Jimmy Kimmel's show is consistently funny and exciting. This kind of humor is on display every night. He's also a great interviewer.

Spiderman: The Twilight Years
Sony is just going to try to make this into a new sort of Twilight series. They will put some young kid in who they think girls will love, and bam, have a huge success. But it won't work. You already can see how wrong their approach is with them wanting a "dark and gritty" Spiderman,…
Lastly, when you are trying out a new show, and trying out a entirely new experiment of prime time TV, you shouldn't have a guest on who alienates half of America, and leaves a bad taste in 25 percent more of it. It would had been like having Hillary Clinton on, with the audience applauding like mad at everything she…
Also, Dogstyle Afternoon, Nixon was hammered and hammered by David Frost who was supposed to a lightweight personality interviewer. That would never happen today, except probably by Letterman. Letterman gets some brass balls when pundits try to lie on his show, and he'd probably even hand it to an ex-President. Leno…
Yeah, I guess I wasn't clear in why I hated that moment when Rush was on Leno so fucking much. It was because Rush was hammering away with his message and Leno just laid down for it. Leno let's these people use his show like it's their own, when these shows are usually just places for politicians and pundits to go…
Narration is usually great
in the movies you remember. I have no problem with it, but I've read a few screenwriting books that say only use it if you have the talent to pull it off. They also say that about using flashbacks or dream sequences. How about if you don't have the talent to do it, you just don't write a…
Remember that Rush Limbaugh show…
that Jay Leno was on? It was like the 2nd week of the show and Limbaugh was on Leno's program and Leno pretty much nodded to everything Limbaugh said. He offered some debate, but it was steamrolled by Limbaugh and Leno just kept quiet and the Limbaugh-stacked crowd roared with…
He hates mediocrity so much that when the interviewer asks what a good comic should do he says be part of the audience. So, being part of the masses is how you rise above the rampant mediocrity in the country? "I don't say things I want to say, I say things the audience wants to hear." WTF. This guy is the…
Gallagher would seem to me a Conservative comedian…
but he's elitist, which I guess makes him not a conservative, and he's not funny, which makes him not a comedian.
BEST SHOW OF THE 00s
The Wire
Yeah, this is another one the AV Club dropped the ball on. But at least the didn't name Memento the best movie of the last decade and then completely ignore the next movie from the same director. They did that with Treme.
My only complaint is that this website's taste is different from the very website I've been reading for the last 2 years. No "Treme", the show from The Wire, the best show ever (according to AV Club) creator. What. The. Fuck.
TREME.
If Radiohead and Wavves were going to do an album together and Pitchfork didn't put it on a list of most anticipated music releases, that's like you fucking not putting Treme on this list.
@Diseny Corporate Lawyer No one pays 16 dollars for that picture. They take a photo of the preview screen with their own camera. Rollercoaster photo piracy is really killing the rollercoaster photo industry…
If Song of the South is really the bastard child of Disney, why did they tie much of the movie up with the major multi-million dollar Splash Mountain ride at Disneyland? Not a good way to keep it under wraps.
I think the twist was that Dexter survived a nuclear war but soon afterwards broke his favorite knife. And everyone was already dead.
Yeah Truck, this show keeps you hooked and for sure knows how to keep you engaged. It's also a very fun show in many ways and highly entertaining. For what it is, it's usually an 8 out of 10.
GOODLUCK DEXTER WRITERS!
When Arthur's family sees that he killed Dexter's wife, or as they know him, Kyle, won't it come out that the cop was hanging out with Arthur for weeks before Arthur was found out. The whole notion that Dexter won't be called out by Arthur's family is ridiculous and will be a huge cop-out if…
It took me a year to finally give The Hold Steady a chance because of that album cover. My buddy was raving about them, but that cover made it look like a Eric Nies fever dream.
Loved White Teeth until the last 100 pages. I think Smith has said she was forced to write the ending the way her publishers wanted her to.
