I’m not clicking a link. I’ll just assume he’s a very interesting fellow and the stories were delightful. 

Raul Esparza’s reading of “Under the Dome” was delightful. 

Yeah, I thought the book was dreadful, and particularly disappointing as a continuation of The Shining. 

Brilliant. 

I thought the books were all pretty solid, but yeah, do I really have to hunt down a new network to watch this?

The only way to get a normal cheeseburger is to order a Happy Meal. 

My Brilliant Friend is the best thing I saw on TV this year, beating out several other exceptional shows.

Awesome, it’s not like I was hoping to catch anything at ten o’clock. 

Roger Sterling hosting a chummy client meeting looks a lot like Joe Scarborough hosting a chummy episode of Morning Joe.

That’s how my wife acts in public. 

I stayed away from “It’s a Wonderful Life” until I was well into my 20s because I thought the title was horribly cheesy and thus the film would be really sappy, like a mid-century musical. 

The brilliant Norm McDonald seems to have conservative leanings at times, and I never know what to make of it. But I also know that Canadian conservatism isn’t the same as US conservatism.

If real life was like TV, I would have had a dozen workplace affairs by now.

Dire Straits “Brothers in Arms” opened with So Far Away/Money for Nothing/Walk of Life and then 6 really boring songs to close out the album.

That’s brutal. Wonder what was wrong with just having co-champs come back the next night.

The drummer on the greatest tour in rock history. Not bad.

The inability to tell jokes about gays, chicks and Mexicans is killing us!

If Table A is pounding down beers, and Table B is only drinking water, I’m pretty sure Table A gets treated better. They’re more lucrative.

Stuff like this is fascinating, and it makes me wonder what the original show Bible looked like. We would have followed Walt’s story arc from frustrated teacher to drug kingpin without any of the Jesse or Hank stuff. What and who was going to replace that? I admit I would have loved Tuco sticking around for a few more…
