The Don cartoon doesn't look like Don much at all.
 
You gotta do better than that up in the NYC.
 
have blown through 8 eps. of Bloodlines in the last 2 days... good shit... i definitely recommend
 
Chewbacca appears to have a pig snout inside his mouth.
 
No but seriously man, there is some actor in the background (I think it's Oscar Isaacs representing A Most Violent Year?) Anyway he's babbling away in some vapid interview, and he just said that acting is like a tennis match - you're only as good as the person you're playing with.

What a terrible comparison.
 
Louie is as delicious as ever. :10:
 
Got the first 2 downloaded. Prolly get to them this evening.
 
I lol'd so hard at the beings from other planets bit
 
Yes, the bit about aliens was a, t, a.
 
Seriously though, in what universe is tennis a game where you're only as good as who you're playing with? There can be a vast difference in skill between people on a tennis court.

Why do people say shit?
 
I understand the tennis analogy. It's not totally crazy.

Playing racquet sports, your opponent's skill level does affect how you play. A less competent player will bring down your own level of play, in part because your shitty opponent is even less predictable than a good one would be. You're taken out of your comfort zone as someone who typically plays against much better players.

I can understand how that would also apply to acting.
 
Does not match my experience.

If he said that always playing with someone slightly better than you is a good way to improve ---> that, I would buy.

But tennis players at different levels where one just stomps all the fuck over the other ----> happened all the time in my cutthroat, tennis-to-the-death past.
 
They just killed off Patrick Duffy's "Mcdreamy" character on Grey's Anatomy.

Wow. Just wow.
 
The woman watches it. It's terrible.
