Oz should get more credit than it does in creating the modern day cable drama. It does in this interview but most of the time people think HBO had no original dramas before Sopranos. 

I wonder what was so wrong with the 12 Miles of Bad Road show that HBO dropped it.

Wow I was going to give my own answer to my post and I was also thinking about using Alf. I guess Alf is the heart and soul of pop culture from the last thirty years.

Let us create our own Super Bowl commercial   1. Pick a animal/baby/cartoon/ celebrity that was
popular twenty years ago 2. Have them do something wacky 3. Have a pop song
from the last forty years be playing in the ad 4. Pick the company/product that
the commercial is for (that may have nothing to do with the commercial

Loved the Stoller WTF. Best WTF show in weeks IMHO.

I would go

Wow I said Board Empire. That sounds like a really bad spinoff.

I guess as far as cable dramas go they seem to have a few levels of critical love. Level one= Breaking Bad and Mad Men. Level two being Game Of  Thrones, Justified, and maybe Treme.
I guess Board Empire would kind of be on a level of it's own before we get to the Walking Deads and True Bloods of the world.

Dude you must have passing out issues.

Todd is known for his hatred of the Good Wife and his love of True Blood and the Killing.

Will the young Irish female jockey have sex with her brother like Octavia?

I love the idea of trying to fit in Hadler's Alda on the show every week. Like just have him be a patron in a bar or moderating a debate.

The thing about M*A*S*H* is it was on for so long that People on the show would call Radar and Klinger "kid" and they looked like they were pushing 40.

Yes Sam seems to be more of a high brow cultural elitist type and his ultra-nationalism is just a part of that. He seems to be more Buckley than Beck.

Now if Fox News complained about Sam the Eagle they would have at least somewhat of a point. I mean in the movie we see that Sam is hosting a Fox News-like show. Did the Fox people even notice that?

They are not even trying to not to be evil at this point are they?

So Fox News thinks the Muppets are socialist since the villain of the movie is rich? the plot is that a bad guy has bought the muppet theater.how can he NOT be rich?a poor person does not do that.

Come now. This by the end of the summer this could become the av clubs most popular show and Patrick Duffy may become a tv club icon on the level of a Alison Brie or a Bryan Cranston ( a Cranbrie)

Did he grow up thinking that Lucy Ewing was his mom?

I love the part where the voiceover guy says something like " with a secret under each drop of oil" That's a lot of secrets.
