"I think he wants a mother."

"Well that's ridiculous.  He's got you, he's got our mother.  You think that would turn him off from the entire concept."

 

"I don't have the milk of mother's kindness in me any more."

"Yeah.  That udder's been dry for a while now, hasn't it?"

 

Oh and maybe my favourite episode yet:

 

"Justice is blind."

 

EDIT:

"C'mon, have a drink, there's some stuff coming up that you might not be able to handle sober."

 

Best. Show. Evar.

 

EDIT:

"He wrote one song that made Joan Baez call him the shallowest man in the world."

 

 

Eight minutes until Arrested Development returns? Anyone with me? 

no dude, i still have to watch all of seasons 2 & 3

Eight minutes until Arrested Development returns? Anyone with me? 

 

We should be starting it tonight after our daughter's party is done and she's sleeping.

Tobias:  "Ah, Valentine's Day, when she..."

(slips on martini, falls to floor)

(from floor):  "Was your mother here?"

 

 

This is easily the cleverest show evar -- moar than Community.  I mean, how many shows can make slapstick into intellectual comedy.  That's fucking fine art right there.

 

EDIT:  S2E10 might be the funniest episode in the history of television.

For those of you who let Netflix skip past the end credits of episode, "Notapussy":

Oh, and I laughed every time they said the character's name, "Bob Loblaw".  Greatest character name, evar.

Watched 6 episodes of House of Cards on the plane yesterday.  Now, I just need to find time to watch the rest!

yes, you do.

 

We finished season one of the walking dead, and watched the season finale of game of thrones.

Tobias:  "...perhaps I should call the Hot Cops and tell them to come up with something more nautically themed..."

Michael:  "..."

Tobias:  "Hot Sailors."

Michael:  "..."

Tobias:  "Better yet, Hot Sea..."

Michael:  (snaps fingers)  "I...like 'Hot Sailors'."

Tobias:  (dreamily)  "Me too."

 

This show just stays so brilliant.  Why on earth was it cancelled!  Yes, yes, I know it was uncancelled, but why was it cancelled in the first place!

What is science?

An empirical study to determine the truth
A gob of spit in the eye of god
Even more of a religion than your thing
All of the above

Bridezillas.  Oddly satisfying.

Science is the search for facts not truth. Especially if you are a Popperian.

Oooh, and that's what we call a Law Bomb.
That's a low blow, Loblaw.
A Bob Loblaw law bomb.

This show is the best.  I can't even type that without breaking into such a fit of giggles that my eyes water.

 

And Jeff's right -- Isla Fisher is hawt.

This show is so fucking brilliant.  I mean, it's a comedy, but they way they have the interleaving storylines from show to show, by changing the perspective, it's fucking brilliant.  And using those repeated music cues -- "Sound of Silence", the Peanuts melancholy Christmas special music...

 

Just amazing.

Le Mans qualifying - it is going to be a very long weekend.... 

Le Mans 24hr race... 

 

RIP -- Allan Simonsen

Yeah it has been a decent race outside all of the cautions. Need to go to sleep but I like the night racing.

Finally finished Arrested Development season 4.  There better be more, that's all I'm saying, that was such an amazing return to form.

 

Started Orphan Black, will probably seek out the rest, ditto Hannibal.

Le Mans 24hr race...

RIP -- Allan Simonsen

This. People forget these guys put their lives on the line. RIP.

Hannibal

 

Fuck, this is good.  Hannibal:  "Next time, please bring your wife, I'd love to have you both for dinner."

 

Also, an exchange between morticians over a set of very grisly homicides:  "Sugar water -- recovering alcoholics crave it."  (directs next statement at fellow mortician)  "Don't take that personally, buddy."

 

Other moritician:  "Oh, I'm not recovering."  and the way he says it, it's like he was, but now he's not.  Ever.

 

And in case anyone doesn't know the premise of the show, this is Hannibal Lecter prequel, before he was found out, so he's a functioning psychologist...with a secret.

Started Orphan Black,

 

Just finished episode 3. Like.

 

The lead actress is amazing.
