The show has painted itself into a corner after six seasons of comic depravity…When a show has already dealt with incest, pedophilia, necrophilia, cannibalism, retardation, abortion, underage drinking, homeless sex and crack, there's not much else they can do to be shocking. This episode, despite the molestation and…

A pretty good episode with one laugh out loud moment (Frank's dressing room necrophilia talk). One thing missing from the last couple of seasons of Sunny is cartoonish sight gags (although Frank's corpse makeup was a nice touch), and this one, like so many season 6 episodes, felt somehow not over-the-top enough, but…

I haven't watched the show in a month or so. Any good MLP fanservice I might be missing?

Bruce is hard to understand sometimes. He has kind of a mush mouth voice: http://www.youtube.com/watc… Must've went over middle America's heads.

I predict that Walt's salvation may hinge on a falling out between Gus and Mike - I mean, Mike is an enforcer who kills other criminals, but I say he draws the line at killing someone's entire family. I say his conscience gets the better of him and he turns on Gus.

Focus group rock…*sigh*

I never liked that song too, but it does resound with the whole "people who go to bars or frat parties on weekends" audience (i.e. pretty much everyone), and thus had mass appeal despite its simplistic melody and awkward lyrics ("Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end" is particularly…

Faggy? Yeah, that's classy.

Limp Bizkit in particular wrote watered-down mid-tempo rock songs and did stuff like that George Michael cover to expand their radio airplay. Korn, who were pretty weird when they started out (they had bagpipes in their songs for goddsakes), started writing simpler, hook-oriented songs that were ripe for radio airplay…

Joke's on you, the whole album is worth it. That was a strange choice for a hit, especially for dumbed-down 2Ks pop radio.

I give it a chance at the beginning of every season to see if anything changes. Occasionally I get a surprise - season 16 started off with two pretty good episodes (the Playdude mansion episode and the one where Nelson meets his estranged father) before falling back into the usual mediocrity. Moneybart from last…

Violence, arbitrary humor and Naked Gun-esque sight gags that seem out of place in a Simpsons episode…C.

When I first heard "Young Folks" by Peter, Bjorn and John, I thought it was a song only I could love, with its weird, dubby production and male/female tandem vocals - and the whistling, oh my god, the whistling! And yet somehow it ended up on the Grey's Anatomy soundtrack and got regular airplay on the local bro rock…

White frat dudes singing party lyrics over grunge-lite arrangements in a faux Southern drawl. Shenanigans indeed.

Yeah, that one did come out of nowhere. Felt like a lost hit from the 80s (in a good way).

Knuckled-headed white kids like to see other knuckled-headed white dudes perform songs with knuckle-headed, angsty lyrics? That's my unified field theory of why bro rock is popular.

Pearl Jam's songs can be pretty infectious - their best choruses are inescapable, and their look fit right in with the whole marketing of the Pacific Northwest going on at the time. Their popularity doesn't seem all that inexplicable to me.

I liked this one a lot. There were a lot of tried and true ideas (PCP hijinks, homeless sex, Dee getting badly injured), but presented pretty well, and every time it almost descended into cliches, there was a nice touch that redeemed it all. I liked the fact that Dennis and Dee's PCP horror story, which on a lesser…

As much as I despise Charlie Sheen for being a coked-up sociopath, I have to admit that much of the material killed. My favorite two lines were "You were great in Platoon. You know, your marriage to Denise Richards was a lot like Vietnam, in that she was always afraid of being killed by Charlie." and (from William…

Which one is the episode where Jack Klugman plays a washed up something or other who has some sort near death experience and gets a new lease on life? Aw, that's pretty much every episode.
