I really should have set it to yakety sax

This is me just for the Future's information. I'm Sam's Cool Links. Feel free to ask any questions here!

it's 2016, i guess, you know, whatever.

The guy who won this episode, "Bill," is a family friend of mine! Super neat to see him on the show.

Darling Clementine is a classic, maybe my favorite Ford film, one of the most subtly stunning works of B&W cinematography ever and a script which is simultaneously understated (the ending handshake, one of the all-time perfect movie moments) and overstated (the changes from history the review discusses) but which

Is Murray doing content for TOS (Sorry… T"This"Site) now? Is this a temporary thing?

Cool! No problemo. I changed one of my other shows too — make sure you update my picks. Thanks!! :-)

Replaced American Crime… But State of Affairs is late fall, no? What's the cutoff date?

Trying not to have any overlap with peeps that have already posted… just to see how much new fertile ground for failure I can find…

Nah, nobody on the show ever really gets their day ruined, unless they really, REALLY deserve it. Mostly, Nathan is deconstructing TV by showing how silly people act when they're on-camera. And unlike Cohen, Nathan is always the butt of the joke.

All I could think during the theater part was that while Nathan's plan was absurd, charging a 50 cent "sharing fee" when a group of 2 gets 1 snack, seems like exactly the type of evil/profitable bullshit that a movie theater could get away with… It's a rational idea, elevated to absurdity, which made it all the better.

I looked it up right after the show… The IMDB rating is a 3.9/10, and the only review is from Variety and focuses mainly on how the show is incredibly manipulative, and restages Wolve's investigations but shoots them in such a way that they seem to be actually happening.

The full quote was, "Uh, I don't know that this should be something we keep bringing up, Simon, I'm just concerned why you keep bringing it up, I don't think it's neccesary to talk about it as long as you can do your job."

That's hilarious! …What is that? A cut idea from the show? Something old?

"I have no idea how much I hurt other people's feelings! And I'm the laughing stock of my industry!"

Oh man, this was one of the funniest ones yet. I loved how the show set up the fake reality-show as a possible success by doing the, "My only hope was that my pitch would turn things around" thing…

Hey, Genevive! Glad to see you're still hanging around with us small potatoes here after the awesome Catwoman news! Good luck on that — I'll be reading along, for sure!

Pop TV is an increasingly outdated notion because NOTHING is getting really great ratings any more. However, I'd say that the "top ten chart" equivalent shows which still qualify as "the mainstream" TBBT, TWD, The Voice, Modern Family, Grey's Anatomy, The Blacklist, How I Met Your Mother, and Scandal. Oh, and
