This guy was insufferable during every single NBA-related broadcast (e.g., All-Star Weekend)  I've seen him in.  Man, putting him together with a corny dude like Shaq …. that was some of the worst stuff.  And normally, TNT kills it.

Don comes back as Sunkist or Chevy's in-house guy and tells SC&P to suck it.

It also made a future Bobby question what demographic box to check on standardized testing forms.

I kind of feel like Peggy gets a free pass from alot of people?  She's a GREAT character but she is certainly flawed in some of the same ways that other characters on the show are.  I have one friend who loves her unconditionally and is blind to anything she says/does that is questionable.  I have another friend who…

This is the only show I can think of where, when the season ends, I am eager to go back and rewatch it from its beginning.  The replay value on Mad Men is tremendous.  About a year ago, I went and rewatched the entire run starting from Season 1 and it was incredible how different S1 played for me having now known…

I was happy to see mention of The Pink Panther on here.  Growing up, my dad would watch them and so for a long time my brother and I would be quoting The Return of the Pink Panther for no good reason at inopportune times.  Those movies have a real silly streak with Closeu's buffoonery and I have to believe watching…

"Seneca"?  I think that's like my favorite.

@avclub-2dd78e6d27abfc8092491a5b76d415fa:disqus I appreciate your comment because I love that movie and the music in that movie and that scene in particular, but never thought to look it all up.  Thanks!  I've heard some Tortoise, some Mogwai, and a good deal of EITS, but never any GY!BE … so looks like I have some…

Neal's "Nothing's too good for our Lindsay" line in relation to the type of beer at the party (I think?) always cracks me up because Neal's idea of being a cool guy is essentially acting like his dad or a dad.

His guest spots on Conan have been tremendously funny.

The frequent talk of the war or the storm or whatever the metaphor used was is one of my chief complaints actually.  I can handle meandering if there is what I consider to be a payoff, and I felt like that talk was at least tantamount to a bargain that Gaiman never really delivers on.  Yes, we get the scene with…

I'm with you.  It's been YEARS since I've seen it but I don't remember liking it much.  I remember it looking great but I also remember being turned off by all the tough guy talk.  I have the same problem with The Usual Suspects, for that matter.  Too much yammering about by idiotic characters.  But in all fairness, I…

I just finished American Gods last week and it's the first Gaiman thing that I've read.  It had some really nice imaginative touches but, as far as plot and build up goes, I found it meandering.  I found myself awaiting a next gear to ratchet up the tension or story that never actually arrived.  Definitely feels like…

This is why we can't have nice things.

Yes!

Agree 100% with Mad Men and Deadwood.  I rewatched both in the last year and it was really great experiencing them again and with more depth of understanding.

I repeat view shows in their entirely pretty frequently.  I don't know if it's an insecurity or something but I want to make sure I understand why I liked something as much as I did before I recommend it to someone and impose on their time.  I'm mainly thinking of my brother here who shares the same sensibilities as…

The "not trust myself" thing is something that particularly hits me with music, which is admittedly off topic for the substance of this article and your post.  But I've found that there are albums that take me many many listens or revisits to properly "get."  There are plenty of albums that I now love that I didn't…

@BadHorse:disqus Actually, as I was reading the article, Mad Men was the show I thought about most.  There's so much nuance and suggestion in the way it's written and filmed that you pretty much have to watch each episode twice to make the "proper" reads.  And when I rewatched the show's entire run to date a few…

Actually this one might be more funny: http://www.youtube.com/watc…
