Travis Sheldon Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 All this time I thought the Unknown Hinson persona was a character. Looks like Early Cuyler was the leader of the pack in the personality department with Mr Baker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driver Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 That promo pic for 9 to 5 is amazing. Been watching Teenage Bounty Hunters. Funny show and easily bingeable. Nice to see Kadeem Hardison again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early's characteristics lead one to believe he is an extreme redneck hillbilly. Stuart Baker is the real person behind the Unknown Hinson character, as well. This has been popup trivia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario Hobb Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I appreciate Stuart Baker taking one for the team and saving the world from more Squidbillies. 2020 has been horrible enough as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HumanChessgame Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I've seen Unknown Hinson live a couple of times and he always put on an entertaining show. He could play guitar like a motherfucker and would always take the time to talk to people for a while after shows while maintaining kayfabe better than most wrestlers. I don't follow him on social media, but it sounds like he always stayed in character there as well, only it's now become clear he had pulled a Flair in becoming his gimmick, or always just was that way. What is it with Adult Swim shows either disappearing overnight or staying on the air for years past their sell by date? 1 hour ago, RolandTHTG said: Holy fuck. Lovecraft Country was fucking awesome. I was unimpressed with the book but really enjoyed the first episode. Hopefully it's a case of good ideas finding a better medium and larger group of creators to give it a proper outlet.

Craig H Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I'm doing a re-watch of Justified, but this time with my wife who has never seen it. She knows I'm a huge fan of Timothy Olyphant and my glee of seeing him in the Good Place from months ago probably helped convince her to watch it. It is as fucking awesome as I remember. What I forgot though was how the first 5 or 6 episodes are basically like a non-serialized USA TV show. My wife goes, "so, does every episode end with Raylan killing someone and it being...justified?" And I had to explain how they changed direction about midway through the first season to make it more serialized. We didn't even get to the end of season 1 before she was in love with most of the characters, namely Raylan, Art, Boyd, Gutterson, Wynn Duffy, Wynn Duffy's eyebrows, Winona, Dewey, etc. Even I found myself liking Dewey way more this time around and I HATED him the first time I watched Justified. Justified is easily one of my all-time favorite series and it's fun to revisit it. I think the only thing I'm dreading is the Michael Rappoport season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was 14 in 1995, and Tyra Banks was probably the single most sympathetic person on earth in the eyes of a young supremebve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 His recent rant about COVID was pretty hilarious. It was 95% 'fuck's. I do like his acting and a lot of stuff he's in, and love him for directing the Tribe Called Quest doc, but he does seem like a really annoying dude to be around in real life.

Granted, I canceled my HBO subscription and won't be watching the rest for several months, but it would have to get significantly weirder to really grab my imagination. But, a good start, and timely.

driver Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I've heard Rappaport interviewed a lot over the years. He definitely comes across as abrasive. Heard him interviewed today and he used the word "dope" so many times that it was bordering on parody. Considering his age he should go all in on trying to bring back "DEF!" Best performance I've ever seen him have was his brief role in the [i[Kiss Of Death[/i] remake where he uttered something along the lines of "Why're you guys dressed up like the Gorton's fisherman?"

RIPPA Posted August 21, 2020 Author Share Posted August 21, 2020 Comedy Central has decided to change course and has cancelled Tosh.0 after giving it a 4 season renewal in January It's upcoming 12th season will be its last. 10 episodes starting Sept 15 with the finale on Nov 24 Apparently ViacomCBS is going to help shop the show to other networks and based on a tweet from Tosh himself - it appears it is because Comedy Central is focusing on just animated shows Comedy Central had the same change of mind with Drunk History announcing it was cancelled after renewing it earlier this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
