When I was younger—about a decade ago—I took great offense to Marsh's 1001 Greatest Singles of All Time. I think I was pissed off that he did a long spiel on Planet Rock without mentioning Kraftwerk, or some other bullshit reason (in hindsight, I wasn't thinking too clearly). I decided to do an entry-by-entry

I guess the fembot found him.

Notice they were all superhero movies starring black guys.

I remember when Rosie O'Donnell was hosting a stand-up comedy show on VH-1 in 1990 and 1991; they introduced her every week as "appearing in the upcoming movie adaptation of Car 54, Where Are You!"

But when are we going to get closure for ALF?

Don't encourage him. He's clever, but not funny enough to sell worth a shit. It's best to keep his expectations low, so that he doesn't overreach; the only result will be yet another AV Club book filling the discount bin at B&N, along with the "Bald Woody Allen's Book of Bad Movies and Worse Criticism", and "Buy Our

Five seasons?!

Do you suppose Alison Brie's teeth have been corroded by a constant flow of gastric acid?

I'm now following you, so when it's cancelled, I can laugh at your despair.

She was the whitest woman alive at one point.

I can't wait for the inevitable make-it-into-a-movie rumors that arise from every cancelled comedy.

I think the reservoir of humor that Community runs on has dried out. It's time to put this horse out to pasture; it's more clever than funny by this point, and cleverness is a poor foundation for a series.

Why do you care so much about what some faceless clown rates a show? Judge it for yourself.

I'd like to think that Paul used his considerable financial resources to hire an Academi death squad to go into Nigera and track down the stolen Band on the Run tapes.

I think he was a wooden puppet of some sort; he had a radio show or something.

In Blighty it's called "Music Hall". His old man was a music hall performer. It's not simply a question of nostalgia; it was what he was raised upon. It's hard to shake that out of your DNA.

Charlie and his Orchestra.

Why bother with the hologram? Jim Caviezel isn't doing anything important these days.

I think the reason it failed is because it is the epitome of Canadian television. Often clever, and often well-written and well-acted, but ultimately stilted and soulless.
