I assume that means no Schneider rape…

RE NINA:

Broken Down
For the summer beach-watch edition of DVD Purgatory, please, please review "Spring Breakdown," because it's supposed to be terrible, but there's funny peoples in it. Also, I heard there might Schneider rape.

Standard
This is what the Office does best. It surprises, it makes you laugh, and it makes you care about the ups and downs of these people. This episode did more than few things that are kind of amazing, one of which is taking somewhat standard, broader sitcom stuff (Michael crawling on the floor, Michael's "who's

I was laughing that he got a talking head. It doesn't seem likely Minor would see doing one of those as very productive, and it's shortness fit in well with the character.

Josh Modell
You sir, never did nothin' for m-hey is that an Adventureland promotional clip! Thanks Mr. Modell!

Palsy, more to the right, Rickets back a few
Besides the stuff mentioned above, most notably Arrested Development, I could probably say the entirety of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, but specifically his 1864 Baseball remote. This is probably the fourth time I've linked to this in the comments, but it's truly one of

Good News/Bad News
+ Magnet is going to change the subtitles back to the theatrical on all of the DVDs they produce of the film from here on in.

…Obviously
I'd also add the Ricky Gervais penned "Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife," which is one of the handful of new episodes I've seen in the past five years or so and the only one besides the Sundance one that I thought compared to the classics.

Fey's in the WGA (It sorta rhymes, not Busta Rhymes, boy is he a character!)
This episode was written by Tina Fey and it's not surprising all the character dynamics were so well perceived and written, especially Liz's priorities when dating and her lack of self-esteem/honesty in and about her loooks, power as a

Yes but if there's one thing Liz can't stand it's a perceived injustice being rewarded, as established in the Pilot when she bought all the hot dogs at the street vendor for the people who stayed in the original line that she was in. I think his adamant misuse of "ironic" is exactly the kind of thing she wouldn't be

Cut to black
This is the first time the show has genuienly shocked me since "Casino Night" back at the end of Season 2. Being a fan of the british show, I knew at some point Jim would have to tell Pam he loved her, etc., but given how much the show had built on the tension between the two and the proposed longevity of

I'd also add that the "feeling" often comes more with older albums that I hadn't heard than with ones. The bigger music moments in my life are almost always things like the first time I heard "Kind of Blue" or "Highway '61 Revisited," things that are entrees into genre's or legendary musicians, and especially with

By the blankful
I think the last album I actually got excited about was Spoon's "Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga." While Spoon has always been excellent, for some reason as soon as "Don't Make Me a Target" started, it seemed like they'd caught a feeling that was very contemporary but not dispoably current. The rest of the album is

I don't think that holds any salt because when did you see Tina Fey do sketches? Or now Seth Meyers? Although they were both head writers when they were on Update so that might actually make sense.

Atoning for the other comments. (Get it?)
I enjoy her work as a screen actress, particularly her collaborations with director Joe Wright. Wonderful interview!

"Why'd they take Norm McDonald away?/Because he made too many jokes about OJ/Was Lorne Michaels overruled?/Now don't be fooled, he and Marion Barry went to the same highschool"

Lost
I hope Bell gets more leading work because besides the great feats of daring (tm) in Death Proof, I thought she was engaging and interesting on screen for the first half hour of her section of the film, which afterall is just talking, so I'd enjoy seeing her in non-action roles aswell.

Well if you were registered you hipster dou-oh i see what you did there-then you'd realize that if you click on your name then it lists all your posts in a very neat orderly fashion.

I'd go for the Yankees, they're a hell of team and they got a hell of a bull pen, not to mention their QB won the Heisman and their goalie's defence off the fuckin' chains!
