can't they subscribe to internet service only? I can do this with TWC.

I agree, and that's why I'm hopeful this will make sense. I'm a Time Warner customer and would love to drop their cable service or at least drop down to their basic package, but it's really basic, I mean it's pretty much like OTA plus a few channels. I'm fairly optimistic that whatever Apple offers is going to be…

the a la carte option would be better, sure, but this is at least better than the current offering for many customers.

I wonder if Comcast will change their mind when they start to lose subscribers at a rapid pace. I'll miss MSNBC, but I would take this deal in a second.

that depends, if it's a flat with $30-40 without all of the cable companies nickle and dime fees on top, this sounds very attractive. The advertised cost of my cable service is $44 per month, but after taxes and fees it's more like $65

"go to college, so you too can afford to be rude to people who serve your food" yeah, that's not what higher education is for.

fuckin hell, autocorrect, you really thought I meant to say Amerivan?

Italian here. I can almost assure you that no one was surprised, we like to yell. An Amerivan friend of mine was in Italy studying abroad and he moved into a flat in Rome shared with a Sicilian couple. He told me when he first moved in and spoke only a bit of Italian that he thought they were arguing all the time, and…

the same. It's a beautiful movie.

that's why I said usually

I wonder how much of that is coming from management and the EP. Apparently they are really hurting in ratings and are considering abandoning their liberal bias. It's debatable how much that bias ever existed in the first place, if you ask me, but this is what I've heard. On the prime time shows? Sure, liberal bias.…

to be honest, I haven't watched the show for a while, but yeah, I used to see her call him out for saying stupid things, I even saw her hit him once or twice.

you would think so, but considering that so many of them replay bits from his show the night before and they keep doing what he's making fun of them for, I'm not hopeful.

he will be leaving the Daily Show sometime at the end of the year.

just the America part.

usually Mika straightens him out when he says something stupid. I was surprised that it was Willie this time that raised any objection. Any why the fuck is Bill Kristol still being invited on?

I had forgotten about the nanny, someone else pointed that out to me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending Pete, I'm just saying the show does a really good job of making me constantly change the way I feel about characters.

Oh, that's funny, I would have thought Joan. I think Joan is the most consistently used and abused character on the show. She got passed over for Harry's job, and they never even considered her for it. She made partner but had to sleep with a client. And even after being made partner they still just treat her like a…

who's that? I've lost the thread now.

the only other role I think I've seen her in was in Love Actually, and it was a very small part. She played one of the girls in the bar when Colin goes to America.
