Rant: Monthly Dee-Lights (11/22)

Just a note of some of the funnest content I consumed last month (in no particular order): – Sandra Bernhard generously answered every question Vulture had about Martin Scorsese’s “uncanny cult classic” The King of Comedy (1982), which remains one … Continue reading

Rant: Monthly Dee-Lights (1/22)

Applesauce 4: Paulapalooza!

[Contains unsafe celebrity-themed night-lights and SPOILERS!!!] The fourth season of The Larry Sanders Show (1995) was the series high-point for ‘Paula’ and Janeane Garofalo alike… not only did they appear in the majority of the episodes here, but also scored … Continue reading

Buttersweet Goodbyes

[Contains forgotten parrots and SPOILERS!!!] I didn’t find the third season of Kroll Show quite as final as the pre-publicity led me to expect… true, one of my fave characters (‘Dr. Armond’) did die in the penultimate episode, but then … Continue reading

GCB’s MVP

The first season of GCB finale-d this week, after a ten episode run… and (for my sins) I sat through every damned one of them! Overall I found the humour far too broad and slap-sticky for my tastes, and the … Continue reading

Second Time Unlucky

Last Sunday Ch5 were showing Freaky Friday… no, not the original version, starring Jodie Foster and Barbara Harris (1976)… and not the gritty reboot starring Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis (2003)! No, this was the bargain-basement TV-movie, starring Gaby … Continue reading

Sandra Bernhard as “Minerva Mayflower”

Sadly, I didn’t discover Sandra Bernhard’s work in chronological order, or in qualitative order either. My first exposure must have been through the sitcom Roseanne, where her tall, slim frame made her stand out rather dramatically alongside the plumper lead … Continue reading
