That might actually be a pretty decent cast. Although now I can't stop picturing Tom Hulce as the nefarious Gentleman.

WHOA

She's actually working on a sequel, though. And there's a whole collection of short stories set in the same universe.

It's just the greatest.

Agreed. I can't think of anyone more perfect than these two.

Oh, ho, ho.

Thank you! I shall let you know. It's probably the one U2 album I still haven't heard because its reputation was so poor. But then there are those moments when someone says, "I don't like this thing, because it's [desolate] and [experimental] and [melancholy]," and you're like, "I have to hear that right away…"

That sounds amazing

@ObliqueStrategy:disqus You mean people LIKED "Elevation"? I've always considered this the most irritating song on their best album.

I've been avoiding that one for years, but if this assessment is accurate I might need to give it a listen.

Ohh, Zooropa! This is one of their best albums.

True. Thirteen episodes is just about perfect.

Yep, that's them alright…

Speaking as a religious person, I do prefer the underhanded subtlety of a line like, "I was at Bible camp, learning how to be more judgmental!" The kind of line that sneaks up on you.

One can never be reminded too often.

That being said, though, the scene with Mr. Burns sinking the Greenpeace boat is one of the high points of this whole season. "And all this time I've been smoking harmless tobacco!" Pure genius, I tell you.

Whoa! Are we to assume it was not a good one?

I think that might have been an episode of "Family Guy." "Shut up! Or I'll do to you what I did to John Lennon" {cue flashback} "John… Yoko. Yoko, John."

In 2007, this quote was added to "The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations."

"Let's all go to the lobby, let's all go to the lobby, let's all go to the lobby - 
and buy ourselves some snacks!"
