>the brief, stunning Henley Royal Regatta scene of The Social Network was almost completely created via CG.

The first episode was a C+. Episode 4 was at minimum an A-. There's something special about this impression and the way this show is taking advantage of it.

Tagline for both movies: The Mist Is Happening.

Twice!

...what did you say

It was a Guinness World Record attempt. The fact that it was both available to the public and pretty tasty was just gilding the lily. And Scotties' is awesome.
