I stopped watching when Simon left; any entertainment value the show had for me came from the absurdly improbable scenarios he'd come up with to describe why he didn't like someone's performance.

I have high hopes that this will be decent. Also, is there, like, one piano player in Hollywood who keeps getting calls to play iconic theme songs really slowly?

They died stealing the plans for the Death Star v2, and congratulations for giving Disney an idea for another movie.

Yeah, that was a bitter disappointment; the whole bit falls apart without the original song. My own similar 'grrrr' moment was when they removed the punchline to Cliff's "Fail-Safe" analogy during one of the Bar Wars episodes, I imagine because it sounded insensitive for 5 minutes after 9/11. I'm going from memory,…

Mickey: Your nose is broken.

That's an interesting thought. I have a theory that there were also other bartenders and waitstaff working at Cheers, and the show just never took place during their shifts; I also assume that these people just did their jobs and went home without making their workplace a big part of their social lives, and that's why…

I think that was more the writers realizing that they could take Frasier in many more directions than they could with most of the other characters.

No kidding, I thought Woody Harrelson sang the theme song for the longest time too.

While we're on the subject, we can posit that Cheers takes place in the Matrix because the terrifying IRS auditor who wanted to sleep with Norm (WTF?) and the terrifying barfly who won a date with Woody in the charity auction were played by the same actress.

Kirstie Alley was arguably a better comic actress than Shelley Long, but Rebecca as a character just didn't work for me, probably because the writers kept changing her to be whatever they needed her to be that week, whether it was a cutthroat yuppie, a drunken idiot, a shameless gold-digger, a creepy stalker, or a…

My own favorite Normism:

Gary was an idiot; he really should have had a lawyer look Harry's contract over before signing it. I'm pretty sure the "you must demolish your own establishment before any money changes hands" provision would have set off some alarms.

Excuse me, the proper term is 'room temperature.'

It was a rush job, man… I had to dash something off quickly and get back to work.

To paraphrase one Lisa Simpson, I know those words but that title makes no sense.

Dead Zone, man, Dead Zone. And never speak ill of The Prophecy… it may be awful but it's got so many great Walken moments.

Or what would've happened if the South woulda won. I hope this movie does well enough to warrant a sequel starring Hiddleston as Hank Jr.

Now that I think about it, would ANY of the classic Looney Tunes characters have cut it if they'd been introduced in this day and age? Daffy Duck is clearly mocking people with speech impediments. Porky Pig is invalidating people who stutter. Foghorn Leghorn's voice and mannerisms recall the antebellum South. Pepe…

Another guy I never understood all the hate for. GE is a terrific guitar player, seems like a cool guy, and has a list of credits that could fill a phone book… I'm inclined to forgive him for making goofy faces when he plays.

Sorry I'm just getting here now, but I think young Francis Ford Coppola would have something to say, too. You could get 30 iconic shots from Apocalypse Now and the first two Godfather movies alone.
