what i have gleaned is that Ted Danson is an avocado

I should admit that as a nondrinker I have no idea how wine ages, but I hear it’s good.

Swilling Ambergris, Esq. (silby), Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:14 (four years ago) link

I ran into a friend who told me about “don’t fuck with cats” and I’ve got mixed feelings. I like the two sleuths who make up the interview footage so far, but take issue with how much crime footage they show.

It’s also fucking weird because I was in Montreal when the murderer was known but not yet captured, and I am pretty sure I’ve been on the block where the perp’s picture, that led them to that city, was taken. I definitely consider him a weird outer Toronto dude and not a Montreal native though.

When I first moved to NYC a couple of my new jewish friends were very surprised I did not know they were jewish when they pointed it out to me. They brought up their last names which I had no clue about. I was like "you just seemed white to me!" They still stayed my friend fortunately.

Ted Danson has aged beautifully

Dan S, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:22 (four years ago) link

he is no eugene levy.

Yerac, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:23 (four years ago) link

Eugene Levy has aged beautifully as well

Dan S, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:24 (four years ago) link

It is:

How can a man as old as Eugene Levy be hitting peak attractiveness?

Because he is Jewish

Ah, but it can't just be Jewishness that enables men as old as Eugene Levy to be hitting peak attractiveness because Ted Danson, who is similarly old but not Jewish, pulls off the same trick of being at the top of his game, which, by the way, is just another way of saying he's at peak attractiveness.

I've only seen a few episodes of Schitt's Creek so far, but Catherine O'Hara's browbeating of the grade school students in the third episode was so great

Dan S, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:28 (four years ago) link

Danson probably would have been peak attractiveness midway through Cheers but ‘80s fashion and hair didn’t do anyone favors.

Greta Van Show Feets BB (milo z), Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:28 (four years ago) link

I had originally been speaking about physical attractiveness. Eugene Levy had always been in a Rick Moranis category to me and he somehow went into Clooney mode in his 70s.

Yerac, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:29 (four years ago) link

Schitts Creek is so good. Daniel Levy needs to be in everything in the future.

Yerac, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:30 (four years ago) link

On the subway today there was a woman at peak attractiveness who looked very like Stevie from Schitts Creek.

Alba, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:37 (four years ago) link

was it during peak rush hour?

Yerac, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:39 (four years ago) link

Stevie is awesome whoever she is

Dan S, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:46 (four years ago) link

Yes it was. I was going to ask her if she was at the top of her game but then I realised that was a dumb question because of course she was.

Alba, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:46 (four years ago) link

Sleep is where I’m at peak attractiveness (that is, where I excel)

Swilling Ambergris, Esq. (silby), Tuesday, 7 January 2020 02:46 (four years ago) link

Teds some some good stuff but I can’t get the blackface photo out is my mind.

dan selzer, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 03:03 (four years ago) link

Bored To Death is also peak attractiveness for Danson.

don't care didn't ask still clappin (sic), Tuesday, 7 January 2020 03:06 (four years ago) link

yes

also a friend of mine dated Rick Moranis for a while and really thought highly of him, so i like him too

Dan S, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 03:13 (four years ago) link

Moranis didn’t do any work that would harm his ability to raise his kids for a couple decades, definitely
a solid dude

babu frik fan account (mh), Tuesday, 7 January 2020 03:27 (four years ago) link

I have a blind item from a friend of mine who had a single date with Moranis and said he was a total MAGA hatter

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Tuesday, 7 January 2020 03:58 (four years ago) link

MCGA surely

Greta Van Show Feets BB (milo z), Tuesday, 7 January 2020 03:59 (four years ago) link

wow unexpected

babu frik fan account (mh), Tuesday, 7 January 2020 04:05 (four years ago) link

didn't know that

Dan S, Tuesday, 7 January 2020 04:12 (four years ago) link

Better MAGA than a giant Slor.

Ok I am at work so just skimmed this but Yerac otm as per ushe. I just recently binged all of Schitt’s Creek and loved it so so much. Also, just last week I was talking about how Eugene Levy is hot now! Then I saw him in a clip from American Pie and it only confirmed this. It’s amazing, really. I’m sure a lot of it is down to the grooming and styling on the show but I can’t get over it. Also didn’t realize until like 2 seasons in that Daniel is his son and I love him and he’s gorgeous, yes, he needs to be in everything.

Bored to death was the show with Jason schwartzman, right? That was a great show.

You is awful.

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 15:59 (four years ago) link

Lol the Levy - Moranis - Clooney comparison is perfect. Lol.

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 16:01 (four years ago) link

hold up what is rick moranis doing in there

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 16:03 (four years ago) link

Levy used to be a Moranis but now he’s a Clooney as per Yerac’s v astute observation.

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 16:13 (four years ago) link

80s eugene levy reminds me more of donnie iris -- dorky but not sheepish

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 16:17 (four years ago) link

I can’t believe I slept on Schitt’s Creek for so long, partly because of the name and partly because I expected a certain kind of Canadian/CBC middling production value - how wrong I was. It’s so good! I even don’t mind the name now - it just makes me think of Eugene Levy magically, charmingly convincing the CBC on the title, ha!

I also watched all of See on a free AppleTV trial and it was hilarious/weird (and actually refreshingly diverse in casting tbh) and made me think of everyone I know who works in film/tv in Vancouver and what they have to deal with on a daily basis re: California $$$. Will watch again even though it’s hard to imagine that Apple will throw as much money at the second season as they did at the first.

Fully agree on Moranis-Clooney-Levy theory!

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 17:28 (four years ago) link

i am near a tv with POP for the next two months so there was a Eugene Levy - Colin Firth level wet shirt scene in the new episode. And Twyla is a Levy too!

There was a NYT article on Schitt's yesterday. I am sad I missed out on the auctions they have had on all the clothes.

Yerac, Wednesday, 8 January 2020 18:25 (four years ago) link

I like talking like Moira.

Yerac, Wednesday, 8 January 2020 18:27 (four years ago) link

Hahaa! Totally :D

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 18:27 (four years ago) link

I almost forgot that I watched most of the first episode of See! I should support Jason Momoa, knowing now that apparently he grew up relatively close to where I lived during high school

my friend's friend dated him apparently

gbx, Wednesday, 8 January 2020 19:09 (four years ago) link

so should i bother?

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 19:38 (four years ago) link

not dating jason momoa, watching "see" i mean

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 19:39 (four years ago) link

you should bother dating him if you have the chance, i'd say

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 20:26 (four years ago) link

I was really supportive of you for a minute there until the clarification, fwiw

babu frik fan account (mh), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 20:27 (four years ago) link

the jesus thing was an entertaining goof, never over the course of the entire thing did I stop thinking the minister was Fred Armisen

i'm late to reply (stuck in CES hell) but Alba nailed it and is authorized to translate on my behalf forevermore

but i'll admit young ted danson may have had it goin' on physically in a way that perhaps young eugene levy did not idk

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 23:48 (four years ago) link

No reason to be sly here, rogermexico. Say what you really want.

Eugene Levy is no David Schwimmer.
