I love the comment about "guitar players who make o faces," when the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame doesn't even nominate most of "those" kind of bands. There are only two metal bands (Black Sabbath,Metallica) and virtually nothing resembling hard rock. I mean how is Deep Purple not actually in there yet?

I wonder how Dean Norris feels about this?

Robert Englund's comment was appropriately poignant: "It's a sad day on Elm Street, everywhere…"

They are both pretty awesome.

It should have been called Frankencop.

Calvin and Hobbes may be the most thoughtful comic strip ever made and it's loss is still keenly felt decades on. Peanuts is the only real contender it has. There's something about the strip that transcends nostalgia and reaches for the realm of the existential. We've never really quite seen another quite like it.

Why would Putin spy on Pantera?

Something and The Moody Blues "Nights in White Satin" are tied for my picks for greatest love song.

Adding that and "Hey Jude" is likely considered a sin by most major religions.

They have been especially clever and funny. I feel that this season will be underrated on a variety of levels and that certainly being one of them.

I did the same thing! It was so (hilariously) unexpected and yes, I had to keep turning off these ghostly subtitles which were haunting my screen and I assume, tonight, my dreams…

This was a fantastic season (series?) finale and one of the top episodes of the entire series. Besides being very funny, it managed to be also pretty poignant with Jeff's plight being pretty real for a great many, I assume. Abed's speech was also one of the most moving of the series and probably my personal favorite.

This comment has the combined energy of The Road Warrior, Robocop and The Terminator.

Has this concept ever been successful? Even the kids don't want the young-hot twenty something cast in an action film.

Am I the only one who is irrationally angry after watching this garbage?

In Rock may be my pick for album of 1970, even if the generally regarded best metal album of all time got released that very same year. Sabbath is my favorite band but that was the beginning of their journey. For me, this was Purple's crowning achievement, matched only by Machine Head, Burn and possibly, Perfect

I've never understood the criteria since popularity is obviously not relevant, let alone influence and critical acceptance. I get a shiver when I consider that someone like Chubby Checker has to ASK to be let in and is still left out.
What an infuriatingly bizarre institution!

They really aren't fair to the 60s and 70s, either. If they were fair, then we'd have Deep Purple and The Moody Blues already in.

Oh hell, even the ORIGINAL punk bands aren't all there yet! It's strange to think that both The Damned and The Buzzcocks have yet to be even nominated.

That's a depressing list. It's disturbing that these bands weren't inducted decades ago.
