I'm so bummed about One Day at a Time being cancelled. I tend not to like sitcoms anymore, but the live studio audience and the cultural differences made it a breath of fresh air. Netflix keeps cancelling the shows I like.

They ran out of red shirts.
He wears way worse than a kilt eventually.
They're a couple now? How are any of these people able to afford the basic nessessities of life? WTF Walowitz is the GM? Is this some BBT spin off? Still better than Young Sheldon.
No, it's just that Simon Helberg is good friends with Felicia Day and Wil Wheaton, so he did a spot on The Guild for fun. He also did Dr. Horrible with Felicia Day as Moist.
Just finished up season 3 of "Hap and Leonard" on Netflix. That was . . . a kick in the teeth.
You and I must hang out in very different groups, then. Usually it was not a problem for me.
To lend some perspective, Dave is exclusively describing attempts at threesomes.
Me neither, but we shouldn't judge Dave when he's basing his experience off women from his younger days. It was a different time.
Precambrian.
I don't want to be the guy that says patriarchy, but... Patriarchy. It's a form of misogynism that some women internalize, where women are expected to compete with each other.
Oh good to know, I'll put in on my business cards from now on. Thanks, bro.
There's a lot of truth in this. So much of women's "value" is tied up in how they look, or how attractive they look to men, specifically. I have know girls many times in my life that if they weren't automatically the center of guys' dirty jokes or catcalls, they'd just be besides themselves, even though it really didn't matter. I have an ex-friend who I was close to in a co-ed group (we weren't the only girls), and sometime around her junior/senior year, she would literally complain if our friends weren't sexualizing her. And these were people she had been friends with for 4-5 years or longer. Somehow their liking what she had to say and who she was wasn't enough.
Now, I say I'm tired of that trope because while it can happen, more times then not we, especially one-on-one, tend to bond. But encouraging that stereotype that we need to be "top girl" rather than a friend needs to go.
To be technical, Jon Cryer is actually a cinematic Luthor.
Sorry, I meant "movie-based", rather than "movie and TV".
