I can’t tell if his new show will last more than a season, but it was good enough to bring me back for another week. It wasn’t Chappelle’s Show brilliant, but it was pretty good.
I get the sense that Martin is a real person, by which I mean that he seems like he’s being [...]

Um, yeah. Also, there’s this exciting new series called 24 that is so awesome! I hate to be cynical, but this just makes it clear that a show I used to love has not only devolved into merely a long string of gags (although, admittedly, some episodes from this season had a bit of the [...] Compression artifacts look like shit. Unless a clever director is using them as an effect. Whoa. Dude. This is amazing work. Jazz pianist Henry Hey did an outstanding job creating a song out of spoken words. We don’t often think about it, but words have musical pitch (which is obvious to anybody in China, where they use pitch & tone as an integral part of language). Hey used the pitch of George [...] Did Josh Homme produce U2’s new record, or did they just listen to a bunch of stoner rock before they made this. It’s got heavy Homme influence, to my ears. Only it’s not as good. I like Massive Attack, especially the collaboration with Mos Def on the Blade 2 soundtrack. But nothing they’ve done stirs my soul like Teardrop, from 1998’s Mezzanine. Most people know it as the theme from House. I’m glad I heard it soon after its release. It was part of a stream of ambient and dance [...] Just finished watching this extraordinary film. When I was a little kid, I saw Philippe Petit perform at the circus. Just a simple act of crossing a wire at the top of the tent captured everyone’s attention and provoked total silence from us all. A slight Frenchman dressed in black is the singular image I [...] So much. On its surface, it’s a Johnny Jonny Quest parody, but the show is everything I love and find ridiculous about superheroes and adventure series all rolled into one beautiful package. My favorite character on it is Doctor Orpheus, a parody of Marvel’s evil-thwarting thaumaturge, Doctor Strange. No one will find this as hilarious [...] Did I mention the time I almost destroyed my family’s livelihood with one careless match? We were living in Safford, Arizona. My grandfather started a fish farm, and my mom, one uncle, and their families joined him in the venture. I didn’t yet hate Safford. It was still new, I was 13, and we’d moved [...] And it is amazing. Actually, it’s not new, it’s from back in November, but the video is new. Hamster on a Piano fans, take note: In case you didn’t catch the chorus, it’s |
