Oh, he can find a way…I'm sure of it.

Puffy Russell Crowe!

Ha, definitely. And Leo probably…as a consolation for previous disappointments.

If anyone ever did, I'm betting on Nicholson.

The giant blonde in the blue dress made Kevin Hart look 5 feet 3 when I know he's actually 5 feet 5.

I've been suckered into the Red Carpet watch! Gaga is a theater geek playing dress-up. Leo is Zen. Sairoise Ronan is beautiful. Cate Blanchett's dress is awful but she makes it beautiful. That actress from Quantico is the most beautiful woman in the world. And the gal from E! needs serious serious help for her

He really was very, very good in the original Rocky, wasn't he? I think the monologue he gives as Mickey walks down the stairs is Stallone's finest moment on film—but that, of course, is the film's big showy moment. He's just as good in the quieter moments and the offbeat humor.

This is a perfect way to put it, and I feel the same way. Growing up, it was easy to play Page's riffs and most of his solos. I respected Beck but at that age he just wasn't "cool" for me (probably cause my bands couldn't duplicate any of his songs). Years later, though, I rediscovered him—he is a true original for

Indeed, sir. Beck is amazing still, after all these years. He plays with so much emotion and fierceness, lyricism and boldness. He may not be much of a songwriter or bandmate, say in the way Clapton and Page are or were, but he plays both of them under the table. Always did.

Much agreed. Bass lines are the same, I think, but No Doubt's is much funkier. Very cool.

Ha…forgot about this one. You could give good arguments for Britta, too, I suppose…but I think as the series wound down, it was obvious that Jeff and Annie had a really great relationship, lots of chemistry, too.

Definitely! If only she moved the goddamned dumpster, though.

Ha ha, agreed. Although Jack and Liz had the best friendship on TV…still do, I think. Her "I love you too, Jack" was the sweetest, most beautifully earned moment in a sitcom for me.

Indeed. It remains the best of the Apatow stuff. Lots of heart, real-seeming relationships, and the improv shit doesn't bloat the film to four fucking hours. Also, it doesn't feel as self-indulgent as some of Apatow's stuff that too heavily leans on his wife and family, etc.

Me, too! And he was also a very great, underrated tennis play by play guy back when CBS had the U.S. Open. Used to love to listen to him talk about McEnroe and Connors.

I just want to pop in and say that the final act of this piece, the bit about the Super Bowl being a representation of the football season as a whole — from the eerie, uncertain murmur of the crowd in the beginning to the roar and confetti-laden finish — is beautifully done. It very nicely expresses something I

Ha…the George one is indeed the best: "Immmmmmm juuuuust trying to getttt me songssss on the albummmmms."

"You wanna hump your brains out! VABOOM VABOOM VABOOM!"

"Not unless you can learn to play the fucking theramin!"

"Sed a GIVE?!"
