Funniest opening scene ever.

We get it. You don't like it when someone critically comments on racism because your so above it all, oh noble ironic anti- pc fighter of the suburbs (living in his mommy's basement jacking off to his own jack assery).

No, of course not. I'm just commenting on the version of himself he plays in the movie, and wonder to what extent (if at all) it corresponds to his real life self .

Why do feel you have to choose between them in the first place? And what makes you think you have a choice anyway?

Homeland finally confirms many Middle Eastern biases about Hollywood perpetuating a Jewish 'conspiracy' in the media.

So it takes seven episodes for the show to finally get its shit together?

Best episode ever.

What a profound argument.

Actually, logic doesn't dictate anything unless your an Ayatollah of reason. I'd encourage you to study the philosophy of religion - and the history of religious arguments - before coming off as holier than thou.

On the homeless woman (the 'ghost' has appeared at least eight times now, and is apparently a specter of the club's guilt or original sin )

Knowing that Showtime wants this show on air indefinitely robs many of the scenes of their power.

I think its astonishing that Todd can somehow talk around the ideological implications of this episode and its questionable characterizations.

I've liked McBride in everything I've seen him in, and love Eastbound and Down. My 'problem' is not with his characters or his performances.

I'm aware of the difference between reality and acting. The only difference here, however, is that Ian became a Sir because of his versatility and ability to inhabit a range of roles.

I suppose the question is: which one is the act? Or if you prefer, to what extent is he acting in each 'role'?

Why are you so taken aback by my question? I'm not the one making a career out of (apparent) self loathing.

McBride clearly loves playing Kenny, but he also seems to personally dislike his own character intently.

Whose bright idea was it to have *another* plague (whatever) on the show?

You only needed to watch the opening and closing scenes.

This show hypocritically traffics in moral relativism so as to mete out absolutes in narrative terms.
