Michael Jordan to Michael Jordan is allowed - 5 moves. Also, he was in Malcolm X??

George Mikan to Jane Wyman takes 9 moves, so that finally settles the Kevin Bacon vs LeBron James argument.

Actually, history's greatest travesty is that a Sesame Street alphabet was presented and this wasn't mentioned.

This video was the highlight of Shawn Bradley's career.

Dan Connor would like a word with both of you. Or, more accurately, his wife would.

A pregnant baby and a Catholic child confront power, childhood and death in 1940s Oklahoma.

Looks like my idea for a gay rapist causing an eternal winter got in just in time. It's called Frozen.

I don't really buy these reasons (perhaps number 2). I don't think people necessarily need escapism in sitcoms. Look at Roseanne, which was a massive hit and has a very similar setup to The Middle, and was dark as hell half the time. I think people like a bit of danger in their sitcoms (M*A*S*H*, Seinfeld, All in the…

Ted Danson - Cheers, Becker, CSI (arguably Bored to Death and Damages too)

Man, the space at the start of that headline will be the death of me.

You're not going to have to watch all of Gunsmoke are you?

I think Zack is just a young sounding name. Perhaps @avclub-c6447300d99fdbf4f3f7966295b8b5be:disqus should change his name to Boris or Ruth or something to emphasise his disturbing oldness so we aren't confused anymore.

I could maybe have it over 6 part 1, but I always felt like season 2 was kind of halfway between the somewhat self-contained brilliance of season 1 and the more experimental brilliance that was to come from season 3 onwards. It had parts of both those kinds of brilliance without quite nailing it like other seasons…

Season 2 of The Sopranos is the least amazing season, so…no.

That's totally different, Marty actually knows about these things. If Doc had bumped into Reagan and joked about him becoming president it would be a whole different story…

Oh God, "Vomiting Into The Gaping Anus of Christ" is so Goddamn amazing. I'd put it slightly behind his pear cider routine, but really any of his standup is brilliant. One of the two or three most important artists in my life.

Who the fuck watches half a trailer, comments, and then goes back?

This is an excellent lineup. This is all stuff I would love to read about or intend to watch fairly soon.
