Is It Possible To Figure Out Bridgerton Just From the Tweets?

Everyone has been telling me that I need to watch Bridgerton. My friends keep saying I need to watch Bridgerton. Targeted ads insist that I gotta check out Bridgerton.

TWITTER will not stop suggesting that I need to watch Bridgerton.

And yet this this weird ironic quality to all of those recommendations?

I’m confused. And I don’t like being told what to do. If I’m going to watch this show, I want that to feel like a decision I came to on my own.

So here’s an experiment – I am going to look at some popular Bridgerton tweets and try to determine, from the tweet alone, what’s happening in this show and whether I should watch it.

Let’s go.

14. The Plot

What I surmise: there is a hot actor in this show.
Will that make me watch: maybe.

13. Xoxo

What I surmise: this man killed someone named Lady Whistledown with his scarf.
Will that make me watch: no, spoilers.

12. The Duke

What I surmise: Lady Danbury doesn’t like this Duke fella.
Will that make me watch: possibly, I love a good sass back.

11. Cake

What I surmise: cake.
Will that make me watch: yes.

10. Bee

What I surmise: bees symbolise bridges in this show, or something.
Will that make me watch: no, I am too dumb for symbolism.

9. Wisteria

What I surmise: in the land of Bridgerton, flowers defy the seasons.
Will that make me watch: ??

8. Eloise

What I surmise: Eloise is homeschooled.
Will that make me watch: yes, I too was homeschooled.

7. Daphne

What I surmise: Anthony is a jealous lover.
Will that make me watch: no, I hate triangles of all varieties.

6. Distraction

What I surmise: there’s a lot of sex in this show.
Will that make me watch: yes, for I too enjoy the sex.

5. Episode three

What I surmise: fancy dresses.
Will that make me watch: yes, I need tips.

4. Viscount

What I surmise: “viscount” is a word, apparently.
Will that make me watch: yes, now I need to know what it means and how to pronounce it like a fancy boi.

3. Glow stick

What I surmise: someone is injured.
Will that make me watch: maybe, it depends on how funny it is.

2. Hitting it off

What I surmise: this lady is some kind of matchmaker.
Will that make me watch: no, I don’t play with matches.

1. Pants

What I surmise: Simon has a weird member.
Will that make me watch: …yes.

Welp, guess I’m watching Bridgerton.

Have you seen it? What did you think? How much of that did I get right?

People Shared “Fake Songs” From Movies and TV Shows That They Love

This is gonna be a whole lotta fun!

Over the years, you’ve no doubt realized that TV shows and movies are chock-full of songs written for only that production….and some of them are awesome and pretty unforgettable!

A writer at The Daily Show named Randall Otis threw this question out into the Twitterverse for people to contemplate.

How about we check out the responses? Let’s go!

1. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.

Good one!

2. You know you love it!

Not bad at all…

3. Role Models.

A hilarious movie!

4. You bet it slapped!

And it keeps slappin’ to this day!

5. Does this one ring a bell?

Watch the video and let us know.

6. Your queen to be!

I really hope the Coming to America sequel is good…

7. Y’all ready for this?

An epic battle.

8. One Track Lover.

Are you familiar with this one?

9. The ‘Burbs is amazing.

It’s time to revisit this gem!

10. Killer Tofu.

Give it a shot.

11. For children of the 1980s.

Top that!

I love this kind of stuff!

And now we want to hear from you…

In the comments, share some more fake songs from TV shows and movies that you like.

Please and thank you!

What Movie or TV Show Makes You Think, “The Older I Get, the More I Agree With the Adult”? Let’s See What People Said.

I think this is gonna be fun!

And I have a good example!

I recently watched one of my favorite movies, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, for the first time in a few years. Of course, most people would pick Jeff Spicoli as their favorite character if they were asked (or maybe Stacy Hamilton).

But when I watched it this time, I kind of felt a strong kinship with the teacher, Mr. Hand. What does that say about me? That I’m getting old, that’s what!

Let’s see movies and TV shows make AskReddit users say, “the older I get, the more I agree with the adult.

1. Great show.

“Sadly, The Wonder Years.

I always couldn’t believe the dad was real, with his p*ssed off attitude from work.

Now I understand…”

2. Oh, Dad!

“Father of the Bride.

Watching it as a kid, Steve Martin seemed like an old grump.

Rewatching it as an adult, holy sh*t, he is the only sane person in that movie.”

3. Team Zazu.

“The Lion King.

Oh I thought Zazu was just an old fun-killer. What do you mean, Simba can’t be king? Why would you prevent the kids from going where they want?

As an adult and father, I’m 100% Team Zazu.”

4. Eugene Levy rules!

“American Pie.

As a new father, I hope to be like Jim’s dad when my little one is a teenager.

Caring, loving and a complete embarrassment to them.”

5. I advise against it.

“The mom in Ice Princess.

So you have a daughter who has a talent for and seems to like physics and has a shot of getting into Harvard. This girl throws it away for ice skating where she has only been competing for less than a year, where if she gets injured she’s done and when she reaches 30 she’s pretty much done.

There is no way she is at an olympic level at that point she would need years of training! Hell yes I would advise against it to!”

6. A 1980s classic.

“I watched Sixteen Candles recently.

I now do not approve of Samantha going anywhere near Jake Ryan.”

7. That kid was trouble.

“Mr. Wilson in Dennis the Menace.

Seriously, f*ck that little miscreant and his parents that turn a blind eye to his shenanigans.”

8. You’re right!

“In Dirty Dancing, Jerry Orbach just wanted a family summer vacation and instead learned entirely too much about his daughters’ s*x lives.

H also teaches an important life lesson to everyone. Near the end, he says, “When I’m wrong, I say I’m wrong”.

If more people could do that, we’d be in a better place.”

9. Ha!

“The Julia Louis-Dreyfus character and her husband in Christmas Vacation.

Every day, my wife and I are slowly turning into them…”

10. Stan the Man.

“When I was younger I rooted for Jim’s shenanigans in The Office.

The older I get the more I relate to Stanley and how he just wants to bide his time until retirement.”

11. Deadbeat Dad.

“Mrs. Doubtfire.

Miranda came home from work only to find her deadbeat husband hosting a party with wild animals in her home. During the divorce, he claimed he was unemployable.

Then he dressed up like a woman with professional makeup/costume etc. and watched their kids secretly and tried to kill her new boyfriend!”

12. He was right.

“10 Things I Hate About You.

When the dad says “you’re 18, you don’t know what you want. And you won’t know what you want ’til you’re 45, and even if you get it, you’ll be too old to use it.””

13. He was out of control.

“Top Gun.

Maverick is the d*ck who can’t follow rules and gets his best friend killed, yet Iceman is the “villain” for not getting into hijinx and having a co-pilot who’s alive.”

14. Good point.

“The movie Juno.

Jennifer Garner’s character is at first portrayed as a “square”, then you realize she’s a mature adult and her husband is a man-baby.”

15. Was he a creeper?

“School of Rock.

Like WTF?

An adult impersonating a teacher and taking kids to places where they shouldn’t be and none of their parents knew where they were?”

Are there any movies that make you feel this way as you get older?

If so, please tell us all about it in the comments.

Thanks a lot!

What’s the Best TV Show That Was Canceled After One Season? Here’s What People Said.

For me, it would have to be Freaks and Geeks.

If you haven’t seen it, it’s a show about teenagers in the early 1980s in suburban Detroit. It really was a great show and it launched the careers of so many people, including James Franco, Seth Rogen, Linda Cardellini, and others.

And, sadly, it was canceled after only one season…

So let’s hear about some more!

AskReddit users shared their favorite shows that were canceled after only one season.

1. Flopped in the U.S.

“Forever

It’s a crime tv show about an immortal medical examiner

Incredibly good show, but i think it flopped in the US and therefore never got a second season.”

2. Heard of this one?

“Awake.

Such a cool concept of 2 timelines, where in one his wife died, the other his son. Used both “realities” to solve crimes.

Just felt like they could have done so much more with another season or two.”

3. Almost Human.

“I liked Almost Human.

Who doesn’t like robot cops?

I enjoyed this show so much and then blammo, it’s gone.

Karl Urban was great in it.”

4. Here are a few to check out.

“Jericho (It was canceled after season one, but super-fans pushed for another season and got a few more episodes)

Limitless.

Terra Nova.”

5. Yes!

“Freaks and Geeks.

I saw it on Netflix for the first time and was absolutely dumbfounded that it just ended.

Definitely one of the best shows I’ve ever watched. I couldn’t believe and still can’t believe they didn’t continue it.”

6. A classic in the making.

“Terriers.

It only had 13 episodes, which coincidentally is also the number of people who watched it.

But it really was a classic in the making.”

7. A ’90s hit.

“My So-Called Life.

This show had me wearing my hair tucked behind one ear for all of 6th grade because I thought it looked so cool and sophisticated.”

8. Undergrads.

“Undergrads.

Early 2000s sitcom about freshmen in college.

Luckily a kickstarter was funded for a follow-up movie!”

9. Comedy classic.

“Police Squad!

Of course it came back years later in movie form as The Naked Gun.

But it counts!”

10. This was a good one.

“Eerie, Indiana.

They had so much potential for more stories in that universe.”

11. Sounds cool.

“Harper’s Island.

Not sure if this only aired in Canada or USA too.

It was like a season-long horror movie with characters getting picked off 1 per episode.

I was a kid when it aired and loved the suspense each week.”

12. Bruce Campbell!

“The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.

I loved that whole show! I watched them as they aired when I was a kid and was so heartbroken they canceled it.

My parents still bring up my reaction from time to time. I basically threw a fit.”

13. Never heard of it.

“Bunheads.

It was written by the same person who wrote Gilmore Girls and had the same smart, fast-paced humor.”

14. Interesting…

“Kings (2009)

A show on NBC that was a modern-day take on David and Goliath.

It starred Ian McShane as the Goliath King Saul character, Christopher Egan as the David character, Susanna Thompson as a compelling matriarch, and Sebastian Stan as a gay prince.”

15. Good Omens.

“Good Omens.

I mean, I know there was only one season because Terry died before a second book could be made, but it still doesn’t make the disappointment go away when you finish the final episode…”

16. Right up my alley.

“I’m gonna say Everything Sucks!

It was a Netflix Original that didn’t make it past the first season, but I thought it was pretty great.

It’s very similar to Freaks and Geeks (which is funny since they only got one season too) except it was set in 1990s instead of the 1980s.”

17. Selfie.

“Selfie. The one with Karen Gillan.

The premise is simple, a bubble headed social media addict realizes during a business trip that her life is a mess due to her addiction and seeks help from a guy opposite to her.

The show started being dumb, but as the episodes went by, it became entertaining.

Sadly the showrunners burned the character’s development by rushing the plot and it got cancelled before premiering the last few episodes.”

18. Missed this one.

“Pan Am it was actually a really good show from what aired.

A period drama that worked really well. I don’t even think the full season aired to be honest.”

19. Horror series.

“The River.

It wasn’t necessarily the best show but I really enjoyed it. Was a really good jump scare horror that I enjoyed and wanted to know the answers in Season 2.

Now I’ll never know and I’m sad.”

20. Whoa!

“Anyone remember Now and Again from the 90s?

John Goodman gets hit by a train and his consciousness is transplanted into Eric Close, a super-human government prototype in a program run by Dennis Haysbert.

They’re using him to fight terrorism, he’s secretly trying to reconnect with his family. It was nominated for a bunch of Emmys, but I heard it was too expensive to continue.

The only season ended in a huge cliffhanger. I’m still sad about it!”

Now it’s your turn!

In the comments, tell us what you think is the best show that was canceled after only one season.

We look forward to hearing from you!

People Share the Interesting, Dark Facts About People’s Favorite Cartoons

If you think cartoons are all rainbows and sunshine, think again, friend.

There is some pretty dark and disturbing material embedded in those seemingly innocent and fun TV shows and movies that might surprise you…or even shock you.

Let’s get weird with folks from AskReddit.

1. That’s a little weird.

“There was a Smurfs PSA that was made for UNICEF.

I believe where their entire village is carpet bombed.

It. Was. Nuts.”

2. Don’t tell me that!

“Ren and Stimpy was an absolute nightmare for the people who worked on it. John K ordered them not to make the same face twice. Pretty, but it was hell for the workers because they were constantly drawing things.

John K was a nightmare boss. One of the producers had a sign on his wall labeled “John’s knees” and invited people to kick it. By the time he left it was reduced to a hole.

They made several episodes that were just the animators ranting about how much of an *sshole that John K was.”

3. Great idea!

“The pilot of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy called “Trepanation of the Skull and You” tells kids that because of a mistake in evolution our skulls are too small for our brains, and that you should drill a hole in your skull as to grant the brain more space.

Which is then followed by Billy doing exactly that.

The whole thing looks like some cursed forgotten video tape.”

4. Creepy.

“Some of the earliest versions of Little Red Riding Hood end with the wolf raping Red and then eating her.

The literal moral of the story was for girls to not trust strangers.”

5. Whoa!

“The creator of Skeletor was inspired by a corpse in a haunted house that he was 100% sure was real.

Turned out he was right.”

6. Awful.

“The studio had to get someone else to sing “Soon You’ll Come Home” in All Dogs go to Heaven because the voice actor, Judith Barsi, had such a traumatic home life because of an abusive, alcoholic father that she couldn’t sing the song without having a breakdown.

She and her mother were murdered by him before the movie was released in a double-murder/suicide. She was only 10.

She was also the voice of Ducky from Land Before Time. Her tombstone reads, “Yep! Yep! Yep!””

7. Poor Donald.

“Donald Duck fought in WWII and has PTSD.

In an episode he wakes up and thinks he is in a Japanese mine field and he is in a lot of WWII cartoons.”

8. Creepy.

“Sleeping Beauty is only 14 years old in the original story and Prince Charming is around 30.”

9. Witchcraft?

“Adventure Time is full of occult references

My favorite one is in the episode “All The Little People” in which Magic Man says “Do what thoust will be the whole piece of law” which is taken from Aleister Crowley’s “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.””

10. Apocalyptic.

“The premise of Adventure Time is actually really dark.

Its the aftermath of a literal nuclear war that killed most of humanity and caused evil mutants like The Litch to wreak havoc on the planet.”

11. Oh, no!

“There was a Tom & Jerry episode where Tom dies and goes to heaven.

While waiting in the line of counter they show a wet sack with baby kittens inside it coming out and running towards train. Ticket counter guy notices it and says ” what some people won’t do”.

He’s talking about old times when people use to tie up small kittens in the sack and let them drown in river.”

12. Let’s eat!

“In the Peppa Pig universe, characters eating each other is slightly acknowledged when a couple of the characters are stranded on an island.”

13. Not good.

“The Carmen Sandiego reboot is animated by Top Draw Animation.

They’re a sweatshop and they fired an animator for asking for minimum wage compensation.”

14. Nuclear fallout.

“Bikini Bottom is called so because of the Bikini Atoll.

In the 1940s and ’50s, the US held nuclear tests there.

All the characters on SpongeBob SquarePants are like this because they’re radioactive creatures.”

15. Makes sense.

“The reason Mickey and other characters where white gloves is because it allows their hands to be seen better.

This is a reference to actors when they did black face they wore white gloves so the audience could see their hands and fingers moving.”

Do you know any weird or dark facts about cartoons?

If so, please share them with us in the comments.

We’d love to hear from you!

People Discuss Their Favorite Movies They Had in Movie Theaters

Remember going to a movie?

It would sure be a lot of fun to do that again, wouldn’t it…? Hopefully, we can do it again sometime soon.

But until then, we have to hunker down in our houses and watch everything on our own TVs. Sure, things could be a lot worse, but it would be wonderful to go to the theater, grab a snack and a drink, and see some movie magic on the big screen.

People recently took to Twitter to share their favorite experiences from watching movies in the theater.

It’s a lot of fun, let’s check it out!

1. This introvert was proud.

Erupted with laughter.

2. That’s pretty funny.

That guy got ’em with a zinger!

3. What a great movie.

It never gets old!

4. The Sixth Sense.

There goes the popcorn!

5. Hahahaha. Hilarious. 

Ritalin should cure her head from spinning around, right?

6. Didn’t realize it was a musical.

Do your research!

7. The books are awesome.

And so are the movies!

8. Burst into tears.

Wonder Woman to the rescue!

9. What do you think you’re doing?!?!

People got fired up!

10. The place erupted.

What a great flick!

11. A classic piece of cinema!

Right? Right?!?!

12. Horrified silence.

Followed by…this…

Now we’d like to hear from you.

Do you remember your favorite memories from going to the movies?

Tell us your stories in the comments.

Please and thank you!

Recreated Movie Scenes From a Very Creative Couple

Let me tell you, this is a ton of fun!

And we think it might inspire you to be very productive and creative during this never-ending quarantine that we find ourselves in right now.

Aylia Caulwell and her husband Dan have been spending their time recreating iconic scenes from movies and I think it’s safe to say that they’re doing a bang-up job.

Now, this is what I call “time well spent”.

Let’s take a look at some of their creations. Enjoy!

1. An excellent adventure!

Bill and Ted forever!

2. Home Alone.

Time to defend the house.

3. The famous shower scene.

Psycho is a masterpiece.

4. A little Lord of the Rings action.

Spot-on!

5. Are you a Twilight fan?

Just admit it…

6. Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze.

Let’s get dirty!

7. Gotta go back in time!

A timeless classic!

8. Are you ready to dance?

I sure hope so!

9. A good one!

Have you seen this underrated gem?

10. The Matrix.

All kinds of action about to break loose.

11. Here’s lookin’ at you.

An old classic.

12. How to Train Your Dragon.

This is good.

13. Yes! Heeeeere’s Johnny!

I love the homemade axe.

14. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

This one is all in the family.

View this post on Instagram

The fight for good has made some significant strides in these last few weeks. Breonna Taylor’s murder case has been reopened. They arrested all four officers responsible for the death of George Floyd, and upped the charges against his murderer. LA is redistributing $150 million from the LAPD budget to invest in communities of color. Marches have happened in all 50 states and around the world, pressuring our representatives to introduce legislative change. And all that happened because of the protests, the emails, the donations. But unfortunately the fight is far from over. Just yesterday, Georgia was rampantly suppressing the black vote claiming it was for the safety of voters due to the coronavirus, even though more and more businesses are opening around the country. It’s so frustrating that it’s so hard to get people in power to do the right thing. We elect them hoping they will take the responsibility. It is, after all, their jobs to do so. But it’s an imperfect (REALLY imperfect) system, and the way we fix it is by getting loud, donating, hitting the streets, making angry calls and sending angry emails, and never relenting. I have learned so much these last weeks. My privilege has shielded me from so many horrors – many of which were not even hidden. My eyes are being opened to the police brutality and the over funding crises and I’m mad as hell. But anger is exhausting. What we truly need right now is heart, integrity, and a fuckton of courage. So I hope this helps brighten your day, but never forget that the fight isn’t close to over. Now let’s start down that yellow brick road which hopefully leads to real racial equality. You can find a link in my bio with wonderful resources to help the cause.

A post shared by Aylia (@ayliamc) on

Those are pretty awesome, don’t you think? I told you this was a great way to spend your quarantine!

Now we’d like to hear from you.
