Haven't seen it but if it's good comics just sitting around and riffing about news and slamming each other than I'm in, will keep my eye out for repeats.
Would it be fair to say this is like a better version of Tough Crowd w/ Collin Quinn?

His first album, Mixed Bag, is one of my biggest Holy Crap I Can't Believe This Isn't More Famous Albums.  I dunno, maybe 'cause it came out in the late 60s, in the middle of the Golden Age of Rock?  But it's achingly gorgeous, with his signature anti-war song Handsome Johnny, the stunningly gorgeous Follow and

Yeah that about covers it.
On top of that, though, he does deeply respect her.  She makes her way in the world with her sword, certainly he can relate.  And she beat him in a fight and he would respect that.

Let's play Royal Matchmaker!

She is basically an anthropomorphic key to the city (of Winterfell).  They are all planning for what will happen after they defeat Robb Stark.  As far as they know, all of Ned Stark's other children are dead so whomever would marry Sansa could look like the legitimate ruler of Winterfell.

I can see where you're coming from but I don't mind because when Sheridan finally does blow up at Kosh, it makes the wait worth it.

His shoes may have been too small, but did he forget how to dance?

Does that mean he's the same guy who wrote TKO?  Because the fighter's "stroke off!" line is one of the clumsiest moments from the series.

"Pre-cheats."  God, yes, exactly.  That anecdote would explain the clusterfuck nature of the Garibaldi/Dodger Dawson's Creek type drama.  Blech.

Yes this is correct.

Mira Furlan (Delenn) was Rousseau on Lost.

I HATE Garibaldi's behavior in this episode.
First of all, Dodger is sexy as hell and no healthy unattached man would turn that down.
But even if you do, why spend the day with her, leading her on.  She was very direct and open about what she wanted.
His penis, that's what.

Your analogy between the Grey Council and the U.S. Congress fails in two important ways:
1. The Grey Council all honor and look to Dukat as a singular authority.  We have no equivalent here.  No Ronald Reagan doesn't count.  Delenn was her acolyte and obvious successor-in-training.  Based on their own customs and

Remind me which dream this was of Sheridan's?  I actually remember the visions/dreams being explained pretty well in this series.  Is this the one with like 5 future Sheridans?

Yeah Sheridan told someone before- I think it was Ivanova- that collecting conspiracies is his "hobby."

Trek can't do sex right because the vast majority of pop culture can't do sex right.
I mean seriously, pretty much any time anything sexual is attempted in mass-media pop culture entertainment, it's painful.  Cheap and silly and not how humans behave at all and exploitative.

The show's material is hit-or-miss but I think one's enjoyment is going to be mostly related to how much they like Jeffries.
I was a fan after hearing him on Opie & Anthony and then catching some HBO (I think?) stand-up show where he has a long hilarious anecdote about masturbating with a plastic egg up his ass.

First and foremost, my thanks to Ryan and all you folks for convincing me to get into this show.  It definitely looked stupid in the commercials but even though I don't post much, I am an AVClub fanboy and if something is praised a lot here I will always give it a chance.  Same reason I got into Enlightened and

I really wouldn't be surprised is they just didn't want to force the actor to wear some stupid wig- he is old, and really respected and they liked him lots.  So they added that nice little explanation of the emperor just not wanting to be bothered any more, and it actually plays well thematically with the reveal that
