Interestingly she seems to consider this a step down from KA1, whereas Dowd finds it a step up, even though Dowd has fewer good things to say about it (otoh he has fewer words in which to say them).

I have a VHS called "The Best Of What's Left Of Not Only But Also". Some pretty crazy stuff (including an attempt at a live-action puppetoon a la Thunderbirds).

Makes sense, although I do wonder if there's a secret "No One From MadTV" rule.  (Possibly with "Fridays" crossed out and "MadTV" written in crayon.)

"Hitler Is Upset That Ray Winstone Wants To Retire"

Agreed on the second part. On the first I'd point out it's a different gig, since Dollhouse is all playing the same person, and no matter what personality she's given there's supposed to be an echo of the base personality in there that's neither obvious to the people around her nor missable by the audience. Not that…

Hey, Helena got some tail just last episode.

I find Lolita infinitely re-watchable for the Peter Sellers parts, but as I recall the first watch was less pleasant, because I was impatient for the plot to progress (and there isn't much of one).

That was the best part. And I will always believe it's an homage to Magnolia.

It can have a positive message about body types!

That is in fact the reason given. At least according to Tasha Robinson at that other website.

They had a nationwise search. Interviewed thousands of candidates. No dice.

And if so, at what point?

Have you seen the Chuck Jones Kipling cartoons from the 70s? Probably not as faithful as you're looking for but a step in that direction from the Disney. Mowgli's Brothers, Rikki-Tikki-Tavi & The White Seal.  You can get all three pretty cheap on one DVD from Amazon (along with three Cricket In Times Square cartoons).

One could say that Bigwig is the bigger hero because he could have forced the other rabbits to follow him, but makes the moral/intelligent decision to follow Hazel instead. Otoh Hazel has leadership thrust upon him and makes a go of it. All depends on your priorities / point of view.

A valuable lesson in how we should not infer causation from correlation.

You blew it up! You maniac!

They also sound like Star Trek:TOS episode titles.

Debatable, but I find PDN's joke about Yusef Lateef's name to be pretty weak. (As is the spelling, but for all I know he's copying the spelling SNL used.)
