Still disappointing that they didn't (couldn't?) get Ed O'Neil for that guest spot.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (the movie) - a film for geeks by geeks, for better and worse. Very fun to watch, directed with kinetic energy, perfectly cast in the supporting roles (my favorite: Alison Pill as Kim), but it didn't really add up. Just too overstuffed - they probably should have lost at least two of the…

If you're interested in behind the scenes stuff (and even if you aren't - it's worth it) treat yourself to Earl Pomerantz' account of how he showran the first part of the first season. Starts here: http://earlpomerantz.blogsp… and is fascinating to read. Ken Levine also has some stories on his blog of how Cosby was…

Sondra didn't originally exist. She was added a few episodes into the first season because Cosby wanted to have an example of the result of successful parenting. (In the pilot Cliff even asks "Why do we have four children" to which Clair answers "Because we did not want five.")

Lists like these make me realize how amazing cinema really is. Like, we're so far along that we take it for granted, but seriously? You can freeze a moment in time? And make it move? How is that possible? How did anyone ever think 'this should be something that's possible'? Wow, I'm drunk!

Speaking of Hasselhoff and Germany: if you can read German I recommend this blog post by a journalist who spent two days with Hasselhoff and Pam Anderson doing a promotional event (lifeguard training with the stars from Baywatch!) on Fuerteventura in 1993: http://wortvogel.de/2007/04…

He was never that big. Just like the French supposedly love Jerry Lewis, this is something American media likes to exaggerate because it's funny in a random way. I think most Germans are unaware this stereotype exists about them, unlike more pleasant ones like Oktoberfest and nazis

I'm sad when websites I used to waste hours reading are no longer accessible. TVTome, the old Jump The Shark site come to mind. That's when I discovered other people were obsessed with TV and loved to analyze it too. There were lots of dumb comments on JTS, and when it came to shows that were still on the air it…
