When Chevy Chase movies were not on constant repeat in the Campbell household growing up, nothing brought a hearty chuckle to our movie-watching experiences like The Naked Gun. Holy crap, just rewatching these clips reminds me of the specific gags that made my dad laugh. Not surprising, it was the little things like Frank always […]
For whatever reason, the cable movie lords decided to put Boogie Nights back in their rotation, which meant the wife and I watched it about seven times over the course of the weekend. And no scene quite captures the majesty of the film as when Dirk and Reed snort probably a oil drum’s worth of […]
If there is one thing the wife can attest to, it’s my unbridled love for animal humor in movies. And nothing says this as strongly as when Ricky Bobby tried to face his fear and get back behind the wheel of a car. The wife was lucky when we went to see this movie, because […]
I shall certainly celebrate the return of Ferris Bueller this Super Bowl weekend, even if there’s about 30 ways I would make that commercial better and more like the movie while continuing to celebrate a car I will never want to own. But it does give me the opportunity to declare my unbridled love for […]
While we’re a week away from the Super Bowl, we’re deep in the heart of Premier League soccer, which brings me immense joy.

If you don’t know the joys of Mystery Science Theater 3000, then I don’t know what to do with you. It’s a fabulous program that entertained me through much of high school and college. When the wife and I realized our shared love of the show, at least I knew we’d always have Joel, Tom […]
Heard the news this week that Mad Men was finally returning after an almost 18 month hiatus. Got me excited about seeing the Silver Fox back in action, drinking in the office and making hilariously inappropriate remarks. […]
One of the viewing pleasures of my life returns tonight. Season 2 of Portlandia premieres this evening and believe me the DVR is set for “funny.” Been excited for this since they announced the new season. Here’s a clip from the first season that was a solid 8.5 on the funny scale. […]
A bonus Friday Funnies for you. Because it’s Christmas, and if Clark W. Griswold is who I can aspire to be as a grown-up, life will at least be full of adventure, and that ain’t so bad. […]
Suddenly it seems that 30 Rock is on every channel at night, where you can flip from 6-11 p.m. and chances are strong you’ll be able to find the show somewhere. I think it’s replaced Law & Order as the show everyone can’t avoid, and I couldn’t be happier. It’s a genius show. This episode […]
