The AV Club is a comedy entity now?

In that it consists of thousands of tiny incidents that come together to form the overall picture. It's the opposite of epic — very few big things happen, but an astounding collection of little things do.

I will give that a go, Weenus … thankee.

Roger, Wilco. Nathan is Floppy Black Hair, Indeterminate Ethnicity.

I hate to say it, because the rehearsal footage really made me hopeful, but I think the tap routine was a victim of the choreographer. Why evoke Fred Astaire when you could be showing how tap is relevant to the 21st century? The dancers looked like they were in a museum piece, and they didn't look happy about it.

I wondered about unison during the Mandy Moore number. It appeared that one of the jumps was staggered, but they were so close together I couldn't tell if it was meant to be that way or if it was a problem with the group's unison.

Thanks for the correction — I should have rewound to make sure.

You know why I like the pool jump, even though it was sentimental and cliched? Because it reinforced one of the themes I see in this show. The thing you're most dreading can turn out to be okay if it's shared. If you're the only person in the pool, it's humiliating. If everybody embraces the pool, it's a party.

I think it's worth recounting, but it's such a delicate tightrope to justify making him into a symbol for everything that's wrong with the war. It's more of a eulogy than a biography, but Krakauer is ambivalent about that because he wants to be honest, yet his agenda fights with that impulse.

See last week's writeup for a counterexample.

Oh my gosh, people love the Cam Show. It's appointment viewing.

The best part was how unsettlingly perfect everything was before that — the kids playing together happily, the amazing scones that turned out to be fat-free.

Thanks, man.

Oh, that was definitely me, Mike1234. That is what I like about this show. But I don't think it made this one feel fresh, that's the difference.

Again, mentioned.

Um, I mentioned them. Not as the official answer to the question, but as a contender.

I would very much like to see someone form this supergroup right away.

Like Genevieve, my hope for this show is bolstered by the fact that they cut sure-fire audience favorite Ryan. Hurrah for standards!

Shankman was quite upfront about it — love the more masculine one, hate the more feminine one.

I'm so glad they said that this week. I'm sorry they kept him, because he's all trick (amazing tricks) and no dance.
