Taxi is my single favorite television show of all time. There are highly talented people making some amazing TV today, but I think the nostalgia factor helps keep Taxi at the top of the heap for me. Even in this episode, which does little to stand out (and in fact might be one of the weakest half-hours they ever

I saw this movie ages ago, back before the name "Terrence Malick" meant anything to me. I loved the film, but mostly forgot about it after a while.

That's not really ironic. Buffy was often the least-interesting character on her own show.

That song was one of my first exposures to Sigur Ros (I later found out that I'd heard "Svefn-g-englar" in a movie). What an amazing exercise in pacing. I bet it was incredible live.

It annoyed me, becuase I kept thinking, "Kid, you're talking to Shaq! He's three times your height and could bench-press two of you! I don't care how you think

I agree with whoever it was above who said that "Five O'Clock World" was great, but it's tough to argue with the energy of "Cleveland Rocks." In their own way, each of the show's three theme songs was appropriate and emblematic for the period of the show it represented.

Ugh, I completely forgot about that one. You're right, a significant change and not for the better.

Oh, you mean Jordan. No wait, I mean Ellie. No wait, I mean… I guess those are the only notable things she's been in, huh?

This list could have gone on forever, but I'm surprised the Drew Carey Show didn't get mentioned.
