The seedy underbelly of cheerful 50's suburban conformity has for decades fascinated filmmakers and approximately nobody else.

Really surprised “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet” wasn’t the pick from the Twilight Zone movie. I thought the going concern on that was that the other three segments were bad and Miller’s finale was the only worthwhile part (other than the prologue with Brooks and Aykroyd). Maybe AV Club wanted to avoid that cliched reading

“Oh Jordy, you lunk-head!”

You can only choose one segment of Black Sabbath and you go with The Telephone?! It’s a fine little chiller but The Wurdulak is better and Drop Of Water is as perfect as a horror short can be, the atmosphere and sound design create unbearable tension.

I asked for a Ghostbuster costume, but he sent me Crystal Head Vodka.

I’m excited to spend more time with all the fantastic characters from the first season, particularly the phenomenal young lead actors.

“It’s 9 o clock! Do you know where you’re idiot son in law is?”

Cross seems to want to shock or “make people uncomfortable” and Odenkirk has to keep reminding him that’s not “the main thing”. I think it had to do with the Heaven is Totez 4 Realz sketch.

Footage of that meeting with David Cross just came to light.

I think Bob Odenkirk even thinks he’s kind of an asshole. When you watch the “making of” special produced alongside “W/Bob & David,” there’s a painful scene during the writing process where Cross is pushing hard for some really offensive joke, and Odenkirk is pushing back just as hard, saying, essentially, “it’s not

Yeah. I’m a big fan of Mr. Show and Arrested Development, but Cross’ standup often just feels like him being an asshole and swinging at low-hanging fruit. I mean, I’m both liberal and an asshole, but I just don’t have time for his thing. So I have an easier time believing he’s just an all-around asshole, rather than

Russ Tamblyn, on the other hand, thinks that David Cross is full of so much shit that we would all need to buy golden shovels to dig through it all.

This feels like something that should’ve been handled privately from all parties? I don’t know. Sounds like they all know each other pretty well and supposedly have good relationships with each other so the whole situation as to why this was made public confuses me a little.

David Cross is kind of funny, aligns with my politics and all of that...

For a minute, I thought he was Ken Griffey Jr. That got my hopes up.

Worth the read.

I actually really liked this episode, and think it represents a lot more than a “video game tie-in,” which I was initially afraid it would primarily be from the title.
