A good bass player is absolutely essential. But you're right in that there are a lot of us.

Shouldn't it have been the bass player? No one remembers the bass player.

Elevating Alan Rickman by trashing some of the movies he was in is an unnecessary way to give tribute. Hitchhiker's Guide was a wonderful movie (adapted by Adams, himself). Just because it's different than the low-budget old TV series is a stupid reason to criticize it. The actors do a good job and Rickman's voicing

I was momentarily concerned that they would be declared co-winners and all brought back the next day. Nope. I thought it was a hard question and the tie was created by the top two players being tied.

I'm not surprised that the too-cool-for-school crowd here doesn't like Keillor. He's too decent and not edgy enough. I believe that he will go down as the greatest American story-teller of the late 20th century.

No Wish You Were Here? I guess the AV Club thinks that life began in 1980.

I like unusual humor, but that one didn't work on any level. Good idea to not air it.
