@avclub-78c86aa171e1ab86948a7e10c471fc63:disqus , that is why I think the whole movie sucked. M. Night puts so much weight on his endings that if they fail, the whole movie fails retroactively.

And at some point, Signs.

Is Mike Barnicle the joke-stealer you're not mentioning?

Uh, @TaumpyTearrs:disqus , it's pronounced "Casey Willllllllson" :

I remember it as HBO's attempt to cross the boundary-pushing comedy of Mr. Show with the "teenage boys love bewbs" appeal of Real Sex. And failing entirely on both fronts.

Happy Masturbate!
