Most of what I've read about Oswalt's King of Queens experience indicates that he's grateful to the show for teaching him a lot about professional acting.

I second Genius in France, but AV Club staff knows/cares next to nothing about Zappa, so I can see why it didn't come up here. It is incredible though.

The first thing I do with a new Weird Al album is go straight to the polka medley to see what's on it. Alpocalypse's is pretty good but I like Lynwood's better.

I'm extremely disappointed that female Scruffy wasn't permanent.

This article made me think of
the old Tiger toy 2-XL, which I owned and played the shit out of.

I'm not sure Ebert's review was really all that useful. He just kind of fell into a golly-gee-whiz trance, lapsed so hard into simpler-times autopilot racism that he called sitting cross-legged "Indian style", assumed no one would be able to follow the plot machinations of a movie starring Larry the Cable Guy, and…

Brave sounds like "Mulan in Scotland"—viz., #winning

Winnie the Pooh looks incredible. At this point I'd much rather see it over Cars 2.

I was a Crystal Caves kind of kid.

Yeah, I meant looking at. Didn't think in the sense of listening first.

"Clemons was easily the most recognizable guy in the group not named Bruce Springsteen"
I'd argue that distinction goes to Max Weinberg.

Even my 3-year-old hates "Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell", and he likes everything. Naturally, I blast it in his face and yell the lyrics at him, because I love it. (Also, Wallpaper remix or GTFO.)

"Gabrielle" is the best style parody ever. I think if you played it for someone who didn't know who Ween was, they'd swear it was Thin Lizzy.

I assumed he was British. Oops. But with a name like that, I mean come on.

Too bad Goldie Hawn looks like she eats glass cereal with diarrhea milk three meals a day.

Tangled represents one of the few times, if not the only time, where Netflix's prediction for me was off by more than one full star rating (Netflix prediction 3.8; my rating 5). I was blown away by it. I could see, in time, liking it more than Toy Story 3. One thing I really liked about it was that even though the…

You'll get shit, all right, but probably not so much for your perfectly reasonable opinion as for the fact that you called it Little Nemo rather than Finding Nemo.

"Proof that you can have all the right influences and still not grasp what made them great"
Nailed it.

Yeah, as far as I've been able to tell, Zappa is one of those rare AV Club blind spots.
