New Left Media - “I’m an American, And I Support a Public Option”

This guy is great. You should also check out his tearing apart of the Teabaggers. He does it in such a polite, non-confrontational, logical way. This guy’s kind of my hero. Jon Stewart, have this guy on The Daily Show.

Some thoughts on the newest It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia: People complained about the heavy product placement, and boy was it heavy, but you know what? I didn’t mind it one bit. I thought it was a hilarious episode, easily better than last week’s. If anything, the product placement shows how brilliant the guys are, because they managed to turn an obvious ad (“If you’re looking for a better steak in an arcade setting, you are shit out of luck.”) into a huge laugh. Also funny: Charlie thinking “Closed” meant “Coors”. But the best line goes to Mac: “I don’t know enough about stars to dispute it.” in response to Charlie’s statement that garbage fumes turn into stars. Also hilarious: “We’re crab people now! We’ll live and die by the crab, we’ll eat off the fat of the sea.” If a show is willing to make me laugh this many times, I will watch no matter how much of an advertisement it becomes.

Go Forth Amercia Levi’s Commercial

This is possibly my favorite commercial ever. According to this post, it’s by the director of the film Sin Nombre, which is supposed to be good, but I have not yet seen. But knowing the director of this directed that, I’m going to have to check it out.

My favorite shot is of the business guy in his office. I don’t know how, but if he could make a black & white film based on this ad, that would be the best.

Also, the poem is “America” by Walt Whitman, who kicks ass (duh). The other, similar but color commercial features his poem “O Pioneers”.

Mad Men - “Guy Walks Into An Advertising Agency” (Ep. 306) Love all the exchanges in this. Don and Joan, Don and Sally, Don and Peggy, Don and Connie, Joan and her husband, Joan and Peggy, Betty and Sally, etc. One of the best episodes of the show. Love the Bob Dylan at the end. I love the expansion of Don and Sally’s relationship this season. It’s my second favorite relationship on the show, after Peggy and Don. Great ‘holy fuck’ moment. “A tragedy with a happy ending. My favorite kind.” “But that’s life: One minute, you’re on top of the world, the next minute, some secretary’s running you over with a lawn mower” “He might lose his foot”_____”Right when he got it in the door” Grade: A

Ok, I have never laughed harder than at the moth joke. Ever. When he just kept adding and adding and it was brilliant.
