Yes, the timing is also bad between Colbert throwing to him and expecting a quick response. It's as if the producers under mic it all because they know it isn't worth much. I think the band is interesting though, just no need to include everyone. But the veggie chips crunching over a mic in rehearsal, yeah, that isn't…

I like the changes he's been introducing, the cold openers and the tag endings are so much better. He seems to really enjoy adding these touches that bring us with him into the show and then we also leave the show with him, to something surprising and funny. Rather than being a formal stage, proscenium and him…

Oh good. His twitter was very ambivalent, using "not necessarily.." and such, meaning possibly a movie I thought.

Yes, that is official it seems.

Wasn't it Donna who identified the potential of chat rooms, while Cameron was focused intently on her interests? I think Donna contributed to Mutiny as more than just business, in ways that Cameron can't admit.

Plus ended up headless.

Surely (and in the end, so much has been referenced in Simpsons lore) but as I recall their guest-star was good timing with some topical moment for them, maybe Tom was getting an honorable emmy for the Smothers Bros show, it was being released on DVD etc. In general, I don't see how a younger audience gets the…

Or just time travel back to when it was done correctly on Adult Swim, via Harvey Birdman etc. This just seems as if to willfully ignore what has been better done in the same "genre" already, with more bit and craziness fitting to the format.

I'm surprised that there is no reference to The Happy Painter, a documentary on him that I heartily recommend. It covers his life and such, and many of the points in this article, but also points to the idea Ross innately understood there was a kind of zen-like correspondence that perfectly aligned between the comfort…

What I was left recalling from this ep was the amount of developed history, apparent in the brilliant detail and references the Simpsons can manage by now. The version of the Adventure Time opening wonderfully moved through so many of these references repurposed for AT style and humor, as did certain sequences…

I think an argument could be made, that The Good Place is something like taking some of the best bits of the old 1960s cult series The Prisoner, and turning it into a comedy premise.

Yeah I think that whole backstory past of activism didn't end up playing a big a part as it was probably planned, and so the father ends up being sort of coming off as soft, even if standing as reason, without much effect on his son.

Yes, but it isn't about how crucial the job was to the show (although HI did a better job of integrating both spouses stories as time went on) but their overall ease of life with so many kids, no assistance at home, and apparently being home even during the working day. It was hardly honey I'm home for either of them…

He's distributed a docu-something, which includes his home movies of playing a set of gigs with Dylan in the early electric days when the Band were backing him too. It's bizarrely true.

That would have been a good combination in fact, yes, Perry is far too wooden in his Oscar role.

But I could believe Tim went to work at that job, and returned and Jill was at home then tried to do her studies and so on, compared to the Cosby's doctor/lawyer work load of a few hours a day with lots of money and no stress.

Especially as long as BBT keeps doing yet another version about Leonard and Penny getting married. The way they milked the wedding part of that boring relationship only helped to make Sheldon and Amy look like genuine desire in comparison.

I never felt the Keaton father was taken seriously, certainly not by Alex. He was the light part of the parents, the mother was more the weighty presence.

He's actually good in Red Oaks, which I think is due to return?

Still…. there's something that doesn't add up with Home Improvement as strictly throw-away sitcom fodder and such stuff. For one thing, it doesn't age in the same ways as others because it isn't easy to make a camp reading with it. For all that is there in Golden Girls reviewing, it's also truly camp.
HI actually…
