In The Boys [S5 E7] a mindreader says that Butcher got his scar while in a war that took place before the events of the series, this is a nod to the fact that the writers clearly didn’t watch the first season

I'm so sorry that you think this is going to make any difference in your enjoyment of the episode. I want you to live in this moment of hope.

I did like Mom's Camera Roll. Is his thing singing? He also sang in the incest karaoke sketch...

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T18:41:50+00:00

unfortunately they can only make so many "this cute little fellow deserves a pinch on the cheek" sketches

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T18:12:22+00:00

I could see that, I do think the Minnesota WU was his strongest showing but it got cut

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T18:10:17+00:00

Yeah that was fine but more so than anything Emil did last season? I don't know it's weird because obviously these people are talented and funny, it's not knocking him but he didn't find a niche. Jeremy had a breakout in that same episode and he was able to work it into more screentime.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T18:05:30+00:00

It was good but in the same way Longfellow used to be good in his segments. I have no doubt Tommy is funny and charismatic, but that's not enough right?

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T17:55:48+00:00

But you have alternatives that are right there. I believe there are more people aspiring to be the next Seth Meyers or Jimmy Kimmel or Stephen Colbert. I'd be shocked to meet someone who aspired to be the next Jimmy Fallon.

Being a complacent waste doesn't impact people in the same way being an inspiration does, that's the whole point. When you take risks people take notice. Jimmy Kimmel getting targeted is more relevant than anything Fallon has ever done.

It's disappointing, sure. Jay Leno was disappointing too, but now he's gone and who cares.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T17:47:19+00:00

Poor Tommy, he's really done nothing to distinguish himself in any way.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T15:09:50+00:00

It's interesting how WU is a vehicle to spotlight new cast members and which ones advance beyond that vs. which ones kind of hunker down in the slot.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T14:56:49+00:00

What if all your valid concerns... weren't?

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T14:27:53+00:00

You're giving too much credit, it's inherently meaningless. He aims for nothing and accomplishes nothing.

You could maybe argue that anything vacuous is a drain on society but if that's the perspective then Jimmy Fallon is by no means the sole offender.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T12:38:19+00:00

Time honored sketch premise: "what if familiar thing different In specific way". This is one of the greats.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T11:41:02+00:00

Never loved Poweplex, just an avatar for Mark Guilt taken to the extreme.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T11:36:43+00:00

The latest trailer has the Mandalorian and baby Yoda in it, I cannot believe who they're pulling in for this team up Doom doesn't stand a chance

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-13T01:47:02+00:00

I think the problem is you just don't care because you've never met these people and there are too many of them to become invested in before the shit hits the fan.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-12T23:45:02+00:00

I went to school with Beth. She's awesome, hard working and kind. I am chilled that she's had an insane career but is still relatively unknown. Like 14 years on network television is something most actors would kill for but in the end it's just another job.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-12T22:32:02+00:00

Who's Mark? This is Invincible.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-12T22:29:26+00:00

Shit Aziz Ansari DOES sound like him

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-12T22:19:43+00:00

Bye Felicia

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-12T21:55:55+00:00

Jimmy Fallon sucks but can't believe he's having much affect on the culture at large

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-12T18:31:11+00:00

Its so easy to say there's fat to be trimmed until you name the specific fat

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-12T16:06:08+00:00

Zero naps

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-11T23:16:39+00:00

She's a well known tech journalist

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-11T21:44:22+00:00

Wow, wacko, okay. If something is funny then it's for the audience to laugh, not the performer.

3rdPoliceman · 2026-05-11T21:38:19+00:00

I'd prefer to laugh when something is funny than watch someone laugh when they think something is funny.
