In television, a clip show is an episode of a series, usually sitcoms, that relies mostly on showing excerpts from previous episodes, generally depicted as a sequence of flashbacks given plausibility by a frame tale. While this saves money for the producers (which is probably why it is done), and can often serve to introduce new viewers to an already established series, fans and critics increasingly tend to view such episodes as an act of creative laziness, possibly even a sign that the show has jumped the shark, and the increa ...

In the final hectic weeks of Campaign 2000, Affleck spent his time passionately campaigning for the Democratic ticket, supporting Al Gore, repeatedly delivering a get-out-the-vote plea: "It's very important to vote.

During a stop in Pittsburgh, the star—along with Helen Hunt, Martin Sheen, Rob Reiner and other actors—spent an hour at a phone bank calling registered ...

In Clerks., Dante was in his early 20s and lived with his parents. He felt that because he ran the store he was independent and in control of his life, yet he was a big push-over who often agreed to go into work when he doesn't have to (hence his catchphrase, "I'm not even supposed to be here today!") His co-worker, Randal Graves, worked at the adjacent RST video store. The movie dealt with his problematic romantic relationships. Though his girlfriend, Veronica, had an extensive track record of performing fellatio (36 different ...

Estragon represents the impulsive, simplistic side of the two main characters, much in contrast to his companion Vladimir's careful intellectualism and verbosity. He cares little for appearances, and is mostly concerned with eating and sleeping (much to Vladimir's chagrin). Due to his pessimistic outlook on life, he has abandoned all hope of any alleviation from their suffering, and regards "Godot" suspiciously. This is perhaps due to the fact that Estragon has far more to worry about. Of the two, Estragon suffers the most physically. ...

The phrase is often heard in the musical community, where it is used to imply that an artist has compromised their artistic integrity in order to gain radio airplay or obtain a recording contract, especially with a major label, the classic example of this being when Chumbawumba signed to EMI after years of viciously attacking the organisation. Often, the label will force the style of a particular record producer on the performer, or insist on inclusion of songs by commercial songwriters; or the label may refuse to release an album, deeming it uncommercial, though this indicates that the artist or group ...

While not necrophilia, romantic connections between love and death are a frequent theme in Western artistic expression. In the Greek legend of the Trojan War, the Greek hero Achilles slays the Amazon queen Penthesilea in a duel. Upon removing her helmet and seeing her face, Achilles falls in love with her and mourns her death. The soldier Thersites openly ridicules Achilles and accuses him of necrophilia. Achilles responds by promptly killing Thersites with a single blow. (In some traditions, Thersites' accusation is not unfo ...
