you should also check out Heavyweights, Ben Stiller plays a character that seems like the prototype for White Goodman

Easily Jason Bateman's best performance....even as a huge Arrested fan. So many brilliant lines that of course have been memed, but personal faves (besides the obvious bold strategy one) are (after the blindfold) "He will not be able to see very well, Cotton" and "They're definitely not on the court, Cotton. Their absence is noticeable."

Also not enough props are given to Gary "Bingo Bob" Cole for his ability to be the hilarious straight man in so many damn movies/shows. I think he voices like half a dozen characters on Family Guy alone.

Please god, just say no to Firefly!!! such an overrated and overhyped piece of garbage. One of those shows that got glorified because it was "canceled too early" when in real9ity it was just trash. Also, Alan Tudyk and Tyler Labine in Tucker and Dale vs Evil is a much more worthwhile watch.

I can't help but tell one of my jokes I use on stage because of the Canadian slam. "Did you know that Canadians don't call it "flipping the bird"? They call it "fingering." I swear. I was watching a video and this Canadian was explaining, "He cut me off so I fingered him!" Jesus....you guys are even nicer than we give you credit for.

Also you can not judge Rip Torn's best role until you watch him on the brilliant Larry Sander's show....total brilliance alongside Garry Shandling. That actually was HBOs first breakthrough/prestige original programming. OZ did come before The Sopranos (and also had Edie Falco in it), but Larry Sanders is actually what started them winning awards.

Effin A Cotton. He's really going for it in this one. I can't disagree, he almost steals this movie if it wasn't for Ben Stiller.

Last thing about this movie, the closing song is the amazing punk all-star band Me First and the Gimme Gimmes who have spent a couple of decades brilliantly turning classic songs (from Phantom of the Opera, Leaving on a Jet Plane, and my personal favorite, Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard) into exceptional punk versions while still serving the original songs themselves. Anyway, glad you watched this and it's definitely an underrated movie....

Oh man, it is an epic and foundational show, breaking the fourth wall in absolutely hilarious ways. Basically, Garry Shandling was in the running as a late night replacement in those 90s wars, but he instead decided to make a sitcom abou5t the behind the scenes aspect of how insane a show like that works. He plays himself, in his usual manic, self-loathing, constant affirmation needed state (Rip Torn as Artie). It also has his sidekick, Hank, Jeffrey Tambor, as a sad and wheedling person wanting as much attention as he can get. Then there's the writers room, with many people coming in and out....but the best thing they did was have real famous people come on and perform as themselves and be mocked. For instance, Larry thought David Duchovny was a bit too attached to him and so each time he would have him on it would progress and Duchovney would seemingly fall more and more in love with Larry.....inviting him to a cabin for the weekend, etc. It's an 8.5 on IMD, and I honestly for a sitcom that is rarefied air.....and yet I think it could be even higher.

"Mom..." 😂😂

For me, Rip Torn will always be the bad guy from Beastmaster!

Roland Cooke

That's a very hot take. :D I think the follow-up movie Serenity maybe demonstrates better what the show could (and perhaps should) have been.

The Ocho IS a thing now. Corn Hole tournaments, Corgi racing—it’s a fun channel to watch.🤣 “Thank you, Chuck Norris.” P.S. Severance is a drama and it is freakin’ fantastic. Ben Stiller directs and it a is visually stunning show. Definitely add it to your must-watch lists even if you don’t react to it (although I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of us here hope you do).🙂

I've heard great things about Severance while hearing nothing about it what so ever. My friends who have seen it have all just told me to watch it!

Super disagree with this take, Firefly is fantastic.

I may just be a contrarian a-hole ( can't dispute that completely)....but the show didn't have anything revelatory for me, dialogue, plot, acting, etc. Space smugglers/cowboys....meh. Just think it's so overrated and there are many more worthwhile shows (like DEADWOOD lol) that should be higher on the list.
