Oh! I forgot about this! He DID play Star-Burns at least once — in some of the group pillowfight shots in "Digital Exploration of Interior Design!" Dino Stamatopoulos was late to set, so they put the hat and the sideburns on him and had him do some long shots!

There have been three Human Beings throughout the run of the show, but he's not one of them.

Nicolas Cage's music career = Bob Pollard's acting career.

I remember them talking to me about that. I could have stopped it, damn it. Just one word, I could have shut the whole thing down.

Andy Lobo. He's also a stand-in.

"I just don't find this kind of music very ambitious"? Why? A great pop song is many times harder to write than some kind of ridiculous guitar nonsense. If you throw enough notes at the listener, it's going to sound impressive even if there's nothing behind it but a bunch of notes. The fewer notes you use, the more

Oh, I like Stevie Jackson's vocals. He's got this weird male-Petula-Clark thing going on… it works for the second lead singer, no question.

I really feel like the defense of "Fold Your Hands" always comes down to the same three or four songs. They were releasing a bunch of singles — couldn't they have just released "Don't Leave the Light On Baby," "The Wrong Girl," "Family Tree" and maybe "I Fought in a War" and called it a day?

In no particular order:

Are we just pretending "Neutopia" didn't happen? Because I'm fine with that, I just wanted to make sure we're all agreed here.

I hear Donald Glover's schedule just opened up…

If they completely figured out Schmidt in season 1 and Nick in season 2, maybe in season 3 Winston will hit his stride. Then in season 4… Schmidt again? This show does not have enough characters.

Only if he defeats one of the kaiju by hitting it with a giant rat stick.

Does EVERY British show involve Daleks eventually?

Cackles? Well, that really draws my goat.

Sometimes I suspect Teenager of the Year was the best Pixies album.

I only recently learned that anyone believes Bossanova ISN"T their best album.

Well, for the Pixies, that ship has sailed.

And you can't? Just because a band releases new music, that doesn't mean you have to listen to it.

Mallory hasn't been a girl for decades.
