Today, my only funny bone tickler is the series of Orson Welles segments from The Critic. I have fond memories of watching that, Duckman, and Dr. Katz

I love Rick and Morty, though on rewatching them from the start I'd say the first 4 episodes of season 1 really aren't great. Season 2 and 3 are incredible though. As for the fan base.....urgh. Don't. Same for Adventure Time. Alongside Twin Peaks, Adventure Time is my favourite TV show of all time, and yet if I so much as dipped a toe into any kind of forum populated by fans of the show I'd probably swallow my own f*cking tongue. I actually watched the first episode of Rick and Morty and was like, 'eh'. I came back months later and gave it another shot. It does get a lot better after the first few episodes. I forgot about Adventure Time. It's a show that genuinely makes me feel good to watch. Great show.

Agreed. Everything you said here is truth except the Karen > Pam part. It's a hill I'm willing to die on. Pam might land in my number three spot. Have you ever seen Angela Kinsey's Instagram? Eh. None of them have the ample butt and hips that I like. As for the sake of the story, Pam over Karen.

Here is an idea of the shows I would consider my favorites. Sopranos - Favorite show of all time. I sit down and watch the complete show once a year, every year since it ended. I cried when James Gandolfini died, the only death of a celebrity that has brought me to tears. The dynamic between family and mob boss is what hooks you obviously. But watch the show and you will understand how it saved HBO when it premiered. Ray Donovan - Seriously, everything about this show is great. Liev Schreiber is so amazing in this role and Jon Voight is such a lunatic in the show, you wonder where the line is between reality and fiction. The writing on this show is phenomenal. The Wire - I didn't appreciate The Wire until I watched it a second time through and realized just how much I hadn't paid attention to. The authenticity of this show is unreal. I have had friends who grew in Baltimore who talk about how that show hits close to home for them. Archer - I don't watch animated shows very often. South Park and Beavis and Butthead were the extent of it after I hit my teenage years until I watched an episode of Archer. The obscure references to random things were what drew me in. It was just so vulgar and smart at the same time. Justified - I read the stories this show was based off of long before it came around. When I heard it was based off of Elmore Leonard's works, I got curious. Then I watched it. Between Timothy Olyphant being an absolute badass and Walter Goggins proving he is one of the most talented actors in the world, I was hooked. Outside of Peaky Blinders, I have not found any British shows that hit my sweet spots like those above do. I love The Office, US version. Can't stand the British version. I don't know why, British television to me is the worst. Drakz gives me sh~t because one of my favorite movies is Football Factory with Danny Dyer. I can get into sh~tty hooligan movies so it isn't like I dislike all things British. I mean Legend and Bronson were both amazing but that might have to do with Tom Hardy being in both movies. The Sopranos is my favorite show of all time. Love Justified. Boyd Crowder is my spirit animal.

Bean is awful. Black Adder is awful. Monty Python is awful. Unless it is a British movie about gangsters, football hooligans or it stars either Tom Hardy or Vinnie Jones, I don't watch British shows or movies. Mel Brooks is God. Kevin Smith is God, minus Jersey Girl, Zack and Miri make a porno, and Cop Out. I love Young Frankenstein and Men in Tights.

I accept my fate. All I ask, in place of a last meal, is that I can watch Spice World one last time.

My Wife loves Monty Python. I just don't get it.
Also hate Blazing Saddles and Space Balls.
Young Frankenstein, however, is a masterpiece.

I'll do you one better, not only is Mr. Bean unfunny, but Monty Python.

I've long preferred the portmanteau "accountabilibuddy" ever since I first saw the episode of South Park where Butters is sent off to a Pray Away the Gay camp: I swear, sometimes it seems like I'm the only person in the world that never watched South Park. That's no way to live. Start now.

In the extremely minor update department, new shows have been added to the Upcoming Show Schedule as the WFWF returns to U.S. soil for a west coast tour after the London show. Keep your eyes and ears open for more news after the World Domination Tour concludes. Do we get to hold a show where that cult in Oregon used to live?

It wouldn't surprise me to learn that I've consumed 1,400 Slim Jims in the course of my lifetime. You may want to go vegan to balance that out. I've probably had 200. My family is very white trash. Mountain Dew and slim jims were pretty standard.

Clarify: in one sitting or over the course of your entire life? I'd believe either.xD
I'd imagine in one sitting but then again nobody would attempt to do that, right?
The article I read didn't really specify though.
Trace Demon could do it. He's extreme.

First match back, Shuggy(Bishop).
Second match, Draven(Trace).
I can't tell if I'm being pushed out, challenged, or rewarded.
