"Kill for Love" is pretty good, but that auto-tune on "Streets"… blech. Does not sound good, IMO.

I don't like this album much but I generally agree with Pitchfork.

@avclub-d558185058995263bcbd9fd68a9d732d:disqus How is there a trend towards less of a critical consensus? I mean, there wasn't any consensus on the level of the two I mentioned, but there were still a few records that seemed favourites among most like PJ Harvey and Bon Iver. Just because we didn't have an "instant…

You always get the perfect timing. Props.

I'm not even sure what's amazing about it… But I'm certain it's the best picture O'Neal has ever done.

Yeah I dunno what Pitchfork was on about, this is pretty boring.

Also, maybe last year didn't have a critical consesus favourite on the level of MNDTF or MPP, but commercially Adele had the most inescapable album in quite some time, amd it was met with positive reviews, too.

I really don't think you can predict if there will be a "zeitgeist album" not even four months into the year.

jeez, that's a big drug store

Supposedly there are lots of Firefly references on the show, so… Yeah, pretty much guaranteed.

People always complain about "European Son" but I just don't see it, I think it's just as good as the other songs on the album.

I hear The Avalanches are producing it, and it features Dr. Dre and D'angelo.

Yeah I was talking about the book, not the movie, which I haven't seen.

Let's see…

YES.

I totally forgot that Maggie B-plot was in this episode. That's probably one of my 5 favourite Simpsons B-stories.

wow suddenly this movie makes sense

No, because found footage usually equates to horror, whereas this was a PBS documentary. I think a found-footage ep is very possible.

I've actually been on board with Rabin for the most part about this season, but this episode got more laughs out of me than most others this season. So, I dunno. Still a lot of misses, but plenty of hits too.

But… Does it win anything but bragging rights?
