I guess Bill Maher grew jealous of all the attention that Kathy Griffin was receiving.

I read a story -- I think it was in Newsweek? -- about the Pope teasing Melania about Trump's weight. Apparently, Pope Frankie spoke to Mellie in Italian, asking whether she makes her hubby some rich, fattening dessert that they serve in her homeland. Of course, Mellie speaks Italian fluently, and President Stay-Puft doesn't. Ergo, the pope's joke, like much in his life, went over Donny's proverbial head.

Ironically, Marland worked with a much larger writing staff at ATWT than he did at any of his other shows.

Am I crazy to suspect that maybe, just maybe, Bannon ARRANGED for the stuff about Kushner to be leaked, but was clever enough to cover his own moose tracks? Ugh. It's a cliche, but it's also very true: there is no honor among thieves.

I hope he's kept under lock-and-key in some underground bunker in some undisclosed location. Damn, girl, lol. I don't think you have to have U.S. citizenship to get pissed about anything that's happening these days in Washington. Trump doesn't get (and never will get) that actions here can affect actions elsewhere.

Agree. I still remember the hell she caught for saying she wasn't a stand-by-your-man kind of wife on "60 Minutes." I hated it, too, when that Hillary disappeared into all those pantsuits. As Regina George would say, "Andrew, stop trying to make 'Brian Williams back on NBC' happen. It's not going to happen."

Actually, that's "career covfefe."

Meanwhile, in Hell, Richard Nixon breathes a YUGE sigh of relief. You do what they do in places like Sulphur, Oklahoma: you hold your nose and try not to mind it so much.

We're out of the Paris Accords AND Corey's poised to make a comeback? Oh, the covfefe just keeps getting deeper.

Heck, Nancy Curlee could've done wonders for just about ANY soap, lol.

I didn't know either. Frankly, I wish ABC had tried to snag her for AMC instead. AMC desperately needed a HW like Nancy Curlee at that point.

It's sad when a gig at a fast food joint offers more job security than a career within the Trump administration.

You had one job to do, Donny. One. Job. But, instead of just standing still, you acted, once again, like the asshat you are. Man, I wish it was 2024 already. And here's the irony: he was stone cold sober the entire time. (Which makes me wonder...what would Trump be like if he WERE drunk?)

Voter suppression isn't as "sexy" as Russian interference, I guess? If we learned anything at all from "Mad Men," it's that advertising is what counts with the American public. Find the right slogan and then sell the crap out of it.

Because he realized we had suffered enough?

Agree. It's unfortunate that we, as a nation, must adopt this attitude going forward, but we have to. We just have to. Otherwise, we're just going to become bogged down.

As soon as I read about Mitch McConnell threatening Obama with a smear campaign in order to keep him from releasing some intel regarding Russian interference, I knew that turtle was in someone's back pocket. So, no, it doesn't surprise me, lol.

Yeah, I don't feel all that sorry for those who voted for Trump and now regret it. I'm just sorry the REST of us have to suffer as well. Might as well get used to these "resets." I have a feeling TrumpCo.'s gonna have 'em on a regular basis.

IDK, I just haven't been as impressed with the post-Lakin/Edelstein stuff as I'd hoped. Too often, I find myself watching this-or-that character's dilemma and thinking, "This could be so quickly resolved if he/she weren't being SUCH an idiot." And the less I say about Jimmy Lipton's clunky, exposition-heavy dialogue, the better. But, hey, at least Gil Gerard's there now. I just hope someone cures his phobia about wearing clothes. Otherwise, it's gonna be strange watching Alan Stewart roam the halls of Hope Memorial wearing just a swimsuit.

I'm not as familiar with this show, so I have to know: why does Ann Larimer become psychotic and lock away Carolee in that mental ward? I'm watching an episode from Nov. 1973 right now, and it appears as if the two are friendly.

So, I'm bumping this thread to ask what the hell is wrong with Ke$ha. Did somebody mess up and give her drugs? Because, judging from her behavior and speech on the promo for tonight's episode, that appears to be the case.

Clooney came back once for a Halloween episode when he was on "E.R.," I think. Who knows? He might be persuaded to make a cameo in the revival.

IA. I think that's why they had Roseanne work at that beauty salon (a job which Crystal had obtained for her friend, IIRC, and which Roseanne hated all the way through) for awhile in order to keep Crystal relevant on the show. But the truth is, once they had walked out of Wellman and Crystal had moved onto selling cosmetics or whatever, there was no reason to keep her around.

TBH, I'm not a fan of "Seinfeld" either. I only mentioned the show before, because it (and "Frasier" and "Friends") seems to be most everyone's gold standard for '90's sitcoms. Just watched "Crime and Punishment" and "War and Peace" yesterday on Logo. If you believe the Harris' retconned history, with Daddy Harris as this philandering asshat who terrorized the hell out of Roseanne and Jackie, then it makes sense for Jackie to be in an abusive relationship. Frankly, I see the two-parter as one more opportunity for Roseanne (the actor/comedian AND the character) to dump on men, cloaked in the guise of social relevance. IMO, there were OTHER ways to write out Fisher w/out turning him into a heel in almost record time.

Frankly, I'm surprised he didn't give that man a sharp elbow to his rib cage.
