Many years ago two of my greatest, if not my two greatest, passions united in a music video. I speak of course of Weezer and the Muppets, joining forces for the “Keep Fishin’” music video. Unfortunately, by that time Weezer was already on their way to retroactively ruining the fanatical affection I harbored for them [...]

Need Both a Jumped The Snark & ‘Lost’ Fix?
Been missing Jumped The Snark? Did last week’s divisive, mythology-thick, Lost not do it for you? Well, we have a solution for both maladies (sorta): a new episode of Late! Jumped the Snark may be on somewhat of a temporary hiatus, and by this time next week the story of Lost will be complete. But [...]

LOST: “The Package”
Randy Jackson and I had a similar reaction to this week’s episode of LOST:

Because For ‘LOST’ Fans a Simple Title Card Isn’t Enough
Ever since Seinfeld, opening title sequences have been getting shorter and shorter, culminating in the extreme minimalism of the LOST opening, which is no more than a word and a musical note, and is just about pitch perfect. But although they get a blue ribbon for their short, straight to the point title card, one [...]

48 Is a Top-Notch Number
Because apparently some people find this blog to be full of worth and wouldn’t discover these videos otherwise, here’s the third episode of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon‘s latest opus Late: Creepy good.

Four More Examples of How Jimmy Fallon is Killing it (and One That Shows Why He’s Not)
Talking up the good work that Jimmy Fallon and the Late Night crew have been doing is nothing new on this blog. In fact, we’ve been complimenting their efforts as far back as last Fall. But with the show celebrating its one year anniversary last week, and with the program demonstrating as much creativity and [...]

Thoughts on the LOST Premiere AKA Why LOST Was the Best Show of the Last Decade
I’m not sure if I’m going to make a habit of posting weekly Lost reactions. First of all, there are countless other bloggers who do an infinitely better job parsing the show and its mythology (Doc Jensen, Videogum, Alan Sepinwall, AV Club to name a few) And second, I think I’d rather spend my time [...]

OMG, Hurley Likes To Surf!
Except he likes to work on his extra spicy ranch dressing chicken batter more. The LOST team released another little morsel to whet our appetites before the season six premiere. Coming on the heels of the “LOST Supper” photos, we’ve now be given a second Mr. Clucks commercial starring it’s owner/operator, Mr. Hugo Reyes (the [...]

Bible Imagery! Let the ‘LOST’ Countdown/Takeover of Every Waking Moment of Our Lives Begin!
Ohmigod, I’m going to need freak out control. Well, folks, less than a month until the final season of LOST premieres. I’ll be honest, because the hiatus is now so lengthy between seasons, I hadn’t been thinking about the show too much lately. And, to be franker still, the show so completely dominates my brainwaves [...]

If You Slap Michael Scott, Does He Not Bruise? (Brief Thoughts on ‘The Office’)
And does he not need a Schrute Farms frozen chicken to ease the pain? Well, he might bruise, but he definitely needed the makeshift ice pack. After we argued for the usefulness of the lovelorn Michael Scott earlier today, tonight’s “Double Date” served up another helping of that quixotic Scott, while also mixing in his [...]
