Jerry finding out he's adopted, followed by Mark's "…Oh no…Oh Jerry, I am so sorry." is still one of my all-time favorite Parks moments.

"He was this genius mystery DJ…"

They won't find it, not because they're fictional, but because the AV Club doesn't show up on AltaVista.

Christopher Walken as R2D2 made me laugh as hard as anything I've ever seen.

I thought it was weird just because every other people on the commercial was an athlete, and then…Kevin.

The moment when the guy dressed in a Snapple bottle costume calmly walks out of the elevator and across the screen was the moment I fell in love with this show. I don't know what it was about that, but it was just the perfect piece of visual humor for me.

It's not even the most laughably generic title for a Mark Wahlberg movie. The man was in a movie titled "Shooter".

Please tell me that the "alien consciousness" possessing the family in Dark Skies takes bodily form and is played by Paul Bettany. The whole world has been on pins and needles for the conclusion of the Stewart/Bettany weirdly religious sci-fi trilogy.

I've been arguing for it in the "Best of the Year" thread, but yeah, it's that good. You've just got to be ok with the idea that it's a different show than it was in the first 2 seasons.
