Got through less than five minutes of Rob Schenider's show, and it was the reality show/mockumentary monologue segments that was just one shit pillar too many. I watched all of The Chosen One because of its mythical level of awfulness and Steve Buscemi alone makes it worth watching. But I don't think I will ever watch…

Read Philip K. Dick's A Scanner Darkly for the first time this year and Ursula Le Guin's Lathe of Heaven, is this style of dreamy adult sci-fi even being made today? The adapations of Dick's works have all been uniformly far off from the original intention, but after seeing Linklater's movie before reading the book I…

It's even more tragic than the exclusion of Hannibal, because I think Hannibal would lose it's mystique if it was suddenly embraced by the mainstream and lauded with plaudits from industry titans. The Americans on the other hand is more of a conventional show that is well made and politically charged and interesting,…

"Quicksand" by Bjork. In my dream world this is the lead single off of Vulnicura, an album still without a formal single, and it has a music video directed by Gondrey.

The Erykah Badu version or get out.

But the sympathy is layered on pretty thick, that man eating vagina woman you mention is a…

As someone who enjoys Coraline and the artwork of Sandman I decided to give American Gods a shot. The first challenge is presented right out of the gate by unironically naming the protagonist Shadow, and characters frequently comment on his name being Shadow. No one mentions his hedge hog brethren, I guess there's…

Heard this song in one of the only places you'll hear it, forced onto you by a corporate radio playlist at the grocery store, and I could swear I got a real Panda Bear/Animal Collective vibe from it, and could almost imagine liking the song if I was disoriented enough.

I am afraid Bjork's strings-only version of Vulnicura fits in this category.

Their albums with Scott Walker and Ulver last year were both insanely great albums. Real glad I got into heavy metal through them as opposed to Burzum, nothing to be embarassed about with these Sunn O))) druids.

In a just world maybe the attention was huge, but D'angelo was another album whose appreciation was rushed because of how it was released.

Glaring omissions:
Bjork
Joanna Newsom
Destroyer
Deerhunter
Panda Bear
Dan Deacon

I'm neither, neither male or female or a Marx bros. afficiando. What Gummo scene or sketch do you think I should check out?

The drop in quality from Comedy Central and CBS is still really jarring and unlike the critics I just can't forget the power of Colbert Report and find this paltry substitute worthwhile. He got a good booking agent, but I don't believe his writing staff is being used to their best abilities.

He reminds certain film viewers of the fictionalized version of their favorite distance white male figure that is projected on Murray's blank slate face.

Ghostbusters is a solid film, but anything that is turned into a franchise feels like it has soured the cinema landscape.

I am a Millenial and feel like it's the closest I can get to saying the N-bomb.

I must have the specific kind of learning disorder or dyslexia that usually hears a soft "a" with every "in" located in a title.

Holy fuck? Really? Minnie is my absolute favorite R&B singer and have been listening to Adventures in Paradise nearly everyday this fall. Now I know why my gut-level reaction to Maya Rudolph was to adore her.

Yeah but they brought back Mr. Show this year too. All in all cable is becoming less relevant with every passing year.
