This season of the show takes place around the winter of '81-82. I think several episodes back they mentioned John Belushi dying which happened the week I was born, first week of March '82.

I remember the last time I sat down to watch a new episode of the Simpsons. I think they were showing it on a special night. Must have been around 2002/2003. All I remember was that Jane Kazcmarek (sic) played a judge and the whole family was sentenced to death or prison or something like that. That was enough for me.…

Only small problem for me with this show is that as a New Yorker (where the show is filmed), who has also lived in DC/NOVA (where its supposed to take place) I'm often taken a bit out of following the drama to figure out if I recognize places. I was immediately taken out of the Arkady/Gadd scene because I immediately…

Colbert was in a New York Philharmonic concert performance of Stephen Sondheim's Company. He also apparently was onscreen in the Hobbit2, but I don't think he had any distinct lines.

I like it. It has a real "Laurie Anderson" feel.

"Where No One Has Gone Before" is legitimately good.

It was a pretty good show, actually.

Didn't they already make this show? http://en.wikipedia.org/wik…

Oh man, I'd definitely be a twinkie, lol.

lol, how many shuttlecraft were stolen on that show? It's harder to steal a car from Hertz!

I think it was "aural missive" or perhaps "oral missive"

This is my favorite director parody videos. Slate magazine back in 2010 did a "What if the Super Bowl were directed by famous filmmakers?" video. The Wes Anderson one is pretty good.

Doesn't seem like anyone mentioned it yet, but the song was written by Garfunkel and Oates.

stuartsaysstop- the reason its' probably not a violation of Disney's copyright is because of "fair use." Fair use can be kind of complicated, but it basically means that there are certain situations in which you can use copyrighted intellectual property in your own works. There are a number of factors in determining…

I thought it was when he learned about Google Earth and it's ability to see everyone's houses.

Am I a horrible person for thinking that the funniest moment in the show's entire run that I saw at least (I stopped watching sometime around Michael Scott Paper Company) was the puppet show scene? I realize that there's some sadness underlying it, but that really is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Also…

I find it ironic that my first exposure to catfish "noodling," which is featured in the show "Hillbilly Handfishing" was on a documentary about that sport that I happened to catch on a PBS station.

It's a real coffeehouse. http://www.cafegrumpy.com/l…

Isn't it "we won the world series last year" …"in six games"?
