Hi, Burl!

I'm on the lower side of that demo, and I DVR the 6:30 news…so yes.

I knew things were not going to end well when Williams goofed around on Weekend Update. And the Giant Head of Brian Williams on the Daily Show…you can't have it both ways, man. It has to be all about the news, not all about Brian.

Finally my favorite news brother Lester is getting some love!

Garrett Morris saved that bit. And he still looked good, bless him.

That was the most dire 3+ hours of television I have ever sat through (and I watch the Oscars every year). The whole thing looked slapped together at the last minute.
They would show two seconds of classic bits, but did NOT show why these bits were funny in the first place. Maybe the Coneheads didn't age well, and…

Naw, he's gone Hollywood.

Been watching TDS since day one. I was working at a tiny radio station when we got a corp ad buy for a crazy new show with the guy from Sportscenter that made fun of the news. The dumb thing of the day was Kathy Lee Gifford's clothing line being made by kids in Cambodia. So one of the ads ended with Craig Kilborn…

I love Beck. He seemed amused by Yeezy's assitude, and that's cool.
Fucking Jay-Z beaming at Kanye's little act. Hey Hova, your wife's performance at the end was boring and indulgent.

My auto mechanic's name is Jeff Dahmer. He still gets the cannibal jokes.

Also the best description of Umphreys McGee I've ever read. Well done.
(Seriously, I can't wait to quip it to a friend who is a UM fan and won't shut up about them)

I remember thinking, "Did Billy Joel insist there had to be a steelworker's butt in the video?"

Second that. The 1973 animated release is all anyone needs. Revisionist script? Fuck that! Wasn't that the Kevin Costner version anyway?

CGI of Roger Miller singing all the original songs or GTFO.

Several years ago I was at Jazz Fest and ran across the racetrack to catch King Floyd's act. "Groove Me" had made a huge comeback thanks to a milk commercial, and that was the song I wanted most to hear. I made it to the stage just as they kicked off the song, and it was awesome. Ten minutes later, they were still…

You know what, Otis?
You're country. Straight from the Georgia woods.

No, Trier is right; sober creative comebacks are more financial than anything else. (See: Aerosmith)

So what drugs are we talking about, specifically? Pills, coke, smack, meth? You can't just say "drugs" as a catch-all, because that would mean weed as well, and weed has only contributed positively to any art.

Kendrick did "Swimming Pools" the last time he was musical guest.
After that appearance, I became obsessed with MAAD City.

I just skip to the comments and quit reading the SP reviews after PDN gave "You Have 0 Friends" a low grade and complained that Facebook was a stale subject. Phil actually wrote that since HE had been on Facebook for sooo long, like "since college", Trey and Matt missed the boat and did this episode too late. I…
