Only a Charity Commission deals in absolutes.

Ooh, I didn't know they cancelled it. It was an ok game, but I think it was always hamstrung by the fact you really couldn't play along at home. I guess you could close your eyes and try to guess what the clues are going for, but that's a little complicated. I would have dismissed it immediately on gameplay, but…

So many discarded ceramic Dalmatians…

I'm just going to assume Slick Rick is who we're talking about for dressing like Snake.

Eagles' Greatest Hits was on constant rotation in our first CD player. I may have not loved them as I got older (and Boys of Summer will always be favorite Eagles-related thing, due to basically being a Tom Petty song) but their songs always sounded so cool and atmospheric and Frey's voice was a large part of that.

Now I think people would roll their eyes at an episode where they work in nine baseball players as guest voices (see the England episode for guest appearances for the sake of it) but the Simpsons of that was just untouchable. And Conan's old-timey baseball remote pictured above is one of my all-time favorite remotes,…

Same here. I am a sucker for high school shows and was in college when I found the show. I knew it was cheesy and meant for people younger than me, but some of the characters (I loved how Jay kept on amping up his evil Canadian teen act all the way to the social disease van and bracelets) and the relentless…

While The Ringmaster isn't quite bad enough to be here, Steve Austin would have been a shoe-in if his initial suggestion of a "character with a cold personality" after seeing a documentary on hit man "The Ice Man" Richard Kuklinski would have received one of the WWF-approved names they offered him: Otto Von Ruthless,…

Yup! Same here. The first Bowie song I loved when I heard it as a teenager. And even when I got tired of hearing Changes or Space Oddity, the pace and laid-back anarchy of this song kept me coming back. Love it!

Thinking about him today, I think of all the songs that hit me at various times of my life, but the word impression used in the news brief is what really sticks with me.
Bowie really was anyone you needed him to be when you see his influence on culture. An immortal shapeshifter on the Venture Bros. A mystical…

I grew up with a greatest hits of Bowie that had like nothing from Hunky Dory except Changes. After hearing it in Life Aquatic it was like discovering a whole different Bowie than the one I thought I knew. I think Suffragette City is still my favorite song of his, but Life on Mars is pretty much my second favorite.

Thomas the Tank Engine is eligible for an appearance after Ant-Man, right?

Springsteen was the soundtrack of my middle school years, often spent faking that I knew much about Nirvana or Pearl Jam. I felt like I couldn't talk to the other kids about Springsteen or Cheap Trick or Dylan because it wasn't cool, not that anything else about me was.

Are you BIZARRO freaked out?

I think this was one of the first videos I ever watched once I started using YouTube. So weird, yet compelling.

I do this dumb thing where I hear a song and try to think what kind of a movie or TV scene it would be a good backdrop for and I always think of this song as a great melancholy, yet uplifting score for either a last episode of the year/first episode of the year for a TV show. Which, given the amount of shows he's done…

Just wait for the scene where Fat Cobra falls on his face from turning a treadmill on.

My two-year-old nephew really loves Thomas and Bob the Builder…both of which raise a central question watching as an adult: Why keep so many useless workers when trying to run an efficient operation (besides toy sales)? Almost all of the engines on Thomas have a serious flaw when it comes to doing work and some are…

Yeah, that guy took it extremely serious…which I guess (that week at least) was the key to winning. It led to that sweet cameo in Mega Snake though, so it all paid off!

I thought Beg, Borrow and Deal on ESPN was a show that could have had potential to be interesting. People traveled across the country trying to accomplish sports-related tasks, but they couldn't carry any money on them. I think it was the fact that realistic scenarios happened. Marvin Lewis refused to have Gatorade…
