YOU PAY FOR THE WHOLE SEAT, BUT YOU'LL ONLY NEED THE EEEEEEEEEDGE

it was Terry Gilliam wot bought the tapes

the Beeb just had no idea what they had on their hands (they didn't care about money since they were basically a public utility). They wiped a TON of stuff that would sell for millions today - Spike Milligan's show, Dudley Moore & Peter Cook's show, etc. They were going to even wipe Flying Circus, but Terry Gilliam…

bloody 'ell, I'm bad at html

I'm partial to Oi, the Vicar's Come 'Round 'Gain, 'As He?

I've been watching TDS religiously for 10 years now, and I think the most extreme change happened last year when David Javerbaum left as head writer. The show became less a comedy show and more a "what's annoying Jon today?" show. Not that I think the show is necessarily worse, just more commentary and less comedy.

and Chris Pine

Led Zeppelin, "Sick Again"

yeah, did we ever find out what Van Alden did with Sepso's body? Fallon had the shoes and the gun …

Someone on these boards once said that the beauty of Star Trek is that it lets you fill in so many things it leaves out (mostly plot holes) in ways that make sense. I would add that it is just complete enough that you can come up with your own plots and still be convinced that they could have worked. Shit, at this…

Damn right Sisko was a good dad. He put everything the Federation had behind a damn near suicidal mission to get his son back.

Apparently DDL is also speaking in a high-pitched voice, for which Lincoln was supposedly well-known. That could be … kinda silly. Jeez, the guy died 150 years ago, can't we just pretend he sounded like a badass?

holy shit

Oh hey, did you know that the major cable systems in NYC don't carry NFL Network? Yeah, it's just the biggest media market in the fucking country.

tl;dr

hard to believe there are no Beetlejuice references in this (reasonable) discussion

another Joe worshipper here, and I think this could actually be a fun movie. The story is that Bernie Rhodes, lunatic asshole that he was, suggested Strummer fake a disappearance to drum up publicity for the album/tour, so Strummer ACTUALLY dropped out and told no one where he was. Rhodes had to hire a PI to track him…

whoever they end up casting, he better start chain smoking RIGHT NOW

sha la la laaaaaa

yes, everyone knows nothing gets the ladies in the mood faster than disagreeing with them on issues related to gender inequality. Ooooh yeaaaaaaah
