And he was drunk on carrots. Don't eat carrots and burrow!

Paper-mache pug?!

Bam bam! Bam bam bam, bam!! Bam.

But what if Baio dared to knock that battery off of Conrad's shoulder?!

Right. Kinda like comparing Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan. Sure, Jordan defied gravity, utterly humiliated defenders and was pure poetry in motion, but The Stilt had a 100 pt game, pre 3 pointer era! There just ain't been invented a math that can compute that kinda comparison. Nope, it's futile, futile I say!

Obama!

Scott Baio won Battle of the Network Stars I think in 1981. He was one speedy little Chach. He kicked Gabe Kaplan's ass.

Who was more popular, Pinky Tuscadero or her younger sister, Leather Tuscadero?

It's all the more disturbing that sweet innocent lovable Joanie Cunningham could fall victim to such a sad, tragic fate. Whoa, this is truly the darkest timeline…

What's even more curious is that even if there was a likelihood of future interest, such as if it was excised footage of a particularly unusual, spectacular or poignant scene the studios still weren't inclined to hold onto it. To them it was all just so much trivial scraps.

Clue? No, I'm more of a Murder By Death aficionado. I mean, c'mon, the cast list, alone, is worthy of reverential awe: Eileen Brennan (also in Clue), Truman Capote, James Coco, Peter Falk!, Alec Guinness, Elsa Lanchester, David Niven, Maggie Smith, James Cromwell, and of course the sublimely absurd Peter Sellers. His…

Yep, I was surprised when Seth failed to credit Bob Hope since for years I didn't have a doubt that's who Quagmire was modeled on. He was very specific about his love for those mid century newscasters' voices.

They should make it Crab Cab, and anyone who gets in the cab—regardless of how well they answer the questions—gets crabs. No, not the pesky little parasite that like to live in your pubic hair, but delicious fresh Alaskan King Crabs. No drawn butter, though, that shit's for amateurs.

That's what I just assumed. So I guess Seth first had the voice and then the animators naturally depicted that voice as Bob Hope?!

The "business" from which they secured the "loan" was a front, a phony company whose listed officers are probably not directly involved with the "organization" which operates through it. That's how most illicit mob operations were set up, concealed behind the facade of a seemingly legitimate business, but also…

I always believed Quagmire was a take off of Bob Hope, but Seth McFarlane has explained that Quagmire is based upon news reporters from the 40's who spoke in that clipped, nasally voice. Maybe Seth doesn't realize he's channeling Bob Hope?!

I don't understand your argument, at all. Who are you saying is in no position to leverage anyone?! Thewlis' character, V.M. Varga, is the sinister dude who has been sent to inform Emmit that he's now "partners" with the mob. The only leverage the mob needs, ultimately, is the threat of physical harm. Varga didn't…

Yeah, I kept wondering why da fuk would he trust that zombie to do anything right, much less a very important robbery. Plus, the robbery would immediately point back to Ray since he just had the confrontation with his brother Emmit over the stamp! I considered that even semi intelligent people under stress make poor…

If Emmit goes to the authorities the mob will kill him, his partner, his family, his dog, his petunias, or all of the above.

The Kafkaesque intro—a man behind the Iron Curtain is falsely identified as a murderer by the totalitarian Soviet authorities, and despite it being an easily disproved accusation he's utterly destroyed by the Infallible Machine of State—had me expecting a much more somber and weighty tone, but no, the opening episode…
