Heya, Bob and all! OK, we're sort of at keyboard attention. We had a convergence of things all at once to deal with including a slightly sliced finger. But all's bandaged and well now. :) |

@glenn I skip it often, but it's usually amusing when I do catch it. Not a huge fan of sitcoms in general, so YMMV. |
![]() |
![]() Glenn, I came home one night to find my kid and her BF making their way through a full-season DVD, and I ended up see two or three episodes. It's fine for a sitcom, and if that sounds like tepid praise to you, you're not mistaken. |
![]() |
![]() Actually, I really dig Parks and Recreation. I was skeptical at first, but it really is darn funny. The last season was a little sappy, but still off-kilter. All available on Netflix. I watch almost all of my "TV" these days online on whatever device is convenient. (My TV teevee is about 15 year old cube which mostly serves as furniture [or to watch PBS]). |

@glenn: I suppose it would be "Bergen" if it were Norwegian. Speaking of the Scands, we saw Bergman's "Summer Interlude" over the weekend and saw Sugarman *last* weekend. It's a delight. |

@glenn I'm sure I've mentioned the greatest tv comedy show ever (only slightly exaggerating), which was ripped off (and never to my knowledge acknowledged) by Ricky Gervais and The Office: Ken Finkleman's NEWSROOM (not to be confused with the other show that ripped off its title recently). @NGH That's excellent news! |

i like the jeff daniels newsroom a lot. i just watched the first season last week. ken finkleman's brother danny did a radio show on c.b.c.- finkleman's 45s. he'd play the hits of the 50's and rant about politics. it was always entertaining. |

@Bob I was hooked to ReSearch books from late 80s on when I came across their Incredibly Strange Films at the local library, and then on purchased much of the stuff they published (even Charles Willeford!). But those Strange Music books are chock-full of fascinating stuff. |

![]() Hi everyone! @Doug re Exotica Project = 5 hours? 5 days! And Danny's Lonely beat even better! exoticaproject.com... :-) I've no TV & often feel horribly culturally illiterate, but at this point the backlog of things I want to watch is beyond overwhelming. Someday I will finish the Sopranos (need last 1 1/2 seasons) and will start/finish the Wire. The Wire seems to be the biggie I've missed. Also have never seen Mad Men or Breaking Bad. HAVE seen every Malcolm in the Middle ;-) |

still b/p:
Hi/bye, all. Back for last word, if I may, on the TV sitcom front: this is no bulletin, but I think one needs to get into a particular zone, a habituated frame of receptivity. For example, folks are mad for The Big Bang Theory, but in the few bits of it I saw, the pacing/beats and the insults and the plots are really far too unappealingly stale and familiar, seen endlessly across decades. Even if they give it the science/nerd personality and the fashionably ever-bluer shades of language & topics, it is easily dismissable in its bad case of rote rot, making me wonder what the Big Bang big attraction is. |
