: an old Catholic tradition. if i were Jesus, i would have sacktapped that traitor Judas for even thinking about betraying me and everything would have been different.
Matt: jesus, don't let that white collar go to your head. literally.

* Matt: so, um, wanna go swimming?
Lucy: Matt, that's your septic tank full of your cum.
Matt: oh, sorry, i get nervous around pixie-cut babes. speaking of my cum, wanna fuck?
Lucy: now that's a new line. i thought you'd never ask. i'm pregnant!
Matt: abortion?
Lucy: totally.
Matt: you're kidding, right? we're keeping the baby? it will be our pride and joy?
Lucy: totally.
Matt: the tone on this show gets confusing.

* Lucy: you're gonna take my baby as your own?! you indirectly fucked me?! madness!
Father Krang: look, i'm only doing what the pink blob in my stomach's telling me to do.

* Matt runs and locks the door behind him.
Lucy (crying and screaming in fear): WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!!
Matt: i gonna cut off these Catholic-priest balls from my body. i'm thinking about sauteing them in a nice champagne reduction till they're nice and crispy but still soft. parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. dinner will be a little late tonight, honey, gotta get that reduction just right.

* this show spoofs horror anthologies. but horror is merely the other side of comedy. one elicits a scream, the other a laugh when your mind is not prepared to see or hear what comes next. both jangle the nerves. so this show ends up being not so much funny as menacingly strange with a few hits to the funny bone thrown in, exactly what an actual modern Twilight Zone episode would be like.

Veil: dig your own grave, Doctor. *evil laugh*

the Doctor: i was scared of getting bored.

* the Doctor: Clara, i need your help inside my TARDIS brain........please don't turn around...............okay, i admit it, you do have a nice ass.

the Doctor: no, you weren't there when the cast and crew did the readthrough, remember? you were off auditioning for your next role.

* the Doctor: you gave out my number?
Clara: no, it happens to be the exact same number as the local pizzeria.
th Doctor: oh i so love those Ultimate Hershey's Chocolate Chip Cookie cookie pizzas from Pizza Hut.

* the Doctor: who are you?
Rigsy: i could say the same to you.
the Doctor: i like you. you're gonna die.
Rigsy: this isn't a gang tat, it's a magical tattoo, i'm a responsible husband and father.
the Doctor: oh your little human is adorable, i could just eat that baby!
Rigsy: you're kidding, right? Clara said you were a friendly alien.
the Doctor: hmm? oh yeah, yes, right.

* Clara sticks her head out the TARDIS. her hair blows in the London sky.
Rigsy: i never knew Clara was such a daredevil. she's more rebellious than i was as a youth.
the Doctor: nah, i told her she couldn't use the TARDIS phone to order pizza anymore but that didn't stop her.
Clara: pepperoni!

* Clara: trap streets.
the Doctor: trap streets.
Rigsy: trap streets.
Clara: but which one?
the Doctor: Ashildr Street, nobody remembers that one.

* Rigsy: i'm guilty? is this cos i'm black?
the Doctor: it's your fault!
Ashildr: my fault? is this cos my neck tats are black? that's racist.

Anahson: i'm here legally you know, i have my papers.
the Doctor: are they psychic?

* Clara: you can fix this, right?
the Doctor: no, your recklessness finally caught up with you. it's rare for a Companion to outright die but in the end you weren't as invincible as me. cos you can't regenerate.
Clara: oh well, i can join Danny now.
the Doctor: please give this to Danny when you see him again. it's a maths book.

* Rigsy beautifully tags the TARDIS with a Clara tribute.

* don't hate me, but this is the best show on tv.

* this show is all about the awkward pauses.........................and the strange improv replies to jokes, y'know? like most sitcoms have the joke delivered, the canned laughter, and that's it, the plot moves on, but here, there's this weird pause after the joke followed by an offhand reply, like a "gimme a break", "oh brother", "god help me", "you're stupid", "in your dreams", "oooooooookay", "please" or an uncomfortable laugh from Pigeon.

* what happened to the guy who gave the bad review on yelp?

* Pigeon: does anyone in this family care that i'm in an oven?
Yung: Pigeon, this is the only way i'll ever eat you, if you're roast pigeon.
Pigeon: i may die, but what a way to go!

* Marquess: oh Mike you're crying. are you watching On Golden Pond?
Mike (wiping away tears on his blue tracksuit): nope, the Buster Douglas fight.

* Pigeon: wait, you mean to tell me someone fucked you four times?
Mike: sure, she's a soccer mom, she needs to have enough for a soccer team.

* soccer mom: i am so stereotypically harried, i gotta get the boy to ballet, the chubby girl to fat camp, and my ass to night school. and my husband thinks i'm a liar. does anyone hear that noise?
Pigeon: no, but it does sound like you need a new husband. i could get rid of him for you and we could make some noises.
soccer mom: no thank you.
Mike: me?
soccer mom: um, no thank you. how about you?
soccer mom looks lovingly at Yung.
Yung: me?! oh, no, sorry, i'm going to college soon.

* Pigeon: hey boy, have you jacked off yet? it's not normal you know.
boy (to psychiatrist): a talking pigeon told me masturbation was unnatural.
psychiatrist: get this kid a ward bed, he's crazy.
Pigeon: see?

* Mike tears apart soccer mom's car.
soccer mom: a gnome, that's what made the gnoise. i'm not crazy! hello tiny bearded magic man, how are you? wanna be my new husband?
gnome: sorry, toots, you're cute and all, you look like Jane Pauley, but i'm gonna die in your dog's mouth soon.
soccer mom: thank you. who's gonna pay to repair my car you tore up?
Mike: oh sorry, just deduct it from our bill. and please leave a glowing review on yelp, that's all that really matters. i've always wanted to destroy a car like my hero Michael Jackson. we Mikes have to stick together.
soccer mom: RIP MJ, king of pop, greatest songs ever.
Mike: he did music?

Doctor Who "The Zygon Invasion" Episode Discussion

learned:

* once, there were three Doctors, especially Tennant, we keep seeing flashbacks of Tennant, probably subliminal, showcasing the nostalgic better days, when the show really mattered. *sigh* hey, so what's Tennant doing now, just out of curiosity?
Tennant: i'm right here in space. you know in space they can't hear you sigh.
narrator: you are?! joy! gumdrops! can you come back?!
Tennant: i'm busy helping out four turtles at the moment.
narrator: oh come on!

* Colonel Walsh: just because you're paranoid don't mean there're not after you.
the Doctor: Cobain forever.
Colonel Walsh: sure but also i'm a Zygon. i'll reveal myself in Part 2.
the Doctor: what?
Colonel Walsh: nothing.

* Zygons: TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES!!!
Kate: but i DID get my pets spayed or neutered.

* the Doctor: bombing is never the answer, it'll radicalize the moderates. go watch Off the Air "Conflict".
Kate: well then what do you suggest?! look at my face, it's cuter now that it's angry.
the Doctor: easy, the secret weapon against ISIS is my sonic sunglasses.
Moffat: sorry, sorry, that wasn't supposed to be in the final script, i swear, honest mistake.
female soldier: i can't bomb the enemy, they look like my family.
the Doctor: is it weird that when i look at them all i see is David Tennant? just David Tennants everywhere...

* the Doctor: i want to make sure i've got this correct: there are two Osgoods?

mom: Patches.
Hitchley shoots mom-alien.
Colonel Walsh: why did you finally decide to do it?
Hitchley: i always hated Patches. mom loved Patches more than me.

* the Doctor: let's be honest, you're human.
Osgood: i reject that concept, it's not either/or, i'm both human and Zygon, i'm a hybrid.
the Doctor: please don't use that dirty word around me.
Osgood: great, more bisexual nullification on tv.

* Clara: the middle-aged always think the world is coming to an end.

Doctor Who "The Woman Who Lived" Episode Discussion

learned:

* Ashildr: i am robbing you!
the Doctor: of my hamburgers?

* Ashildr: i am Me.
the Doctor: B?
Ashildr: no, Me.
the Doctor: oh sorry, i'm remembering in the wrong direction, premonition of your character before your epiphany.

* the Doctor: i read your diary.
Ashildr: how dare you! did you find anything life-altering?
the Doctor: no, seeing as you're immortal. you lost your children, that's something a mother never forgets no matter how old.
Ashildr: damn you! why didn't you stop the Plague?!!
the Doctor: i was in a rock band then.
Ashildr: immortality is a curse.
the Doctor: it's cool for like the first thousand years. then your face starts to get all big.
Ashildr: why couldn't you make my memory immortal, too?
the Doctor: believe me, you do not want to remember your awkward teenage years.
Ashildr: take me with you, Doctor!
the Doctor: it wouldn't work out. God needed a break from Jesus living in His basement, He went out for a pack of censer smokes and never came back. it's in the Bible.

* the Doctor: if you kill this man's shortlife, you'll make an enemy out of me.
Ashildr: exactly.

* Leandro: this is where the wealthy and the powerful rule. it is her world...a world apart from mine. her name is...Me. from the moment i saw her she captured my heart with her beauty, her warmth, and her courage. i knew then as i know now that she would change my life...forever.
the Doctor: hey Vincent, meet me in the woods, i got some marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers that need toasting. campfires don't exist yet, right? wait, do marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers exist yet?

* Sam Swift: that kiss was hot.
Ashildr: do you know how old i am?
Sam Swift: i'm into gilfs.

* the Doctor: oh Clara, hi! you're here! i didn't miss you at all i mean how are you?
Clara: what have you been up to all episode? i've been doing some madcap school stuff myself.
the Doctor: oh just finding your replacement.
Clara: don't worry, Doctor, i'll never leave your side for a couple more episodes. and then i'll turn to dust.
the Doctor: i know i know, let's all be honest here, there will never be another Sarah Jane...

the Doctor: I am God.
villagers: but what happens when you die?

false Odin: that's the proper Viking way! I was just about to surrender in writing.

* the Doctor: I can speak baby.
Clara: what is it saying?

Clara: um, no, remember last year when we both got drunk, ditched the Christmas party, and huddled together for warmth on the surface of the sun?...

* the Doctor: I've got it! electric eels!
the Doctor tries the eels but they don't work.
the Doctor: where's all the power?
Arya: they're PG&E eels.

* the Doctor: the technology under the helmet fried her poor brain.
Clara: same thing happened when Nintendo rolled out the Virtual Boy.

* the Doctor: I have randomly decided to make you immortal.
Arya: thanks for healing me and everything but I think you went a little overboard.
the Doctor: I always want to have you by my side.
Arya: that's gross, old man.

Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell "Heaven" Episode Discussion

learned:

* i smell spinoff...

* who does God's clerical work, the DMV? (which stands for Demonic Motive Visored)

* this proves once and for all that golf is Zen.

* no, pottery gets the women, just ask the movie Ghost, which has the perfect title for this discussion.

* okay so obviously the people in Heaven are mindnumbingly boring, Hell obviously has the more interesting people, so....Hell is better, the more desirable place to end up? so then what's the point of it all? i'm so confused. what doth life?

* everyone's prayers could have been answered if not for one major design flaw...

* in Heaven there are still dicks in the workplace...and asses. God's Butt btw...look at the Pillars of Creation...i'm not saying they look like fart gas, i'm just sayin'.

* in Heaven you can be edgy but you can't take it too far and fall off the edge. Earth may be round but Heaven is flat.

the Doctor (reading his cards): i'm sorry for the loss of your pet.............listen, i get it, i thought she was hot, too.

* Bennett: i just want to tell O'Donnell i love her...
the Doctor: you can't! the time paradox thing, remember? this has nothing to do with me being jealous.

* Ghost O'Donnell takes Clara's iphone.
Clara: I'VE BEEN SAMSUNGED!!!

* the Fisher King: see, this is not Alien at all, i can talk.

* the Fisher King: others will do the dirty work for me...
the Doctor: sorry if i'm not intimidated but you really just look like a really tall dude in a rubber suit. Neil, is that you? missed you at the pub last night.
the Fisher King: yeah i was preparing for a role on some show, decided to shoot some hoops alone to clear my mind.

* Bennett: hey Cass, Lunn, fuck already. say i love you to her.

Cass: no.
Bennett: oh. what am i gonna do without O'Donnell?
Clara: you have to move on, always move on, there're plenty more fish under the lake, sometimes they're just under your nose...
Bennett: so do you want to hook up here or in the Faraday cage?
Clara: no, i didn't mean me, i'm leaving the show soon.

* the Doctor: the question is, who came up with the bootstrap paradox in the first place? google it. but who came up with google in the first place? the answer to all your questions causally loops back to one man and one man alone: Moffat.

Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell "Krampus Nacht" Episode Discussion

learned:

* WRONG HOLIDAY!

* Satan: it's become too commercialized, Jesus doesn't get the credit anymore. Santa and all the presents in bright shiny bows commercialized it. don't read too much into the fact that Santa sounds like Satan and he wears red all the time.

* Krampus: my son is a disgrace, he's an embarrassment to the Krampus name, he won't even touch the rim of my drowning tub. he's all goody-goody, he wants to warn the villagers beforehand. what i do is art.
son: art is so stuffy, so corporate, so soul-deadening. didn't you ever want to follow a dream when you were a youth, papa? against all odds, i want to express myself. i WILL be a coal miner whether you or mom or the rest of the family wants me to or not!

* mother spanks her child.
child: it hurts, mommy! why do you do this to me?!
mother: hey it's either me or the Krampus with a shoe, your choice.

* Claude: here, use my gun to kill the Krampus.
Gary: you've had a gun this whole time?! why haven't you used it yet?!
Claude: Gary you have no idea how hard i've had to work to suppress my desire to shoot you.

* Gary: it's so weird seeing the Krampus like this. he's not the legend he once was.
Claude: yeah, he's Montana as a Chief, Jordan as a Wizard, Nadal...
Gary: don't you dare lump Nadal in with those hasbeens! all he needs is a new coach and some new knees.

* Gary's little nephew: please, mommy, get me that toy gun. i promise i won't become a psychopath.
kid gets the toy gun and shoots it at mommy and daddy.
Gary's little nephew: i lied.

Clara: remember, Doctor, use your politeness cards.
the Doctor: hey Clara, why don't you adopt this sign language for the rest of the episode? it'd be rude not to. when in Rome and everything.
the Doctor: did you see that?!
Clara: what? i mean *sign for what*
the Doctor: the company man flicked me off! that doesn't need a sound, that sign is universal.

* the Doctor: Clara, i think we've met the babe who can replace you when you go: O'Donnell.
Clara: you just like her cos she thinks you can do no wrong.
the Doctor: sure, she feeds my immense ego...and that body of hers doesn't hurt, either. but most of all, she's happy to be here. Clara? are you listening? get off the phone!
Clara: sorry, i'm trying to get on the next season of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here.

* Clara: what does the inscription say?
the Doctor: it's an earworm, like "You Oughta Know." it all makes sense now, the ghosts, i know what they were trying to say, it wasn't a warning about going down to the theatre, it's about going down on you in a theatre.

* Cass: the ghosts only come out at night.
the ghosts turn off the lights during the day.
Cass: they're ghosts, right? they can't pick up corporeal items.
the ghosts pick up a harpoon and shoot it at the Doctor.
Cass: what if they're friendly? like Casper?
the Doctor (straps on proton pack): okay, i've had enough of this fuckery.

* the Doctor: you're a scientist. this could be a new species. where's your sense of adventure?
the scientist: exactly, i'm a scientist, there is no afterlife, i'm not gonna die for nothing, get me the fuck off this underwater hellhole!

Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell "Spunk" Episode Discussion

* Satan can't hold his liquor? that explains the Catholic Mass so much. all that altar wine in the backroom is the Last Stand.

* i feel so sorry for that spider. on the other hand, it was a fun workplace for him.

* even Spielberg listens to his actors. except that one time when Tom Hanks wanted his character in Saving Private Ryan to be Forrest Gump running through history.

* you'd think the tripping-out place would be arctic in a snowstorm, not a hot beach. you can still have the babes, but they'd be snowboarding hot-cocoa-sippin' snow bunnies. okay, cold cocoa.

Vicious "Wedding" Episode Discussion

learned:

* Violet: Ash, i have a confession to make. that previous confession when i said we didn't do anything together in that bed was a lie, we did in fact fuck.

Missy: they're decomposed Daleks.
Clara: no wonder they're angry all the time. it's a gift to be able to die.
Missy: i'm glad you think that way (sharpening stick).

* Davros: you have the power to commit genocide, how does it feel to be a god?
the Doctor: come on, man, that's not what God is about, at least that shouldn't be the first thing you think of when you think of God. can we take a break from all the negativity? at least for this week that the Pope is here?

*  the Doctor spins around in an half-cut-open Dalek casing.
the Doctor: WHEEEEEEEEEEEE
Missy: that's my line. why are you having so much fun with this? it's the Daleks' worst nightmare, right?
the Doctor: no, i never got to ride the bumper cars when i was a kid. i don't remember being a child actually, it's like i started as an old man.

* Clara: what's the Dalek word for love?
Missy: exterminate.
Clara: how about hate?
Missy: exterminate.
Clara: how about exterminate?
Missy: Moffat's critics. Steven has had it and programmed that into the Daleks himself when Davros was sleeping.

* Davros: let me see with my own eyes.
the Doctor: i'm crying. i'll help you. you can now cry through your eyes.
Davros: i tricked you! i hate the sun, my skin burns easily as you can imagine. now all of my Dalek children are half-Dalek, half-Time Lord, they're Dalek Deities!
Missy: excuse me, i'm a Time Lady.
Davros: no one asked you, Bitch's Familiar............sorry, that last comment was out of line, i had a rough childhood.
the Doctor: AH-HA! i tricked YOU, Davros! Doctors don't cry, we'd never be able to do our job, we have to make calculating, emotionless decisions that affect whole worlds. also, i hate the sun, too. i got rid of a star once with one wave of my sonic screwdriver/shades.
Missy: that's cold....literally.
Davros: i like you. wanna fuck?
Missy: sorry, dear, i'm taken apparently.
Sarff: Master, i...
Missy: yes?
Sarff: not you! my master, Davros.
Davros: what do you want you Harry Potter reject?

the Doctor: i've thought eons about this and my answer now is yes, i should have killed you as a boy.
Davros: no man, not me, Hitler, Hitler, this is a hypothetical! what is wrong with you, man?!

* Davros: i needed to created the Daleks to counter your sappy goodness.
the Doctor: you have destroyed so much life in the universe, and for what?
Davros: cos without the Daleks there is no show. i mean you think people will tune in each week to watch an old fart tinkering in his state-of-the-art lab on Gallifrey for an hour?

Imogen sends Damon flying into the next county with her teleportation.
Imogen: that's the lesson to all you bullied kids out there: ignoring bullies doesn't work. standing up to bullies just empowers them. the only way to get rid of bullies is to get yourself a superpower.

Maya: i'm all for masculinity in 2015 and gender fluidity, but this is just weird.

* Frankie's dad: you don't understand, Daughter, the Power was intoxicating, it corrupted me, turning me into your standard politician, it infected my senses, my moral compass went out the window, it controlled me like a parasite, blinding me to my family, to my humanity.
Frankie: okay, let's give this one more try. hey, what's that you're hiding behind your back?
Frankie's dad: it's the Power Sword. I HAVE THE POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

* Zig (crying): sorry but i really appreciate all you and your mother have done for me, Maya. you guys house me, feed me, give me sponge baths, even pick out my clothes for the day and leave them out on the bunk bed.
Maya: that's what just friends are for. hey, where are you going?

Degrassi "Watch Out Now" Episode Discussion

learned:

* NO NO NO NO MORE BREAK MORE BREAK

* Degrassi, i just don't know. do i ultimately love the show or do i resent it? is it as good as it used to be? is that a fair question? nothing is ever as good as it used to be. should it have ended after the first generation? they said the same thing about Skins and look what happened. Skins should have ended after the second generation. is it unfair to constantly compare this show to Skins? yes it is, that sort of Skins quality comes around once in a generation, or the second one. and besides, Degrassi came first, back in the '80s when the show was still good.

* Degrassi, i just dunno. would it have been better just to end it cleanly, really end it, i mean like REALLY end it once and for all with none of this Netflix eternal perpetuity nonsense? i won't be following the show over to Netflix so this is my end...but it feels weird cos it's not really the end. i'll always have the niggling feeling in the pit of my stomach that i'm missing some mindblowing storyline going on over at Next Class that i'll never know about. it's Arrested Development all over again.

* Imogen: holy shit, where are we? when are we? remember when the school almost burned down? that was wild..........fire.
Becky: i'm still on this show? oh, okay. am i still the Christian? can i be the scientist? i can't get that image of the planet Pluto's broken heart outta my head.

* Becky: i love rules. without rules, you can't break the rules and rules are meant to be broken. it's sexier when it's a religious person like me breaking the rules. y'know, Aerosmith, Alicia Silverstone, Catholic schoolgirl uniform...
Jack: my character went nowhere, huh? anyway, um, here's some advice if you want to get Drew to do something for you: remember: Drew is a straight male. so, yeah, approach him buck naked and watch all your dreams come true.

* Drew: i've fucked every girl at this school and i never learn. every time a hot babe crosses my path i get this weird sensation in my body. what's wrong with me?
Drake: you're a dude, dude.

* new principal: they were gonna name me Tool. anyway, no PDA, no nothing, 1984, back when this show was good.
students: what happened to Simpson?
new principal: Principal Simpson isn't another victim of the Black Hole, Principal Simpson IS the Black Hole...

* Chewy: i'm the funny one. without jokes, i'm nothing.
Frankie: why'd you kiss Lola?
Chewy: dat ass
Frankie: now that's funny.
Chewy disappears in a puff of smoke.

* Chewy (up on stage on the mic): hey, so why did the chicken cross the road? never mind, hey, have you heard the one about the guy who was insulting a child online?

* hot Lamaze instructor: my beautiful pregnant goddesses, get out your mermaid crystals. no no no, you, gothboy, Eli is it? that's crack rock, get that outta here.

* Eli: so what, i can't look at you anymore? you're afraid you'll fall back in love with my handsome face?

IAB: wanna fuck?

Amaro: as long as you live you never really escape high school, huh? it would have been easier to take if they just thought i was too dumb to pass the test.

Liv: my husband.
judge: conflict of interest.
Liv: how so?
judge: well he's your husband but i'm interested in him.

* Liv (crying): Nick, i'll miss you so much. i grew with you. i didn't grow with my ex. with my previous partner, that whole situation, all those years with him, suffocated me, stunted my growth. i didn't have the heart to tell the shippers that it was never gonna happen cos i secretly hated him.
Amaro: who was your old partner again? Unstable something?
Liv: i'd rather not say his name.

SNL Louis C.K. / Rihanna Episode Discussion

learned:

* first, let me finish on Florence (hey a man can dream): sorry about the foot, i didn't know. i always was aware of Florence's particular aura, i knew what she and her songs were about, her with the firebrand hair and frenetic spirit, of love, of relationships, but the two songs she performed on SNL gave me the opportunity to watch the music videos proper for these two songs. this was the first time i enjoyed two of her songs in their entirety. LOVED them. i always had a crush on Flo from afar but now my crush is fully-formed cos it has context. i can't keep "Ship To Wreck" out of my head, that's a good thing, been humming it whenever i'm not blogging. she's better than Flo from Progressive. Florence from the Machine is a lot younger than i thought she was, i thought she was one of those 50-year-old cougar milfs. ship to wreck, love that turn of phrase. the videos are quite impressive, full of high spirit and an actual spirit, an actual doppelganger of Florence fighting herself. who needs symbolism when you've got a real doppelganger? and her real beautiful breastststststststs?

* Inner White Girl: surprise surprise, this is Leslie Jones's best work to date and it gets cut for time. general rule of thumb: whatever gets cut for time is good. i get so mad that SNL never learns...i'm so angry...i'm steaming over here...okay...it's okay...my Inner White Girl is calming me down, explaining things to me rationally, i understand now that this is just the cost of business, it's not racist or anything, it is what it is. now it's my Inner White Girl that is getting angry but i've prepared for this: i've got a Starbucks PSL at the ready.

---------------------------------------

* cold open: i've often wondered how SNL would fare if it were new during summer. it never gets to comment on anything that happens in summer and i'm sure lots of interesting things happen during summer. like i wonder how SNL would handle all the shit that goes down at Wimbledon each year. i mean that would be totally crazy to see.

Law & Order SVU "Parents' Nightmare" Episode Discussion

learned:

* this is weird. the father god bless 'im was struggling with the acting. but here's the thing, if he were more polished it might have been less believable. the fact that he was jerky and all over the place trying to generate different emotions is what a real dad in a real situation like this would evince, if he were a real dad in the world, not an actor. so he went the back end, but he might have pulled off a more believable performance...by being bad. is this what acting really is? this is blowing my mind.

* IAB greaseball: do i need a reason to pop in here?
Liv: yes you do you greaseball.
IAB greaseball: wanna fuck?
Liv: no.
IAB greaseball: aight just checkin'.
