Check it: Splitsider’s best sitcom episode tourney

Good stuff over at comedy site Splitsider. Three episodes immediately come to mind for me:

#3: Seinfeld, “The Marine Biologist” (Obvious.)

#2: Arrested Development, “Ready, Aim, Marry Me” (Key quote: Uncle Jack’s “To the nuts!”)

#1: The Office (BBC), “Training” (“Free Love Freeway” … “There’s been a rape up there!” … “Two lesbians, probably. Sisters. I’m just watching” … I could go on. Best episode of the best comedy ever. Easy #1.)

I’m sure I’ll think of a ton more but those are my top-of-mind favorites. Best sitcom episode ever: what say you?

Kristen Bell: a charming emotional wreck

Since this is the internet’s #1 resource for news about both Kristen Bell and sloths, it is my duty to show you the video below.

Not sure what the photo is supposed to signify, Refinancing Ad, but you officially have my attention.

The Riff, ep 31: “The No Fudge Club”

This week’s episode of The Riff finds the bros discussing JoePa, a horny pastor, cover letters, booze, the No Cussing Club, a rousing game of Name That Drug, cancer cures and the requisite 20 minute Wolves chat. ‘Twas a good talk, have yourself a listen.

The Riff, ep 30: “Violent mating battles”

Discussed in this week’s Riff: bungee jumping, a crazy Valentine’s Day event, hangover cures, Greece’s pedophilia sympathy, cruise ship disasters, bros, turds, Tebow and your weekly dose of Wolves talk. Another fun one. Give it a listen and spread the gospel, friends.

Direct download here, or you can find us on iTunes.

The Riff, ep 29: “Bros and turds”

Tony, Ryan and I talk David O. Russell, Facebook pranks, a Papa John’s racism kerfuffle, some random nonsense and a whole lot of Wolves: specifically the last three games, potential trades, how to improve the team, an argument over DWill, free agent prospects and, yeah, more drooling over Rubio. Fun one. Have a listen.

Dave Holmes nails it yet again

As always, Holmes is the absolute best.

If Michele and Marcus Bachmann did not exist, and you were to write them and their adventures as fiction- as a spec pilot, say, or a series of sketches in your weekly ”How ‘Bout Those Headlines” show at WackyTeamz or whatever- the one note you would consistently get would be: “Lose the doggy sunglasses bit. It’s a little on the nose, don’t you think?” Your mother would tell you this. “Dude’s closeted. Message received. A real person would never behave this way. Dial it back.”

But they are real, and they did behave this way- live, in front of millions of people- and it made Ben and me laugh so hard we frightened our own dog.

God bless America.
