'Love' is what hopefully remains when 'the idea of being in love' dies. Before we commit to any future relationship plans, we should ask ourselves is it really love or are we still in the stage where we're enjoying the idea of being in love. Interestingly, this was said by the priest… Read More

Frasier had some all-time belters: After a device called a 'Hot n Foamy' covered Niles in hot shaving foam, he responds to a question about how he's feeling, totally deadpan, with, "Just a little hot...and foamy!" When Frasier is asked if he's ever heard of the concept of 'Less… Read More

I don't know whether you'd call this drama, but I found it very strange. I used to work at one of the busiest cinemas in the UK. It was not uncommon for people to propose in the cinema - it's the site of a lot of first dates which makes it romantic if that first date eventually led… Read More

When heavy metal fans are portrayed as (at best) the loveable doofus. Don't get me wrong, as a stereotype there are far worse things to be portrayed as (no one's making a 'The Problem With Apu'-type documentary about Otto from The Simpsons), and those characters do exist in the Heavy… Read More

The episode '5/1' from 'The Newsroom' with Jeff Daniels (a show that more people should watch). Whilst there are other subplots going on, it's framed around the team reporting on the news that Osama Bin Laden had been killed. I'm from the UK, where that was just another normal news… Read More

That Eddie Murphy didn't get (or wasn't eligible for, I'm not sure) at least a nomination for 'Dolemite is my Name' is everything wrong with the Oscars in a nutshell. I'm a white millennial from the UK - literally knew nothing about the character going into the film - yet I was totally… Read More

I'm in the minority in my social circle in my belief that Heath Ledger would have won the Oscar for 'The Dark Knight' even if he hadn't died. Most of my friends reckon the award was grief-motivated. Another one I truly believe the Academy got wrong was Best Song that year 'Return… Read More

One of my friends had her wedding ring stolen while she was having an epileptic seizure (because people are scum). It made the local news and into some national papers. Andrew WK was touring at the time and privately sent her and her husband 2 free tickets. No publicity - it was just… Read More

OK, half the comedy of Frasier was seeing how disastrously he could ruin a relationship, but over the course of 11 seasons, there were 2 women that he really should have settled down with; Faye and Claire. Faye was a pastry chef in Frasier's favourite restaurant, brought out Frasier's… Read More

We all know how awesome Jackie Chan is, but there's an otherwise forgettable film he did called "Who Am I?" (Spoiler; amnesia is a plot point), which culminates in one of his most jaw-dropping fight scenes in which he fights two bad guys simultaneously on top of a skyscaper. These… Read More
