My attempt to stump it was George Mikan to Anna Karina. Nine moves.

Why?
Not gonna lie: very much considering cancelling the HBO subscription I re-instated when Veep started up again back in the spring. Ballers is hot garbage, The Brink is somehow actually worse than Ballers, and I just have no fucking idea what's going on in True Detective (and not in a good way).
Hit the Road Jack springs to mind.
"History Lesson, Pt. 2" really chokes me up sometimes. It's kind of amazing that the same album contains something as hilariously sarcastic as #1 Hit Song, but also something as heart-on-the-sleeve sentimental as History Lesson.
Well shit.
Hard to know if Peyton Manning is gonna be healthy this coming season, but if he's anywhere close to 100 percent I'd love to see what Odell Beckham Jr could do catching passes from Peyton rather than Eli.
So you made a list of quotes, but didn't include "that dark, wet look"?
Yeah, well tell that to my dad in 1982.
Was that Dukie from The Wire as the Dolphins' ballboy? If so, the Dolphins better be careful that he doesn't grab a bunch of equipment and throw it in his junk wagon.
You're forgetting the part of Assault where the contestants have to pick up various weapons (there was like a tennis ball pistol, and some sort of nerf gun rocket launcher), and then try to shoot back and hit a target. I actually liked Assault the best too—most of the other events were just raw strength or speed, but…
I was gonna go Loretta Lynn. Anyone who likes Dolly (and one should like Dolly) will almost certainly find something to like in Loretta Lynn.
Creon (of burying his daughter alive in a cave fame) and Pap Finn (of beating the shit out of his son and also trying to steal his son's money fame) are deserving of a long look for this list.
BALLERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had a similar reaction on re-watch, although I will say that one thing I like about the show is that Rory, while certainly not a malevolent person, is often a bad girlfriend in precisely the sort of ways that a super-driven, somewhat introverted young woman who has been told she is perfect her entire life is likely…
Oh man—that's the real shit. Remembering changing the channel with pliers really takes me back.
When are the going to come out with the commentary track for the third season of House of Cards, where they explain why they decided to make it suck ass?
First DVD I owned was the I, Claudius box set, which my dad gave to me along with the DVD player he gave me for Christmas. In retrospect, that is definitely one of the best presents I ever received.
I remember being quite psyched when I bought a bootleg VHS copy of the Star Wars X-Mas Special for fifteen bucks or so off ebay back in 1999. My friends and I had a party, made drinks, watched that crap—it was quite a time.
Fair enough—it's been a while since I saw it. I guess I'd still think of '79/'80 as X-ers, though it's obviously pretty close to the cusp.
