Kang thinks it's amusing that a comedy team with two straight men essentially just means two regular guys teaming up to bully an idiot. So, I guess it's that podcast with Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Carl Pilkington?

This is objectively correct. The C-word sketch is the Instant Classic of 'W/Bob & David'.

Ha, Kang's seen Zelig, but so long ago he doesn't remember that bit. Previous to Moby Dick, Kang read Infinite Jest and all four of the extant books in Caro's Years of Lyndon Johnson, so Melville's book was almost a novella in comparison. Still, there's no way to savor the book in a month. I'm already planning to

Finished Moby Dick. Thoroughly enjoyed it as a surprisingly modern and often funny novel. Also there was genuine surprise at portions of the ending, specifically how Ahab gets it— The image of Gregory Peck lashed to that fake whale is so imbedded in the public consciousness and that isn't even (quite) what happens!

Kang also enjoyed The End of the Tour. Kang must give credit where it's due— Segel was incredible. Went far past an impersonation and felt like a fully formed character who just happened to be David Foster Wallace. Kang also just watched Mr. Turner, and feels encouraged that filmmakers may finally have cracked the

Yes, it's almost as if governments would be better off doing something constructive about the sources of political violence instead of spending all their technology and capital trying to protect themselves against the symptoms.

Kang loves him, but he's too self-aware for Star Wars.

Watchmen— Tomas Alfredson

Teti's erotic obsession with Ed Hochuli has quickly become Kang's favorite ongoing AVClub subplot.

This, this is a well done joke, people.

Always go top-shelf with your hatred. Off-brand hatred gives you fierce shits.

Kang decrees Rob Riggle pretty likable and funny. Vastly underrated, even. Are you defying Kang? Are you? Are you asking for a good Conquerin'?

Lauren Graham and Maura Tierney in tight business casual dresses was more than Kang's brunette-lovin' eyes could take. It was like staring at the sun. The brunette sun.

What is in those original chicken sandwiches? They have 'modern' fried chicken breast sandwiches at BK but still carry the 'original', which is obviously a processed patty of chicken eyeballs and entrails. And it's DELICIOUS. Kang suspects there is a combination of lemon zest/pure cocaine in that goddamn mayonnaise.

Maybe the think it's…

made of people?

Yeah, it's the only Kevin/Dave duo in which Kevin gets the upper hand.

Mr. Show certainly can hold its own, and Monty Python are legend. But while Kang admires and enjoys those shows, he friggin' loves the Kids. They shaped Kang.

I mean I'm going to kill them!

No. That was an F. If you're going to pander to the lowest common denominator, if you're going to refuse a golden opportunity to unleash some actual satire, then… at least be funny. And if you can't be funny, at least be watchable. Instead, SNL settled on the Twitter Sketch. Which sucked so bad, so powerfully,

Not forever, they won't.
