… and their annoying opening act (played by Andy Kindler.) I liked that one too ("Road Warriors"). I especially liked Toby Huss as the sound guy, because I've worked for traveling theater companies and have met guys exactly like that. Also, I can't get the image of two women peeing behind a club and then slipping and

I'm going to miss You're the Worst. Especially Lindsay.

They've integrated the songs a little better as well. "Weed Card" was well used last week, for instance.

Six words to describe what Hader's show will be: Game shows, game shows, game shows.

Aykroyd and Martin doing the Festrunk Brothers last Christmas was one of the saddest things I've ever seen. It was mitigated only slightly by the fact they weren't doing it for the money.

To be honest, Fey is not the greatest actress in the world. She created a great comic character based on herself, and she did wonderful things with it, but I never got the sense she had the chops to truly escape from her Liz Lemon comfort zone. But I don't blame her for taking the checks when offered. The money's

Why aren't you guys covering Garfunkel and Oates? You did a TV Review, but stopped there. It seems like a show that's right in the AV Club's wheelhouse. They've had a fairly good first season so far, I think.

"Give a broad a gun and a badge? It's unlady-like, damnit!"

"The Mayor's gonna chew my ass out about this!!"

"I want it done BY THE BOOK!!!"

I'm sorry, but nothing will ever top Messing's portrayal of sexy but tough Navy Lieutenant Penelope Carpenter next to Tom Arnold's McHale in the powerful McHale's Navy (1997). She even fires a bazooka!

"Think about it. We can do drugs and go to weird Puerto Rican dance halls and take so much New York dick that our pussies will start talking like [Old timey New York accent] 'Oh! Another one! Fuggetaboutit!' [drops accent] But they won't forget about it, Gretch, because we're just that memorable."
"How much blow have

I love Grizz and Dotcom, but they took a little time to come into their own. Grizz as the gentle giant with a sweet bond to Liz, and Dotcom as the "persecuted intellectual":

All your burgers are belong to us.

Bamboo charcoal and squid ink in a burger? That's The Craziest Fucking Thing I've Ever Heard. At least since this:
