  1. Better than he ever did Looking like a true survivor Feeling like a little kid He's still standing, YEAH YEAH YEAH
  2. Unfortunately I missed the episode due to moving and not having cable at the time, so I'll have to wait until it airs on Adult Swim As for Meg being the whipping girl of the show, I still think dropping her cherry to Jimmy Fallon was worse punishment than any physical gag Seth could come up with after that.
  3. Are you saying criminals can't enjoy smoothies? You criminalist
  4. I first heard of Scarlett when my communications professor showed us American Rhapsody back in '02. As for LiT being a "hit", I never heard of LiT until the '03 Oscar nominations (in early '04), and of course it got the post-nomination boost in publicity/popularity, but I don't believe it was a big hit when it originally came out in theaters. I'd also have to agree with Y2J's point about LiT's actor buzz centering around Bill Murray, not Scarlett
  5. Seconded. Thirded Plus there's always (naughty) P2P access
  6. I'm curious to see the next HotD, arcade or no arcade, since I'm a big shooting game mark

    ...huh?
  18. But how do you really feel?
  19. Ding ding, especially on the bolded part With the a-ha bit, what I would have done was have the video go like normal for a short while, then just have the soldiers catch up, the music abruptly stop and then the soldiers beat the hell out of the a-ha guy while Chris runs away (and could still come through the eggs at this point). Then you mix a reference with a surprise joke.
  20. If you were on my ignore list, I couldn't respond to your post now, could I I just missed your earlier post, that's all
  21. As far as I know the only people who've expressed negative feelings about the new episodes are myself and Olympic Slam, and before OS's posts this week I thought it was just me. Defenders of the new episodes talk about how "This is the way the show has always been" but I don't believe it. Hell, the gold standard of FG episodes IMO is "Road to Rhode Island" which is reference free and had only one notable cutaway gag (which was then cut away from the episode), relying instead on a very strong storyline. Other favorite old episodes of mine may have had referential gags, but used them to build up the episode rather than just reference for the sake of referencing (e.g. "Let's Go to the Hop." Tony the Tiger doing Judd Nelson from Breakfast Club still gets me). Even my least favorite of the original run, "Mr Saturday Knight" is palatable in comparison with most of these newer episodes. By contrast, I think I've also been one of the only people singing the praises of American Dad. Originally I didn't like it because I thought it was just a derivative of FG. However, with each succesive downhill episode of FG, AD would climb uphill, differentiating itself from FG with good stories and minimal referential/cutaway humor, which Seth said he was going to avoid with AD. The absence of the show the last couple weeks has disappointed me because I needed it to wash the bad taste out of my mouth from FG. Why do people not like AD? Fuck if I know, though it'd be ironic if the reason is because it's nothing like FG
