When did Conan play the victim last night? He opened with a very funny bit about the move from NBC - and how could he not? He opened his monologue with a couple of jokes about it - and how could he not? That's all I remember from last night, and I'm sure he never mentioned Leno. I think it's safe to assume after this week, there will be no more NBC jokes.
Thanks for these recaps, Gabe. I've never seen an episode of Top Chef (or True Blood or Gossip Girl - not that I'm superior, just that I choose to watch other dumb crap), but I think I've gotten beyond the maximum amount of possible enjoyment that this show could give me just from these recaps. Bravo.
ps. Any plans to recap Outlaw starring Jimmy Smits? It looks GREAT.
The only problem with throwing all the kids in the river is 4chan will track you down and shame you on the internet. You just can't get away with stuff like you used to.
I have to mostly agree, wert. I want so desperately to love this show, and it at times is genius, but most of the other times, I have difficulty getting through an episode. I don't want to speak for everyone who loves it, but I'm going to go ahead and do it anyway and say that those who profess to love it are doing so because of the "edginess," not because they legitimately get entertainment from it. Because if you don't love a show that says "pussy" on basic cable, you're automatically not cool.
I just saw The Box this weekend - Cameron Diaz's "southern" accent is unbelievable. Not just the fact that it's so bad it makes her sound mentally handicapped, but that a) the movie's set in Virginia, not exactly the deep south, and b) no one else in the movie seems to be attempting a southern accent.
