It's kind of like Community but darker, raunchier, and without the meta-pop-culture overlay.

Are you listening to Marc Maron's WTF podcast, too? I'd recommend it to anyone who likes NNF and CDRR.

@Porkchop: And this was straight PG, which makes it even better. PG-13 hadn't been invented yet.

I've cracked the "Horse With No Name" code
And, Donna, I'm surprised you didn't beat me to it.

Based on just the first episode, I disagree. I'd give it a B- so far. I'm looking forward to the following episodes, which the consensus says are better.

@KMC: If AS is second, who by your reckoning is first? GG is lovely and all, but AS is luminous.

"Modern" doesn't always refer just to what's going on right now or in the very recent past. "Contemporary"is a better term for that. e.g. "modern history" begins at the end of the middle ages, and "modern art" started in the 19th century.

Don't just stand there, I need to clean up. Get me some water.

I don't know if that's true, Biff.

"genuinely funny", that should have been

Spielberg's War Of The Worlds
The beginning sucked, the ending was even worse, but everything in between was virtuoso cinematic storytelling. It reminded me of something I read in the Hitchcock/Truffaut interviews, that dialogue in films should be a last resort in telling the story, ideally used no differently than…

"First Band On The Moon" is fantastic, but I never got around to "Gran Turismo". This article makes me want to check it out.

I saw Tim Allen do standup at my college in '87 or '88, and he killed. I don't think I've seen a better live comedy set, at least in terms of how hard I laughed.

I liked this show when I was a twenty-something college dropout, it was genuinely, but I felt like a perv for thinking that Moose was hot. Then I found out she's five years older than me.

That's a nice way to satisfy the Canadian content requirement. I do miss living within range of a CBC station.
