I haven't seen one of these "matchmaker" shows yet where the matchmaker's tactic is anything other than to tell their clients, particularly if they're female, that they need to eliminate any traces of having a unique personality, because apparently men are intimidated by smart/funny/quirky women. Why in the holy…

I think my favorite is the shot of feet running across a floor in one direction, then the other, then they stop to dance. Also, the exploding Pinto.

Aw man, I love Top Secret! "Is this the potato farm?" "Yes, I'm Albert Potato."

Yes, it is.

Man, what a depressingly cynical way of looking at moviemaking. "Eh, fuck it, we'll just throw some shit at the wall and see what sticks, and if more shit comes up later we'll just stick that on at the last minute, and it doesn't matter what nobody actor we cast in it, because anybody can do this shit." Time to…

I'm going just to see her sooner rather than later. I haven't seen her in 3 years!

They also seem to be borrowing from the IFC's extensive collection of shitty horror movies from the 90s and early 00s.

Yeah, I was just going to comment that it looks like they waited to see if Evil Dead would be a hit before tacking on a few last-minute references to it.

Y'know, I wasn't really looking forward to the interminable subway ride out to the airport to pick up my sister tonight, but now that I see what's on television…

He's only fulfilling America's insatiable need for parodies of film genres that already parody themselves, starring C-level actors and making pop culture references no one will remember two years from now.

I'm talking through a rubber chicken.

"Original Soundtracks" is an amazing album. Weird and beautiful and ahead of its time, right down to the mostly fake movie synopses in the liner notes.

There was also a disco version of the I Love Lucy theme, if I recall. It may have literally been called "Disco Lucy."

I'm honestly not sure, but that seems likely. It just comes off a little clumsy, like his opening to their cover of "Helter Skelter": "This is a song Charles Manson stole from the Beatles, we're stealin' it back." I'm not so blinded by my undying, 30 years long love of Bono to not realize that he can be a bit…

Even when I was a kid, I thought all of these medleys were atrocious. Anyone who bitches about the current state of pop music should be forced to listen to them, along with "Pac Man Fever" and "Disco Duck."

I know that Bono demanding that the audience "for the Reverend Martin Luther King, sing" is one of the all-time most embarrassing moments of concert banter, but U2 will always be my favorite band. I saw them live in 1992 and 2011, and their enthusiasm and joy for performing was absolutely breathtaking. None of that…

"The Gays Love Me!"

A lot of people are too lazy to change the channel.

I read We Killed: the Rise of Women in American Comedy, and perhaps not surprisingly she doesn't come off well in it at all. I don't mean in interviews (oddly enough, she didn't participate), but as far other comedians' opinions of her. Evidently she's one of those running hot and cold types who one day for no…

Does Roger Waters's sighing little "whew" at the beginning of "Mother" count?
