Enter the world of Edgar Wright , Simon Pegg , and Nick Frost - the unstoppable Brit trio that brought us Shaun of the Dead (2004) and Hot Fuzz (2007). The World's End is the third installment of the Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy , in which each film has featured a different Cornetto ice cream flavour. Strange, but slightly intriguing. The trilogy series has incorporated some kind of otherworldly element, almost intruding on what could always be a standalone comedy in the beginning of each film. Tell me more you say?  One pint science fiction. One pint street fighter. Two shots comedy. (my tag line) It's just eleven more pubs to go at The Golden Mile pub crawl to reach The World's End, the final pub in the Newton Haven drinking marathon that five estranged childhood friends reunite to conquer once and for all. It is the final pub which the lads had never reached 20 years prior in their glory days: 1990. Simon Pegg is hilarious as Gary King, a living-in-the-90s

Jesus' beard, I have missed Larry David in my life. It's been two years since David's genius comedy improv show Curb Your Enthusiasm has been on the air, finishing its eighth season on HBO in 2011. Larry David is back as the star and co-writer of the HBO comedy film Clear History , which tells the story of Nathan Flomm, a marketing executive at Electron Motors who developed the first electric car "The Howard," along with his partner (and boss) Will Haney, played by Jon Hamm ( Mad Men ). Flomm then sells his share of what would become a billion dollar investment, due entirely to his neurotic ways. Larry David dons a homeless beard, a Jesus-gone-wrong hairdo, and a Hawaiian shirt while working at the office, who, as Danny McBride put, "looks like the guy who kidnapped Elizabeth Smart" - a worse office getup than Curb 's "casual Friday" episode. The brains behind Edible Arrangements, Flomm asks pressing social questions like: "why ar

Jenji Kohan finally gets to do what she trickled into Weeds , whenever possible: a real lesbian portrayal on television. The Real L Word is no more "real" than The L Word - you know, those shows about heartless, confused, and deplorable lesbian femme characters who hook up for the sole pleasure of Showtime 's male viewers. And then Orange Is the New Black came along, 50 years in the making. What is the only setting (at this time in 2013) that would work where one can feature what lesbians really look like? Prison. Then remove the lesbian sex for the male gaze. Throw in a handful of actresses that are, in fact, lesbians. Offer up Jason Biggs because he is a harmless hetero, nonthreatening in any way. Make the lesbian setting comedic, with truly good writing. Poof! Jenji Kohan has created a universally appealing television show which severely pushes boundaries including sexual orientation, gender, and race. And on Netflix, Kohan's Orange Is the New Black can do th
