I know a lot of people here hate them, but this awesome video will hopefully show people that at least they have a sense of humor about themselves. And since I already love them, it just makes me like them all the more.

It has some pretty funny things, it's not ALWAYS sports (though it usually is), and it has slightly fewer insufferable people than Gawker and Jezebel.

I'll give you that he doesn't come off that well here. And I wonder if part of that is that his shtick is kinda predicated on his audience already understanding who and why he is, on Deadspin/KSK/wherever. Here, one might call him "out of his fuckin' element."

There's a pretty substantial difference of opinion here. The people who actually know anything at all about Drew Magary like him; the people who know nothing about him except this hate him…so either Drew did a poor job here, or the AV Club has a strong undercurrent of sports hate. I think it's a little bit of both.…

Re #7:

I had never even considered before that somebody might not like the Fish License sketch, which is probably in my top ten. Every little line makes it better, like Paul Anka writing the forward to E.W. Swanton's biography of Kemal Ataturk (which Mr. Praline has handy, of course), or the cat detector van being from the…

I bet GREGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Easterbrook likes Paradise by the Dashboard Light because Meat Loaf isn't a me-first gloree boy. Only downside is he keeps writing "song over" in his notebook but the song keeps going.

Parks and Rec S3 is my favorite non-AD tv season ever (probably tied with S4, ahead of S3, and just behind S1/S2). Obviously no piece of entertainment is above reproach, and I'm often caught off guard by the reactions to things that I love and people here seem to hate (Mumford and Sons, for example), but I didn't…

I can see Dan Harmon having a thing for fat women sitting on birthday cakes.

Jethro Q. Walrustitty is such an amazing accomplishment. To pack that much silliness into such a short name is hard and awesome…

I love that Kevin Phillips Bong doesn't get even a single vote. No respect for an attempt at a moderate third party.

I've just heard, from Luton…that my aunt is ill. Possibly gastroenteritis. Gerald!
Well, if this were repeated over the whole country it would probably be very messy.

Not new, but not (yet) obsessive. I've seen what it does to you people…

This D- review was almost as fun as an F one. From now on, I'm never missing a review with a grade D or below.

Reading an argument between Snidely and Idiotking 3 weeks after it took place is like reading about the Sino-Japanese War. It happened a long time ago, and sometimes you're not even really sure who was winning and at what times, but there's a lot of carnage and you're pretty sure everyone deserves to lose.

I will never understand how the A.V. Club (at least as a stereotyped institution) loves Arrested Development and Game of Thrones but hates Mumford and Sons and The Lumineers. Not stamping your feet and singing along to Mumford is like not booing A-Rod…sure, you can avoid it, but why would you want to?

The A.V. Club

GYLBERT KING! I want The Lord of the Lonely Light to lead the Ironborn to those weird seas with skinchangers out past the Sunset Sea!
