It was a tumultuous week in politics; forget Joe Biden's dramatic victory over some guy whose name I can't recall and cast your vote for the Bad Dads Top 5 Memorable Movie Politicians. There's nothing rigged about this election as we veer from fascinating portrayals of real life political figures to ridiculous comic caricatures - see if you can spot which is which.

This weeks movie review was the 2015 Sundance Film Festival darling Me & Earl & The Dying Girl. Jesse Andrews adapts his novel of the same name charting the journey of Greg Gaines, his co-worker Earl and Rachel, his former childhood friend who has been diagnosed with leukemia. This quirky indie coming of age movie features decent performances and the music of Brian Eno, so was sure to be a hit with the Dads wasn't it? 

We finish up this week with a review of the almost impossibly charming Netflix series Clarence. Just like the eponymous hero, cast aside any and all cynicism and enjoy this heartwarming and honest account of childhood experiences.
