The Best Of The Last
Portlandia Goes Out With A Bang
Posted by Ben Cochran on
The end is near. In mere days Portlandia wraps up its final season, and oh what a season it’s been. Lucky for you, you can watch the entire season right now right here and on the IFC app, including this free episode courtesy of Subaru.
But now, let’s take a moment to look back at some of the new classics Fred and Carrie have so thoughtfully bestowed upon us. (We’ll be looking back through tear-blurred eyes, but you do you.)
Couples Dinner
It’s not that being single sucks, it’s that you suck if you’re single.
Cancel it!
A sketch for anyone who has cancelled more appointments than they’ve kept. Which is everyone.
Forgotten America
This one’s a “Serial” killer…everything both right and wrong about true crime podcasts.
Wedding Planners
The only bad wedding is a boring wedding.
Disaster Hut
It’s only the end of the world if your doomsday kit doesn’t include rosé.
Catch up on Portlandia’s final episodes on demand and at IFC.com

Call-In Commentary: Watch the “Promised Land” trailer with director Gus Van Sant
Posted by Brian Jacks on
Steeped in current events, the new environmental drama “Promised Land” takes the contentious issue of gas drilling and places Matt Damon and John Krasinski (who also co-wrote the film) on opposite sides of the fight. In the pic, Damon stars as a energy services salesman who goes door to door in a small town with the mission of convincing people to sign away their land for what’s known as hydraulic fracking, or in other words, pulling natural gas out of the ground. Krasinski’s character, an environmental activist, aims to stand in his way.
Originally slated to be Damon’s directorial debut, the helming duties instead fell to veteran filmmaker Gus Van Sant, who worked with Damon on “Good Will Hunting.” For a firsthand account behind the making of the film, we asked Van Sant to contribute to our Call-In Commentary series, where actors and directors narrate their trailers. In the video below, hear Van Sant discuss symbolism and how the film pulls together. “Promised Land” opens in limited release December 28, expanding wide on January 4.
