It's not rocket science. The successful ones you can describe in a single sentence (boy goes to a wizard school, girl falls in love with a vampire, kids kill each other for reality television). I tried watching this series and none of it made any sense.

95 to 2000? I thought this was generally considered one of the worst times in music. That, and terrible terrible blockbuster movies.

Bobby came a long way from his humble beginnings . . .

"It's just me and Blake Lively with go pros strapped to our foreheads!"

We've had some incredible performances in television over the years, but Gandolfini and Falco were just on a different level.

gotta love how its everyone's natural instinct in that scene just to start kicking him when he's on the ground

Chrissy might be my all time favorite character, so many great lines. He's such an accurate depiction of a certain lunkheaded, druggy NJ persona that fit many people I knew to a T (without the murder and crime obviously).

That's a good point.

I don't know, "horrible" and "reprehensible" are terms I reserve for characters like the one Robin Williams plays in Mrs. Doubtfire. Starting unnecessary drama with friends who are moving on in life without you and shooting yourself in the foot socially doesn't seem to fit the bill.

Killing off Richard Schiff in the first act of the Lost World, not one of Spielberg's brightest moments

"That's the way you do it! That's the way you debate!"

Horrible seems a little harsh. She just seemed self absorbed and flaky to me.
