Jack not drinking…
I like that the reason the episode felt or looked different wasn't because it was live, but because Jack was not drinking. Then he takes a drink and all of a sudden it becomes the regular show again (obviously some filter and the fact it was apparently taped).

I don't like that movie. It's so boring. I don't care what happens to anybody. Except I wish that they could all die sooner. Especially Sharon Stone.

I hear you Jean-Luc Prickhard. I personally think Wild Life is at least half a great album and the other half is as dashed-off and incomplete as his debut. But that was sort of his charm back then. And Red Rose has some real great pieces too (like "Single Pigeon" and "Little Lamb Dragonfly" among others). But…

@Jean-Luc Prickhard… I don't think it's accurate to say that for every "Maybe I'm Amazed" there were "half a dozen really shitty songs" to go with it. Of course that's subjective. Still…

Also… for the record "Another Day" is not a Wings song. It was a Paul and Linda McCartney single. And I don't think it's fair to call it 'slight' as it is a pretty intelligent lyric for McCartney who tends to favor abstract or nonsensical lyrics.

The lines most cited are:

Best actor to ever play Karl Rove…
…Kurt Fuller.

backdoor Outsourced review
Pretty good episode. More fun than the first two for sure. Group dynamic coming together a little better. Still not quite 'funny ha-ha.' A little slow. And maybe going for a little too much 'heart' and not enough 'ha' so early in the run. But Diedrich's character got some decent lines.

Yeah that Apple comp looks awesome. Excited about it.

Race humor makes some people uncomfortable
Not me though. I laughed pretty hard throughout. The restrooms that said 'colored' and 'white' after the recycle boxes were moved cracked me up. I really didn't see that coming for some reason.

I'm looking forward to this
as I hate Broadway plays… but like films.

Lifestyle brand
Sadly… this is what it has come to. Lifestyle.

HIMYM can be funny. But to me more often than not it's more interested in it's own cuteness. The drama of "how will the guy who looks like the original host of Blues Clues find the mother of those awful children" is so boring. I don't care. In fact it bothers me that I know Ted can't be killed off because the

Stallone did all his own singing in Rhinestone.

Keri Russell
Not right for this part.

"generally behaving like Matthew McConaughey in a romantic comedy."
bahahahaha. Thanks for a laugh on a miserable day!

Hulk smash
Well not a smash really. Still I heard it did pretty good.

OOF. HIMYM has not taken the complex continuity of AD… it has taken the cute continuity of Scrubs and attached it to a story as convoluted as a Friends love triangle and attached it to a show that appeals to a certain age group who identifies with the characters which is exactly what the studios want. There were

It's no Rhinestone.

It was a hugely successful film. Even Cocoon 2 was.
