Sony TV's in Poltergeist.

He does ping as a creepy closet case.

It makes me happy to see that the ice cream machine remains all banged up after they used it to stop the mechanical shark. 

Shoulda had everyone realize how screwed Jimmy Pesto was by the huge tax hit he'd be taking on the minivan, and how lucky the Belchers were not to win something they couldn't have afforded.

…poodles _are_ hunting dogs…

I feel so queasy with myself for being so intensely sexually attracted to him.  I mean, he's technically retarded, right?

They say, "Thomas Edison,
he's the man to get-us-in-

And that man is me!

That the Belchers seem like an authentically happy, loving family is one of the things that makes this show really great.
I really loved that in the Christmas episode the kids were actually eager to give up getting presents so that they could buy the mannequin for the weird window display designer—best kids ever.

Up 'til now I assumed they were being deliberately non-specific about the geographical location, creating a deliberate mishmash of details from eastern and western resort towns.  Overall, the town's setup seemed very east-coast, but the architecture of the town is very northern-California, like Santa Cruz or…

Jack Benny, Bette Davis and Daffy Duck.

Just. Love. Bebe. So. Fucking. Much.

But Mahoney was always the best.  Completely in the background for long stretches of other characters' dialogue, totally stealing the scene with his silent reactions to whatever he was witnessing.

Bob Dylan, I also do that when the menu items have names that are too cutesy and contrived to be spoken aloud.  I can't bear to have to tell the wait staff that I'll have the "Billy's Wild Ragin' Cajun Tequila Gator Burger."  I just kind of point and say, "I'll have that with cheese."

Jim Carrey is so frustrating and disappointing most of the time because he has such enormous talent, charisma and potential, but he demands a director who will reign in his worst excesses and give him focus.  I see him in things like The Grinch Who Stole Christmas and imagine the director standing back, shouting "Okay…
