Kingmaker, please. I've got everything they've ever done (including two-part singles), and no fucker seems to remember them ever existing. However, they remain awesome.

For Othello's next impersonation… Jesse Owens!

"Hey, where are all the white women at?"

Didn't Ellroy already cover this in the documentary "James Ellroy's Feast Of Death"? Which is brilliant by the way, and well worth tracking down if you can.

Seriously tho: Yauch is awesomeness personified, and I can only wish him the absolute best in his battle. Rock the fuck on sir…

Oh and great news, wish him all the best etc…

In fairness, Yauch has probably been as grey as a mule since "Check Your Head". I don't think the David-Byrne-by-way-of-a-gay-ant stylings in the photo up top are a help to him either.

P.S. I trust the A.V. Club have their sights set on getting Ian McShane in for a Random Roles one of these days?

The Random Roles with Udo Kier was immense, but it didn't make my week like this article has. Three whole pages to luxuriate in! And how much of it either directly on or relating back to - arguably, and I would at length - the greatest television show ever made?

Bakersfield P.D. - his double-act with Jack Hallett was one of a hundred reasons this show was way too good to be cancelled.

The 'God' episode - the one with Tom Noonan - was the most stunning half-hour of television I've seen in years. Considering the battering the Catholic church has taken in the last twelve months - not nearly enough of a battering tho, not by a long chalk - I'd say if any episode of 'Louie' was due the 'A Very Special

'Make Love The Bruce Campbell Way". Recorded like an old-timey radio play, it's fairly light, funny and has BRUCE FUCKING CAMPBELL.

The Salton Sea fucking rules.

Final Quote
Nope. Syd Barrett wrote beautiful, lyrically complex and emotionally resonant songs, sung in his own accent - fuck you, Beatles and Stones - that were light years from his contemporaries and that influenced generations of songwriters from Bowie to Damon Albarn and many stripes inbetween; including I'm sure

Wasn't theoriginal title "Watch That Man"? It's the refrain in the song that plays over the titles, a line used by Richard Wilson's character, and the title of thenovel the movie was based on.

I fucking love that movie, or at least I did (haven't seen it seen the days of VHS). It must be incredibly hard to write dialogue where two people have the same conversation but interpret it in completely different ways, and have it both ring true for both parties as well as drive the plot forward. To sustain it for a

"Bruce Willis was dead all along!"

I saw him play Hamlet - mentioned in the interview - in 1994 or thereabouts. The production wasn't the greatest, but he was bloody awesome.

It's so the software developers working late into the night can make the system talk dirty in an alluring female voice.
