My only problem with this is that Oswalt didn't give Mr. Glass any kind of specific motivation for continuing to be a supervillain. Just doing something randomly evil and saying "cmon you gotta stop me!" isn't very fulfilling. That's the biggest missing piece.

If you ever read Al Franken's book (Lying Liars…) you know that not only is this a common practice for Bill O'Reilly (duh) but he gets very, very angry about it if you try to call him on it. A lot like L. Ron Hubbard, now that I think about it…
You must not read any critical reviews. Like, any of them. They're all breathless with praise. I posted this link in another response, but I'm responding to things like this: http://www.slate.com/blogs/…

I thought quite the opposite: the start of the show was more like a tired, boring late night monologue that Wilmore delivered very awkwardly. Plus it looks like the show is really going to lean on panel discussion as the unique thing that sets it apart from the other comedy news shows.

Wilmore, alright, needs to speak, alright, a little less, ok, haltingly, alright, because he sounds, alright, like he's nervous, ok?
From what I remember of those shows as a child, they were never even tried to come close to Koenig's attempt at being even-handed, and respectful of people that didn't want to participate.

Patrick Stewart's enduring legacy: master of the facepalm.
"Nine" sucked as a musical anyway.
If I had three wishes to change Hollywood, one would be killing the Dickensian cockney accent forever.
