Speaking of, last I heard there was some good headway being made on a relaunch. I think the guys hit a snag on finding all the clips, though.

It was the '70s. Every goddamn year was an awesome year for movies.

And how does he type with boxing gloves on?

I dunno, Little Mac has some sage advice in his corner. "Dodge his punch, then counter-punch!" for instance.

I never heard a real explanation. My guess is that the 16 and Pregnant demographic didn't have much use for satire.

Man, I miss the new Beavis and Butt-head.

I used to work for a guy who claimed he was in GWAR before they got famous. I dismissed it as a tall tale, but he recently popped into my head and the internet quickly confirmed his story. So that's the coolest thing I can say about any former boss I've had.

Hell, being a gainfully employed reporter is pretty weird these days.

A couple of Halloweens ago I saw a live band cover the Suspiria and Dawn of the Dead scores. That was amazing enough. This looks even amazinger, but no Minneapolis date. Bah.

He cut Jerry Seinfeld's brakes!

"What's a philistine?"
"Well, it's just a real dirty person…"

True. But nothing is supposed to be creepy the way Cheshire Telly is creepy.

Seems as good an excuse as any to link to Telly Savalas dressed as a giant cat, musically encouraging a little girl to abandon hope. http://www.youtube.com/watc…

Yeah, of all the current cast members Pedrad seems the most capable of maintaining the straight-faced, well-spoken news anchor persona. I know they haven't really put much stock in that since the Kevin Nealon era – maybe Tina Fey – but I'd like to see them get back to at least trying to simulate what they're…

Chris Elliott's been part of a number of extremely successful shows and movies, although you could argue he wasn't exactly a vital cog in any of them. Off the top of my head, there's There's Something About Mary, Groundhog Day, Everybody Loves Raymond, Late Night with David Letterman…

Keith Phipps made an excellent point on Twitter a while back that SNL is essential when you're in early high school and then again after you have a kid, for essentially the same reasons. That's certainly been my experience, at least.

Tim Robinson strikes me as a guy who'll find the right vehicle five years or so down the road and become a big cult comedy favorite. Then everybody will vaguely remember that one year when he was sort of on SNL and comment about how weird that was, and his recontextualized sketches from last season will become minor…
