In fairness, he was previously murdered by his own men, so the show's been pretty upfront about his "terrible commander" status for a while.

This should get bumped a full letter grade just for the Americans cast reunion. (And an Oz reunion to boot.)

After I got obsessed with Beyond The Pale (10 years ago? more?), I bought Gaffigan's first CD, which is the only one with a Parental Advisory warning. It's definitely his weakest material. He really is the rare comedian who's funnier without profanity.

Always loved this song… It's goofy trashy pop. Also, the vocal sounds nothing like Cameo.

Reg E. Cathy is one of the coolest human beings on the planet. That is all.

These FOC columns make a lot more sense if you assume each one is an AVC staff in joke, with the senior writers coming up with the stupidest premise ever before picking some poor intern to defend it.

I'm probably biased since I did some extra and stand-in work on the show, but I really think Outcast is gonna surprise a lot of people. It definitely has a lot of backstory and mythology that slowly unveils as the season goes on. Some of my favorite characters (and actors) aren't in the pilot at all.
Also, we shot some…

This entire album is pretty fantastic, which deserves to be brought up a few more times to stem the onslaught of AVC douchebags making typically AVC douchey comments.

Purging your CD collection is like dumping your stock portfolio in January 2009. (Or, more specifically, dumping all your "worthless vinyl" in 1995. No one's ever gonna pay good money for originał Floyd and Bowie pressings!)

So, turns out the LoL is a boob man.

Not sure why the writer didn't catch the obvious reason greatest hits albums aren't well regarded anymore: They're irrelevant. If you can stream an entire artist's catalog on Spotify, you don't need some guy at the label telling you which 15 songs are their "greatest" hits. You can assemble your own playlist, any way…

What is this, a chair factory??

"Guess I'm gonna need a bucket of ice and a roll of gaffer's tape."

This grade is why no one comes to AV Club for music reviews.

The interview never touched on it, but the lighting for the last NIN tour was absolutely insane. I've seen a ton of shows, and there were several sequences where my mouth fell open in a "I've never seen anything like that in my life" moment.
This guy deserves whatever (large) amount of money he gets paid.

Or smart writing, careful plotting, incredible acting, multi-layered themes…
You know, typical Gen X nostalgia.

Ray Wilson and the 1997 Genesis album Calling All Stations would disagree with you.

Seems bizarre to include bands with "replacement singers" who never recorded a note… But leave out Genesis, one of the most obvious examples of this topic. Critical acclaim with Gabriel, mainstream success with Collins, and… Quick descent into mediocrity with the guy no one liked.

Solid episode. Too bad the dismal ratings mean AV Club can't afford a reviewer who can proofread…
…or maybe just a proofreader.

I just wish they'd put him in the "Photograph" video.
