That explains it.

Since I don't even own a television….just kidding, but I didn't watch show.  According to this Wiki they didn't sing the first season theme:

"Content blocked by Universal"  because the last thing you want is a commercial for your product disseminated on the internets.

Yes Amelie, guys find absolutely nothing sexy about three sisters in lingerie.

I guess but it seems to me the editors of Rolling Stone saw themselves, whether it was true or not, as arbiters of taste as opposed to strictly by the charts magazines like Billboard.  They were champions of lots of sixties and seventies art rock obscurities like The Bonzo Dog Band.
(btw, You do know that "In the…

I'm not really dissing J Geils but if you went by the ratings in this book they would be the equivalent of The Stones or The Beatles.  I'm also not comparing them to Big Star.  I just found it fascinating, and relevant to this article, that a band I love and that's seen as such a seminal influence today was utterly…

I used to have beat up copy of the Rolling Stone Record Guide published in 1982 that I found in used bookstore.  I seem to remember that every album by Jann Wenner's personal favorite The J. Geils Band got 4 or 5 stars.  Out of the hundreds of groups reviewed I would say that over half are completely forgotten today. …

@avclub-ac0cc045737916963285e58df2b820fd:disqus  Television definitely isn't his medium but I couldn't disagree more concerning Taibbi's writing.  His take downs of targets like Goldman Sachs and the "bubble" economy or the robo-signing epidemic have been revelatory and his palpable contempt for his targets is funny…

Well he's no heart-on-your sleeve child advocate like Doug Ross but anyone who would volunteer to work in an African aid camp is OK in my book.

No, I don't have access to your Facebook page.

There's nothing fictional about her.  See what you miss when you skip the first 10 minutes?

Q: Who are the fastest readers in the world?
 A   New Yorkers. They go through 110 stories in 5 seconds

@whataworkout:disqus You're not wrong.  It's just that this guy has been one my favorites since I first saw him in the early nineties.  I think true fans like me and Dave just have a little trouble with all the newcomers who are immune to his schtick. To each his own.

I hear you, but the Hackneytron 5000 has deemed this meme: overplayed.

That could never happen, just ask Phil Hartman.

Testify.   Every other commenter on the internets referring to Maron bitches about the first ten minutes of his show.  If you don't like him don't listen.  There are plenty of other venues for celebrity interviews.

Acid spewing alien infestation?   Use the whole house bug bomb in with the cleaning products, halfway down aisle one, bottom left. You'll want the heavy duty chemical gloves. Try the the tile section, aisle seven. Safety galsses are in tools and you're going to need to rent at least a 200psi power washer.

I stand corrected.

This was one of the worst goddamned spoiler trailers of all time.  It looks like every plot twist and mystery has been given away.  So the space archeologists discover that the ruins are a trap to infect other civilizations with facehuggers.  Will they all sacrifice themselves and destroy the egg ship headed for earth…

Something tells me that if Luck had been even a minor hit there is no way it would have canceled.  They renewed it immediately and then it's ratings fell below those of a 2 AM Extenze infomercial.  They were saddled with an expensive prestige show nobody wanted to watch and saw this as a way out of their commitment.
