It is funny…but he took it from an episode of Family Guy, the one where they do several parodies of Stephen King stories/movies.

Hmm…that's a tough one. Most of what I've collected over the years has come from endless CDs and DVDs purchased from markets in Cambodia. The Cambodian Rocks series has some really good stuff. And nowadays, pretty much anything that was released in the 60s and 70s in Cambodia can be found on Youtube, in varying…

No, actually it's the opposite: sure, there were plenty of covers, but from what I've seen (I've been listening to this stuff for close to 30 years, and teaching about it for just about as long), the original numbers definitely outnumber the covers. They had this eerie knack of taking the inspiration and feel of a…

Re: the Junior dementia storyline: I don't think it did start that abruptly…if you look back at Season 2, and even Season 1, once in a while you see him saying somewhat bizarre stuff, seemingly out of the blue, that in retrospect seems like a precursor to his eventual dementia. Like the "never had the makings of a…

This is great…how many times have I watched this episode, and this is the first time I caught this: Father Intintola directly quotes the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil" while counseling Ralphie: "Were you there, when Jesus Christ had his moment of doubt and pain?" Nice.

The major accomplishment of tonight's episode: making Drea De Matteo look NOT hot. Amazing.

ah, the turtleneck…that piece of clothing women always want men to wear for some reason, while simultaneously many (most?) of us men never seem to want to wear it…for some reason!

Change? Change? He fucking BLINDED a man. He shouldn't be pardoned, he should be made to pay in kind…!!! If a SEAsian refugee had blinded a white fucker back then, you can bet they'd still be in jail today…

This show is SO important. Like anyone of conscience and of age (my early-to-late 20s) in the 1980s, I was as leftie as you could imagine, spending my time and energy fighting Reagan's evil empire and dreaming of a life path where I could help realize some sort of socialism that could actually work somewhere in the…

Jesse totally blew it getting maximum mileage outta that cash:

Regarding the "incident of the Somali boy"…before we conjure up too much sympathy for A.J., let's not forget that he participated in the brutalization of the poor guy…it was A.J. who threw his bicycle into the path of the oncoming car…go ahead, watch the episode again, you'll see it…

Janice, right or not about Bobby letting go of Karen, is one of the most reprehensible, vicious, self-serving and amoral characters in the entire show (and she's intended to be, of course!)…which is certainly saying something in a TV show where a majority of the leading characters are animalistic psychopaths!! A…

I love the juxtaposition at the end, especially the scene of the muscled forearms draining the pasta…we don't know at first if it's Tony or not, but as it becomes clear that it's Furio, it sets up a clear and scathing indictment of the watered-down mongrel that "Italian American" culture has become: real pasta with…

One of the most disturbing things about this episode to me is how Janice uses that vibrator on her pussy right after she takes it out of Ralphie's ass…ewwwwww!

"But I can't stop now…" If Meadow had been anyone else in the world other than Tony Soprano's daughter, Jackie would have unceremoniously raped her at that frat party when she passed out from alcohol and Ecstasy…

New discovery upon my recent annual re-viewing of the entire Sopranos catalog: not only does the lesbian tennis instructor get a nipple erection upon first meeting Adriana, but Adriana herself gets all hard and pointy when the instructor is practically molesting her on the court (just before the water heater blows)…or…

Haha…I saw Independence Day in the heart of racist brain-dead plastic human country, Arizona, with my visiting (and non-plastic) girlfriend at the time…and we saw it on fucking July 4!! So when the scene comes when he and Jeff Goldblum are in the alien ship inside the alien ship, and it "looks bleak," and one of them…

I think he already made that movie…Six Degrees of Separation. Welcome to Earf.

So in other words, he's a "method actor"…he played a pastor on TV, and went overboard and just did what many—most?—real-life "pastors" do…yechhhh
