The Third Estate Sunday Review focuses on politics and culture. We're an online magazine. We don't play nice and we don't kiss butt. In the words of Tuesday Weld: "I do not ever want to be a huge star. Do you think I want a success? I refused "Bonnie and Clyde" because I was nursing at the time but also because deep down I knew that it was going to be a huge success. The same was true of "Bob and Carol and Fred and Sue" or whatever it was called. It reeked of success."

The candy companies keep trying to sell you the same candy bar you're already buying but with a new Twist.
Did someone say Twix?
Twix is convinced that you're going to love their traditional candy bar even more now that it comes in a new Cookies & Creme flavor. And isn't that what Americans really want -- "creme" and not "cream"? Who doesn't like a candy bar that reeks of self-importance?
Us.
This is an awful candy bar that has no real new taste after one chew. And that initial fleeting taste is thankfully weak because it's also repugnant.
We wouldn't recommend this crap to our worst enemy -- no, not even to Debra Messing.
But don't give up hope. Milky Way has introduced a new version of their candy bar and it's Salted Caramel. It's also very tasty -- one of the few attempts at making the same candy bar with a tiny variation that actually works.
We'd also recommend DAVID ALL NATURAL PUMPKIN SEEDS -- they've been around since 1925 and they're tasty and also good for you.
