Yeah but who lost their balloon? Aliens I bet

Yep, and it's only 10 episodes so you could probably watch it, in the duration of a free trial.

Thank Gosh, now I can finally get some sleepin' in!

He once accused David Lynch of disappearing too far up his own ass, so there is that, as well.

I had no idea to slash was to urinate until just now. Thank you for broadening my vocabulary.

It'd be cool if someone made two versions of a film where the only difference was a character being portrayed by a different legendary actor.

"But those are the best kind," whispered seductively remains one of my favorite (and certainly one of the dumbest) last lines ever.

Maybe

The quality of their advice seems suspect in retrospect

I remember reading his assistant found him, not sure of the source on that though.

This book was displayed prominently in my high school library during all four years I was there. I don't think anyone ever checked it out.

There is a small amount of evidence to suggest that he was meant to have a cameo, though. Harmon had a cryptic response to a fan asking about it on Twitter, there's Abed's line about the hologram in the premiere, and this (possibly cut after the cameo fell through): http://38.media.tumblr.com/…

As evidenced (for me) by the breadsticks scene that was quickly followed by the coffee cup montage in episode 2. I believe Donna complained about that as well.

I'm hoping that's as close as the show gets to referencing meth, at least in the first season.

The pacing in the old lady's house felt a little Lynchian in its excruciatingnesss (remember the scene with the bank teller in the series finale of Twin Peaks?).

This reference (and others to that episode) has been used so often lately that I'm really glad I&S&P is one of the few Simpsons episodes I've seen. It'd be real tiresome otherwise.

Young and old, it doesn't matter… in the dark.

Before the reveal, I was sort of impressed at the crazy immorality = instant material wealth dichotomy the show was creating. But what ended up happening was more realistic.

I guessed it a few seconds before the old lady got to the bottom of her cup. Worship me! Actually, that was probably because I knew that the original title was Jello. Go back to worshipping your pagan gods.

I told myself I'd wait to watch it until it was on Netflix, and part of me wishes I'd held off both for that reason and because there's so much damn TV and I don't have time for any of it.
