Read My Article “The Four Best Couples’ Movie Fights” On The Prompt
For those of you that have visited my site for years and remember when I used to write for it, good news: I’m writing again. But this time, it’s for […]
First, the good: There are still helpful people in this world, and veteran and DC-area comedian Dan Kaufman is one of them. He’s come in studio to promote a stand-up show he’s hosting April 21st at Summers in Arlington, VA to benefit his charity, Vets Float, as well as a sister show April 19th in San Diego.
Now, the bad: The reaction to Tuesday’s Roseanne reboot was fantastically fractured on Twitter, with liberals and conservatives in turn celebrating and decrying the show. I go through some of the more idiotic tweets I saw while watching the premiere, and also give my thoughts on what the show did right and wrong.
And, finally, the idiotic: Most episodes of this show revolve around finding a funny moment or two and then riding them into the ground so hard they emerge in China. This week is no different, and we roll with the concept of our beloved studio bear, Travis Dorward, selling his body for soup. It sounds stupid and I feel like an idiot typing it and attempting to explain it, but it’s funny if you hear it in the context of the episode. Funny the first 20 times, at least. Enjoy. Or, as Travis would say after selling himself for his most recent warm bowl, “bon appétit.”

If you truly love the show and realize money talks more than kind words (fine, we like kind words, too), donate on a monthly basis to the show via our Patreon. Some of the rewards aren’t bad! Or buy a shirt at Redbubble so people you walk past in the mall can ask you what a Papa’s Basement is.
