he combs the beach with a metal detector securely tied to his leg with fish twine, dragging it behind him as he stumbles across the beach.

I will try re-watching them this weekend when I have a little more time, sometimes on a second impression I've found myself changing my mind (Ed Wood, The Critic, Monster House, The Sims 2, Airframe, Ski Free for Windows, and a fair amount of William Inge's plays)

This show without Harmon is like taking Hugh Grant and surgically removing his vocal cords, peeling the flesh off of his face with a dull potato knife run one too many times through the dishwasher due to the general sloth of its owner, stripping him of his nationality and knighthood, removing his cock with a pair of…

the first episode sucked, the second one stunk, and this one blew massive chunks

Trill, that has to be one of the most pathetic smoking guns I've ever witnessed, and I'e been around since the halcyon days of 'Mr. Showbiz.' With no offense intended towards Scrawler, who I now respect both as a man and a thinker, let me lay it out for you:

Call me a blithering hayseed all you want, but in my humble opinion The Hudsucker Proxy takes place in such a highly fictionalized, exaggerated universe that it can't make any sort of claim to authentically representing its time period. You imply that calling Dazed and Confused a period picture is some kind of bold…

You guys are either high or just plain dimwitted. The Coen Brothers don't do period pieces, they do satirical genre pastiche. It's hilarious to me that you consider The Hudsucker Proxy to be a 'period piece' Montypark, when it's an obvious homage to the movies of the 1930's not an authentic representation of the…

Sod off, clod

Son of a sow, I'll grant that you were alive during the Gulf war, but I'm guessing you were either high or a small child. Your analogy comparing the conflict to the tone of the 'show' was hideously flawed.

her tits

You still have yet to convince me. Everyone knows Walter quotes Bush, but it's such a tiny aspect of the film that referring to it as a 90's period piece really stretches the thin credibility you already had. Scrawler, it's hilarious that you consider the Gulf War analagous to the tone of the film, you obviously were…

The Good German sucked ass

The only thing that bothered me, for symmetry's sake shouldn't they have cast another comedian in the Scott Bakula role?

Really hard to swallow The Big Lebowski as a 90's period piece. Setting the film during the Gulf War just always seemed like a funny, irrelevant detail. They could have set it during the Iran Contra hearings, and I would have bought it as set in the 80's as well.

I'm a little more worried about Gabourey Sidibe

It essentially is, from what I've heard. The character is the same.

The Locke and Key pilot

Roger Avary's 'Glitterati'

I heard somewhere that Dan Harmon did a rewrite on this…specifically the Charles Xavier gag

The scene where he encounters Lohman again in the store at the end presents itself as a 'glaring' hole in your sad and ultimately pathetic thesis
