Honestly, late night band is a dream gig. I've met a few of the guys who do the shows here in LA, and they're generally getting better pay now than they have in 40 years of session work, while keeping the freedom to do more sessions and side gigs. The only thing they can't really do is tour, and the ones I've run into…

Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

He shaves it in this video. That's what the video is about.

The specific issue is that Fox gave them the episodes direct from the DVD transfers, but without any hard coded text - foreign language scenes, location names, even 'the truth is out there' in the opening - anything that would be different for foreign versions of the show is entirely missing.

Have they fixed the hardcoded subtitles yet?

Because Cercei went and made him High Septon, so he's no longer in charge of just the sect, he's the religious leader of the entire country. We saw Joffrey kill a bunch of people, but no one at a level with that much influence and visibility.

Johanssen's going to be in this, but as Buster Poindexter.

Jesus, that couch gag is 2 minutes long - that's like a full 10% of the episode, dedicated to a joke the vast majority of Simpson's viewers won't get.

I think he's trying to get a film career going, so wouldn't commit to a series.

Allegedly, it wasn't a base pay dispute, but a merchandising percentage one.

This would have been devastating in 1997.

Mack giving Coulson the ol' Jaime Lannister Special had me laughing more than I have at anything on TV in months. I had to replay it twice.

"The sad part of that is the illusion wears off so when I watched the show that season, it wasn’t the same. The magic had kind of gone."
Don't worry, that wasn't entirely just because you'd seen it from the inside.

The weird thing is, the show is insanely expensive to make, and I have no idea where the hell that money goes.

It's an expensive show to produce, and rumor is SyFy couldn't afford it, basically. At least, not at the quality level they're going for.

Constantine's production people seem hopeful that the ratings were good enough to get picked up elsewhere (WB owns the show, not NBC), but when was the last time that was actually pulled off successfully? That weird final season of Scrubs?

Most of it doesn't even make sense WITH that context. Particularly Spock's unearned 'KHHAAAAAAAAN!' yell which would have more appropriately been 'ADMIRAL APRIIIIIIIIIIIIIL!', you know, the guy that actually disabled the ship.

The book was basically a sequel to the movie, lots of inconsistencies with how the first novel ended.

There's a screening/cast reunion (including hamill!) in LA this weekend. Can't wait.

And another of his uncles? Malcolm Fuckin' McDowell!
