TOFOP is great. The Little Dum Dum Club is also an Australian podcast that's pretty funny.
I'm super late to this conversation, but why are people defending this as "realistic?" Nothing about the way people talk in most scripted shows is realistic - if you watch documentaries, or take a step back in real life, conversations are fragmented, overlapping, and hard to follow.
That entire episode is fantastic. Wyatt Cenac's Shrek audition voice is terrifying.
Was that the one when Dan went into full-on angry dad mode, and shouted "Alright guys, fun time's over"?
It's really good. The episode on biscuits was fantastic - he gives a brief explanation of baking powder and baking soda, which have always been mysterious to me, and talks about the ways he simplified his biscuit recipe for Good Eats, and gives his favorite, slightly fussier version of the recipe. And it's all…
Henry Phillips needs to be in everything, all the time.
That's true. Like the native americans, nerds celebrate all parts of a show.
Man, he's looked ancient for decades.
They just animate Foghorn Leghorn over her. That would be way better anyway.
And then flip the captains. Triple-twist! Just don't think about it much.
I love that he's the meat whisperer. Everyone else talks about their dishes and their plans and strategies. Eddie says "I hope there's some meat I can cook. I'm gonna find some meat and then cook it."
Thank you.
I think they're using "blow up" the way that pretentious academics do when they try to make their work sound more important than it is. For example, a grad student might say that he is exploding your preconceived notions of the role of pastries in traditional meals, when actually he's just eating lukewarm Hot Pockets…
How's this for an ending: Walt gets arrested and goes to jail for good, all his money and possessions get taken away, Skylar and Walt Jr., now destitute, cut ties with him, and his doctor comes by to tell him that he doesn't have cancer anymore.
Sure - like "irregardless," it's in the dictionary. (Because, to be fair, that's how people use it.) But it still doesn't have a place in professional writing. Maybe in the future it will be accepted, but we're definitely not there now. Besides, it makes you sound like someone trying too hard to reach for a big word.
What's better - that, or Martin Sheen's crazy jacket flip?
Get back in the commercial. It's like a water-slide - you gotta jump back on it.
I also liked their joint reaction to Elliot's statement that none of the dogs are sexy. "Ehhhhh…"
And Gould is so wonderful in it. Disheveled, charming, weird. It's a pitch-perfect characterization. I can watch that movie over and over.
