Wait, wasn't that ELO's job?

Wait, I watched the whole show last night and I don't think that part actually happened.

He's gotten fairly eloquent in the comics before.

Nah, most of my friends can still do a Batvoice or Joker impression when it's suited to the situation. But maybe that just means I need less obnoxious friends with less dated references.

Milk needs to be refrigerated. Chuck doesn't have a refrigerator, because of the electromagnetism and what not. I did think it was posed kind of obtusely, but I was over-analytical enough in that moment to get it.

Run th3 J3w3ls has three 3's, so it's even three-er.

Because he's fucking hilarious.

Wait, but Colombia doesn't share a border with Mexico. How'd that work?

No they're not. Copernicus' theories were controversial and considered heretical by some, but they were warmly received at the Vatican. By Galileo's time, however, the tables had turned, thanks in large part to the ascendency of geocentrist Cardinal Bellarmie, who was a bit of an anomalous theologian who adhered to a…

Louie is like super-cheap though. Cera and Kauffman are both big-ish names for television, and the premise could demand more money than "a guy lives in New York and stuff happens."

But now he has Christian Bale and Aaron Paul as ancient Hebrews, so eh.

Which Baratheons and which Targaryens? Gendri and Daenerys, maybe? But how many people actually know about Gendry, much less would be willing to acknowledge his legitimacy?

Also, UK TV production works differently and having that many episodes in a single season just doesn't happen. But yeah, those are also probably worth considering.

Basically. Although the thing is that most of his theories aren't remotely scientific and thus can't actually be falsified, so his work, while groundbreaking, isn't so much contradicted by psychology as it is completely irrelevent.

That's frustrating to me. Comparing imprisonment, torture, and death to having a dickish professor in a class you weren't required to take is disrespectful.

It's called the Transifguration, and it was Moses and Elijah. Basically, Jesus took Peter James and John to a mountain and starts glowing and shit, and those two come down from heaven and start talking to him. Accounts are found in Matthew 17:1–9, Mark 9:2-8, and Luke 9:28–36

I wonder how he got to use the Orthodox church. Seems like if you just want a cool-looking church for a set piece, you go Catholic, or maybe something protestant with lots of stained glass. So I assume he has some connection to that particular church. I'm just imagining the guy going up to his priest at coffee hour…

That's clearly an aspect of it, but he does seem like the type who would enjoy that sort of movie apart from the attractive men.

After watching the first episode, I couldn't help but feel like this show might have some potential with a lot of work. The key problem, moreso than the weakness of the gags, was that the show has a totally unlikable protagonist but doesn't take advantage of it. Compare him to Archer. Archer is a pompous oversexed…
