Definitive proof that McGill is a class act just arrived in my mailbox:

Actually, he's in Clint Eastwood's new movie, which hits theaters in September. Consider me officially on the case to get Mr. Lauter on the phone.

I'm so disappointed. I was really hoping that it was actually JMS. But I dropped him a line on Twitter and, alas, although he admitted of the AV Club that "I sneak around that way a lot," he said, "No, that's not me, that's an impersonator. One of the drags of any sort of notoriety: frauds and psychos." (He also…

I so rarely say this, which is probably best, but as a TV critic who enjoys humor at the expense of quickly-cancelled shows, I'm pulling it out for this one:

I think we're waiting for him to hit an even 100 films and 100 TV series…which he's juuuuuuust about to do. (Per IMDb, he's at 95 and 99, respectively.)

I'm thrilled for her. Totally deserved…and given the split votes between the two Community stars, who's to say she couldn't pull out a surprise win?

In @avclub-d324a0cc02881779dcda44a675fdcaaa:disqus's defense, it really isn't that hard to elicit responses from me. I spent half a decade doing interviews for a site where the readers almost never reacted in any capacity whatsoever, so I'm still a little bit in shock to get feedback at all…and if responding to it…

Yeah, more or less. That, or they might suddenly springboard from one topic straight into another one ("Yeah, that was okay, but what I really remember is that I left there and went straight into this other film"), and there's just no easy way to get back to what you were talking about originally, so you just cut your…

It probably doesn't hurt that it comes shining through that I'm a big honking pop-culture geek who, no matter how long I do this, will always be entertained by an actor offering me stories about their career that I'd never know otherwise. But if I had to take a stab in the dark as to why these actors seem to take to…

Would that I could get Wilford Brimley for Random Roles…

I will say that both Timecop and Rosewood were on my list, but as it was, we talked for twice as long as scheduled as it was, and he finally got a call to the set and had to bail. Otherwise, I know full well he would've been glad to keep talking, as you can probably tell from that very last paragraph of the…
