i've watched 'silly little game', 'catching hell', and 'small potatoes'. thinking about watching 'the real rocky' next, but what other 30 for 30's would you suggest? (not going to watch 'the u').

I watched The Real Rocky a couple nights ago. It's a great episode--Must see. I hadn't heard of Chuck Wepner before. But his life really was a real-life version of Rocky. He even was a loan shark collector. And when Wepner got his big break he took Ali 15 rounds before the ref stopped it with just a few seconds to go.

it was a good one. i have kinda gone on a espn films bender. 'small potatoes' is probably still my favorite, but 'run ricky run' and 'the best that never was' were both really good. 'silly little game' is a close second. i like 'winning time' but it was not as compelling as many of the others.

I'm watching "The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret"

It's pretty funny. If you like David Cross and Will Arnet from Arrested Development, this might be your thing. There is only one season on instant though.

I love David Cross, never heard of this but I'll check it out.

I reached my quota for positive votes, but David Cross is one of my favorite comedians from the last 15 years or so. His work on Mr. Show and his older stand-up routines are legendary. I actually haven't checked that out, GSG. Gonna have to give it a look for sure. Been watching a little Portlandia. It can be pretty solid, and I'm only 2 epi's in. Only 6 or so total on Instant though.

Do you guys watch Modern Family? People tell me it's funny, but I'm kind of annoyingly picky when it comes to shows that I like. Just wondering if you guys think it's worth renting the DVDs on Netflix and watching the series.

This bit was like 8 years or so before Miracle Whip tried to "hip" up its product, and every time I saw one of those ads I always thought of it. (Linked but not posted, couple f bombs.)

EDIT: Never mind, I can't seem to figure out how to post the link without the actual video. It was David Cross on advertising to teens. Hilarious.

Modern Family is a great show, very funny and safe to watch around the kids. Plus Sofia Viagra is nice to look at.

Hulu Plus has them all for streaming, 8 bucks a month.

I rely on Netflix and Hulu Plus for all my TV viewing, only subscribe to cable when Football season starts.

Breaking Bad has a very, very good chance to go down as the greatest show of all time when it's all said and done.

If you haven't started watching...now is as good a time as any.

it is a great show. (the most recent episode was awesome). i still like 'mad men' more and 'the wire' is the best piece of entertainment ever.

 
Extract. Classic Mike Judge style movie. Not as good as Office Space, but Jason Bateman stars and his acting style is perfect for Judge's comedy.

Did you like it? I was pretty bored throughout the whole show

I did like it, the first part of the movie was a drag but the end was pretty good imo. Not a big fan of the girl they had in the movie, they probably should've gotten a hotter one for that part.

You talkin about Carey Mulligan? She's different looking that's for sure. I'd probably still... ya know.
