I'd nominate "Nathan For You" as well. The shamelessly self-revelatory shot of his college transcript, the deadpan narration, and the mixed reactions of the people Nathan "helps" are all absolutely perfect little nuggets of what the show is.

Can anyone else hear some complete fucking moron muttering "This is so racist" at 0:14 in the Kendrick video?

And then they go "Oh, wait, never mind. This is just another one of those MRA assholes."

Yeah he seems pretty open to receiving notes from the network

There's a big difference between believing in capital punishment in real life and approving of it in fiction. The death of the villain is a satisfying ending to a narrative; it feels final, definitive, absolute. It also means the story has to go in a different direction in order to continue, which I'm glad JJ is going

Came out in January 2014.

This is easily my favorite film, and I've seen it probably 20 times. And that detail never once occurred to me. Fuck, I love this movie.

Gob, stop it, you're making me dizzy.

"If that makes me a chippy little autodidact in your eyes, then so be it."

I'm a Jewish guy in my mid-20s and I can count on one hand the number of times I've been in a church. That line's not so unbelievable.

That whole bit was based on Abed Gheith's idea for a tiny-food restaurant that he pitched on Harmontown. When someone asked about the waiter, Abed said "Well, he's small too."

This land is full of TROUSERS!

That line absolutely makes the song. You'd be crazy to skip it.

If Ice Cube Head doesn't show up in the background of some sort of interdimensional orgy on the next season of Rick & Morty, I'll be a little bummed out.

There's a difference between "defusing fear" and "telling people there's nothing to be afraid of." In Harmon's view, story structure exists in order to bring the audience into danger, chaos, and the subconscious, and then to lead them out of it having learned and changed. In a monster movie, that's going to take the

Really? He explains everything:

Yeah, there's that little bit of a lisp on the "s" in the word "silver." His voice is very distinctive, so it's weird that they'd choose to have the character say something if they didn't want to reveal his identity…unless they really didn't care, which I suspect is what happened.

His appearances on Harmontown are always top class. His delivery is perfect, which stands out on a podcast where half the fun is the fact that the host stutters every time he tries to string three words together.

Spotted the guy who owns the extended editions.

God, I hope that's what they do. Daredevil's New York is way, way more interesting and nuanced than it is in the MCU, where it basically exists as a sort of cinematic punching bag.
