Tupac, Biggie era of hip hop, I am allergic to Pink Floyd, Animal Collective. I like Arcade Fire and LCD Soundsystem, but I really don't fully get their appeal. Sufjan Stevens, too.

I keep reading the reviews of SP and they all usually seem to be good, yet I have not watched a new episode probably since the one they did on the Somalian pirates. I really have no excuse for this.

Does Ringo's kid still drum for them? He was fantastic on the other tours I've seen him on.

See my comment above…I went to see them after the brief break they took in the tour. Pete really handled the death of John with class.

I've heard the last tour was great. Saw them in 00 at MSG and it was amazing. However, the last time I saw them was back in '02 (ish) and it just was OK. Entwistle had just passed away about 3 weeks prior and Pete showed some real class by introducing the band by saying "I'm Pete Townshend and that's Roger and we are

I sometimes just give my baby Synth Coke….only my wallet knows for sure!

Can we all agree on his opinions of monocles?

True! Actually tape it weekly and barely give it a watch since Schieffer left. Now, Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood, there's a host you can set your watch to!

No mention of David Gregory on Meet the Press? That show turned into a disaster under him and I am not convinced Chuckers is doing much to save it now.

Agreeing to Twitter's ToS is OK by Snowden's standards? I am genuinely surprised.

Don't forget about VOD sales

It really was pretty minimal, but I wasn't familiar with the books, but my friend was, so the appearance seemed to be inline with his personality. Once he whipped out the stamp, I recall the kids being cool with it, but yeah, nothing is worse than an overheated store in NYC.

I should clarify, it often will be the musical guest or I believe the other night he had Kerry Washington—and those types of things I don't mind just watching the next day online or on the DVR. But yes, sometimes the second guest is the better one, and I will stay up. But like last night, I stayed up until the break

That was my breaking point. I could not watch live TV because my DVR kept switching to channels airing L&O. Maybe Snicket is a closet chord cutter.

Also, I'm with you, my DVR is set so there are perpetually 5 episodes on there at all times either from WE TV or ION

Thanks for that, even in my comment below I blanked on her name. ;)

First off, I think the same thing whenever they interview a dismissive witness. Also, I love how the female lieutenant puts them on wild goose chases and they find a witness on the first try. "There must be thousands of people who sell nuts in Central Park." ::seconds later:: "You sure this was the guy?"

True. And sometimes I want the fluff if it is someone I really care to see, otherwise, sometimes I watch up until 12:15 and I am perfectly satisfied.

Last night was probably one of the most Colbert Report-y shows he has done. Over the past two weeks he has done full-on Report type desk pieces. I don't mind it, but I feel the line between him and his old character becomes tougher to decipher when he does these Report type desk bits. I did enjoy the first week

I feel extremely silly because I completely blanked that there was even a premier. It didn't even strike me util 10:59 when I flipped over to CC. I felt the media run-up was light. Didn't see much on Twitter, etc.
