I also made an ATK* broccoli recipe on Sunday, this was one floating around Pinterest called "Crack Broccoli." (*The post said it was adapted from ATK, but I didn't investigate to confirm).
Anyway, it was the best roasted broccoli I've ever had. Head of broccoli, cut and trimmed, a bit of olive oil, some salt and just…

I just made that connection today, and am infinitely more happy because of it.

I've found myself Maroning the first few minutes of the Nerdist podcast lately, because Chris and Chloe annoy the shit out of me. It's like a couple who constantly posts on facebook about each other.
I get it. You have a cute young girlfriend. No one needs to hear your goddamn banter. Record the opening when she's not…

I used to listen to these really awesome podcasts that were radio shows from the 40s and 50s, and the sponsor ads were even more over the top and obvious. It just makes me wonder if people back then made fun of the plugs the way we do now.

As if that line weren't awesome enough, according to Nick Kroll's twitter, John Mulaney improvised it!

This episode was such utter bullshit. Not only for all the very valid arguments mentioned in the review, but what the fuck was up with the audio? During the regular season, you could always tell when they had Padma doing overdubs (mostly during quickfires), because Padma would be speaking, but you'd just be looking at…

Oof, do you remember the Golden Globes during the writer's strike?

I think Jon did great the first time, but his second appearance was marred by the writer's strike, if I remember correctly. There just wasn't enough time to put a great show together.

How dare a former Mouseketeer and member of a Lou Pearlman-organzied boy band be all about the money?!?!?

Besides the nonsensical lyrics, I don't get how all of their songs are out of his range. You'd think "make sure the singer can reach the notes" would be a prereq for at least most of the songs your band releases.

That's a fantastic suggestion!

Holy shit. I would have lost my mind.
I really wanted a band, but it just wasn't in the budget, and I would never be able to handle doing an iPod playlist.

While this song has thankfully started to disappear a bit, it's still in heavy rotation at weddings, and is on every "songs for your wedding" list. It sucks that those lists are all so terrible, because my fiance and I are actually having a hard time figuring out what song we should use to start our reception.

What's even weirder is that during one of the last choruses, the Mazel Tov is followed by an autotuned "L'Chaim." I also have been hearing this song non-stop for the past few years, but just heard that part a few months ago.

I like it quite a bit and feel like it's constantly underscored.

I work in TV, and I've never heard of anything quite like this. I've heard of early retooling, and I've heard of retooling after a major actor departs/dies, but this is pretty ridiculous.

It very quickly abandoned that premise, though.

The original concept was that it was about new parents being kept up all night by their baby.

They honestly could have come into this season thinking it was the last, and wantede to have an end plan in case it was. Not every show gets to do a Fringe/30 Rock/The Office "we know it's our last season" wrap up.

June Diane Raphael is absolutely hysterical. Her prep talk to herself before the guys arrived at the house was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. Although I feel like the bachelorettes in season 1 were larger characters than the bachelors this season, I'm still really excited to see where this goes.
