 Posted on June 13, 2024  |  8 minutes  |  1571 words  |  Janel Helmers

My Calvin and Hobbes anthologies sat unread at home on the highest shelf of my parents’ living room bookcase for almost ten years. My father sent them to me last week, and when they arrived in a beat-up box lined with tennis ball cans (don’t ask), I couldn’t even think of the last time I flipped through Homicidal Psycho Jungle Cat or Weirdos from Another Planet, or any of the 12 collections my mom bought me when I was a kid.

 Posted on June 13, 2024  |  13 minutes  |  2563 words  |  Aldo Pusey

On a recent Tuesday, Whitney Cummings, 30, one of the most powerful women in lowbrow comedy and also one of the most disdained, bounds into her hospital-blue office in Burbank, California, to meet the writing staff of Love You, Mean It With Whitney Cummings, her new E! talk show. This is the third show that she has on TV this year—the other two are NBC’s Whitney, based on her long-term, non-altar-focused relationship, and CBS’s 2 Broke Girls, which she co-created with Sex and the City’s Michael Patrick King—but this is the one she’s counting on to reestablish her bona fides as a stand-up personality instead of just a sitcom star.

My first exposure to what would become branded as Blue Collar Comedy was when I was a little kid attending a church talent show in Moundsville, West Virginia. There was a guy who donned a tucked-in flannel and just went up and read a bunch of Jeff Foxworthy’s “You might be a redneck” jokes off of index cards. He killed, and I connected, because those jokes seemed like they were written about the very people I grew up around. [Read More]

Teenage girls collude through song; music is a secret code, a signal, a warning. Maybe that’s why Showtime’s Yellowjackets is so good at reaching deep into my lizard brain and splattering my adolescent memories all over the screen. Like in the second episode, right after teenage Misty (played with impeccable ick by Samantha Hanratty) chops off her coach’s mangled leg, the chorus to “Mother, Mother,” Tracy Bonham’s 1996 alternative chart topper — “I’m hungry / I’m tired / I’m losing my mind / everything’s fine” — drops at full volume.
