Yeah, it was pretty funny. He talks a lot about the comedian world. It's called "When The Balls Drop"

ilikeplanets · 02-19-2018, 11:07 PM

of course it is

i need something to read during the move from Washington to Oregon though

fuzzyroes · 02-19-2018, 11:14 PM

If you're a fan you'd probably enjoy it. But there's endless better celeb memoirs out there. I just read Patty Schmels book. It was amazing. If you ever need a little inspiration on your continued path to sober living then you should really check it out. It's definitely motivated me to get sober... Very relatable book for us alcoholics or addicts out there.

Stiller is incredible on Seinfeld

i don't know that is, to be honest. but i rarely turn down inspiration!

She was the drummer in Hole at their peak. There's also a documentary under the same name (Hit So Hard) which is great, but the book is so much more in depth and personal. Really couldn't put it down. It's rare to see such straight-forward honesty in books like these.

Hell yeah. The scenes where George is living with his parents are some of my favorite of the series.

MarquisInSpades · 02-20-2018, 03:29 AM

I think I should start watching Seinfeld

fuzzyroes · 02-20-2018, 03:29 AM

The missing TV guide, George selling his clothes, George getting laid in their bed... Too good.

Oh dude, you haven't seen it yet? You should definitely do it!

Start with seasons 4-6. Some of the earlier seasons can seem a little stylistically dated to new viewers and that can be a little hard for some to get past and the last 2 seasons don't have the primary producer/writer (Larry David from Curb Your Enthusiasm) on board so the content isn't as good on those.

MarquisInSpades · 02-20-2018, 03:32 AM

Sweet, will do! You watch Silicon Valley?

MarquisInSpades · 02-20-2018, 03:33 AM

But wait, won't I be missing a lot if I go straight to season 4?

fuzzyroes · 02-20-2018, 03:37 AM

Ehhh, there's not a whole lot of back story needed with Seinfeld... I guess all you'd need to know is that Jerry and Elaine used to date and they were kind of on again off again in the earlier seasons.

Yeah man, I love Silicon Valley... One of the few new shows that I make a point of staying up to date with.

MarquisInSpades · 02-20-2018, 03:38 AM

Haha nice. TJ Miller left though.

He's not gonna be back for season 5. No more Erlich Bachman!

I love the show a lot, even more so because I code myself.

fuzzyroes · 02-20-2018, 03:41 AM

Are you shitting me?!? Why'd he leave!?

That's gonna throw a wrench in it I think. I saw a new trailer, and I didn't even notice he wasn't there lol. It seemed like Ginyang was more prominently featured though, I guess he's gonna slide in for a bigger role now?

MarquisInSpades · 02-20-2018, 03:45 AM

I guess so? But the chemistry between Yang and Erlich was dope. JIAN YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG!

I am super bummed he left. I think there's something more to it. TJ has just been playing it off as "oh, my character isn't that important anymore anyway, the show will go on, I want to do my own thing". I don't buy it. It might have to do something with those allegations of sexual harassment, I think? Fucking hate it when that happens.

Seriously though, one of my favorite characters on the show. Just hilarious. It genuinely sucks he's leaving, I'd give anything to have him back for the fifth season.

MarquisInSpades · 02-20-2018, 07:48 AM

have you seen the show yet

LaBelle · 02-20-2018, 07:51 AM

MarquisInSpades · 02-20-2018, 08:00 AM

Oh, you should, it's excellent.

Erlich screams "JIAAN YAAAAANG" a lot, so...
They're 4 seasons in so far. It's hilarious.

FlamingGlobes · 02-20-2018, 06:28 PM

The Big Bang Theory fucking sucked from day one. Watched the pilot and assumed it would've been cancelled within 6 weeks.

Never underestimate appealing to the lowest common denominator.

And yes, I realize no one is talking about TBBT but I had something to say, so fuck you!

reprise85 · 02-20-2018, 06:32 PM

I've never seen more than a few minutes, but my neuropsychology professor always talked about for some reason. He really, really likes it

FlamingGlobes · 02-20-2018, 06:33 PM

It's a great TV show for people who buy their wardrobe from the graphic Ts section of Target.

I'm telling you, you gotta watch the right episode to suck you in. I had a couple friends who said they hated it, and they too had only seen some clips here and there, so I pulled out my box-set and played a few episodes and they both laughed their asses off.

It's stupid, old sit-com humor, but it's good for a lot of dumb laughs. It's no surprise that it's made by the creator of 2 and a Half Men.

Walmart has a dope graphic tee section. I bought a Boston and Nirvana shirt there.

Dude, I never even heard anything about any sexual harassment and him... That's whack.

I'm pretty sure the new season of Baskets doesn't have Louis CK involved either, cause all of the sudden the writing and content just fell off of a cliff.
