Larry David did his best to pull that off, to be fair.

If Mad Men doesn't finish with some combination of the lines 'shut the door, have a seat' I will be disappointed.

Show was actually really good. Almost entirely tracks from the first 3 albums with a few from the new one plus Dirty Women (??? but also !!!), Snowblind and, as the biggest cocktease I've ever heard, the intro to Sabbath Bloody Sabbath in the encore before playing Paranoid instead. Ozzy is doddering but his voice is…

Na, we gave Russell Crowe back to you lot after that movie with Meg Ryan. You can keep Keith Urban too.

as per @avclub-2cd9b4c81d4c4cba8fcd2d47e1549f28:disqus , the ad is fake however The Dog Show, shown at the start of the video, was a 100% real NZ show in the 80s and 90s showing sheepdog trials.

It's sad but if you had the misfortune to live in NZ in the years following the FoC series then it's hard not to hate Rhys Darby - he's taken the Murray persona (whereas pre-FoC his role-model appeared to be the sound effects guy from Police Academy) and run it into the ground on endless ads for mobile phone…

He'd fit in well in New Zealand then.

Me too…. also it's helped me get through both breakups I've been through since the show was on the air, which is nice.

My Year of Flops is what initially brought me to The AV Club nearly 6 years ago so this is a sad, sad article to read. Best of luck with what you do next, Nathan… it's been a great ride.

I don't want them to think I was staging some kind of… dirty protest!

Ha, no, growing up in the mean streets of St Albans, Christchurch my neighbour had a Sega Mega Drive with (initially) only one game - Madden Football so I've played enough hours of that to understand the basics of football, enough to know what's going on in FNL anyway.

Oh man I finished S4 of FNL a couple of weeks ago and, I'll warn you now: your room is going to get pretty dusty/your allergies are going to start acting up like crazy by the end of the last episode.

I've not been following Super 15 this year barring checking the Crusaders scores so I just saw… Highlanders 0 - 8… 0-8??????? With that team?????? How is that possible? I assumed that Brad Thorn was physically incapable of losing!

Love it how your explanation of Chopper is the inverse of how I have to explain The Assassination of Jesse James… to people - the former is the far more famous film here in Australia. Chopper Reid is really annoying as a media personality but shit Chopper is an amazing film - Eric Bana is really wasted on Hollywood,…

It's an incredible pop song, so I'd be suprised if it didn't!

Ha no, God no! Some Hunter Valley clean skin. We thought it was going to be bad, instead it was just inoffensive which is really the best you can ask!

I think good customer service would have been to move you/the old woman to a different seat? I was lucky because the men sitting on either side of me were both asleep almost as soon as we took off!

On Friday my friend and I got 8 bottles of not bad sparkling wine for $55 and my housemate made us burgers and we listened to Get Lucky on repeat for an excessive length of time then went out to see a band but the bar was too crowded so I ended up out back smoking the entire time. Good times.

I watched Beasts on an international flight recently and started crying about 5 minutes in and couldn't stop. The flight attendant had to come and ask if I was alright. Beautiful film.

"I'VE GOT YOUR KIDS DAN!" (http://www.youtube.com/watc… ) and the repeated "Dan!" (http://www.youtube.com/watc… ) are two of the greatest things of all time.
