This is an hour-long comedy on Netflix. Kumail Nanjiani plays a tech
billionaire; Samuel L. Jackson is a journalist. Tracy Ulman is the queen;
Lisa Kudrow is a White House press person; Hugh Grant plays a stuffy

others.

My wife and her mother watched it in one day. They enjoyed it quite a bit, but
they are fans of romance novels and movies. My mother-in-law is also into

I trace a preference for redheads to early crushes on Ginger and Ann
Margret, but I liked both Ginger and Mary Ann. Especially when Mary Ann
wore Daisy Dukes.

I saw the clip of Pop getting ejected. I agree he was basically asking to
be ejected. I'm sure later he'll call it "load management".

I made it through the whole thing. 3 of us started it the morning of the
25th. We were done by 28th.
It was kinda like bubble gum.

Pretty Little Liars meets a bad (unintentional) parody of a Jane Austin
novel, only with fewer white people because Shonda Rhimes created it.
My wife enjoyed it and binge-watched it in a week. I was out after one and
a half episodes.

Ever since the money from his initial “Jeopardy!” run allowed him to quit his
job as a computer programmer, Ken has made his money as an author of
nonfiction… which means he does spend time studying trivia, but it’s called

I’m sure, if necessary, the Sony lawyers will come up with a set of standards
involving different levels of “knowing” the host. I can’t imagine — for example
— that someone would be disqualified as a “Jeopardy!” contestant just because,

Pat Sajak and Chuck Woolery might be two of the most obnoxious if not
outright offensive people on social media, but that doesn’t make them bad

Jennings' less tweetable problem with replacing Trebek is that he knows too
many people in the trivia community who would become automatically
ineligible to appear on "Jeopardy!" (if they haven't yet appeared) if he
