Hall is great, he's the only one though that is (exception being Lithgow that season). When did you watch the first season last? I remember how uncomfortable and dark it made me feel. People forget that and the fact that you use "darkly comic melodrama" to describe it now just shows how far it's fallen. This being all…

It got slightly better before worse hence "one of."

Why? Because he's in one of the shittiest seasons of television ever?

Well, hey! That was kind of boring. I like Gethard though, so, yay?

"Nice LA Noire burn, O'Neal."

For real. I saw it again yesterday and loved it just as much. Even though on the first time you know what happens in the beginning 15 minutes, I still felt dread the whole second time I watched it. That final shot, when the music swells, it just makes me feel like I'm going to explode.

Keep at it. We all felt that way. It'll click in a few more episodes.

I'm with you. It wasn't my favorite movie of the year, but Meloncholia has stuck with me since I saw it a month ago. Just…sticks.

Thank you. Exactly this. It was poor writing: back and forth between connecting ideas, random references (why bring up Moffat?), and ultimately nothing we (as staunch LOST fanatics) haven't heard before.

Please tell me you're kidding, Renaton.

Thanks, guys. Ahhh…truly the most wonderful time of year.

Hey, it's almost that time of year again. Should we go back and read the pants-shitting stories? Can never remember the article.

He just did warm-up at the Todd Barry special taping. He did appropriately well.

Phil's great, but Luke is even wearing thin. The writers know what we want from him now and it comes off as pandering now. I know he's a precocious boy but the stuff he says sounds more and more like a 40 year old man trying to sound like a precocious boy.

Who?

Gloss Drop was completely glossed over. So great.

What mom is bringing her kids to a movie like that?

My girlfriend at the time stood in line at Mercury Lounge that one morning for 3 hours. She got us pit tickets. What a lady.

She is pretty, yes.
