  1. The American ones get like exponentially better after that point, actually. Like, from the sexual harrassment training episode on. Anyway. As far as the cast goes, David Brent and Michael Scott are practically entirely different characters to me at this point who just share a common archetype. They definitely made Michael much more sympathetic, but I think they did it effectively. I like David Brent more, though, if forced to choose. Jim/Tim is another one where the characters are mostly the same in role more than character. Tim is far superior in the role that it's supposed to be, if that makes any sense, so I prefer him to Jim, but John Krasinski plays the straight man role brilliantly either way. For Dawn versus Pam? Pam by like ten thousand miles. She just... I don't know, does more with the role, it feels like. She's just sort of funnier and she does the serious stuff better. Gareth vs. Dwight, oh god. Both brilliant characters, but I think I still enjoy Gareth more. Like, I think Dwight is funnier in a way, but Gareth is the better character. Plus Mackenzie Cook is a better actor than Rainn Wilson, in my opinion. I honestly think that the American version has the superior supporting cast than the British version, though. Mostly because it has a real supporting cast. Like, Kevin is given more to do in the American version than Keith got to do in the British, and there's nobody in the original as far as minor characters goes who could hope to even touch the brilliance that is Creed. Plus Angela, Stanley, and Toby are all fucking hysterical as well. Chris Finch owns Todd Packer, though.
  2. Gorillaz's massive drop is unsurprising since it'll probably be years before Albarn and Hewlett decide to release something new there. Glad they're still there, though. I haven't heard of some of these bands, but hey, at least "who?" is better than "oh god, not them." And Death Cab in #100 - #90 is a good spot for them.
  3. They've never been on the list. It's criminal.
  4. The Passion of Ruckus is really, really well-done. The sequence with "I Believe In It" by Isabelle Antena (according to Wiki) is just very strong in general.
  5. Well I couldn't find that one. I only looked for the first picture I could get that was a reasonable size. Then you've failed me. Get out of my snarking grounds.
  6. Speaking personally my favorite Pillows image is the one of them slacking off on the couch, though.
  7. *Raises hand.* This is a nice feature. Unfortunately for Sony, what their "counter-attack" really needs to be is like two hundred dollars off the price of their system. Such is life. 'til then, I'm going with the Wii.
  8. It captures most of what I loved about the first three years of the comic. Some episodes aren't that great, but the ones that work work in a huge way.
  9. It was pretty damn beautiful. Brendon Small writes hysterical dialogue, always has. And oh my god, Murderface. Murderface is brilliant.
  10. Dammit, the Ramones didn't make it. Guh. I'm hoping that this year an actual image of The Pillows is provided, because... yeah.
  11. I have You Think It's Like This But Really It's Like This and I fucking adore it. I need to get everything else she has, especially because "Cold Cold Water" is on the following release and that's the song that made me become very fond of her. "Words Cannot Describe," "Engine Heart," and "Sweepstakes Prize" are just three of my favorite songs ever.
  12. I agree that House is overrated, But Veronica Mars is pretty good, There are some episodes that aren't all that great, But most of it is good. As for me, I hate all reality/make over/dating shows. I don't see what the fuss about those shows are. Other shows I dislike are The OC SNL Smallville Grey's Anatomy Scrubs RARGLE RARGLE RARGLE YOU HAVE A DIFFERING OPINION AND I HATE YOU FOR IT RARGLE RARGLE RARGLE.

    Admit It.

    It's not as good as Heathers, but it's still pretty good.
  14. I can't blame the guy for thinking that Lost is overrated, even if I happen to like Lost a lot (though I'm still stuck in season two).
  15. Oh, I forgot; I fucking hate Family Guy. The old episodes are overquoted and the new ones are abysmal.
  16. I think Home Movies is a little bit of an acquired taste. It's that sort of "smart" humor that's either going to resonate with you or it's just going to look like shitty flash animation with characters cutting eachother off all the time. But god, the dialogue is so SHARP and I am a sucker for sharp dialogue.
  17. I just don't find Seinfeld to be THAT funny. Curb Your Enthusiasm is far superior.
  18. Yeah, I prefer that style of humor over the Williams Street style of inane, random bullshit because it's less hit-or-miss. But when it hits, it really hits.
  19. The first couple seasons of Sealab are awesome. After Harry Goz dies it takes a downturn in quality, though.
  20. To be fair, the whole DoA series was good, barring the shameless Beach Volleyball game. I own DoA2 and I thought it was pretty weak. And I played DoA3 and thought that blew too. But okay, something everyone can agree on; it looks about as good as the CUTSCENES in the DoA games are. And THAT is not a compliment.
  21. It looks about as good as the DoA games are. No, that is not a compliment.
  22. He's incredibly hit-or-miss. Kevin Smith directs him well and he was good in Changing Lanes, but that's about it.
  23. I like Matt Damon. He's a good actor. Ben Affleck? Not so much.
  24. As EWB's #1 Pillows enthusiast, I recommend them wholeheartedly. Try to get "Please Mr. Lostman," "Thank You, My Twilight," or "Smile."
