Oh, that sounds like the question that gets asked in episode #2!

Well, this premise sounds horrible.  Maybe a funny movie.  Not an on-going TV show.

Frankly, you have to be tendentious and full of preconceived notions to think that "someone who runs a company" is the same as "the people at the top of an organization who do the least amount of work."

The economy hasn't been good for the majority of the US population since about 1999 (it hasn't been strong since the early 1970s, but at least in the late-1990s, even humanities majors could find shitty jobs).  Since the tech bubble burst, the economy has just been lurching along from crisis to crisis, culminating in…

Since Andrew Jackson, eh?  Is this some kind of subtle critique of a centralized banking industry?

@avclub-cba2dc20f1a6f353b96d6a03846d0ad6:disqus , I think you just pointed out how Charlie Day could take over every Robert Downey Jr. role.

"Alright, let's shoot this fah-ker!"

I had something similar happen to me, but without the shivering and puking.

I do, every time I see my brother-in-law, who was born in Manilla.

I really do agree that, as a society, we've got it all backwards when it comes to compensating people fairly.  It's a common observation that the people at the top of an organization who do the least amount of work get paid the most, while the people lowest on the totem pole, and who do all the work, get paid the…

My brother makes way more money than I do.  I think I'm going to start charging him money when we hang out.

I liked Three Sheets.  Although it got kind of repetitive and tiresome, there were some great episodes.

Inheriting is the oldest and best way.

It's kind of interesting to me that the star and creative force behind the show is the daughter of, arguably, the least famous or powerful-within-the-entertainment-industry person (though you could probably also make this case for the one who's parent wasn't identified by name, but just by his occupation and band…

Oh, that's totally true, in the pejorative sense (and misuse) of "affirmative action," meaning "got a position one didn't earn because of one's own merit, but instead because people wanted to do something that would please one's famous or wealthy family member(s)."  George W. Bush is the most awful example of this…

How about raising money to buy a video from drug dealers (and possible murderers) that purportedly shows the mayor of a country's largest city smoking crack?

And all this time I thought the rivers in NYC were estuaries.

Surely that would prolong the filming.

"Just make your stupid thing and worry about the economics later."

30,000 years of advancing technique aside, @avclub-e576423831e043f7928d9ac113abbe6f:disqus , I'm still going to disagree.  Pre-historic humans had none of the comforts of modern people — and by "comforts," I'm talking about a soft place to lie down at night!  Every muscle in their bodies was honed and toned.  They…
