No, no, played by Heath Ledger in a terrible movie.

Wait, "The Clash already had two incredible singers"? Look, I like the Clash but I've never heard anyone describe Joe Strummer as an incredible SINGER. Songwriter and frontman, sure. But singer?

*gaol.

If they stick the ending, perhaps. Though, The Wire is a show that is almost completely plot-based, despite how great the characters are. I'm pretty sure I've heard David Simon say as much.

Jesus. I didn't realise so many people comment without reading the articles. And here I've been spending time reading the articles like a sucker when I could have been commenting off-topic!

Ha. True.

@avclub-3521a3a5bcfea0fe1189f8bc13af1f99:disqus Woah, I was with you until "Rogers & Hammerstein indeed are terrible though". Incorrect. And that's not the message of South Pacific at all. It's about how prejudiced people were against interracial relationships; for a show written in the 1940s, it's fairly nuanced…

I concur.

This guy seems to have a very narrow definition of what a 'song' is. Also: again with the fucking egging on of the hater? Jesus.

Flower power sucks.

I guess the story is significantly different, since my (possibly false) impression from the Thurber story was he had this secret life partly in response to the wife.

"There's nothing on him 'til '46, when he was picked up in El Paso,
Texas, for trying to smuggle a truckload of rich white Americans across
the border into Mexico to pick melons."

Two of my favourite comedies. Amazing ensembles.

"Why didn't you tell me we needed oil before I went back for gas?"

I actually hope this is better than the Swartzwelder books. They are hilarious but samey. I'd love a book that was as hilarious as those, but with a compelling plot and character at the centre of it. Since Handey has been working basically only in print for a long time, and Swartzwelder comes from TV writing, I…

I've had this on my Amazon wish list since it was first announced. I suppose I knew it would get reviewed as overly jokey and 'plotless', but I hope I think better of it than the reviewer did. The term 'concussive' might be accurate though. That's the feeling I got from John Swartzwelder's self-published novels, but…

@avclub-c2f009abacc7c0c2ffb11fea44fe8631:disqus Yeah, no.

They mention at lest once that Monica's apartment belonged to her grandmother and that's how she's able to afford it. Not sure if that's meant to be the grandmother that died a few episode back or the other one that we (I think) never see.

I like to retcon it myself so that the condom guy actually WAS Frank Jr, but because it's before he met Phoebe, neither remembered or made the connection.

So, are we still pretending Silverchair were no good?
