Remember when Elayne Boosler played Bull’s blind girlfriend on Night Court?  I have nothing else to add to this conversation

When I moved from the east coast to Kansas City I immediately became obsessed with Pizza Ranch and visited it several times. To this day I describe it in great detail to everyone back home, who are all equally fascinated at the bizarre blend of pizza, friend chicken, pioneer imagery, and midtempo Christian pop music.…

Grant’s monochromatic suits from Spiceworld were AMAZING.  That is all.

This is my 73-year-old mother’s favorite show and she was the first person I thought of when the scandal broke. We talked about it this morning and she was very dismayed that Sunday night’s episode had apparently been pulled so she couldn’t watch it on the DVR after church.

Chapo Trap House recently compared Wohl to an Andy Kaufman-esque anti-comic and I’m starting to think it’s the most logical explanation

Scott Van Pelt’s Sportscenter highlights circa the early 2000's were filled with ATHF and Tenacious D references. “Kevin Garnett.... makes the homies say ho and the girlies wanna scream!” 

probably someone spit on somebody’s pants

Wait a minute - Super Bowl XLII was the previous ratings low? The 18-1 game where the Pats were going for an undefeated season? That SB had low ratings? Seems crazy.

When I saw it in the theater I thought the same thing - ZERO HIJINKS. Everything goes off without a hitch. At one point they find out they’ll need a special device to open a lock, and in the VERY NEXT SCENE they just... swing by Rihanna’s sister who gives them the special device. On the way to the heist. Driving five…

Yeah, Revival was in all likelihood going to get a title push right out of the gate, but one of them got injured almost right away and spent months on the shelf, followed by the other guy spending months on the shelf. They never recovered after that.

While it remains to be seen how much Tony Khan knows about the wrestling *business*, he apparently is a HUGE wrestling fan. Like used-to-post-on-message-boards-in-the-90's-and-wrote-letters-to-the-Wrestling-Observer style superfan. If anything, it’s almost the opposite problem - can you really run a wrestling…

I think the problem is that the outcomes of both conference championship games were such bummers. Everyone was hoping the Chiefs would beat the Patriots, and the no-call left people with this gut feeling that the Rams didn’t deserve to be there.   A Pats-Rams Superbowl that arrived via a different and less agonizing jo…

Does anyone there have a favorite Colecovision game? (Venture!)

What exactly is the Steelers’ play here? Brown is under contract on an enormous deal with a salary cap number that makes him virtually untradeable or unreleaseable. Plus, we don’t even really know what Browns’ issue with management is.  It’s not a contract dispute like with Bell.  Does he even have ‘demands’ that the…

What a great writeup. I have fond memories of going to computer shows with my dad circa 1987 or so. It was where we bought our first PC. We bought tons of floppy disks with handwritten labels that were filled with 20-30 shareware games - many of them duplicates with a different filename. I played those constantly…

I mean, isn’t reading books how people are supposed to do the research?

Where in the world is Kimpossible Sandiego.

As an Eagles fan, I’m going to be really bummed out when the Giants sign Nick Foles.

I never saw the movie, but I always assumed that part of the reason is was such a flop is that the title suggests we’re supposed to already know who Ecks and Sever are, and be excited for their epic showdown. If it was just called ‘Ballistic’, it would probably just be lumped in with any number of largely-forgotten 00'…

Virtually every Atari game is completely inscrutable without the manual. Most games were so primitive they didn’t even have menu screens, let alone tutorials. Even easy-to-understand games like Space Invaders had multiple game modes and zero explanation about them. Some games like Combat or Air & Sea Battle had like…
