Sometimes you have to push the subtextual elements all the way into text so the folks at the back of the room get it.

The earlier pages detailing the endless abuses experienced by impoverished laborers didn’t strike you as being pretty socialistic?
Real talk. He also played on that song “I Touch Myself” as well as many less embarrassing examples. He was a real deal first call studio and touring musician in the 80s and 90s.
He played bass on Richard Marx’s cheesefest mega hit “Right Here Waiting”
And he’s still so much cuter than any of us and all of sexy ladies only talk to him. They look at this crowd and say, “Gross. Give me Steve.”
That’s my instinct as well.
I would absolutely watch an episode where Jackie Daytona goes to a human shopping center to buy pants and Matt Berry repeatedly turns “dungarees” into a 6 syllable word.
“The Office had a much better finale...and I will never intentionally watch any episode from Season 8, or the back half of Season 6.”
This is a smart policy. I usually check out after Scott’s Tots which makes for a pretty dark series finale, but it’s still better than the Sabre storyline or anything that came after.
I remember the universal praise that Pamela Adlon received for her portrayal of Bobby Hill. Does that count?
I read the headline as, “Joe Pesci released a special that’s just him talking over footage of fish and trees, and it’s perfect” and I found that news very surprising.
Bearded Henry Winkler is exactly what Gary Cole will look like in 2035.
Even odder, the source of their animosity is Turner & Hooch.

I don’t know if this is anywhere on YouTube, but I remember there was a short documentary on one of the Lost DVD box sets that followed a single episode through every step of the production process from the genesis of the script to the completed files getting delivered to the network. Every director got a…
“Isn’t that true of all episodic TV?”
Most. It’s basically impossible to shoot 15-20 or more 44 minute episodes of television without working 14+ hour days every day. 22 minute sitcoms are a little less of a slog.
That makes sense. It was a pretty mediocre initial watch.
I had pizza on Saturday. Yesterday was chicken biryani. When did you last eat pizza?
I don’t know who Jonathan Silver is, but this comparison seems true.
Try filing him in your brain as “More Semitic Braff”. I feel like there’s a nice little niche for that mental image.
I can’t bring myself to try to rewatch it. I had already given up on the series after season 7 when it was originally on. I don’t think I’d make it past season 5 this time. I can’t handle the wheel-spinning and receycled jokes. HIMYM should have been 4 seasons and a maximum of 70 episodes.
