reecently because I rewatched it a lot this early 2026. Comedian and future TV producer Brian Gallivan, being an English major and former teacher, used his knowledge to educate people about literature while at the same time being a source for emotional support (sassy) system with a comedy bite is ....there's nothing to hate about it and irressistible not to enjoy. Brian Gallivan was recently a cameo in Office Romance and was shipped at the end with (cameo) Tony Hale (which I predicted months before that Tony Hale is gonna get shipped with a man in the movie hahaha). But Office Romance has a half a star rating from me so dont watch it, it's not worth it.

The Holdovers, no question. let's move on because duh. The skating scene while that Cat Stevens song played in the bkg teared me. the whole movie teared me and everyone who saw it what can i say. the 70s movie editing vibe is always beautiful, too. Stuart Saves his Family is prolly the only in the top 4 with the rotten tomato rating but idc this movie was nostalgic to me, pretty misunderstood, and was released at a bad time of its release year. No one expected and were shocked that a SNL movie can be a tearjerky, down-to-earth, dark comedy family drama, thus its strengths were its downfall. Fortunately, this movie is still watched especially in AA meetings hahaha.

SERIALIZD TOP 5

1-3 Tony Hale can do no wrong. All of his shows are amay-zing so don't ask me why he is my fave and a constant focus in this blog. Veep, although I don't watch anymore, was award winning for being too real about politics while being too mature, over-exaggerated, and swear-y. And Andy Barker PI, was a light and delightful comedy detective romp executive-produced by no other than Conan O-Brien. Yes, do you know that Tony Hale had all in all five no -SIX - shows he starred in? Hency why he's still one of TV's greatests since the 2000s.

The sixth one was more of a web series called CTRL which you can see all short episodes on YT. It was cute, funny, creative, and was his first series with him credited as a producer.

Oh crap I forgot the two Archibald's Next Big Thing shows so he has eight shows total hahaha but I was already an adult when he released them so I have no comment about them other than I did checked it briefly and was relieved it's one of those mid-slow kid cartoon shows ala Kipper and Bluey. Not like one of those that seem to run on sugar and coffee.

So yeah Tony Hale crossed all age markets and you have many options which Tony Hale you want. Do you want the cute talking chicken or the sex-deprived butt showing older man during the black plague in Italy. You have choices, you have CTRL. For the non-Tony Hale shows...raise your hand if you are also still waiting for The Promised Land S2. Christian or Religious shows arent really the stuff of critical writing or acting, but this is different. It's actually good. It's like made by Christians who actually watched good shows and decided they want to make their own. Also this is well-casted and you know how Middle Eastern-American actors are always have a hard time being pigeonholed to play terrorists or other stereotypes, pretty sure them playing Bible or historical characters is more dignified. You wont find any blue-eyed caucasians in the main cast. What really makes a show or a movie that has religious or spiritual themes great is they don't pander to only that group of people. The Promised Land acts like a story book-documentary with a modern twist that is more of a reflection of today. It shows not teaches. Not overly preachy and doesn't act higher than thou. How they write or how the actors portray their roles, is very welcoming which you can tell from the channel's YT comments that even non-religious people and people from other faiths watch the show. It's this generation's The Veggie Tales. The Rehearsal's Nathan Fielder, pretty much you gotta expect he comes up with these every couple of years as that man is a genius and there are no lack of inspiration for his content.
