    I have the first two seasons on DVD and they're really good. The cameos are the best you'll ever see. Like when they killed off Burt Reynolds' character who do they get to play his son taking over family business? Fucking Norm MacDonald doing his Burt impression.

    Awesome stuff.
    Goddamnit, why haven't I been watching this show?

    He was so great, too.

    Norm McDonald has been having a weird (if welcome) career renaissance. I attribute it to his awesome appearance on Bob Saget's roast.

    And one of the last few Conan episodes.

    He's touring in the fall, and I think I might try to see him.


    In other news, CBS has a NCIS spin-off staring Chris O'Donnel and LL Cool J.
    Blackman and Robin?

    Also, Larlar is hating on the most recent season of Always Season.

    How does one hate "The Gang Solves the Gas Crisis?" I do not understand.

    "I cut the brakes! Wildcard, bitches!"

    Man, they had a pilot of a sci-fi comedy (Boldly Going Nowhere) that FOX allegedly picked up a long time ago, but I see no news about it at all.

    Also, I wonder whatever happened to ABC's attempt to develop Fables into a show.

    Boldly Going Nowhere is filming. It was listed in Production Weekly a few months back. Not to worry.

    Community Trailer

    It looks pretty cool. And being a community college graduate, I fully endorse it.

    Also, I hope Parks and Recreation gets much better because Rashida Jones and Aziz Ansari are probably two of the best people.

    I'm glad Medium is out because not only is it a terrible show but it's very presence in the schedule is ethically questionable

    CBS is going to cancel generic jerry bruckheimer copshow x and pick up medium in its wake, though.

    So it's only jumped networks.

    If Medium were on the BBC over here you could make a fairly solid attempt to have it taken off the air for contravening broadcasting standards.

    The BBC would be unlikely to commission it. It could canned for lauding a known fraud.

    You're confused about where I'm applying the twist

    The twist in whatever program we're discussing is that it's still horrible

    Which is the opposite of the twist you'd expect, that it isn't horrible

    So if you expect horrible and you get good, you have one twist, one shyamalan

    If you expect the twist but then there's another twist where it's horrible, that's two twists, two shyamalans
