Stop trying to confuse me with your dry British sarcasm! I've gone to university with British people, and they called professors "Professor," and it was ADORABLE I TELL YOU

He's right, Girl Scout cookies are bullshit. And those pictures of food are nasty.

yeah, and the British call people "Professor" all the time, and we don't complain about it. We think it's cute!

which sounds way hotter, btw

So, the Pink Ranger was a girl, the Black Ranger was a black dude, and the Yellow Ranger was Asian. And the Red and Blue rangers were white guys. That's fucked up, right?

You just think that because Columbo skipped all the kissing scenes

Princess Bride, y'all

It's short seasons, and it's an easy watch when you just want something funny and lite. I'd say just start watching season 2, but then you'd just be skipping like a six-episode opening season…you can't really go wrong.

this is an april fools thing, right?

yeah, you can't have kids in your show and have it not progress in more-or-less realtime

I'd like to see a source for the assertion that the human brain can only communicate at 10 bits per second…that would make it virtually impossible to identify a loved one by looking at their face, or walk

"I DON'T LIKE TENNIS!" — Cee Lo Green, the Thursday Night Football theme song

Was that the 'Original 7ven' Time lineup? I spotted Jerome, Jellybean, and Monte, but I didn't get a good look at anyone else. I know Morris has been touring with Jellybean, Monte, and four replacements, so just Jerome being there is interesting, but does anyone know if that was the real deal?

The Yacht Rock guys are going to be crushed

Fun fact: two years after Nice Dreams, Stroker Ace also contains a scene in which the main character breaks the fourth wall while contemplating whether to rape an unconscious woman.

Nah, I think the idea was that cops were dropping like flies in Old Detroit, so they were having to transfer in new blood. (After all, they're spread thin enough that it's impossible to get backup.) Bob Morton needs a dead cop for his plans, but it's pretty clear that nobody needs to do anything special to make that

You're focusing on the violence, but RoboCop is wall-to-wall satire of capitalism and corporations.
* When Murphy is being turned into RoboCop, there's some debate about whether they should amputate his functioning arm. They decide on 'full body prosthesis', reasoning that he signed away all rights to his body to OCP

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen
