The Manning Brothers, "F.O.Y.P.": The Viewfinder

The Manning Brothers, “F.O.Y.P.”: The Viewfinder

Who are “The Manning Brothers” and what the heck does “F.O.Y.P.” stand for? It’s real simple actually, the Manning Brothers are, of course, Peyton and Eli Manning, football stars for the Denver Broncos and New York Giants, respectively. “F.O.Y.P.”? Well, that means “Football On Your Phone”. How does something like this end up on our site and as a “Viewfinder”? Because the Manning Brothers released a new DIRECTV ad, where the very white duo channel their inner- Lonely Island , and rap […]

The Idiot Box: Community: Season Three in Retrospect

The Idiot Box: Community: Season Three in Retrospect

“Let’s talk about evil.” – Britta Perry (…Well, let’s talk about some other things first. We’ll get to evil eventually, I promise.) One of Community’s biggest strengths is its veritable wellspring of thematic versatility. As a television show set on a college campus, it’s always had a sort of built-in proclivity for conveying overarching lessons, morals of the story, and general larger truths. Because along with that academic setting comes the natural expectation that the characters are going to learn […]

The Idiot Box: Community: "Contemporary Impressionists"

The Idiot Box: Community: “Contemporary Impressionists”

Egos can be dangerous things. Inflated, they can make us forget how connected and indebted we are to the people we love. Bruised and shattered, they bring us crashing back down to the glaring reality that we aren’t perfect, flawless, or even close to ideal. The tough part is that after floating so high above such a difficult reality and suddenly finding ourselves back in the middle of it, it can take a while to catch our bearings. We suddenly […]

This Week in Gay: Leaving “30 Rock” Once & For All

You know something? I’m not easily offended. I’d like to think I have a really good sense of humor. Generally speaking, most jokes-whether they be ethnic jokes, sexual jokes, whatever…don’t get much of a reaction from me (outside of laughter, obviously.) Well, actor/comedian Tracy Morgan started Gay Pride Month off with a doozy during a stand-up comedy routine in Nashville last week that I (and many others) feel crossed the line. Among the actor’s comments: “Gays need to quit being pussies […]

The Idiot Box: “Community” Knocks It Out of the Park

Our biggest problem as Americans is that we want what we want NOW, and it better be good or else. The problem with that (at least when it comes to art) is that we don’t always give things the chance to evolve and turn our backs on something we could potentially enjoy a great deal just because it doesn’t feel like we’re enjoying it enough at that particular moment. I waffled on NBC’s “Community” big-time last season. Initially, I thought […]
