@Austin_Dern That reminds me, there's a full episode of Spike Milligan's Q5 out there-- the show that legendarily made John Cleese afraid Python had been beaten to the punch-- and I still haven't sat down with it.

@xinjinmeng @Phorm My term for that sort of ADR trickery is "falling down into some butterscotch."
re: media question
@xinjinmeng @Phorm Wow, I think you've just called out about 70-80% of my favorite neo-noirs and "prestige" dramas...

@KinkyTurtle "What did we learn, Palmer?" I should watch that one again, it's one of the few Coen Bros. films I haven't seen multiple times.
re: media question
@Austin_Dern Oh, I've heard of the Bed-Sitting Room, never seen it!
media question
What would you consider the most "difficult" comedy you've ever watched, for any given definition of "difficult" or "comedy?"
(I'm thinking about the subject because I'm about to start my fourth attempt to get into The League of Gentlemen's "Psychoville." It's one of those series that I keep hearing is rewarding but makes itself real difficult to love...)
@Leucrotta Is this one of those "next thing in the sequence" tests?
@hystericempress I... I'm like a cross between Gene Belcher, Buster Bluth, and Dwight Schrute. D: But at least I'm aware of it!
@Leucrotta my brain keeps wanting to transition from this tweet to crispin glover's legendary rant as he nearly booted david letterman n.n;
@Leucrotta Which reminds me that I have the ENTIRE FUCKING SERIES RUN of the Frantics radio show and really should figure out somewhere to dump them someday.
They are very very... Canadian, which is to say very mild and middle of the road and much of it has not aged well at all. But there is some quality Ti Kwan Leep-grade material.
@Leucrotta And one for Jenny and the wimp?
re: personal heroes, song(?), nostalgia, the new wave
also i feel that
"Close your eyes! (OK)
Now imagine you're at the most wonderful party. (OK)
Delicious food. (Uh huh.)
Interesting people. (Mm hmm.)
Terrific music. (Mn hmmh.)
Now open them! (Oh no.)
Well, I just want to go home now and walk the dog."
is a pretty good koan

i am gonna miss laurie so fucking much when she's gone
mst3k, music
OK, I may have said this before, but this is actually a hell of a good classic Motown track, especially given how awful Catalina Caper was...
(The singer, Mary Wells, was actually a pretty damn credible vocalist. I think her biggest hit was "My Guy?")
