Christ, that show looks terrible. There's that one ad they kept showing - "Cue up the Katy Perry because baby I'm a firework!" and then the laugh track erupts in laughter. The fuck?! He just recited words from a song! How is that a joke?

I know this is a nitpick, but did this line bug anyone else? Data minutes aren't a thing…data is measured in gigabytes.

Except they stole that joke from The Critic.

Yeah, I'll watch the meaningless bowl my alma mater is playing in (UW Huskies in the Fight Hunger Bowl or somesuch) but you couldn't pay me to watch all the other meaningless ones.

The War on the War on Christmas is called the Blitzkrieg on Grinchitude:

When did that happen? My only exposure to the Friendly Friends at Fox & Friends comes from Colbert, and I think the most recent clips he's shown still included Carlson.

What were the Taxi / Spinal Tap quotes? I'd probably get the latter, but while I do know who Christopher Lloyd is, I never saw much of Taxi so I don't know if I'd know that one.

Upon realizing his mistake, he apologized and correctly tweeted Sarah Silverman's address.

Thankfully there's no terrible Thursday Night Football on tonight to make everybody sad and ruin people's fantasy teams. We've mercifully seen the last of those for this season.

Just because it makes you uncomfortable doesn't mean it has to change.

I had no idea. It's been years since I read / saw anything Charlotte's Web related. For some reason I remember the rat is named Templeton, though.

Do you get Jeopardy! before Wheel of Fortune on your local channel? It's the reverse for me, and the episode usually ends about 7:56-57.

Me too! I've tried out in years past, and as you'd imagine all my friends are very supportive of my dream. Except one, who consistently says things like "do you really think you're smart enough to be on Jeopardy?" So if you see a beardy Jew telling someone to kiss his ass during the contestant interview portion,

That movie will forever have a place in my heart for coining "clustercuss." I say that all the cussing time.

Details on that are still scarce, so it's easy to forget about. I don't think they've really announced anything yet, like a title, format, or whether or not Andy Zaltzman will be prominently involved.

He's starting a new weekly show on HBO early next year, so he probably doesn't have time to do this movie anymore.

I like Monty Python, and I like Simon Pegg. But CG aliens and Robin Williams as a talking dog?! Am I the only one who thinks this sounds kind of terrible?

Was there some kind of feud over Spamalot? I'm not at all familiar with the behind-the-scenes stuff there, and I figured they all had hands in it.

It is really fun. And yeah, they're churning these games out at a ridiculous pace, but this one really shakes up the formula with all the pirate stuff.
