Can I still comment here? I can!

Man, Brigsby Bear flopped HARD.
I saw it Friday night with four other people in a fairly large theater. Liked it, too.

This is from Franken and Davis at Stockton State, a direct-to-VHS release that Broadway Video put out in the early '80s that aired on Showtime a few times as well. It is very, very hard to find, partially because (according to Tom Davis' memoir) they didn't sell very many copies.

So who paid for the billboards? Who pays for the car?

Alice Cooper's 1980-83 period is fascinating. He'd basically stopped selling records, he was killing himself with cocaine / freebase (just look up "Alice Cooper 1982" on youtube for lots of visual evidence), and he now claims he doesn't remember anything from those years at all. Despite all of that, there's some great

"whose star has been continually on the rise"…
Daily Show -> four episodes of Girls -> Hot Tub Time Machine 2 -> podcast -> Netflix movie

No lie, Chris Kattan is BRILLIANT in Monkeybone. A real what-might-have-been role.

For a Disney Channel sitcom, Bizaardvark is surprisingly watchable. I preferred Best Friends Whenever (tween time-travelers), but it got cancelled.

They've retooled the show in the second season; instead of hanging out at a tech company where they make content for a YouTube-type website, they hang out at their high school. And they conspicuously mentioned that Paul had graduated from that high school.

Except this guy was already 18 (and a Vine star, I believe) when he started on the show. So I think we can't blame all of this on Disney.

Yeah yeah yeah, but what are those jackets they're wearing in the top pic, and where can I get some?

Oh, I doubt the money was good…

But what's the last Will Ferrell movie that actually made you laugh? The Campaign? The Other Guys? Lego Movie doesn't really count.

Yes. Both Chase and Murray made movies that were at least minor hits, but they weren't critically acclaimed.

But are either of those really "Amy Poehler" movies? Her part in Blades is tiny, and I can't even remember her part in Hamlet 2 (Elizabeth Shue was the romantic lead, right?)

Here's hoping Carmichael has a longer career post-show than Titus did.

Ferrell is on a serious cold streak. Like Chevy Chase in the early '90s cold. Or Bill Murray in the mid-'90s cold.

Hot take: Amy Poehler's never made a decent movie without Tina Fey.

That college? Emory University.
One of the writers of the Revenge remake? Adam F. Goldberg.
Where did Erica Goldberg decide to go to college at the end of this past season? Emory University.

But then there's someone like Jennifer Finnegan, who's been a lead in flop comedies (Committed, Better With You), flop law procedurals (Close to Home), flop medical procedurals (Monday Mornings), and flop prestige dramas (Tyrant). Now she's about to do that asteroid hitting the earth show, Salvation. I think Robertson
