I am such a nerd for this movie, and I always thought that an awesome addition to the soundtrack would have been R.E.M.'s "Get Up" from Green: It was 80s-tastic like the rest of the music, it had been released before the movie's timeframe, and its lyrics dealt with dreams and reality. A perfect choice.

Given that this is one of the only TV series I'm extensively familiar with, I figured I'd have a lot of nitpicking to do with this article. But I don't. This is an amazing, exhaustively comprehensive piece that pretty much covers every angle of why AT is so great. I might not have picked these same 10 eps, but their…

I'll take some of the heat, too: I remember being in that one Princess Bride thread and admitting that I really didn't like the movie, but I definitely wasn't being an overly-analytical, snooty asshole about it so I doubt you're thinking of me. I didn't ramble about Kubrick either.

I was just wondering about this feature this morning. It's quickly becoming one of my favorites and I was worried, since I hadn't seen it in a while.

I've decided, quite arbitrarily, that this is my favorite MPFC episode, if only because of the all-time-great stretch of sketches at the end.

It's one of my all-time favorite Python sketches.

I believe that was the first Futurama episode I saw, and that was the first gag that stuck with me. I love that ep to this day.

Agreed. That episode is the most nuanced and thoughtful examination of religion I've ever seen in any entertainment.

Agreed. And the relative shoddiness of the fourth series just makes surprise standout Michael Ellis that much better.

I agree with that statement, although I find that the premises are rote repeats of ideas Python had done better, and they come far too infrequently. Also the narrative is a bit slow and dreary for my taste. I think the Michael Ellis episode does that same structure infinitely better; in fact, with its mysterious…

Yeah, I think the entire Scott episode is gold, if a bit different in its pacing than Python normally is. If Zack thinks this one is tedious, I can't wait to hear what he has to say about The Cycling Tour episode.

I, for one, will keep reading, no matter how bloated and tedious the show gets. It could just be the always-fresh anthology concept, but I'll give most of the credit to you and Zack for always keeping things interesting and insightful.

This news is weird, because I distinctly remember having heard RH in a Chipotle before. It may have been a cover, though.

Well, once again, we have two perfect Python episodes. I don't really have anything to add other than that. It's hard to find new insight in such a storied, flawless season of TV.

The ending of the Tesla video (and really, the whole damn thing) easily made me laugh the longest, loudest and hardest I ever have in my life. Honestly, I was probably in danger of losing consciousness. Pure genius.

Well, this series is definitely going to get all A's from me. Probably the finest season of televised comedy ever (with the possible exception of some golden-age Simpsons).

Spoilers:

I think it's a darkly ironic comment on the season, since the family was starting to out-and-out loathe each other and grow apart more. But then at the end, events suggest that they're being pulled together again against their will.

@avclub-c1fe85b855c6d045b827f74a1e2c3fd7:disqus I totally understand your reasoning. I certainly liked Colony Collapse, but found it a bit lacking because of those pacing/dragging issues. Also, parts of it were almost too desolate and pathetic to be really funny. However, I loved A New Attitude, which is in almost the…
