That's a willful misreading. Friday is Friday. I don't watch TV on said day, at all, ever, and I'm damn sure not the only one. More episodes are great, and were already promised to us, so forgive me for not slapping my seal paws together in joy. A future to the show wasn't either, but I sure see no reason to see one…

It would have been kinder to just cancel Community. I love the show, but I'm not staying in, avoiding Whitney, and watching it live to help in its future death.

"Ben should always drink whiskey, if only for that terrifying face he makes when he does."
Corrected.

For the record, I'm still hoping this Police Academy week ends with Michael Winslow performing a song, if not a full set, as part of Undercover. It's just hope, but I'm just saying. (No band behind him, needless to say.)

I appreciate that you said "the nightmares" instead of just "nightmares." Really takes it over the top.

Strange? I dunno, many is the time I've amused my nephew by pretending to drill a hole in someone and play their brain stem like a string instrument. I, however, prefer to pretend my drill is slightly rusty, and that the brain stem is a harp. I also do a little of Joanna Newsom-like singing. Cracks that kid up.

Her recent shows around New York, at the Blue Note and the Music Hall of Williamsburg, were supposed to be pretty amazing, if 2-3 hours late. (Which makes me glad I didn't get tickets, actually.) Also: no new material at all performed. Hmm.

This isn't going to be right until the 2Pac hologram gets into beef with other holograms. It'll be like a "real"-life hip-hop fighting game.

Is blowtorchsploitation a proper genre? Because if so, I really need to catch up on it.

I actually traveled back in time once, Quantum Leap-style, as one of the Fox executives who cancelled Family Guy the first and second time. It didn't take, and I scream at Ziggy every day to give me one more chance to correct history, with a gun.

“County and Surrounding Towns Closed. No More Information Can Be Provided at This Time" made me spit out a mouthful of Old Grand-Dad. And it was my first drink of the night.

"Superman III can be fantastically enjoyable in its own right,"

Why not? He's not too big a cheese to do this show for a second season.

The show is bleeding profusely, if not yet dead, so we may as well run through all the "the [    ] episode" gimmicks left in the pantry. The all musical episode? The Freaky Friday episode? The Very Special Episode (okay, they did this with Kenny's death)? Bring 'em all on. It's easier than coming up with solidly…

"Shaft (1973-74, seven episodes, starring Richard Roundtree)" would have fit well here. Toned down beyond recognition.

"Please do not offer my god a peanut."

Oh, I'm sorry, you wanted a tug-of-war? For that, you'd want Sumo v.s. Orangutan, from the same special.

I don't care how big or small the auditorium is where they're filming is: Man v.s. Beast's shiniest stars (one elephant, 44 little people) must be there. Other than The Simpsons and some sporting events, it's the only thing I ever saw on Fox that I will never forget. (No matter how I try.)

It had even nicer-looking people in it when it was called Sports Night.

Apparently though, Werner Herzog does not play this "GQ" shit, or he brings the serious actor out of everyone. The 'Rescue Dawn' entry in IMDB is the only sign of his unfortunate real name:
