Very solid episode. I totally agree about Besser—he's fantastic, and his refusal to allow Flat-top Terry to sign the birthday card was hysterical. I also loved Boyle's proud claim that he "beta-ed" Gina into protecting him by being such a pathetic sad sack (as well as her her disgust at realizing he might've been…

I'm a huge fan of Patton, so this is very welcome news, but I'm even more stoked about Judy Greer finally getting her due in a starring role (assuming it actually gets picked up). She's just utterly marvelous and deserves her own vehicle, one that doesn't involve her just being the best friend or (increasingly often…

The fact that so much of the flirting between the squad's two most badass cops was based so heavily on office supplies—signing forms, punching holes, stapling—killed me. Add in Zouks running away from Rosa's proposition in terror and that subplot is probably my favorite bit from this season.

So you're saying the MCU is far from over?

So the IT Crowd and the Mighty Boosh take place right around the corner from one another? In that case, I assume Richmond and Vince Noir spend all their time hanging out together.

My dad grew up on Bob & Ray and got me into them when I was a kid. I even performed a couple of their bits as auditions for high school plays. I lost touch with them for years, but then took along a collection of their episodes on tape when driving from Denver to Yellowstone a while back. Listening to them as an…

I'd be more inclined to try Shock Top if its ad involved TJ Miller calculating how long it would take him to jerk off every person watching the Super Bowl.

Woooooo!!! Now play Subdivisions!!!!!

Bummer. I discovered him on an episode of NBC's Sunday Night (that music show hosted by David Sanborn) back in 1990 and was blown away. I still have that episode on a VHS tape somewhere. He was as laid back, witty and clever as songwriters come. RIP, dude.

I watched Kentucky Fried Movie a bunch of times in high school, but it was only when I got to college, saw JFK, and had a friend who was obsessed with its conspiracy theories, that I finally understood Scot Free, the JFK assassination board game. "Great, you found a patsy!"

I recently rewatched Spaceballs with a friend of mine who's a huge Mel Brooks fan, and we both agreed it was mediocre at best, the kind of strained, corny, lazy comedy Brooks descended into after the unparalleled brilliance of the Producers, Blazing Saddles & Young Frankenstein. My friend posited that Brooks & Gene…

It's a shame it gets lumped in with all the horrible Scary Movie/Date Movie/Meet the Spartans kind of shit, b/c it's really clever and funny.

Kirk may be the single more obnoxious character I've ever seen on a show. It wasn't just that he was a total douchebag—he was obviously written to be the wacky jerk next door—but that he didn't have a single redeeming quality. He just used and used and used with zero regard for Dick or anybody else, and his behavior…

The only thing more off-putting than Rohm's wooden acting was the fact that she never, ever blinks. So goddamn weird.

Totally agreed. Even during the golden years, I found Lisa-centric episodes to be awful because they were so fucking earnest and there's nothing in the world more painful to listen to than Yeardley Smith being earnest.

Seems odd that David Bowie made me laugh harder than anything else on the day he died, but there you have the remarkable versatility of his talents. And for the record, I prefer the original "blows his bloated face off" over "blows his stupid brains out."

New season premiers Jan. 19th. Methinks the AVC got confused by the first season, which premiered Jan. 6th of last year.

Literally the only thing I know about Godspell is the performance of "Day by Day" from Wet Hot American Summer.

My mom had the original London recording of JCS on LP and I listened to the shit out of it as a kid. This summer, I really got into Deep Purple and, while listening to "Child in Time," I thought "goddamn, this sounds like Jesus Christ Superstar" (particularly the "I wanna hear yooooou sing!" in the chorus). It…

There's an awful lot of shit on that list, but give me some Stewart Lee and Stephen Fry and I'm a happy man, nonetheless.
