Seriously, let me join the chorus of "Holy crap! That was Jim Carey!" He was not only nearly unrecognizable, he looked actually entertaining and not irritating at all.

Seriously! I was like "wth??!" I can't believe he actually missed the point — it must be that somehow he failed to see it as all that important. Clearly, that episode is about how difficult it is for Lorelai to see her daughter embrace a world, or at least tolerate it, that she resisted and rejected. She's worried…
Jesus, that was fascinating.
"fewer faceless South American revolutionaries and more dudes in vampire costumes tossing grenades, and who knows what might have happened."
This is such a good show. Interesting how deliberately stilted some of these poses are. Man, I completely forgot where they left that character. I wonder if they're going to deal with that. Oh, yeah, I'm glad she's still going be on the show. It would be neat if they — BOOBS!!!! BEEEEWBS!!!!!!!
I love this show, but man, it is DIFFICULT to watch with kids sleeping upstairs! They've usually JUST fallen asleep before it comes on, and the dialogue is at least 70% screaming, 40% of that is not even words that are beings screamed, just "aargh!" — and at least 50% of that is children's voices!
"You may have the bird, Mr. Spade, but we certainly have you."
"Yeah, I'll try not to let that worry me."
Another great farce episode: the one where Niles sleeps with Lillith. There's something very funny (and sharply plotted and clever) about the way every time the room service guy comes to the room, there is a different pairing of people in bathrobes. First it's Lillith and Niles, then it's Lillith and Frasier, and…
Agreed. Cheers and Frasier were very different shows, and more importantly Frasier the character was pretty different on each, so it never really worked to bring the other characters over. Diane and Lillith, yes, but nobody else.
Kelly Bishop rocks my world. She's so freaking amazing on this show it kills me that she doesn't do more. (Yes, I'm aware of Bunheads)
Logan hate starts now! Otherwise there won't be enough time to get it all in….
I'm with you. I thought the first was very enjoyable — not the greatest comedy ever, but a particularly funny one. The second one actually made me angry and put me in a bad mood. It was aggressively unfunny and mean-spirited. The gay panic (and, well, actual rape and subsequent rape jokes) were so tone-deaf and…
I'm sorry, you said "Nick Offerman" and "unfunny" in the same sentence, so clearly this review isn't written in English, but in some kind of crazy moon language Esperanto that only resembles English to the untrained eye. I was therefore unable to understand the rest of it.
I'm with you, Phil, cutting away to Roz in the scene with her beau is a real dropped opportunity — the scene would have been so much better with it all played out in pantomime. Roz could have simply mouthed "YOU'RE MARRIED?!" in a way that viewers could understand, or there could have been a noticeable demonstration…
I'm calling it. "Such is the natural order" is the single greatest thing that's ever been said about "Me So Horny."
I remember now! The Onion headline was "I Don't Even Remember Writing The Tommyknockers," and then when King went public he actually admitted that he couldn't remember writing Cujo.
I always liked him as an actor, and I hope he keeps his shit together. It's impressive that he was willing to be so open in this interview — you feel for the guy.
I actually really like Caan in that. I'm glad someone trusted him to have the range for it — I saw it before I ever saw Godfather, and seeing him as Sonny blew me away. It's pretty amazing to me that he could so convincingly play the pained, meek, hesitant Sheldon and also the Testosterone in the Shape of a Man…
You are FAR from the only one . Tasha Yar left TNG for that movie, and it didn't exactly get her career going. It just earned a cult following years later.
IIRC, "Cujo" was the novel the Onion selected for its "I was so high in the 80's I don't even remember writing _________" story, years and years ago. I think it was right around the time King went public with his struggles with substance abuse.
