I tried watching the original Office, but I'd already seen the first four or so seasons of the American version at that point, and it just seemed weird. I'm sure it is great,but I just couldn't do it.

How about Fishing With John! It was short lived but awesome.

Archer season 2 starts in like a week!

Honestly, I think adult swim wishes they still had shows like that...

We watched the UK version of the Office before we got into the American one and it definitely has a different feel that I could see people not enjoying as much. I'd personally rather watch the American one, it's more laugh out loud funny I think, but that awkward uncomfortable comedy of Gervais is really good.

Man, I'm happy to say I've watched this whole series.. I got it off a torrent site in the summer and I loved it! That Willem Dafoe episode is my favourite, it's hilarious, but it sure made me want to hang out with Dennis Hopper too!

I'm looking forward to Archer season 2 also! I just rewatched season 1 and it's a great show. I don't like it as much as Adult Swim in their heyday but yeah, AS hasn't been doing much lately!

OK, so this is an old one that I never watched when it aired originally, but The Larry Sanders show with Gary Shandling is hilarious. IFC has been playing it from start to finish lately, man that's a pretty groundbreaking show for the time. Shows like The Office and Curb Your Enthusiasm really owe it to Gary for paving the way! And Hank Kingsley, what more can I say?

I remember that show too but I never really got into it when it was airing... I think I was too young and immature, didn't get it. But yeah, that's a ground breaking show from a really funny guy... season 1 here I come!

Loving Portlandia! It's hilarious!

Anyone catch Dana Carvey on SNL last night? What a surprise to see him on it, pretty cool!

Posted this in the gear forum but thought I'd throw it up here too. I was watching Metalocalypse tonight and saw an ad for the DethKlok Gibson Explorer in silverburst, bound body and neck. Also said the Toki Flying V and Murderface bass are coming up next.

That's awesome. I don't usually like Explorers, but I really dig this one.

I also really like the irony that the sig model for a cartoon metal band is nicer and more subtle than most sig guitars.

I'm right there with you, I've never wanted an Explorer but this one looks sweet as hell. It is hilarious that a cartoon metal band is the best selling death metal act in history and now they're getting signature guitars. Brendon Small is a genius!

He might be a wizard of some sort. Dude has a badass show on tv AND has some serious chops. It's obvious that there is some sort of wizardry and/or deals with the devil going on here :excellent:

I was gonna say the exact same thing about that guitar as you guys... I don't usually like that style at all but that one is cool! That really is a cool signature model, I'd play that sucker for sure!

PS - Trey, what kind of car is that in your avatar pic? I want one of those too, looks cool.
