Bzzt! No, that would be Mike Krahulik. But thanks for playing.

Agree completely on both points.

"Your no great writer yourself". Hilarious, the way you pointed out typos and yet highlighted that you don't know how to use contractions. Zing! The "LOL" was a nice touch, too. I wasn't aware that anyone apart from pre-teen girls texting actually still use that. Whoops, and "your doing it for free" as well!

Wait, Walken wrote the screeplay for the remake of "Wicker Man"?

Just recalled a sketch that Chris Farley was in that he played broadly, but without the humor being because he was "fat" or "clumsy" - the Community Theater sketch where he played a character that was supposed to be murdered in a play by Jeff Daniels but refused to die. That was actually pretty funny…

If that was directed at me, absolutely 100%.

Good News, Everybody!
Excellent to hear, there were a lot of loose ends that were not tied up with the final episode… and some continuity errors that need fixing. Placing it within the earlier years is intriguing, is there some particular reference that Stamos is thinking of?
I don't know about the Beach Boys,

Ah, the anti-hipsters emerge and hilarity ensues.

I'm still pleading for Comedy Central to bring back Comics On Delivery.

What I'm seeing is more and more trolls (fuck you for your lame explanation of why you won't/can't register) swinging by to let everyone here know that it's a big fascist state and no dissenters and the usual internet troll bullshit that was happening probably Day One after Al Gore turned on the Internet.

Calling Janeane Garofalo the "worst SNL castmember ever" is probably the highest complement you could've paid her. Unintended I'm sure, but by all means go back to guffawing at Adam Sandler trick-or-treating with a pencil for arm…

But the talent that was brought in was completely wasted. You had established comedians - including a Kids in the Hall veteran who apparently did SNL because Lorne begged him - and what emerged from that time was the Fartmeister Legion of Sandler and company.
SNL had the opportunity to not be mediocre for the first

You are just getting older, pop culture was just as stupid in the past.

video game
"Defender" was a hard, hard, HARD video game to play. Dave missed his calling…
It's funny, I was always afraid "Newsradio" - which I hadn't seen in years - would be like many things you love years ago and then see again to realize they were garbage. I got the complete set recently, and even the

Farley's humor and miscellany
He always struck me as someone who could've been genuinely funny doing comedy in general, but I always got the impression that he believed the only time he could be funny was if he was focusing solely on clumsy/fat physical comedy.
And that season… sorry, but if you hire seasoned

Boy this sucks
But that G.I. Joe movie, man, it's going to be awesome.

I actually like "So I Married An Axe Murderer". Mike Myers has a number of moments acting like an actual human being - even when he's doing his "Scottish dad" schtick - and there's a host of excellent minor characters. Phil Hartman's tour guide speech is beautiful.
But yeah, "Wayne's World" and bits and pieces of

BSG and endings
Really, BSG's ending was only dissapointing because there was the ongoing implicit promise that there was, indeed, some sort of "mystery" like in Lost, but it ended up being more like the "mystery" in the X-Files; as the seasons ran on, it became more and more clear that there was no game plan, they

Gee, I Wonder What The Lesson Will Be?
Crime doesn't pay, maybe?

Actually, the most amusing part of the whole "Priory of Sion" nonsense is that poor Pierre Plantard was himself hoodwinked - the book's authors had their own agenda to push that took him completely by surprise and caused the whole house of cards to come crashing down around his ears.
