If Will Arnett had not guested on 30 Rock no one would be comparing it to AD.
Because there's no real comparison. 30 Rock is funny on its own terms in a unique way. They're not lifting anything. Get over yourselves, hipsters.

…that "Bee Movie" is a Dreamworks/Paramount film and yet NBC-Universal is pushing the crap out of it?
Hmmm.

And does anyone think it's odd…

I can't wait for the Tina Fey interview five years from now…
…when she reveals the true story behind all the product placement in the show. I mean, in the pilot episode of the show, Jack goes on about the "GE Trivection Oven," and it sounds like a joke, then they cut to A COMMERCIAL FOR THE ACTUAL GE TRIVECTION

Firstly, Tina Fey is ridiculously hot…
…and yes, it's because she's toned up even more and wearing skirts and she's got the abs thing going this season, whereas last season they were highlightin' the cleavage. But still, she doesn't overdo it with too much makeup, she still looks like a "real" woman, so she still

"Salvador was Stone's masterpiece."
Only on the A.V. Club. Yeesh.

"Thunder Road" in the musical Grease?
What's the connection here, if any? When did Grease debut on Broadway? Seems odd that their race track is nicknamed "Thunder Road," huh?

FUCK NEBRASKA.
Springsteen was depressed, grabbed an out of tune acoustic guitar and a 4 track recorder, had one moment of brilliance ("Atlantic City") and a bunch of other failed attempts at cohesiveness, and never even came close to his true masterpiece…BORN TO RUN. I first purchased Born to Run on vinyl in high

Kudos to Jake-o for writing an original screenplay.
The first thing I wondered was "what book is this based on?" Look, a Hollywood-royalty "auteur" who actually came up with his own story!! [And yeah, guys, the typo in the title is bad, "The Good Nigh," ugh.]

Keanu was stiff, everyone else was great and EXACTLY what Coppola was going for!
Everything in this film was intentional, other than perhaps Keanu doing the best he can and falling short. But his woodenness even fits the film, just as Hopkins' outrageousness, Ryder's virgin-whore-iness, and Elwes' over-the-top

IGGY POP'S "BRICK BY BRICK" ALBUM…
Some of the best guitar work by Slash EVER. Incredible album. Yes, the one with 'Candy' on it, the single with Kate Pierson, but don't judge the album by this radio-friendly single. Most of the album is Iggy being ANGRY AS FUCK and RAGING at pop music and America. Check out "Butt

***RESCUE ME…
…is currently jumping the shark. RIP, funny, edgy basic cable drama.

Here's when and how Miller will be fucked…
In about 3 years when the administration and mood of the country has changed and he tries to reinvent himself once again and give interviews saying he was WRONG about backing Bush. And asks for our forgiveness, after all, it was just comedy, right? We all just want him to

Dana Carvey live…for $135/ticket minimum?
Sorry, I'll have to pass. But I'll rent the dvd of his brilliant "The Dana Carvey Show" that was too edgy for the American public to appreciate. Didn't Apatow write for that show?

Bring Back Carvey…
I was JUST wondering what the hell happened to Dana Carvey yesterday. Comedic genius. What's he been up to?

Did Dennis Miller cash in yet?
I'm convinced that Dennis Miller's conversion to Republican Bush-supporter was just a complete "fuck it, I'm not getting any younger, I just wanna get rich even if it means completely selling out" move. A total cynical, can't fight 'em so join 'em thing. So I wonder if it worked and

MC Hammer killed younglings.
That's what I heard.

And Golem…
So awesome that you mentioned Sebastian Bach, because I was going to proffer that Skid Row's "Slave to the Grind" album is possibly the best album of the past 30 years. That's practically the Old Testament right there. And Sebastian's new band name idea "Savage Animal" was a gem that fuckwad Ted Nugent

Nope, it's me…
Always been the original Dundermiffed (but Dundermiffed1 was getting cracked, so I got wise and started logging in), it's just that I've given up trying to change you idiots and just resorted to being a comedic dick. For massive entertainment factor and "riling up" of weenie-head academic analyst types

Fela Kuti, Mos Eisley, Derek Trucks, Baobab…
I was hoping someone could make a comparison to an artist who's sold more than 500 albums. You know, one people have actually HEARD OF. Oh, and John Mayer is more of a bluesman than Robert Johnson ever was. Come up with an argument to counter that truth and I'll send you
