My mom is gonna love this show.  'Nuff said.

Poor Ryan Reynolds.  Hollywood is trying so hard to make a Major Motion Picture Star© out of him, and he just doesn't have the chops for it.

I haven't seen the movie, but if it's half as awesome as that photo, it's the very essence of awesomeness.

I figured someone would mention "Spirit in the Sky" eventually.  That would be my choice.  Also The Byrds's version of "Jesus Is Just Alright."  Too bad I won't be around for the reaction.

Whenever I start watching a show, A.V. Club stops reviewing it.  (c.f., Call the Midwife; Vegas.)  You fans of Girls should be grateful I don't have HBO.

I was a huge fan of the show, to the extent that I can still remember minute details and snippets of dialogue I experienced once almost 30 years ago.  At its best it was as moving—or as funny—as any copy show ever has been.  At its worst it was pretentious and yet still original and entertaining.  By contrast, I can't

I hated that they didn't do more with the Robert California storyline.  That character was a lot closer to the horrible bosses I've had than Michael Scott was.  So the comic potential was there (well, it's comic when it's not your boss).  Plus James Spader was really pretty good.  But the writers never really figured

Me too.  Michael Scott crossed a line for me with that episode.  He was always clueless about how his actions affected others, but only a thoroughly reprehensible human being would toy with kids' dreams and expectations like that, even if it was unintentional.  I had a hard time finding anything he did funny after

My grandmother took me to see Viva Las Vegas when I was seven.  Ann-Margret jump-started me into puberty.  To this day, no matter what she's in, I have to watch it.

You pretty well summed up my impression.  Even the sound was kind of muddled, to the point where I thought everyone needed subtitles.  There was enough good about it to keep me watching for a while, but I hope it gets better.

I caught this last summer when a local museum had a 60s cult film series.  This review sums it up pretty well.  Very strange movie, but enjoyable.

That's essentially what they did with the kids in the BBC sitcom Outnumbered.  These commercials remind me of that show.

Someday, somewhere, someone will make a really good movie around the concept of "a feline Amelie."

I've never watched this show.  It's only 30 minutes?  It took me longer than that to read this review.

With this and the other Iron and Wine songs I've heard up to now, all I can say is, I owe Jack Johnson an apology.  I used to think Johnson was the epitome of mellow.  But Iron and Wine makes Jack Johnson sound like Ted Nugent.

You guys stopped reviewing Call the Midwife for THIS?!
