I'm so excited for this. Holy shit. This is awesome.

Regardless, thank you for posting that vid. I can tell I'm going to keep coming back to that song for a long time. It's absolutely beautiful.

Wow. That was amazing. Where did you find this? Is this just some random clip you found on YouTube? Are there more vids like this?

Wait, has everybody just been hanging out in here commenting and being snarky? Why wasn't I invited? Why is VanDerWerff leaving? WHY AM I SO LONELY?!

Among the many superb headlines O'Neal has written, this might be my favorite.

Whatever you think of the finale, the part at the very end where Vincent emerges from the forrest and lies down next to Jack kills me every time.

That was a sublime episode of television. Easily my favorite episode of Louie. I'm unsure if everyone else will feel the same love for this episode, but so much of it worked and rang true. It was funny and brutally honest, and it didn't end (in both the flashback and the present) with a tidy moral for the audience to

That might have been the two best episodes of comedy I've seen all year. B+ and A-? Get the fuck out of here.

The Swanson Pyramid of Greatness. Sitcom perfection.

Some thoughts:

I can't say I watched this show regularly, but I like Pete Holmes, and at least he was trying to do something different among all the other late night talk shows. This monologue was pretty fantastic: https://www.youtube.com/wat…

Agreed. I'm bummed The Colbert Report will be gone soon, but Wilmore is a fantastic choice for the post-Daily Show slot.

Pairing Jack McBrayer and Triumph for a TV show is kind of genius. The remote they did for Conan is one of my favorites.

I need help reacting to something.

This makes my heart sad. I need The Report. I don't need another generic talk show, even with one of the funniest guys on the planet at the helm. Colbert has crafted a beautiful niche for himself, and it's truly special. Don't lure him away with money, CBS. Let an unknown comic take the reigns and give him/her the

I saw American Hustle today and I just…I don't know. It was a solid film, great performances, cool direction, but nothing particularly worthwhile stood out. Most David O. Russell films, for some reason, have this quality. They leave me feeling satisfied yet I never feel a strong desire to revisit them.

This list is shockingly good, except for the fact that Inside Llewyn Davis is nowhere to be found (save for cinematography.) If they can have up to ten nominees, why not squeeze in an extra Coen brothers film?

That P.S. had me fucking rolling. An instant classic line.

1. No Country for Old Men
2. Fargo
3. The Big Lebowski
4. Raising Arizona
5. Inside Llewyn Davis
6. Miller's Crossing
7. A Serious Man
8. O Brother, Where Art Thou?
9. Barton Fink
10. The Man Who Wasn't There
11. True Grit
12. Blood Simple
13. Burn After Reading
14. The Hudsucker Proxy
15. Intolerable Cruelty
16. The Ladykillers

Honestly, Billy On the Street is one of the most consistently hilarious shows on TV. If you're not DVR'ing it, you're missing out on some truly funny stuff.
