Get him and Jeff Goldblum to play a game of one on one. Cromwell has a height advantage but Goldblum's a decade younger.

I think L.A. Confidential remains one of the more underrated classics of the 1990s. I don't think I've ever seen a better crime film, or, more specifically, one about the police. You get career performances out of most of your leads (except Pearce who'd go on to give his in Memento, though he is stellar here), a great…

Have you a valediction boyo?

Yeah, I don't get the hate either. I thought it was a fun way to end an uneven night.

I watched it Hulu. Now the fact that I can't find Archer, let alone what I'll do for football next season….

Your comment does make me wonder, when was the last network sitcom that had a regular character smoke? We know Ron does, at least occasionally, but I think the 90s featured the last of that weezing breed. It seems to have become entirely forbidden (says the guy smoking American Spirit Lights while writing) at some…

Joe, I think Todd is a great reviewer for Community, less so Parks and Recreation. He demands a level of consequence that is alien to this program. I thought this was an absolute perfect episode, and he didn't, but I don't think that makes his criticism invalid. Still, I'd actually be interested in reading his weekly…

Ron Swanson doesn't pray before meals, he thanks his meals for appearing before him.

I'm sure when Andrew Luck stops by the P&R department it'll be okay.

I was hoping DJ Bluntz was Jean Ralphio's DJing name.

Only one Democratic politician per slideshow (two if they're secretary of state).

Say what you will about LMFAO, but they are slightly easier to dance to than mournful monastic chanting (was unaware until recently that they were disliked….does not get out that often).

Ron and Ann wouldn't be terrible but I just don't see it working out on the show. I imagine they'll set him up with someone near the end of the series with a woman cut from the same rock. Ann's going to wind up with Chris due to the dictates of the plot. Still, they'd actually make a good couple for a while, although…

I agree with you that P&R's bench is much deeper than that of The Office. With the exception of Donna and Jerry, nothing against Jim O'Heir or Retta, any of the main supporting cast could easily be a lead in another show in terms of talent and looks. The supporting cast of the Office, outside the big five (sub Carrell…

That's the big problem with workplace comedies. It seems almost invariably that any attractive people between the ages of 18-40 will wind up with another one of their co-workers. At this point the only people in this office who aren't in a relationship with their co-worker will be Ron, Jerry and Donna, although I'd be…

I would pay five bucks to watch a closed circuit feed of the arguments in the AV Club office over who gets to review that show. Ten if they all start singing the theme song.

I think it might be slightly too early to judge Parks and Rec vs The Office. Right now I think you're absolutely right given that The Office has descended into the depths (I haven't seen any episode since the party at Shrute farms, so it's possible it's gotten better). Still, The Office didn't become awful in its…

I think seasons two and three are both remarkable achievements in that over the space of roughly 40 episodes there was only a single dud, and very few mediocre episodes. I'm not sure which one I'd pick as a favorite, I switch back and forth, but I'd probably prefer season two for it's development of such a fun world…

Somehow he survived his nut lynching for One in a Million. "Immigrants and faggots" (not sure if I can quote another one of the lines or if discus will censor the post) might not be the chorus but it's there.

A veteran of the Great War with a decidedly modern appreciation of the genre and subculture of rap music.
