Based on that ridiculously clunky, meandering article — I'm not sure how this guy constitutes one of our "better critics."

The Pam-Michael moment at the art exhibit is one of my favorites ever on the show. The bond between those characters was always one of the best things on the show, but it particularly works here when it is Pam who needs Michael's support—rather than vice versa.
Perhaps we can look at Margot's order as a test of Simone's loyalty to the cause (based first on what the son said, then based on Simone's sad face as she was watching them wrap up Navid's body).
Early in the episode, Heller cries out "It was an ambush!!!" in this really douchey voice after finding out that they were played.
While I did love the fake newscasts, I much preferred the television spots that were more subtle in their absurdity.
Noticed the same thing.
He pumped his fist and said "yes" in a celebratory manner.
I'm generally an apologist when it comes to the "rapey" scenes on Louie. I didn't think the scene with Melissa Leo was rape. I didn't think the scene with Amia was rape. But this one really bothered me.
*Am I crazy or was that the fat guy from the "Discount Doublecheck" ads running in the rain?
I'm almost positive Louie has used variations of his real act on the show, but it was surprising to see him use the *SNL* one. That's not a random set he was testing out at some rinky dink club in New York — that was the second most viewed act of his career (the first being his first gig on the show).
I've actually never been impressed with Finke either. She laughably pitches herself as the "most feared woman in Hollywood," but her Twitter has exposed her as something of a pandering moron who preys on obvious targets to curry favor with the Internet masses.
Glad to see the reference to Myles' comment. Deadline's stories regarding Community SCREAM "advocacy" rather than "scoop."
I never really bought into the Chinatown bus for the NYC-Boston trip. Back in college (2005-2009 era), you could buy Greyhound tickets between the two cities for $18 online. I believe the Chinatown price was $12.
While it's easy to condemn Janet and Ivanka due to the crass, immature way they went about pressuring Louie to turn the relationship into a sexual one, I think the issue is far more complex than that.
Anyone who complains about the lack of "comedy" on Louie is absolutely insane. Even the darkest episodes of this show have plenty of legitimately hilarious, brilliantly comedic bits.
The voice occasionally sounded more like Seth Rogen rather than Louis CK, but it was still a pretty damn great impression.
The problem is that, at this point, the show doesn't have enough hours to launch another full scale conspiracy/villainous operation.
I expected the same thing, and I haven't seen a single episode of Alias.
While the episode was compelling, the idea that the CIA wouldn't question - for a second - whether the IP address was planted is ludicrous.
But the whole joke is that the waiter WASN'T shaking Larry down. It turns out that "I hope you liked my service" was just a reference to the previous incident about the additional tip.
