This show is still on?

If this was written by someone else, I would have liked it.

My dream TCM for TV station would probably be completist, or at least would run classic seasons. It would feature:

We get it on Dish Network. Have the DVR to record episodes of M*A*S*H and Bosom Buddies. But I think my DVR is racist because I set it to record Sanford & Son and it records Good Times half the time instead.

Welcome to the AV Club, Britta.

My pet peeve is people complaining that an actor wasn't asked about their little pet favorite movie, but I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DIDN'T ASK HIM ABOUT 'THE HIT'!!!!!!!!

Sunny and Tenacious, it should have been you.

Someone's been listening to his Lou Reed.

This is the band, the band that litigates. / Here come the douches. / They're American douches, made in America. / Weeping, or non-weeping?

Straight up A for me. Dense, cinematic, affecting, ambitious, intimate. Favorite new album since Kanye.

Tell that to Billy Colman.
