Mark Brendanaquitz is underrated.

But he expects people to actually pay for things that they consume. WITH MONEY!.

Count me in as another '90s teenager from Indiana who loved the shit out of "Rent". Growing up in a small, backward town, I'm glad that "Rent" expanded my worldview. I ended up traveling the country during my sophomore year performing an AIDS-awareness play at high schools, and I'm sure I could trace that back to

Geez, Leslie Knope is really bad at her job.

Hoosiers represent!

Is it safe to assume that Taran Killiam was in this because Steve Carell was unavailable? It seems like it's supposed to be "The 'Anchorman' guys do 'Brasky'".

Then you're not going to the right places. I moved to Indy over the summer, and it's actually a pretty fun city if you know where to look.

Uh, I take it you overlooked the fact that they have JOHN DILLINGER'S CAR right there in the airport. Yeah, I thought so.

This reminds me of when Fountains of Wayne got nominated for Best New Artist for their third album—eight years after their major-label debut.

That stupid song got a million ACA nominations, which is embarrassing for country music. If one of the best songs of your genre is a note-for-note cover of a song that's less than a decade old, you have some problems.

For all of the crap that the Grammys rightfully receive, their nominations seem to have gotten better in recent years. There are fewer laughably bad nominations (ex. The Black Eyed Peas' "The E.N.D." for Album Of the Year in 2010). Either that or I've just gotten worse.

"Watch old Nickelodeon programming well past the age you are allowed to drink."

This makes me really want a new Girl Talk album.

If you didn't like the pilot (and I didn't), I highly recommend that you give it a few more episodes. It has really grown on me. Like a lot of TV comedies, it needed time to evolve, and it's better when you get to know the characters better.

It has sex, lies, puberty, betrayal, relay races. MILF Island reflects the drama of the human experience, and isn't that the essence of art?

Who?

"Trophy Wife" is good. However if half of a characters—the daughter, the best friend, (sadly) the Marcia Gay Harden—magically disappeared, it would be much better. The weird sons and Michaela Watkins are wonderful on this.

All that I know is that I ate at an Applebee's filled with Collective Soul memorabilia while driving through Georgia. My waitress was annoying with my Collective Soul-related questions.

For what it's worth, Collective Soul has been pretty vocal about NOT being a grunge band. They're from South Georgia and preferred southern rock to punk rock. After the explosion of Nirvana and Pearl Jam, the record labels were throwing flannel shirts on everyone and marketing them all as grunge. It happened to

"Sick of Myself" is still a really terrific song. It holds up.
