Even when he does the voice-over for the British version, he speaks in a hushed, calm tone. It sets the mood nicely.

I always liked when Gordon would work with a young chef who was in a bad position that was beyond their control. He'd send them to cooking school, invite them to work in his restaurants, and give them a good footing to start their careers. He seemed like a great mentor.

If you enjoyed even a shred of the American version, it's worth your time to seek out the BBC version. It's so, so much better and has some actual heart to it.

I remember seeing a show about that and it was so pathetic. "Reborn dolls" or something?

Those masks are stunning. Damn.

Check out the Humble Bundles, too. I haven't been keeping up with them like I used to, but they were a great way to get a ton of games (usually quality ones) for very cheap.

I think every fourth episode of Kitchen Nightmares that I see is Mama Leone's. The one with the older lady with the uhh … tracheotomy? Not sure what that's called. The throat hole.

Yeah? Well, I got chipotle mayo ON THE SIDE. Separate little container with a lid.

P.S. Find a bathroom stall like everyone else.

The two varieties of shorts are apparently cargo and the pastel, skin-tight, five inches above your knees kind. Definitely not a fan of the latter.

What about when it's 90 degrees and humid? Still long pants?

Isn't Ray Donovan that type of role? I haven't watched more than a few minutes of that show, but my mom is a big fan.

Have you introduced your son to Kingdom Rush? It's kind of the next level up from PvZ in terms of tower defense complexity, and it's one of my favorite franchises. I've played all three on iOS countless times and they're still engaging. It has bright, colorful characters that would appeal to kids and it doesn't get…

That name again … is Mr. Plow.

Gotta have that cheese sauce, too.

Whatever it is that he's doing, I don't want it.

I was expecting to hate that movie, but laughed out loud at Statham a few times. He was immune to poison because spent time deep under cover, working in an underground poison-ingesting crime ring.

It's definitely worth checking out if you enjoy dumb action movies from the 90s!

God, DMB fans are so lame!

I'm not familiar with that one - what's the deal with ordering?
