Who's the 'eurotrash' promised in the 'cursor hover' teaser for this link on the main page?

Interesting how many times Bob Odenkirk's name comes up on this article. I'm really getting into Breaking Bad at the moment and when Saul Goodman started appearing I wondered why I'd never seen the actor before (then again, I thought the same about Gus Fring, and then it turned out I'd seen Esposito in lots of things,

What always struck me more is the similarity of the tune - "Six o clock already and I was just in the middle of a dream" has basically the same tune as "I was dreaming when I wrote this etc".

Anyone listen to the Probably Science podcast this week with Gallagher and Peter Serafinowizc guesting? PS is pretty much the nicest man in comedy, but he got pretty angry with Gallagher's idiotic racist ramblings about short Mexicans. I'm not sure whether it was a good listen or a horrible one. Probably a horrible

No, the line was as he quoted: "Steve's mad as hell, and he's not gonna take it anymore!"

"when he begins a statement with “interestingly” it’s safe to assume that what he has nothing of interest to say"

Bear's a bruin.

One of Derren Brown's books discusses him getting asked lots of questions after a gig by a guy. He escapes, saying "It was a case of 'away from the prying fan and into the foyer'".

Worse that Mr Saturday Night for the mis-matched casting for a decades-long story is Once Upon A Time in America, where Robert De Niro and Elizabeth McGovern are supposed to be the same age. Jennifer Connolly plays the female role as a girl, opposite a boy who looks much younger than her, in 1920 (they were both 13).

See above that an even younger actress got cast as Crystal's girl.

I don't see why it's a double standard – she was deemed to young to be his girlfriend, but not too old to be his daughter. There's a 17-year gap between them, so she's probably somewhere in between. Then again, Billy Crystal is five years younger than Joe Pesci, and Marisa Tomei played Pesci's girlfriend in My Cousin

"…this episode sucks with him it is great?" Well does it suck with him, or is it great with him? Make up your mind!

I haven't seen Ted, but was taking its qualities on trust. If even Ted wasn't great, then I have to figure Nathan was being sarcastic.

Mark Wahlberg's 'epic winning streak'? Is that ironic? Ted was great, but it was bookended by Broken City and Contraband.

Well much of that is tax on other money she's earned. So it's more like 'sistah makes $2.8m, The Man takes a percentage lower than in most Western countries'.

Note that the video cuts to the sideways lips when Smith sings 'can't'. That was a rude pun from director Tim Pope. Rob Smith once said the song was inspired by a line in a fan letter.

I think it's a hair reference.

I think that was a different film.
Oh, I see.

It's ironic that Bale has turned his back on Batman, because in cricket the batman turns his back on the Bail

It sounds really annoying. I can't imagine how that naming gimmick could be taken seriously stretched out over a few hundred pages. Is that supposed to be their real names, their stage names, or just the narrator's names for them? And two references to Scarlett O Hara is just unforgivable. Even if Maher didn't notice
