Yeah, that whole episode was really uncomfortable. Starting from the cold open the joke was Murray recognizing that this cast couldn't hold a candle to the originals. By the time the credits rolled it was obvious he really wasn't joking at all and the '80 cast was still yucking it up behind him thinking that was THE…

Wrong! He has a lot of insightful things to say on the topic. And his message is overtly feminist. He just doesn't look like Ryan Gosling or Chris Pratt or other celebrated (conventionally attractive) male feminists with a similar message, so he gets unfairly lambasted for his insight.

Watched it on iTunes last night - it was like 3 horror subgenres in 1 and pretty terribly acted but I enjoyed it despite all that. The first 20 minutes alone offer some legitimate scares before it devolves into camp.

I love that interview. Murray at his 70s/80s faux-schmaltzy ironic best and Letterman just lapping it up with incessant giggling. It's truly great.

I don't see Don as the "suicide type." Though I do like your theory otherwise - maybe the whole episode is Don settling into a new life in California, buys a house, starts working as a mechanic-type, then calls Sally to receive the bad news and ultimately decide if he wants freedom or fatherhood.

Love it. Who knew James Murphy was a fan of the woooo! Four Horsemen! Wooooooo!

Agreed. I loved MC's stuff leading up to this but this? This is hot, flaming over-produced garbage.

"We don't go on cuz we're ready we go on cuz it's 11:30." Lorne recycles this damn soundbite so often I like to think he uses it as a non sequitur when stuck in small talk with his door man, waiter and wife, post-coital.

The Harry Shearer WTF interview revealed as much about Lorne. Shearer was the first non Not Ready For Primetime Player hired as a performer after Belushi and Aykroyd left, and after weeks of misery he went to a Knicks game with Bill Murray and asked why the cast/writers hated him. Bill said they were put-off this new…

"It's an EPIC POEM for me to get home!" - Trying to convince Trudy to let him get an apartment in the city.

A Batman Begins-style origins story for Ghostbusters starring Channing Tatum sounds so bad. So bad….so…..bad….like really bad.

I Was There Too is quickly becoming my favorite podcast. Likeable host, great interviews and a damn catchy intro song certainly help. The episode where he interviewed the dude who was on the other end of Bill Murray's pitchfork in Caddyshack was my favorite - got a real sense of young Murray at his most bully-tastic -…

Compare the scene that song is used (I think toward the end of season 2) to one of the last scenes of the series with Paulie. In front of Satriale's - at the time of the song Tony has a full crew all getting on swell, chilling in front of the pork store, even friendly chatting with the federal agents tasked to bring…

"There's no eating in the car."

I really liked the continued use of Van Morrison's Glad Tidings over the season 5 finale. It's edited perfectly for each scene it's used in.

I'm so glad David Chase went back and hired Frank Vincent after initially passing on him while casting the first season because he didn't want The Sopranos to become Goodfellas: The TV Show.

Holy shit the casting in this movie! It's like plug-and-play: generations.

Two things that are in every biopic:

It was kind of a bummer to hear about Harry Shearer and Michael McKean not getting on with each other anymore. Though Harry's Lorne Michaels story was a refreshing change of pace from all the Lorne-fellating going on as of late.

He was in attendance, just didn't get any kind of on screen time (thank god)
