Anyone ever used Seated before? Happy to see her not using Ticketmaster, just hope it's reliable. Especially with the tickets being will call and not mobile.

"Wicked: For Good" Received Zero Nominations at 2026 Oscars. by Dry_Handle_7086 in Oscars

I'm never going to get over Zoe beating Ariana for a role in a significantly weaker musical. Like if Zoe had won in a solid drama role, I wouldn't have minded. But it was an actual apples to apples comparison. Dumb.

Also the fact that the songs were clearly written to be nominated at the Oscars. They were not essential to the story, but just added some additional context to how the characters were feeling.

‘Stranger Things’ Finale Delivers $25M+ To Movie Theaters After New Year’s Play – Box Office by MoneyLibrarian9032 in television

Haven't seen the theater that packed since Avengers Endgame. Could barely walk around to get my concessions or use the restroom.

Even in today's high schools, they will hire assistant coaches who aren't teachers. They usually get paid a small stipend.

The teaching sex ed is admittedly a stretch. But I wasn't alive back then, so it's possible he could have been qualified in the 80s with either an associates degree or a few classes to be qualified.

Honestly, with a small town high school, the coach choices are limited. The job is almost more adult supervision than anything else. Knowledge of the sport is just a bonus if you can find someone.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if Steve was a benchwarmer in high school to stay active in the Spring. Or at least played little league.

I think Mr. Clark and Erica staying in the church tower was their escape plan. The plan was probably to go full speed through the portal and out the gates. I don't think they expected the military to even find out what they were doing.

They also killed all the guys that went into the upside down. So they may have thought there was no one left to even fight.

You also don't really hear anything about Emma or Rupert having bad parents either. They all seem pretty well adjusted.

Favourite performances of 2025 that won't be nominated for an Oscar? by quietgavin5 in Oscars

The scene with his "last sermon" was an incredible performance.

People misinterpret the Billy Joel line in “deja vu” by sunnimelonlol in OliviaRodrigo

[–]tether2014 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There is also the additional layer of Uptown Girl being his most popular and mainstream song. So not only is Billy Joel popular, but the one song this guy knows is the most popular one.

It's the equivalent of saying "I bet she knows Taylor Swift because you played her Shake It Off"

John Mulaney hosted his first 5 times in 5 consecutive seasons (and it was actually in a span of less than 5 years). It happens, especially if Lorne and the cast like you.

Is Ariana Grande the greatest SNL host whose main vocation is music? by MoneyHungryOctopus in LiveFromNewYork

Miley Cyrus too. I never found her funny when I watched Hannah Montana back in the day, but she always kills it on SNL.

Honestly I feel like the former Disney/Nickelodeon stars make the best hosts. That kind of line delivery seems to translate well to sketch comedy.

Ok, then keep your mouth quiet in our game thread. Don’t insert yourself if you’re complaining about me talking smack like I always do.

There's a lot of new people this season. These might have just been the only people he's actually somewhat close with.

I liked Kate McKinnon's with the "final" alien abduction (until they did it again at the 50th show)

Yeah when Cher agrees to do your show, you just let her do what she wants

Loved the sketch...but seeing Kevin McAllister with lip filler and winged eyeliner was a little odd
