Nah, Kid Icarus 2 was early 90s.

I would love to know what Judd thinks is so different between seeing the clean version of Knocked Up on a plane to seeing it on a VOD service. Is it something to do with the altitude?

They're not representatives of local councils! The word you're looking for is "constituency" and those aren't directly analogous to council areas. If you're going to try and explain British politics to people, actually make sure you understand it.

Canada knows what it did.

Possibly. I like that, counter to people like Stewart and especially Colbert (back on the Report), Oliver has no time for the stupid braying and cheering of the studio audience. I loved the Colbert Report, but it wasted so much time with all the hoopering and hollering. Oliver just carries straight on and if the…

I actually don't mind the Seinfeld finale at all. Given the nature of that show, there was no natural end point or conclusion for it, so making them finally have to face the consequences of being fairly horrible people and forever* lock them into their petty discussions with each other felt right.

I'm not quite at that level, but the finale has left me feeling bitter
about the show as a whole, especially the later seasons. Since
(belatedly) watching the finale, I've only rewatched a bit of one
episode, a good while later, and I couldn't get into properly because of
the after-taste of the finale. I'm hoping…

Agreed. Though I still want him paired up with an even goofier Hercules (maybe played by Liam Hemsworth, just for the hell of it) for a buddy movie.

*Passes out from screaming*

Yeah, he was essentially having a nervous breakdown, which the show barely acknowledges and none of the other characters seem to care about and he's never really allowed to recover from it.

Come on, there's no ambiguity about this: the definitive version of Hitch-hikers is the text adventure game that is nigh on impossible to play.

And the under-rated Lisa Rieffel as Carrie's sister who disappears after a few episodes and is never seen or mentioned again.

The thing about Python that tends to get over-looked is that it wasn't a huge step away from other comedy on in the UK at the time. Most of the cast had done TV sketch comedy before, it was influenced heavily by the Goon Show and Beyond The Fringe, and Spike Milligan was concurrently being just as out there with Q.

Haha. There's a great anecdote in Live From New York, I think by one of the more senior writers, where Franken and Davis had excitedly brought their first lot of cocaine in to the office and before they could get up the courage to snort it, Belushi burst in and hoovered it all up.

He was on SNL in the 70s, so statistically, yeah he probably was.

I pronounce it by slapping my face with my palm. :(

It must be awful, getting into TV networking, dreaming of getting to crush producers' hopes and dreams by canning shows left, right and centre, only to find that you're just too good at making shows to cancel any.

So you were mispronouncing a common word to match your mispronunciation of another word that isn't particularly complicated?

Also, Tom Felton went from being the abrasive (justified) Frank Grimes to Barry's Homer to being a token Brit who just hangs around saying "mate" a lot.

Wonderfalls is the hipster Firefly.
I loved it at the time and this article reminds me that it's really worth a rewatch.
