People still buy car magazines?

And for a more recent example, Sacha Baron Cohen is known for the HBO version of his Ali G show and subsequent Borat and Bruno films. People don't know him from your equivalent of SNL (sorry I forget the name offhand). You just know people were looking to capitalize on Ali G's success at the time and they couldn't

Awesome point. Despite the parodies of themselves they've become, I love it when Top Gear actually gushes over a cheap car (once per series).

Most "mainstream" UK shows are not mainstream in the US — or if they are they have been remade into US versions, unbeknown by the majority of fans (including Simon Cowell's Idol and X factor).

The Falcon is reversed!!!! Unacceptable, who committed this blasphemy!

How many times is time travel just pulled out as a plot device in Trek? Since it's so easy, why isn't it used all the time?

I still want to know how he escaped a nuclear blast when he was still in the cockpit with 6 seconds on the timer.

Either the most awesome dumb movie ever made, or the dumbest awesome movie ever made.

Is that the young Beaver girl I keep hearing about?

UN Agenda 21.

New York City was on the verge of death in the 1970s, and was caught up in a national move west to Los Angeles...

What about Antarctica? Please don't tell me I'm left out. And the penguins. Think of the penguins.

I make $3.7 billion every 10 minutes on the internet. Beat that!

I must know more. Why have I never heard this before?
